    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    The majority of reviews praise its lightweight nature and control characteristics, while some users point out drawbacks such as the ball becoming lighter or issues with ball feel. It pairs exceptionally well with tacky rubbers and is supported by a wide range of players from beginners to advanced users.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Ultra-lightweight at 79g, easy to swing, ideal for women and beginners
    • Excellent compatibility with tacky rubbers, allowing easy handling of heavy rubbers
    • Perfect for front-court attacking players with superior chipshots and chiquita shots
    • Carbon racket with controlled bounce for superior control without excessive flight
    • Excellent value at around 8,000 yen with outstanding cost performance
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveLightweight with excellent follow-through, soft ball feel despite being outer carbon with ultra-thin material, allowing easy chopshooting and length control, making it an excellent racket that beginners and intermediate players can easily handle.
    ▽ CriticalNot suitable for mid and back-court rallies; the lightweight racket itself cannot produce weight, and strong flexibility causes you to lose pressure exchanges, making it limited to counter-based front-court players.

      I like table tennis (Experience: 11〜20 years) Pretty good

      Player reviews

      It's really easy to use, and easy to grip.
      Even with max thickness inverted rubber at medium hardness on both sides, it's light!

      There are a lot of heavy blades out there these days, so a light blade that lets you go for counters close to the table is a godsend!

      Even after playing through a lot of sets, my playing style doesn't fall apart, so having a blade that's light on average really helps.

      Table tennis boy (Experience: 2〜3 years) Amazing spin

      Player reviews

      Even though it's a carbon blade, you can get quite a lot of spin on it. Part of that's probably because I'm using Hurricane Neo 2, but the spin really is there.
      And the speed is impressive too for a TAMUCA5000, though that's probably thanks to Bryce Speed.
      For a rubber combo I'd recommend Hurricane Neo 2 and Bryce Speed. Sorry for the long post.

      Dolphin Light‼︎

      Player reviews

      First off, it's super light!!
      I'd recommend it as a first carbon blade.
      The good points are that it's easy to swing all the way through, and it's easy to lift the ball, which is really appealing.
      The downside is that because it's light, whiffing happens fairly often.
      Also, it flies quite well, so even without a full swing you can still hit a decently powerful ball.
      The blade itself is a bit hard, so I'd recommend a softer rubber.
      Specifically, something like Roundell, Rozena, or Vega Europe.
      Sorry for the long post.

      It's a thin-ply blade at 5.2mm, but it's easy to handle, has good flight, and has flex, so I'd definitely recommend it.
      As a downside, like other thin-ply blades it tends to get pushed around by an opponent's hard shots, and since the blade itself is light, adjusting the total weight is tricky. (Though for people looking for something light, that's actually a plus.)
      Personally I think it's great value for money too, and I'd recommend it to people looking for a second blade or a thin-ply blade.

      Table tennis Too light

      Player reviews

      Since the blade is light, I don't get tired even after playing for a long time. It's really easy to hit with when paired with a soft rubber.

      The blade is quite light. It's fine even with heavy rubbers on both sides. Since it's light, it's easy to swing all the way through, and the carbon gives you fast balls. It doesn't bounce too much, so you can also do high-spin serves, drives, and short-game technique.
      I'd recommend it to people who want to try carbon for the first time, or who want to play a fast-paced style of table tennis.

      North player (Experience: 6〜10 years) My impressions from using it up until last year

      Player reviews

      Until last year I used Vega Asia DF (MAX) on the forehand side and Rozena (max thickness) on the backhand side. This blade itself is hard and bouncy, so putting a softer rubber on the forehand side raises the spin, and combined with the speed the blade itself gives, you can hit fast, spinny shots.
      On the other hand, since I was using max thickness, I noticed a bit more balls going long. (technique-wise)
      On the backhand side, Rozena itself drops in a high arcing trajectory, so once you get used to it, it goes in nicely.
      I'm better on the backhand, so I'd break the opponent down with forehand drives and finish with a backhand. It was light enough that I could swing hard even with max thickness rubber on it.
      I used it as a spare blade from around September to December last year.
