    The racket is highly praised for its lightweight design and excellent swing-through performance, with strong evaluations for basic shots like receives and clears.

      Koa （Experience：4-5 years） Takes some knack

      It's light and very easy to swing, and receiving felt especially easy. The repulsion is good and it's easy to bring the racket back, so I could return shots without putting in much power. Same with clears. But I felt smashes might take a certain knack. With the stiff shaft and easy swing, it was off from my usual smash feel, and I felt I wasn't handling it well. I've only just started using it, though, so I hope I can get the hang of it. I thought it was a good racket that can shine in both singles and doubles.

      daizu Easy to receive with

      Above all, receiving is easy, and there's none of the problem you'd worry about most, where a stiff shaft means the shuttle won't fly. Lobs and clears go deep. Smashes also get good speed and angle thanks to how easily it swings. It's so good I wonder if there's any better racket out there. I thought it was an all-rounder you can use for both singles and doubles

      This is the first time I've bought a GOSEN racket (it's a collaboration racket); it's light and easy to use.
