      kazu （Experience：11-20 years） The Control

      Bought it because the design caught my eye.
      Just as advertised, there is a strong sense of catching the shuttle before hitting it!!
      The repulsion is pretty strong too, not bad!
      As for swing speed, to me it felt like it caught the air with a "whoosh," so it was not great.
      I think the cause is the solid joint between the head and shaft, but thanks to that the control also seems better, so it has its pros and cons.
      I really like the design, but I do not want it to get dirty, so I rarely use it lol

      Datsu （Experience：4-5 years） Good

      These are my impressions after test-hitting the 3U.
      As a 3U with even balance, I felt a little weight. But I thought it is a racket that swings easily and has excellent control. For all-rounders who can do everything rather than having a very distinctive style, I think every shot can be hit just as intended. It is pure white, and the design is beautiful.

      Ruto-san （Experience：2-3 years） ALTIUS TOUR

      What I thought after trying the ALTIUS TOUR
      The racket has an even balance, so for me, having always used head-heavy rackets, I felt smashes lacked a satisfying punch.
      Other than that, it was very easy to use.
      I'd like to know what the new ALTIUS TOUR J is like.

    • Hagare

      Hagare （Experience：2-3 years） I think it's a well-balanced racket.

      It's a well-balanced racket overall. The feel and swing speed are especially good, and it's suited to short and long matches, offense and defense alike. It's very reasonably priced too. It doesn't break easily even with hard practice, so I think it's suitable for beginners who train hard.

      Taimu-kun （Experience：4-5 years） White… looks pretty cool

      I bought it because I was drawn to the design. It's pure white and looks cool. I've been having fun swinging it around. I think this racket is really excellent when it comes to control. The stability is outstanding, so I'd say it's suited for singles. That said, the swing feels a bit sluggish, but considering that this sluggishness is what gives it stability and control, I guess it can't be helped. Smashes also had more impact than I expected, which was nice

      murara3318 （Experience：11-20 years） Supple and stable

      I've used YONEX rackets for many years, but I'd never come across one this easy to use. It's light, so it's easy to swing, and the feel is clean while still making it easy to hit heavy shots. The matte white and refined design is simple yet cool. It's a racket I can confidently recommend to both singles and doubles players.

    • Tako

      Tako （Experience：11-20 years） Light and a Nozomi Okuhara model, so it's reassuring

      The ALTIUS TOUR is Nozomi Okuhara's model and performs well in matches and more. I especially like that it lets you control the shuttle well, for example by improving the sense of shuttle hold and reducing frame twist at impact.
