    Compared to the 15, it's noticeably lighter.
    That said, your shots also get noticeably 'lighter' in feel, so you need to be a bit careful about that.

    Spin-based techniques like serves feel like they don't change much.
    But attacking techniques like drives feel a little lacking.
    Still, unless you're at a level where you're competing in national tournaments, I don't think the weight of the ball matters that much, so I'd say this is a pretty good match for intermediate-level players.
    If you're going to put this on both sides, I feel like you might as well use a different rubber for the backhand.

    This is an all-around blade usable from complete beginners up through intermediate players
    People say the Kasumi Basic is Nittaku's version of the Korbel, but the blade size was different.
    This blade, though, is a true Nittaku version of the Korbel - it's the Kasumi Basic with a bigger blade size
    Being close to the Korbel, it pairs well with both long pips and short pips, so it doesn't pick a rubber

    The ball sits really well and it's easy to handle
    If you play a forehand-focused style of table tennis, I think this can satisfy quite a lot of people

    User review

    Honestly, I don't see a reason to use this blade.
    First off, the feel on contact is kind of dull and hollow.
    According to the catalog, it's supposed to have the Ma Lin Extra's feel with a bounce boost.
    The feel is indeed similar, but having that feel on a 7-ply just seems off.
    The average weight is 95g, so unless you're pretty confident in your power, I don't think you'd want to pick this up.

    The one I own weighs 89g.
    As for bounce, it's maybe just a bit more than a Clipper Wood - basically THE definition of a 7-ply.
    That said, I did feel the distance was better than other 7-plies.
    It seems like it'd be strong for topspin rallies too.

    The biggest appeal of this blade is that the ball rises well -
    against backspin, I don't think you'd ever really net the ball.

    I also tried it with Rakza Z, and since the ball rises quite a bit, it makes up for tacky rubber's weak point against backspin returns.
    As for who I'd recommend it to, I'd say intermediate to advanced players (people confident in their power).
    Depending on the rubber and the individual blade, it can easily go over 200 grams.

    Used mainly on the backhand
    I'll write this comparing it to Rigan Spin and Rakza 7.
    ① Weight
    Lighter than Rigan Spin or Rakza
    I'd recommend it to people who want to keep the racket's weight down on the backhand side
    There's individual variation, but for me it changed by about 5 grams
    ② Spin performance
    My impression is that Rigan Spin generates more spin
    *This may partly be a matter of technique, but when you sink the ball deep into the rubber and drive through, it doesn't get all that much spin
    ③ Speed performance
    Since it's softer than Rigan Spin, it feels faster
    ④ Arc
    Fairly flat/direct
    The ball tends to land shallow, so you might get countered a lot・・・
    ⑤ Control
    Soft and easy to use
    The ball tends to land shallow, so it's hard to adjust the depth
    ⑥ Overall
    I think this is a rubber that's quite easy to use overall.
    I'd recommend it to people who are worried about the weight on the backhand side of a penhold, or on a shakehand blade.
    It might be tough to use on the forehand since the spin performance isn't that great, but I think it's a good rubber that beginners and lower-level players can make plenty good use of.

    The feel is close to a hard wooden blade — like a 7-ply blade.
    Good first impression right away.
    The ball really lifts up nicely.
    It's very easy to attack backspin balls with it.
    It also doesn't have that fast ball-off-blade feel typical of carbon blades, so it's a very easy blade to control.
    The short game feels a bit springy, but it was within an acceptable range.
    The grip shape is like a slightly slimmer version of the Hurricane Long 5, and I think it would suit pretty much everyone.
    Comparing it to a similar blade (Hurricane Long 5 vs. Innerforce Layer ALC):
    Feel
    Harder: Hurricane Long 5 > Innerforce > H2
    Speed
    Faster: Hurricane Long 5 > H2 > Innerforce
    Ball-holding
    Holds more: Innerforce > H2 > Hurricane Long 5
    Distance
    Flies further: Hurricane Long 5 > H2 > Innerforce
    That's roughly how I'd rank them.
    If you couldn't handle a Hurricane Long 5 type blade, I think it's worth trying this one.
    Overall, it's a really well-finished blade.
    I just wish it were a bit cheaper...
