    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    This inner-layer racket receives high praise for its exceptional cost-performance ratio and is considered ideal for beginner to intermediate players upgrading their equipment. Its superior ball control and easy spin generation make it popular among a wide range of players.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Excellent cost-performance value
    • Good ball contact and strong control
    • Stable drive shots with easy spin
    • Reliable performance in short-range techniques
    • Great alternative to Inner Force ZLC
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveFor a special material racket, it's affordable with excellent performance. It's perfect for upgrading from ply rackets, with good balance between attack and defense, and easy spin and control.
    ▽ CriticalThe racket is somewhat heavy, causing timing issues during continuous play. It performs poorly with soft rubbers, and mediocre swings result in flat shots. Harder rubber selection and a complete swing follow-through are essential.

      The person involved (Experience: 6〜10 years) Great overall

      Player reviews

      I bought the FL handle version, 93g on its own (the grip is on the slim side).

      The weight number is fairly high, but maybe because of the balance point, I didn't feel it as heavy.

      There's no technique in particular that felt hard to do, and spin felt easy to generate.

      It holds the ball well,
      and I liked how it flies in a flat line, just clearing the net.

      Overall it's easy to use and good value for money, so I think it's a blade well worth trying.

      Table tennis lover (Experience: 2〜3 years) My first special-material blade!!

      Player reviews

      Switched over from a 5-ply all-wood blade.
      My impression after using it is that it's really good.
      Even coming from all-wood, I was able to
      switch over smoothly.
      I've decided to stick with this blade
      for a while.
      It's reasonably priced for a special-material blade,
      but it still performed flawlessly
      in matches too.

      Table Tennis Traveler (Experience: 2〜3 years) VICTAS's greatest masterpiece!! When in doubt, go with this!!

      Player reviews

      ☆ Things I personally liked!!

      - Moderate speed, holds the ball well, and easy to use!!
      - Great balance between offense and defense!!
      - Cheap for a special-material blade!!
      - The moderate speed makes the short game easy
      and reliable!!

      ☆ Who I'd recommend this blade to

      People who want to try a special-material blade for the first time, people who want to get stronger from here,
      and people looking for consistency — I think this is a great pick for all of them!!

      ☆ Finally

      Once you get comfortable with this blade,
      I think it's good to gradually move up to faster blades,
      like VICTAS's own ZX GEAR OUT!!
      If you're stepping up from an all-wood blade,
      I think this is a great choice!!

      Spinning Drive Man (Experience: 11〜20 years) Better than Innerforce!

      Player reviews

      This blade performs really well despite not being all that expensive.
      Topspin drives are stable on both forehand and backhand, and when you want to hit a powerful shot, it delivers real power.
      The amount of spin is plenty, though it might fall a little short compared to other inner blades.
      The arc on loops tends to come out high, for better or worse.
      Since it's an inner blade, every short-game technique was easy to use.
      The blade itself isn't all that heavy either, and I think it's a classic blade that lets you handle every technique in a well-balanced way.

      Shadow part (Experience: 2〜3 years) Easy-to-use all-rounder

      Player reviews

      Both spin and control are easy to manage, and you get good speed too. I think it's great for middle schoolers who want to improve from here.

      Thaikin (Experience: 2〜3 years) Not as stiff as you'd think!!

      Player reviews

      I'm a third-year junior high student getting ready for entrance exams.
      In the reviews, some people said things like "it's hard" or "it flies flat," but for me it draws a nice arc and lands on the table just fine. Hitting against backspin and countering are both really easy to do, and I thought it's a great piece of gear for today's junior high and high schoolers! I made it to the prefectural tournament, but matches inevitably turn into rallies, so for anyone who wants "power, but control too," this blade-and-rubber combo works really well!!
      As for the Stiff on the backhand, against powerful counters or drive shots, I never got pushed back, and it felt like everything I hit landed in, lol.
      It was a feeling like nothing I'd experienced before.

      (ryu (Experience: 6〜10 years) The trendy fast-flying inner blade

      Player reviews

      Before this, I'd been using the Hurricane Long 5X and the Viscaria, so I'll compare it against those.
      With a thicker core and similar overall thickness to the Long 5X, the performance is very similar, but thanks to the balance point it's extremely easy to swing.
      A relaxed, loose swing is essential, but this feeling of gripping the ball and then having it fly off is something I'd highly recommend. It also tends to produce a flatter ball trajectory, which makes it easier to convert into points — a big plus.
      Also, because it grips and then releases the ball, you can get both spin and bounce even when driving from away from the table, and the ball carries far. I'd recommend it for modern all-round play.
