    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    This 5-ply blade is highly appreciated for its exceptional elasticity and spin performance that belies its ply construction, along with its lightweight and easy-to-handle characteristics. However, many users note that selecting the right rubber and possessing adequate technique are essential to fully utilize its superior performance.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Exceptional bounce and speed uncharacteristic of 5-ply construction
    • Lightweight and easy to swing
    • Excellent spin generation and ball holding quality
    • Particularly compatible with sticky rubbers
    • Performance significantly varies with rubber choice and player skill level
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThis 5-ply blade bounces unexpectedly hard, delivering speed comparable to inner rackets. Its light weight and excellent compatibility with sticky rubbers make powerful drives easy to execute.
    ▽ CriticalThe extreme bounce makes control difficult and rubber selection challenging. Its combination with tension rubbers is not ideal, and considerable technique is required to fully harness its capabilities.

      Player reviews

      Right from forehand hitting practice, I was thrown off by how much pop it has for a 5-ply blade.
      I've had Hurricane on my forehand before, and I'd say this is a fairly hard blade.

      That said, it has a really solid, dense feel at the core (just my personal impression), and it seems to respond well to the swing even when going for hard shots. It doesn't feel like a typical 5-ply wood blade at all. In the short game it bounces more than I expected, but it's within an acceptable range I think.

      Tenergy on the backhand was also really well balanced. I never feel like I'm losing out in counters. It's a great blade.

      Haste Table Tennis (Experience: 2〜3 years) A very good racket

      Player reviews

      I think this is a really great racket. Even though it's all wood, it has a lot of bounce, which really helps my fast-attack style. The control is good too, so I'd recommend it to anyone from beginners to advanced players.

      Lasagna (Experience: 4〜5 years) Wonderful feel

      Player reviews

      The feel is fantastic!
      It flexes and holds the ball well too!
      Rallies stay incredibly stable.
      If you draw the ball in close before hitting, you can get some serious power out of it.
      I loved it enough to buy a second one, but
      the grip peeled off on both of them. (Maybe from sanding it down?)
      I glued it back on and it didn't feel any different afterward. (lol)
      Also, when I used something called Racket Protect from Nittaku, part of the blade itself came off along with the rubber when I peeled it away.

      Player reviews

      I thought this was a great blade with a good balance of speed and control. I'd recommend pairing it with a tension rubber like Tenergy. Once again, I think it's a really great blade.

      Genius Table Tennis (Experience: 4〜5 years) Godlike!! Great overall!!!

      Player reviews

      The first thing I noticed when I hit with it was how good the ball-holding is — I could produce stable drives with a nice high arc. Before I bought it, I thought the ball would leave the blade quickly, but it turned out to be the exact opposite (lol).
      The blade is thin, which made things like chiquitas really easy. Serves spin well too, and switching directions was easy, so I could hit third-ball attacks with ease.
      As for rubber, I'd recommend
      V01 on the forehand
      and V01 Stiff on the backhand.
      This lets you produce consistent, repeated drives and blocks. The Stiff left a really good impression on me personally. I also think putting a slightly harder rubber on the forehand could work well.
      Definitely give it a try!!!

      This blade isn't just good for control — the flex and speed are great too. It's also light, so even with a heavy rubber you can swing all the way through without trouble. I'd recommend it for intermediate players and above.
