      Suzaka （Experience：2-3 years） Recommended for beginners

      Badminton rackets range from cheap to expensive, but if you just want to play casually, I recommend this racket. It's cheap, but it's made of carbon. Not many rackets in this price range are carbon. It's light, easy to handle and very good.

    • Master Matsuzaka Junior

      Master Matsuzaka Junior （Experience：6-10 years） Good feel, and it's easy to aim for the lines

      In situations that call for a delicate approach, it lets me attack right along the lines with confidence, so I think it's an excellent racket. It's also easy to balance offense and defense when going through rallies with changes of pace. I also see an advantage in how freely you can maneuver it.

    • Yuji

      Yuji （Experience：6-10 years） A badminton racket that's good value for money and one I can recommend to beginners

      The standout feature of this racket is, above all, its lightness. It's made entirely of carbon, so it's very light, and I think it's very easy for women to handle too. Even though it's light, it's very durable and sturdy, so it's a racket I can highly recommend to people who have just started playing badminton.

    • Kujira Goro

      Kujira Goro （Experience：6-10 years） Smashes go in smoothly

      The grip feels natural early on after you start using it, so it's easy to hit smooth smashes. Since it's a reasonably priced racket, I'm also glad I can use it for everyday practice without worrying. I feel the careful stringing is another one of its appeals.

    • Sunada Mangetsu

      Sunada Mangetsu （Experience：6-10 years） The light, soft feel is appealing

      I use it as my everyday practice racket, and I feel it has a light feel that makes smart shots easy. Even in intense rallies that simulate real matches, I can play while keeping the physical strain as low as possible, which really helps.

    • Mazda Hanamoto

      Mazda Hanamoto （Experience：6-10 years） A racket with excellent functionality and durability

      The stringing is very careful, and it has the durability to keep up steady play for long periods. The low-strain grip feel is another attraction, and since it lets me raise the quality of my shots to suit my play, I find it very useful.

    • Yoteru Suzuka

      Yoteru Suzuka （Experience：6-10 years） Easy to balance offense and defense

      The string tension is a bit on the high side, and it's a racket that can easily handle tough play. Switching between offense and defense is smooth, and you can hit stable smashes with little wobble. It's highly functional and durable, and I feel it's good value for money too.
