      I have VICTAS's V15 Extra on both sides, and when I do topspin rallies it feels like I'm holding the ball and throwing it — even hitting from far back it flies, but the good part is it doesn't go long. It's that "flies but doesn't fly too far" kind of feeling. That's exactly what you'd expect from a blade with no special materials in it. For serves, when I do a backspin serve that comes back close to the net, the ball doesn't dip down but instead pops up. So it's easy to get it in. The short game is easy to handle too. It's clear why Niwa uses this. I hope this is helpful as a reference.
      Sorry for the long post.

      Moth (Experience: ２〜３ years) Surprisingly versatile racket

      Player reviews

      This is a good racket.
      I'd been using the Innerforce Layer ALC before this,
      and I don't feel like the bounce dropped off at all. For some reason it feels just about the same. On light hits it grips the ball firmly
      and lets you put spin on it, and on hard hits the ball leaves the rubber
      fast so you can hit a good shot.
      I used V15 Extra with it, and it's incredibly
      easy to use! You can put solid spin on the ball, yet the speed is fast, and on top of that the control is really good.
      Without a certain level of skill it would be wasted potential,
      but if you have some decent skill, definitely give it a try.
      It's such an all-around racket that it's hard to believe it's the gear behind Koki Niwa's fantastic playing style.

      Countering is easy. A light touch produces a good shot. It puts spin on the ball well, and it's a great match with tacky rubbers too.

      Ryuki (Experience: ４〜５ years) Still great

      Player reviews

      If you admire Niwa's playing style, this is the one.
      It's easy to use for any style of play.
      I've tried putting on all kinds of rubbers, but VICTAS rubbers really are the best fit!

      My recommendation is to buy a light individual blade and put Extra on it.
      *Though I can't quite pull that off myself... (^^)

      Ebi land (Experience: ６〜１０ years) A high-balance blade

      Player reviews

      I switched from the Timo Boll ALC to the 85-gram Koki Niwa Wood. So I'll compare it to that.
      The trajectory on hard drives and the way the ball carries are close to an outer-carbon racket. However, there's no feeling of the ball just flying off on its own — it has a feel like you're really hitting with your own power. Because of that, I had fewer overshoot misses on light hits close to the table. The feel is truly wonderful. It's exactly what I was looking for. And on top of everything, the design looks so cool... put V15 Extra on it and look sharp.

      Table Tennis Fan (Experience: １１〜２０ years) This works

      Player reviews

      I bought this with the same setup as Koki Niwa. I'd heard that a hard blade paired with a hard rubber is easy to get wrong, but it wasn't that bad. Even a light hit comes back fine, and if I get driven at, just blocking it sends it back with counter-level power. Glad I bought it.

      I've only hit with it a little so far, but it had about the same bounce as the carbon-blend rackets I normally use. On top of that, the amount of spin was even higher than with a carbon racket, so overall it felt like a really high-value racket.
