    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Characterized by the weight and rigidity typical of 7-ply blades, this racket excels in power and feel. It receives high praise from aggressive players seeking wood material authenticity over special material rackets, though it requires strength and technique to handle effectively.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • 7-ply construction creates weight and hardness enabling powerful shots
    • Excellent feel and control characteristic of wood material rackets
    • Strong balance of speed and spin, particularly effective for drives
    • Requires player strength and technique; unsuitable for beginners
    • Great value compared to carbon rackets, appeals to feel-focused players
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveDelivers the classic 7-ply triple threat: heavy, hard, and springy, with exceptional wood feel and shot quality. Resists opponent force effectively and allows stable blocking. A truly excellent racket with great value.
    ▽ CriticalToo heavy with inadequate spin generation and early ball release. Arm-only swings cause fatigue; requires proper lower-body and rotational mechanics. Absolutely not recommended for beginners.

      A certain person (Experience: 6〜10 years) A blade that helps drive players grow

      Player reviews

      A friend of mine uses this, and I think it's a really good blade.
      When you make unnecessary movements on your drive you sometimes can't hit it the way you want, but with good technique you can produce shots that feel similar to Harimoto's Innerforce ALC.
      I'd recommend it for beginners who want to learn the basic drive technique.
      That said, smashes come out noticeably slower, so I'd recommend it for players in middle school or older.

      Yuu.Cutman (Experience: 2〜3 years) A blade not for everyone

      Player reviews

      This blade is 7-ply, with a thick board, and it's heavy and a bit hard. I normally use a softer blade, so I found it a little hard to handle...
      To put it kindly, the bounce is moderate, but to be blunt, it's a hard 7-ply blade that doesn't fly all that much. Naturally, since the board is thick, it's fairly heavy too. That might be part of why I found it extra hard to handle...
      I've said a few negative things, but I think this is a perfect fit for someone who says "I don't get along with special-material blades, and I want a hard blade that flies just the right amount." It's not for everyone, but for the people it clicks with, I think it really clicks!

      I haven't been playing table tennis for very long, but this is really easy to use, and best of all it's easy on a student's wallet. I think it's harder than a typical blade. It was easy to use even as a beginner, so I'd recommend it.

      A 7-ply blade paired with short pips on the backhand. I normally play inverted rubber on both sides, but it feels natural to hit with this combo too. The balance point is set so you don't feel as much weight as with the old SK7. It feels lighter than the catalog weight suggests. The ball holds on the blade quite well — it's a refined 7-ply blade. A soft tacky rubber would probably suit it well too.

      Player reviews

      Maybe because it's a 7-ply blade, it's a bit heavy, but the feel when you hit the sweet spot is amazing!
      The speed and spin were more than enough for me personally, so I'd recommend it for anyone who prefers hitting with wood over a special-material blade.

      Jojo (Experience: Less than a year) Great speed and spin

      Player reviews

      It's a heavy 7-ply blade, but that makes it easy to generate power and speed.
      And in general it takes spin really well
      you can really tell when you hit a curve drive — it grips the ball easily
      If you focus on control it lands right where you aim, so you can go for good serve placement too
      Blocks also go in as long as you make contact, so it gives you the confidence to go for your shots without fear.
      That said, maybe it's just because I'm not fully used to it yet, but my hand hurts sometimes — probably fine once I get used to it though.

      Natto (Experience: 2〜3 years) A classic, tried-and-true racket

      Player reviews

      A 7-ply blade with a track record of use by top players — being 7-ply, you definitely feel the weight. The control, speed, and spin are all good, so I can recommend it for drive players. My recommended rubbers are Butterfly's Rozena and Nittaku's Fastarc G-1 — they go really well with it — and XIOM's Omega is a good match too. It's truly a classic, top-tier blade!
