    • Easy spin application with good ball grip
    • Excellent compatibility with sticky rubber
    • Thin grip enables better touch techniques
    • Larger blade with tip-heavy weight distribution
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveTop-class performance among 5-ply plywood rackets with excellent balance between spin and speed. Works great with sticky rubber without distance concerns, adaptable to any playing style.
    ▽ CriticalLost bounce significantly compared to SK7. Unsuitable for flicks and smashes, specialized for heavy topspin techniques which beginners find difficult to control.

      Player reviews

      If I had to describe this blade in one word, I'd call it a "Hadraw, upgraded." That said, the part where it differs from the Hadraw is how easy it is to put spin on. The Hadraw is a blade for power hitters, but this one feels like it has power while also making spin drives easy. This review has been all comparisons to the Hadraw, but my conclusion is that this is a blade I'd recommend to power hitters who also want spin.
