    Special material racket that boasts outstanding cost performance

    Achieve a low price while a carbon racket. While having sufficient momentum is also excellent in operability, it is also recommended for players to challenge for the first time special material.

      Muramatsu-style cutman (Experience: 2〜3 years) Recommended as your first carbon racket.

      Player reviews

      A teammate of mine is currently using this.
      Personally, it didn't really suit me. Also, even though it's a special material blade, it doesn't seem to bounce all that much.
      My teammate has tacky rubber on it, and I'd recommend that setup for people with a fast swing.
      For people with a slower swing speed, I think tension rubber would feel better.

      I'm hooked on table tennis!! (Experience: Less than a year) The feel is insane

      Player reviews

      This is my impression from trying a friend's racket.
      Maybe it's partly the rubber, but the feel when hitting is intense - almost like a bouncy, hollow "pon-poka" kind of feel.
      Even though it has carbon in it, it didn't produce that much speed. But in exchange, it's stable. I think it's a good choice as a first carbon racket.

      This was my first carbon racket, and as a first one it's really easy to use. That said, I don't think it suits advanced players.

      Table tennis nut (Experience: 2〜3 years) This is cheap

      Player reviews

      Right now I use the Jun Mizutani Super ZLC, but this Arylate Carbon that I used to own is really cheap!
      For a carbon blade, the rebound feels a little weak. That said, I think it's a great fit for beginners (people who just started table tennis) or anyone picking their first carbon blade!
      For people who feel expensive rackets like the Timo Boll ZLC are a bit much, I think this is ideal.
      That said, if you put on a rubber that doesn't have much bounce, this racket becomes hard to use! That's just my impression though!
      I think rubbers like Tenergy, Rakza, or Omega go well with it!

      Like a March Wind (Experience: 2〜3 years) Decent enough, I guess

      Player reviews

      I picked this as my second racket.
      It's a carbon blade, but it doesn't bounce all that much.
      That said, if you want a carbon blade, I'd recommend it as your first one❗
      The price is reasonable too, so as a first carbon blade it's a good pick
      When you hit, if you drop your contact point slightly, the ball lands cleanly on the table❗
      If you use a rubber with good spin, I think it's worth more than the price❗❗

      Rick (Experience: 2〜3 years) Easy to use

      Player reviews

      It's easy to get spin on the ball.
      For topspin drives, if you angle the blade a bit flatter and brush the ball it goes in, and it also goes in if you hit it more like a flat shot. Since it bounces well and generates speed, I think it's fine to back off from the table to some degree.

      Poseidon (Experience: 2〜3 years) For beginners

      Player reviews

      The topspin drive is decent enough, but while it's good for beginners, I don't think it suits advanced players. Please choose a rubber that generates good spin!!!
