    I normally use the ZX Gear OUT.
    I got hold of an 83g one and tried it out without changing my rubbers. With the rubbers on it came to 178g.
    For an inner-fiber blade, the feel is on the harder side with quick ball release. That said, receive, the short game, and blocking are all stable.
    Compared to outer-fiber blades the speed and power are a bit lower, but the ball-holding and spin are more than good enough.
    I'd especially recommend this to outer-fiber users who want to stabilize their receive.

    I'd especially recommend this to anyone with small hands, regardless of gender.
    Personally, I think this racket suits players who hold the grip deep rather than shallow.
    Since the grip is small (thin?), it's very easy to control power on impact and to control the racket head with your fingers.
    The downside is that you tend to grip too hard when you're tense or firing off consecutive topspin drives, but my grip control has improved because of it.
    If you mainly play close to the table but also want to handle rallies at mid-distance, why not give it a try?

    This racket doesn't fly nearly as much as you'd expect for one with special material inside. On light hits, I thought it felt like a chopper's blade. But if you take advantage of the ball-holding feel and put spin on it, it really flies. I get the impression the ball tends to come out on a slightly flat, straight trajectory.
    Even though it doesn't bounce much, the sweet spot is wide, so blocking, countering, and the short game are all outstandingly stable.
    Meet-hitting isn't impossible, but hitting with spin tends to be more stable.
    The ST grip is round-shaped, and a bit thicker compared to the Viscaria's ST grip.
    It's a strange racket that feels like a 5-ply, like a 7-ply, and also has a hint of special material all at once. It might be just right for someone stepping from a plywood racket into a special-material one. It also seems perfect for someone who finds inner carbon rackets fly too much, but plywood doesn't suit them either.

    I've been using this for about half a year.
    As an offensive wood blade it has a moderate amount of bounce, but as a chopping blade it has quite a lot of bounce.
    The ball-holding and hitting feel are distinctly hinoki, so I think opinions will be split on it. Personally, the closest feel I've found is a brand-new Defense II. Until I got used to it, I kept overshooting, especially on counters. Also, because the blade face is round, I think it's hard to handle if your swing style is a full, all-out follow-through.
    Chops go in just by focusing on holding the ball - they naturally come out straight and deep.
    On offense, two-winged drives, like Hideda's style, are very easy to pull off.
    I'd recommend a different blade unless you're an offense-focused chopper.

    This is a completely different rubber from K3. It leans more toward a tacky rubber than K3 and doesn't bounce as much. Where it's similar is that the sheet is soft and doesn't feel hard. If you're switching from a tension rubber, I think K3 is the better choice. If you're already using tacky rubbers, it's worth trying once.
    The feel reminds me of Nittaku NEO3, but the sheet has more body/firmness. Among recent releases it's somewhat similar to Jikihai C55 — you get better shots by sinking the ball into the sponge rather than catching it thinly on the sheet. That said, you can generate spin off the sheet more than with C55.
    Overall, this fits the current trend of a soft sheet over a hard sponge — a strong tacky rubber made easier to use.
