    • Kurorin

      Kurorin (Experience:6-10 years) Very quirky

      Since it's the racket used by Matsutomo, it's one you often see in women's doubles at municipal tournaments. The metallic pink coloring on a white base really stands out.
      However, my impression after borrowing it and hitting with it is that it's quite head-heavy and the shaft is very flexible, a really "quirky" racket. If you swing at the net imagining Matsutomo's graceful front-court play, you get a solid sense of contact, and above all, because the head is heavy, you need to be very conscious about bringing it back and holding the racket up. It's a 5U, but honestly I couldn't feel that it's a maneuverable racket.
      When I hit a smash, the head really whipped through and I went "Whoa!", but since the shaft is flexible, I think you can use the flex even if you're not a power hitter. The frame is solid, so control is actually on the good side, and if you can hit firmly at the net, you can also hit strong pushes that drop. If you're conscious of using the head, you can also hit defensive clears deep when you're in trouble.
      As you'd expect from a racket chosen by a medalist, despite its cute paint job, it felt like a racket "for intermediate to advanced women who understand head-heavy balance and can swing properly."

    • Su-chan

      Su-chan (Experience:2-3 years) My favorite racket

      With the FIERCE line, ever since I bought the 8000J I've used it so much that I hardly use other rackets, and this one is also really easy to handle.
      Even though the racket itself is light, maybe because it's head-heavy, you can really hit your smashes hard.
      Smash receives and clears are also very easy to hit, and even at my level I can control counters against smashes precisely and put the shuttle down exactly where I intended.
      If the thin grip doesn't bother you, I think men would find it easy to use too.
      For me, it's the racket that got me even more hooked on badminton, and one that makes me want to keep using it forever.

    • Ten-chan

      Ten-chan (Experience:6-10 years) A racket that lets you play one level higher.

      It's a racket so well balanced overall that even pro player Misaki Matsutomo is a fan of it. In every aspect, including swing and maneuverability, it delivers "one level higher" quality. I don't think it's an exaggeration to call it truly "a racket for leveling up."

    • Ama-chan

      Ama-chan (Experience:More than 20 years) Matsutomo model

      The overall balance of the racket is good, and it's easy to control. The swing is light and it's easy to build head speed, so your shots come out fast. I mainly play doubles, and it's easy to control whether I'm in the front court or the rear court, and easy to vary the pace, so it's an easy racket to handle. The frame is sturdy too and doesn't scratch easily.

    • Shin

      Shin (Experience:6-10 years) My experience with the FIERCE CX9000J CHERRY BLOSSOM

      Its biggest feature is high control. The shaft is on the flexible side, so it's probably suited to people without much strength. It's fairly light, but the head is slightly heavy and the shaft flexes, so you can get plenty of power. The sweet spot isn't wide, so it may take some time to get comfortable using it.

    • Shin

      Shin (Experience:4-5 years) My experience with the Wilson FIERCE CX 9000J

      First of all, it has excellent control and a flexible shaft, so I felt it suits men without much power like me. It has the advantage of making it easy to drop lobs deep into the back of the court. The weight is 5U, but it's built top-heavy, so I felt the weight was just right. The sweet spot felt slightly narrow, so it will probably take some time to get used to.

    • Pocky

      Pocky (Experience:6-10 years) Easy to use and I love it.

      I wanted a good racket, and when I looked online this one was recommended, so I bought it. The design is nice and I can hit good shots, so I'm glad I bought it. It's a racket I recommend so much that I've even told my friends about it.
