    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly rated as a high-rebound racket tailored for attacking cut players, yet significant specification changes from the predecessor Zhu Shihe model have led some players to struggle with adaptation and report difficulty in feel and control.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Excellent offensive performance with high rebound power
    • Improved spin when combined with cut-focused rubbers
    • Major changes from predecessor cause adjustment challenges
    • Ideal for players seeking lightweight and bouncy rackets
    • Performance varies significantly with rubber selection
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThis racket truly shines for attacking cut players. Offense becomes easier, and the spin on cuts is quite strong. The compatibility with reverse pips is also excellent.
    ▽ CriticalCompared to Zhu Shihe, despite greater bounce, the stronger flex makes the ball feel less held. This critical change in core feel led me to abandon the transition.

      Mr. Fascination (Experience: 4〜5 years) Bounces a lot more than the Joo Se Hyuk

      Player reviews

      My first impression was that it's quite bouncy for a defensive blade.
      As Butterfly's official site states, the coefficient of restitution is almost the same as an offensive blade, so it's more than capable when you want to attack.
      As for chopping, swinging straight down gives you stable, controlled chops.
      For the forehand I'd recommend a tacky tension or spin-oriented tension rubber, and for the backhand a spin-oriented short pips or a soft, unpredictable long pips rubber.

      CMEUNIE (Experience: 4〜5 years) The hitting feel is…….

      Player reviews

      With this blade... you can tell the moment you hit your first ball.
      Hmm? Something feels off?
      The speed is better than the Joo Se-hyuk.
      As for control, huh? A few things felt off, I thought.
      Spin wasn't hugely different, but it was a bit lower than the Joo Se-hyuk.
