: TSP Swat has been among the top-selling blades in Japan for many years. This is why we decided to design an ALL variant on this basis. The new, slightly thinner 5-ply structure optimizes the well-known great feel of the TSP Swat and provides for significantly higher control. The Swat 5 is ideal for spin-oriented allrounders relying on excellent control and great feel. With a low weight of only 78g, the Swat 5 is also the first choice of players looking for a handy and light ALL blade with a convincing cost/performance ratio.

■ Representative Voices

▲ PositiveA well-balanced, versatile racket that handles basic techniques like drives effectively. The feel is just right, and virtually anyone can use it.

▽ CriticalLacks speed, so players prioritizing speed should consider regular SWAT or SWAT Carbon instead. Performance-wise, similar-class options exist from other manufacturers, making its positioning ambiguous.

Tenaji lovers (Experience: ２〜３ years) Easy to use!

Countering is easy too, you never feel late on your swing against your opponent's ball, and your drives land with a really satisfying feel. Recommended for beginners.

The feel when you hit the ball is great. It's easy to control and your topspin drives land wherever you want. As for rubber, it pairs well with tension rubbers — Tenergy if you're going Butterfly, Fastarc if you're going Nittaku, that kind of thing. A high-spin rubber is especially good on the forehand.

Avenida (Experience: ４〜５ years) Every stroke is possible

The regular Swat has high performance and is easy to control, but the 5PW is the Swat I'd recommend for players who like 5-ply blades. Performance-wise it's almost the same as the regular Swat.
