    • Suitable for beginners through advanced players
    • Particularly user-friendly for close-to-net techniques
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveA perfectly balanced chop racket with excellent defense and attack. Both forehand and backhand chops cut and suppress well, while attacks deliver sharp drives. Recommended for all levels from beginners to advanced, there's no reason not to choose this racket.
    ▽ CriticalThe hitting feel is hard and thin, sounding cheap. Lacks gripping sensation and is not pleasant to use. Requires pairing with softer rubbers for better compatibility.

      Player reviews

      As a chopper, this is the first blade I've used that grips the ball this much. I used to use bouncier blades like the Joo Se-hyuk, but once the plastic ball came in I started prioritizing spin over bounce, so I switched to the Koji Matsushita. What I noticed using the Koji Matsushita is that the blade really grips the ball. Spin comes on naturally, so I think it's easy to handle even for beginners or women. This time I used Mark V XS on the forehand, and I think it chops well even with tension rubbers. Personally though, I think a high-bounce rubber suits it better since it keeps the bounce in check. The one downside of the Koji Matsushita is the grip - the ST grip has a fairly distinctive shape, so it'll be a love-it-or-hate-it thing.

      Fukutaka Anyway stability

      Player reviews

      I think this is a classic blade for chop-based players.
      It's incredibly stable, above all. A blade that's good whether you're defending or attacking.
      The grip is on the shorter side and feels good in the hand, with the weight balanced toward the tip, so it's a well-balanced blade. I'd love for chop-based players to try it at least once.

      Chopping is just plain easy with this.
      And it's great that you can play both close to the table and far back. Choppers should definitely give this a try.

      Bisukaria Pretty good···!

      Player reviews

      I like the feel of this blade. I don't like a blade feeling too hard, and this is just right for me. I think the hardness or softness of the feel really changes how you play, so for me it's a pretty important factor. There's no technique that feels awkward to use - I'd say it's a blade with no bad habits. What's also impressive is that attacking shots come out with normal speed, but chops don't fly too fast and come back stable and controlled. I'm not a chopper, but the ball lands on the table just fine for me. It has more bounce than the Butterfly Extar, so it's easy to attack with, but it doesn't bounce when you chop. I'd say this is a blade that fits today's chopper playing style well.

      Okkun (Experience: 4〜5 years) I use to attack

      Player reviews

      I used it for chopping for a while, but my impression was that it's hard to keep the ball under control. Maybe it's about the sweet spot, but the way the ball flies is really inconsistent. It's suited to full swinging chops, though. Pushes are easy to do!

      For attacking, the ball holds on the racket a bit too long, so you kind of have to force it in to get it to fly. It doesn't have much bounce, so blocking is easy. Serves seem to bite pretty well too. Just think of attacking as a bonus feature.

      I bought this just to try it out.
      I had OX rubber on the backhand, and it works perfectly fine even without chopping.
      Unfortunately I'm not a chop-based player, so I can't really speak to the chopping itself, but this blade was great whether you want to defend with your backhand or attack with your forehand.

      Inner Force (Experience: 4〜5 years) Racket Is for the cut?

      Player reviews

      I only borrowed this and tried it briefly, so I'm not sure how useful my opinion is, but since it's a chopping blade, chops are naturally easy - but attacking is easy too, and I think it strikes a great balance between offense and defense at a high level. Every kind of shot feels easy, and even though I'm not a chopper, it made me want one. Control is also easy, and you can handle the short game well too, so no complaints. I really think choppers should buy this.
