    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    The racket is highly praised for its excellent speed performance despite being an outer carbon blade, though opinions vary on its difficulty to handle and weight. The excellent compatibility with sticky rubbers and the outstanding ball retention and flex despite being outer carbon are recognized as its greatest features.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Excellent hitting feel and ball retention despite being outer carbon
    • Exceptional compatibility with sticky rubbers
    • Easy to combine speed and spin
    • Suitable for fine techniques like touch shots and blocking
    • Requires familiarity before mastering and not recommended for beginners
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveDespite being outer carbon, it has wonderfully pleasant hitting feel and excellent ball retention, making it easy to produce both offensive and defensive shots. Small techniques and touch shot handling are supreme, making it ideal for precise, controlled play.
    ▽ CriticalIf you expect the classic Acoustic feel, you won't find that ball retention quality in the carbon version, and its significant hardness and weight make it difficult for players without strong technique to handle effectively.

      I switched over from the Iolite
      With short pips on the forehand, it grips the ball incredibly well, and even though it's an outer-carbon blade, the ball release felt just right. It still retains some of that wood feel, so it's easy to use with short pips on both forehand and backhand.
      Also, on the backhand it was easy to both drive and meet the ball, so I thought it was an all-round blade.
      The Iolite released the ball faster and didn't vibrate in your hand as much when you hit, but it was also faster in terms of speed.

      Apple star (Experience: 11〜20 years) Absolutely the best!!

      Player reviews

      Mine weighs 90g. Just like everyone says, it flies! It's bouncy!!
      But the feel is addictive!! I wouldn't recommend it for beginners. You might not be able to handle it well... When you want to send the ball flying, give it a good swing and it whooshes right off. Blocking works well too - the blade forms a solid wall and doesn't get pushed around by the opponent's speed or spin. It's like, "wow, a blade this good existed!" And it looks great too!! I don't think you'll regret using it... Please give it a try!!

      Before concealment (Experience: 4〜5 years) Really good

      Player reviews

      These are my impressions from borrowing it from a friend. I heard it was an outer-carbon blade, tried hitting with it, and it's incredibly easy to put spin on. Most outer-carbon blades are hard to spin and release the ball too quickly, but this one grips the ball while still generating speed. I might get one of these myself.

      It's incredibly bouncy. It's also a blade I'd recommend to unorthodox attacking players using things like long pips. Fastarc G-1 is the best choice for the forehand.

      The feel is amazing, no question!
      The moment you hit the ball you can tell it's a great blade. The gold on the grip end looks nice too. As you'd expect from Nittaku's flagship blade.
      It flies. But that doesn't mean it lacks spin, and it's easy to flick with too!
      It's a really great blade.
      Short pips rubber works great on it too.
      Especially when paired with this DNA PRO H,
      there's really no other word for it than "the best."
      Buy the Acoustic Carbon and the DNA PRO H
      together as a set.
      Your game will get 3x better.
      Short game - easy to do
      Arc on the drive - average
      Blocking - takes some getting used to, but fairly easy once you do
      Feel - hard, but satisfying to hit
      Durability - a bit fragile, side tape is a must

      It's really bouncy. If you're not used to it, you won't be able to handle it. But once you're used to it, it turns into a monster. You can do pretty much everything - drives with good ball-holding, punchy meet shots, thin-grazing techniques. When you hit hard, the ball flies out in that straight-line way typical of carbon. I thought it was a blade for advanced players.
      I'd recommend it to people who want speed and stable attacking play, or who want to use an outer-carbon blade.

      I have tacky rubber on my forehand. Even when I back off the table and hit with the forehand, it still bounces well.
