    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.

      My blade weighed 88g, but after absorbing some moisture it went up to 90g.
      At 90g it's heavy, so I struggled a lot with rubber choice.
      The feel is hard and it bounces quite a lot.
      The snap-back was really good.
      Personally, I felt like I wanted a bit more flex.
      Since it's heavy, the power and spin on your shots are amazing, but if you don't keep it within a weight you can actually swing comfortably, it'll hurt your shoulder.
      So I think it's good to use a relatively soft, lighter rubber on the backhand.
      Personally I like harder rubbers on the forehand, so I'd recommend something like G-1 or Tenergy 05.
