    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    The ultra-lightweight design (approximately 76-79g) is the main feature, making it ideal for beginners transitioning to carbon rackets. It excels in front-court play and on-table techniques, with excellent compatibility with sticky rubbers. However, evaluations are polarized regarding mid-court rallies and powerful strokes, where it shows limitations.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Ultra-lightweight construction enhances swing speed
    • Excellent for front-court play and touch shots
    • Great compatibility with sticky rubber
    • Affordable pricing with high cost-performance
    • Learning curve required before adaptation
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveLightweight with excellent follow-through. Despite being outer carbon, the bounce is well-controlled. Soft feel, satisfying short strokes, and wide sweet spot make it easy for beginners and intermediate players to use.
    ▽ CriticalThe lightweight design makes the ball lighter and harder to return heavy balls. Strong flex makes it unsuitable for mid-court rallies. Poor feedback and delayed skill development. Not recommended for players seeking powerful two-handed attacks.

      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.

      Nimanima JAPAN (Experience: 6〜10 years) Too light lol

      Player reviews

      It's light. Because of that, your swing speed increases, and so does the speed of your drives and smashes. The ball leaves the racket quickly, so it flies off before you can really get spin on it. So if you want to put a lot of spin on the ball, I think a tacky rubber or a soft spin-oriented tension rubber would suit it better.

      Hyorohyoro Man (Experience: 4〜5 years) Light

      Player reviews

      I don't have much power, so I bought this. On top of that, when I put a light rubber on it, it got so light my swing felt weird. But because of that my swing speed got faster, so now I can hit drives that opponents can't return.

      Taniguchi (Experience: 2〜3 years)

      Player reviews

      The grip is really thin.
      If you're not used to it, it's so light that you'll end up whiffing the ball
      a lot. But it's easy to put spin on.
      Serve: OK
      Topspin drive: Great
      Push: so-so
      Topspin rallies: Great
      That's roughly how it feels.
      You really can whiff easily with this,
      so just be careful about that.

      TF (Experience: 2〜3 years) My thoughts after 6 months of use

      Player reviews

      I've been using it for about six months now, and the balance of performance is really outstanding.
      Even though it's carbon, the speed isn't too fast, so I think basically anyone can use it comfortably.
      I think it's perfect for intermediate players aiming to become all-rounders.
      When you hit it gently you get the wood feel, and when you hit hard you get the carbon feel. So it's really like a middle ground between a bouncy carbon blade and a soft, spin-friendly wood blade. The control is outstanding too.
      It's also cheap, so I'd recommend it to junior high and high school students too.

      It's light and easy to drive the ball with, so I'd recommend it for players who play close to the table or at mid-distance.
      Even with a hard, thick rubber on it, the total weight doesn't get too heavy, so it's easy to adjust, and I felt like it really widens the range of equipment choices.

      I've even had opponents in matches say "whoa, that's light!!"
      If you're looking for a light, easy-to-handle blade, definitely give it a try.

      Shoshinsha Kozou (Experience: 4〜5 years) Easy to use like wood

      Player reviews

      A lightweight and easy-to-use blade with decent speed. My impression is that it's slightly behind the Innerforce ALC. It doesn't feel much like carbon, more like wood, and the impact does come through to your hand. I'm a 5-ply wood user myself, but I can use this with no discomfort at all. My impression is that spin is easy to put on too. The grip is on the thinner side, which actually makes small technical shots easier. Chiquita and pushes go smoothly. If you like a thicker grip, this might not be for you.
      Overall the blade's performance is high, and since it's lightweight, if you make up for whatever's missing with your choice of rubber, I think it can become a blade you use happily for a very long time. I'd say it's good as a second or third blade. It might feel a bit lacking for intermediate players and above.
