      No Name It's a good racket!

      I had been using the VERTEX LITE until now, but I thought it was about time for a new one, so I bought this.
      I switched from 4U to 3U, so I expected to feel some change in weight, but the swing speed is good so I don't really notice it.
      Also, the design is simple and the matte finish looks cool.

      I usually use 4U, so even though it's a 3U head-light, the poor maneuverability due to the weight bothered me.
      For people with strength it probably isn't much of a problem, but looking at it overall, I couldn't find anything about it that's better than other manufacturers' rackets with these specs.
      That said, it's a racket that scores well across the board, so I think it's not bad to keep as a backup.

    • Nariyuki Badminton Papa☆ミ

      Nariyuki Badminton Papa☆ミ My first Wilson

      I started badminton in middle age, so I usually used GOSEN and VICTOR 4U5G rackets as my main ones, thinking they'd be easier to maneuver.
      Partly due to age, my shoulder and elbow range of motion is worse than when I was young, and recently my elbow has felt off, with signs of tennis elbow, so I figured swinging a heavier racket compactly might be less strain than full-swinging a light one? I was looking for a head-light racket and ended up with this one.
      Honestly, I was surprised that the speed of a big swing with a 4U racket and the speed of a compact swing with a 3U racket are no different.
      I felt it's not about light rackets having faster swing speed or about head-light versus head-heavy, but that what suits you right now is best.
      I don't feel at all that it's hard to maneuver because it's heavy, or that shots are light because it's head-light...
      It was my first Wilson, but its maneuverability is really good.

      Until I came across this one, I mostly used head-heavy rackets like the 80 E-TUNE and the RECON series, but since switching to this my backhand has gotten stronger.
      It made me realize I had not really been able to handle head-heavy rackets.

      Addict (Experience:6-10 years) I think the BLAZE SX8000J SPIDER is a racket that can cover a wide area.

      I'm currently using the Wilson BLAZE SX8000J SPIDER, and it's very lightweight with a grip that fits my hand, so I think it's a very easy racket for me to handle. Its biggest appeal is that it's maneuverable and lets you cover a wide area. The feel when you hit is so pleasant that it's fun to play with.

    • Tomoyo

      Tomoyo (Experience:11-20 years) A must-have for doubles.

      The racket I'm using in matches now is the Wilson BLAZE SX8000J. What makes this racket great comes down to its excellent maneuverability in fast rallies. It's also lightweight and easy to swing, so smashes land satisfyingly. It's easy to control and helps you cover a wide area, making it a must-have for doubles. I want to keep using it.

      Tatto (Experience:6-10 years) An easy-to-use racket

      I regularly use this BLAZESX8000JSPIDER. The feel is completely different from my previous cheap racket, which surprised me. My smash speed went up too. It's a really good racket, so I highly recommend it!
