    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    With the vast majority of 30 reviews rating it 9 points or higher overall, this racket receives consistently strong evaluations. Its greatest appeal lies in its versatility as a 7-ply blade that handles all techniques with ease, while its average weight exceeding 90g remains a persistent concern throughout reviews.

    • Notably heavy at average 90g+
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThis 7-ply racket has no difficult handling characteristics, excellent ball retention for easy drive shots. Provides good power in flat hits and is easy to attack from both near and far court.
    ▽ CriticalRather than bringing out the true qualities of a 7-ply blade, it feels like a 7-ply that approaches 5-ply characteristics, prioritizing ease of use over authentic 7-ply feel.

      Prydz (Experience: 6〜10 years) A powerful god-tier 7-ply blade

      Player reviews

      This is genuinely a great blade.
      The grip is about standard thickness and easy to hold. The feel is medium — not too hard, not too soft. It's got decent flight, about average for a 7-ply blade, and the spin is excellent too. You can play a fast, punchy game or lean fully into spin. The arc isn't too high or too low — it comes up just right, so pushes are easy to hit, and power drives produce ridiculous speed while still carrying tons of spin. And on top of all that, it's only a bit over 7,000 yen. The value for money is insane ('Д') — honestly, the performance is on par with a blade in the 10,000+ yen range.
      The spin and speed are several levels above even that high-performance, great-value SWAT blade. But there's one drawback: the weight — it's on the heavy side. Still, it's not as bad as the SK7, so it was fine for me.

      Also, I heard that Oshima switched from a Timo ALC to a Fortius FT to prioritize maneuverability in the short game, but honestly, the short-game handling is just average. With a bounce level like GFT or Rakza, you can stop the ball firmly enough, though. If you're coming from a special-material blade, the short game might feel easier, but I think a 5-ply user switching to this blade will find the short-game handling a bit lacking.
