The one I bought was the Fortius FT Light, but it was still quite heavy, and it felt thick in the hand too. For things like Q3 in thick or max thickness, I think it suits lobbing-type play well. I wouldn't really recommend it to someone who's used a thin sponge before. With thick sponge on both sides, serving might be a bit harder, but on hard hits and smashes it produces amazing speed and power. I think it's a good fit for someone who's used to a bouncy setup.

My elementary school daughter had been using a carbon blade from another maker, but she struggled with pushes and kept missing blocks long, so I decided to switch her to this one.
The feel took some getting used to at first, but in a good way it doesn't fly as much (making it easier to control), and she's become able to watch the ball well and move her opponent around with blocks. As a result, it's helped establish a style that suits her — absorbing the opponent's attacks and going on the offensive when a chance comes, which is a great outcome for this blade. As a bonus effect, she's now motivated to work on her weak pushes too because she likes the blade so much.
That said, it's still a fairly heavy blade, so a slim elementary schooler might end up straining their arm from swinging it around, or struggle to keep up in fast rallies.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

Looking up to Yuya Oshima, this was the first blade I switched to back in junior high.
Honestly it feels really heavy, but when I hit with it, it flew so well I wondered if it could really be all wood.
It has that nice all-wood feel, the short game is easy, and it's good enough that you won't lose out in rallies even playing from further back.
The price has gone up a bit recently, but I still think it's a really great blade for how cheap it is!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Easy to put spin on and plenty of speed — sounds like it's all good, but it's incredibly heavy...
If you're not a power hitter, I think it could work well for a player using pips on one side, since the weight ends up being neither too heavy nor too light.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I've only test-hit it a little so far, but it's just really easy to handle. Spin comes easily and the price is reasonable too, so I'd recommend it.

Bought this as my third blade.
The short game feels easy, without the quirks you get from special-material blades. Drives have plenty of power too.
It is heavy, so that's the one thing to watch out for.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Bought this as my third blade, in penhold.
It's very easy to use.
Smashes have plenty of power, and drives are excellent too.It also generates a decent amount of spin, so it's a blade that should suit just about anyone.
I'd really recommend it to inverted-on-both-sides drive players.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard
