    User Review SummaryAI Summary
    This racket is characterized by an extreme head-heavy design focused on offensive play, with high praise for smash power and flight distance. However, evaluations vary significantly due to the weight of the swing and difficulty in maneuverability depending on play style and skill level.
    ■ Frequently mentioned points
    • Excellent smash power and flight distance
    • Delivers 3U-equivalent power despite being 4U
    • Head-heavy design difficult for beginners
    • Stiff shaft makes light shots ineffective
    • Attack-focused with difficult net play control
    ■ Representative voices
    ▲ PositiveSmashes almost always connect decisively, providing power despite being lightweight, making backhand smashes highly effective. With commitment to aggressive play, this racket becomes your perfect partner.
    ▽ CriticalPoor swing-through and excessively heavy head result in poor maneuverability. Unlike the previous model, it creates an awkward hitting feel.

      jaya （Experience：6-10 years） A typical power racket

      The head weight is really effective, so shots travel farther than expected. Because of that, judging distance on connecting shots and controlling clears, drops, and receives was difficult, and at first it felt hard to handle. The face is extremely stable, and the shuttle just flies off as long as you make contact, so much that the sweet spot hardly matters.
      This racket's true strength is hard hitting. It's 4U, but it carries the power of a head-heavy 3U, and the hold is good too, so you can feel the shuttle getting squashed, which feels great.
      I think it suits play like Ahsan and Setiawan's: spread the shuttle around with hard hits and let your partner finish, or let the front court player attack and then put away loose lifts with a hard hit.
      It seems good for singles too.
      I think it's a racket that deserves more recognition.

      sleepy-panda （Experience：More than 20 years） MIZUNO's version of the Z series, beloved by brutes??

      Lately, with 3U rackets I'd been getting jammed by university varsity players, so I was struggling to improve my receive and overall maneuverability without sacrificing the quality of my smashes and drives, and that's when it turned out a friend happened to own this one. I borrowed it and hit with it, and all my worries vanished. Smashes almost always win the point, and receives are no problem as long as you know they're coming. The best part is that it's quite easy to swing, and it puts power behind the shot despite being light, so backhand smashes are pretty usable too. In other words it's quite head-heavy, and if that's not an issue for you, I felt this is the only choice. You could call it MIZUNO's version of the Z series. At the main draw of the All Japan corporate championships my racket and the shuttle didn't match well, so I wish I'd come across this sooner. Anyway, if you're ready to go all in on attack, I think this racket will have your back. A few drawbacks(?): shots where you just block the shuttle don't carry as far as you'd expect. You need to swing at least a little. I think that's due to the stiff shaft, and it's hopeless especially when you miss the sweet spot. Also, the hitting sound feels kind of damp. I guess it can't be helped at 23 lbs. But if you hit the smash properly, it has so much speed and power that even the hitter is surprised. Why did they discontinue it?

      Take brother （Experience：6-10 years）

      Impression

      It's a top-heavy racket that flexes a little

      If you can make use of the flex,
      it's an unbeatable racket


      So smashes, drops and clears are amazing, especially smashes
      They're great

      Drives, receives, hairpins

      Hard to control, but you get used to it. If your counters work, you might be able to break the opponent down

      Receiving is hard, but since it flexes, if you hit it cleanly it goes nicely to the back.


      I think it's a racket that attacks with the weight of each individual shot, rather than with continuous attacks like YONEX's ASTROX.

      I hear the maneuverability is poor, but I see that as a plus

      Heavy, flexible, and the shuttle drops steeply. If you stay conscious of it, you can make up for it;

      I think that's the kind of racket it is.

      For strings, YONEX BG66 FORCE

      It makes the shuttle drop, so it's a good match, but
      it broke in about 3 days. (>_<)

      I'd go with FORCE over ULTIMAX


      A racket that drops the shuttle with a string that drops the shuttle:
      the strongest combo, I think.

    • Tino Minton

      Tino Minton （Experience：11-20 years） Power smashes even with a 4U

      This is the racket Mohammad Ahsan uses, and if you watch him on YouTube and elsewhere, he hits insane smashes, so I thought "I want to hit like that too!" and bought it.
      It's a racket for people who want to smash hard and often.
      Even though it's 4U, it feels as heavy as a 3U. There aren't many rackets that are head-heavy with a fairly flexible shaft, so I think it'll feel strange when you swing it.
      In return, the power when it holds the shuttle is incredible.
      Even when you swing lightly, other rackets go "whoosh whoosh," but this one goes "vroom vroom," and I get the feeling they've put their effort in the opposite direction of YONEX's recent thin, easy-swinging frames.
      As expected, you'll be late on receives, so it's not suited to women.

    • Badminton Guy

      Badminton Guy （Experience：4-5 years） The racket that changed my badminton life

      I think this racket really boosts your attacking ability.
      I originally played front court, but I bought this racket as a chance to switch to rear court.
      At first you have to get used to it, but once you do, your smashes get really fast, and I feel I'm properly fulfilling my role in the rear court.
      Why not pick up this racket and try something new too?

    • Mole

      Mole （Experience：4-5 years） I tried it out

      Since it is 4U, I think it is easy to handle for people who usually use head-heavy rackets.
      Smashes are very easy to hit too
      However, the shaft feels stiff, so people without much power might find it hard to hit lobs deep.
