    The light head improves the swing and the shaft's "X fullerene" easily fly.

      Straight Matsuda （Experience：6-10 years） Enables smart attacking shots

      Its biggest feature is that you can hit fast smashes with great extension. It's suited to quick movement around the court, so it's very helpful if you're aiming for an aggressive playing style. Another advantage is that it responds instantly to subtle adjustments when smashing.

      Yuji （Experience：Less than a year） A racket I recommend for beginners

      I was told that a racket with a soft feel that makes it easy to control the shuttle is good for beginners, so I bought it on the recommendation of a friend from my club. It was reasonably priced at around 5,000 yen. I think it's a racket that's easy to handle even for beginners.

      Totomu Oita （Experience：4-5 years） A light racket you can swing all out

      It's a racket you can swing all out. It swings so satisfyingly that right after I started using it, I had a feeling badminton was going to be a lot more fun from now on.
      A swing that feels so good you can't stop wanting to smash: that's what makes this racket great. It's also very cheap, around 5,000 yen.

      Meruto （Experience：4-5 years） An easy-swinging racket

      It's a racket I bought recently and use regularly for both practice and matches. Shot control and distance go without saying, but I especially like how easy it is to swing. It's a very easy racket to handle and isn't heavy, so I feel it can be used by everyone from beginners to advanced players.

    • Sukunneyo

      Sukunneyo （Experience：2-3 years） The badminton racket I use at my local club

      Just going along with an invitation from people in my neighborhood, I, a complete novice, took up badminton.
      I bought the racket at a nearby sporting goods shop.
      It was more expensive than on Kakaku.com, but I looked at various options and decided on it.
      It was said to be recommended for beginners up to around intermediate level, and there were no particular issues performance-wise, so I chose this one, but honestly, what I like most is its color scheme. I really took a liking to it.

    • Tamura

      Tamura （Experience：4-5 years） Recommended for speed-oriented players

      I'm using the white/blue version.
      The head is built light, so you can swing quickly, and I'd recommend it even for beginners who have just started badminton. It has sharp repulsion, so I recommend it for people who want to play at a fast pace.
