    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly rated as an entry-level composite racket for intermediate players. At around 6000 yen, it delivers excellent control and spin capabilities, earning strong support from users transitioning from pure wood rackets. Its lightweight design makes it easy to handle and ideal for aggressive drive attacks.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Excellent control performance and stability praised
    • Lightweight design makes top-spin and drive shots easier
    • Ideal transition racket from pure wood paddles
    • Slim grip offers comfortable handling and operability
    • High versatility with flexible rubber selection
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe performance at 6000 yen is godly. With Dignics 64 on the front, I can hit as intended. The back side with ROZENA also sits solidly in the opponent's court without issues.
    ▽ CriticalWhen I tried to play a loop drive, the ball flew surprisingly straight. I couldn't lift backspin, so this racket isn't suitable for loop drive players due to its linear trajectory orientation.

      Ken-chan (Experience: 2〜3 years) Easy to use!

      Player reviews

      I found it very stable and really easy to use! It pairs really well with Rozena,
      and flicks and chiquitas land one after another! I used to use a 5-ply all-wood blade before, and once I got interested in special-material blades and switched, I got a lot stronger, so I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to move from a wood blade to a special-material one!!! By the way, this opinion comes from an overly excited junior high school boy! I'd be honored if it's useful as a reference!

      Table lover Yus (Experience: 2〜3 years) Flies well and easy to use!

      Player reviews

      I'm in my second year of junior high now. In my first year, I used
      the beginner-level Exter IV,
      but once my fundamentals started to come together I got curious about special-material blades,
      so I tried the Timo Boll CAF.
      This blade is a great pick as
      someone's first special-material blade -
      it flies well, is easy to handle, and the thicker inner ply
      lets you hit powerful drives,
      so I'd really recommend it to anyone moving from an all-wood blade
      to a special-material one!

      Takusan (Experience: 4〜5 years) Good

      Player reviews

      I switched over from TSP's "Award Offensive."
      Since this was my first special-material blade and it's also an outer-ply construction, my impression was that it really flies.
      Just like a lot of people have written in their reviews, pairing it with a soft rubber like Tenergy 05 or Rozena lets you hit balls that combine control, speed, and power all at once.
      That said, no matter how much CA fiber is used, switching from all-wood you might feel some unfamiliarity in the ball-holding feel and the feel on contact. I think you can cover that with practice and skill as you get used to it.
      A blade I'd recommend for players with a very aggressive style.
      It's a really good blade, so please give it a try!

      ace (Experience: More than 20 years) Quick ball release, yet stable?

      Player reviews

      Bought it because I was drawn to how light the blade is.
      Forehand hits and reverse-side hits with a Chinese-penhold grip were both really easy to pull off.

      But

      when I tried a loop drive, the ball flew surprisingly straight, with almost no arc.

      That day I sealed away loop drives and just played a match (for fun), and it felt stable and I was playing well, I think.
      I think drives are easy to hit as long as you don't try to loop them.

      It's light, so reverse-side hits with penhold were satisfying to smack away, but I couldn't lift underspin balls with it, so I stopped using it after one day.

      I think this would actually be pretty good for someone who doesn't loop their drives. It's light too!

      LIU (Experience: 6〜10 years) Similar to that discontinued blade

      Player reviews

      Just like a shop owner told me,
      overall I felt the performance is close to
      the discontinued Inner Force AL.

      The feel is on the harder side, but I think it holds the ball longer than
      the Inner Force Carbon.

      It seems like a blade that would suit both a balance-focused style with soft rubber
      and an aggressive style with hard rubber.

      Manyu (Experience: 11〜20 years) Recommended for kids through elementary schoolers

      Player reviews

      Very easy to control, and it's light in weight too, so the handling is excellent.
      The blade is also more compact than a regular size.
      The feel is soft, so it's easy to get spin on the ball, which makes it easy to learn the feeling of "putting spin on the ball."
      The price is reasonable for the performance, so it's recommended for young kids just starting out, up through elementary schoolers.

      Tell Taro (Experience: 2〜3 years) An all-round racket regardless of age

      Player reviews

      The grip is relatively thin, so if you're used to a thicker grip it might feel like it could slip out of your hand, but with the flared version, the shape fits your hand so it won't slip out, and your wrist has plenty of freedom, which makes the short game very easy (chiquitas, flicks, etc.)! It also holds the ball well, which is a real blessing for me since I'm not great at topspin drives! I've also become able to handle chop play with it. The special material's performance really comes through, but unlike carbon it has a feel closer to plain wood, so it's easy to handle even for people who aren't into special-material blades! It suits any age group, so please give it a try!
