    X rips everything. Exercise absolute advantage for fast rally.

    【Renewal point original CUSTOMEDGE】 Inherited basic design which was highly evaluated generation. Changing the balance point slightly to the top light feeling without changing the whole weight or the shaft flex. As a result, the swing balance became lighter, and it became a model specialized more for the drive rally than the first generation. (CUSTOM EDGE Version 2.0 TYPE X)

    User Review SummaryAI Summary

    ■ Frequently mentioned points
    • Lightweight with excellent swing-through performance
    • Easy to hit drives and pushes
    • Hard shaft provides stable face control
    • Great maneuverability in high-speed rallies
    • Pleasant and satisfying ball strike sound
    ■ Representative voices
    ▲ PositiveThe exquisite balance and light, easy swing-through make it easy to hit far and perform well on drives, receives, and pushes. Optimal for advancing to the front court, making match strategy easier with excellent handling.
    ▽ CriticalDifficult for beginners, and the smash power is not as strong as recent smash-focused rackets, so it should be considered as a continuous hitting type racket.

      kazu （Experience：11-20 years） Really easy to use!!

      Its main feature is a very finely tuned balance that's slightly head-heavy, so drives, receives, pushes and so on are quite easy to hit, and since the racket is light, its maneuverability is great too.

      The feel is a little on the stiff side, but it's light and easy to swing, so it's easy to hit the shuttle far.

      Smashes are easy to hit too, but it doesn't feel like it produces as much power as recent rackets that market themselves on smashes, so I think it's a racket for firing off smash after smash. If anything, I'd say it's more of a doubles racket.

      It makes a high-pitched sound when you hit, which feels really good!!

      It's been discontinued, but if it's re-released or a similar racket comes out, I think I'd buy it!!

      It's a really great racket!!

      Hisato （Experience：6-10 years） It shines in high-speed rallies.

      It's a bit on the stiff side but light and easy to swing, making drives easy to hit. However, it's difficult for beginners and is probably better suited to intermediate players and above. It's great for intense exchanges, of course, and surprise shots are also easy to hit, so it helps broaden your range of play.

      MOMOKO （Experience：6-10 years） Easy to handle

      You can smash with a great sound. It also makes it easy to deal with drive exchanges and push attacks.
      It is easy to use in high-speed exchanges, so I recommend it.
      You can counter smashes out in front, so it is easy to handle.
      Many people around me were using it too.
      Thanks to the stiff shaft, the racket face is stable

      rhmnd 531 （Experience：4-5 years） For handling pushes: GOSEN CUSTOM EDGE Ver.2.0 TYPE-X

      This is the CUSTOM EDGE Ver.2.0 TYPE-X, and smashes feel good and come off with a nice sound. But the best point, I think, is that it made it easier to deal with drive exchanges and with push attacks, which I'm weak at. It was an easy racket to use in fast, high-speed exchanges. I also choke up on the grip when I move forward, and thanks to that, controlling the match was very easy when I moved up to play at the front. I could hit down the opponent's drives and counter smashes at the front, so it's an easy racket to handle. It handles clears and such without any problem, and it's the perfect racket for me since I like moving up front.

      Taizo （Experience：More than 20 years） Requires power

      Lately a lot of people around me have been using it, so I borrowed one. I thought it would have roughly even balance, but maybe thanks to the edgy frame and stiff shaft, it swung well. The stiff shaft makes the string bed stable, but the feel is on the firm side, so I thought it requires power.
