    User Review SummaryAI Summary
    The shuttle is praised for its flight performance close to natural feather shuttles and excellent durability, while the unique impact sound and weight require adjustment. The quality as an artificial shuttle is high, with expectations for price reduction and fine-tuning of flight characteristics.
    ■ Frequently mentioned points
    • Natural flight and feel similar to feather shuttles
    • Superior durability with feathers rarely breaking
    • Distinctive high-pitched impact sound
    • Slightly heavier feel requiring adaptation
    • High price with expectations for further reduction
    ■ Representative voices
    ▲ PositiveThis artificial shuttle offers impressive quality, with excellent durability and feathers rarely breaking during rallies. It provides nearly the same feel as natural feather shuttles with minimal degradation in flight performance.
    ▽ CriticalThe distinctive weight and high-pitched impact sound are concerning and require time to adapt. It's prone to breaking on frame shots, and the price equivalent to purchasing a tournament is problematic.

      Kerorin （Experience：6-10 years） Synthetic shuttles have come this far!

      This is a "synthetic" shuttle, different from the so-called nylon shuttles. Overall the feel is heavy, but it flies quite naturally. I tried it in a match and was bothered by the heaviness on receives and the high-pitched hitting sound that made me think my string had snapped. Still, compared to nylon shuttles, it feels far closer to a feather shuttle. The feathers don't get frayed, so unless they break, the flight doesn't deteriorate much. A few don't spin naturally, but there's little variation between shuttles. Since it doesn't break, I mostly use it for basic rallies. To be usable in matches all the time, I think it needs a little more improvement in flight and a lower price. Even though it's hard to break, a price that could buy you TOURNAMENT is a bit high. Give it a try!

      Surume （Experience：6-10 years） Durable, but

      After using it, when I looked at the feathers while serving after hitting many smashes, there was no fraying at all and it was like new. However, the sound when you hit it is a sharp "bang," which felt odd at first, and I thought my string had snapped.
      On receives too, maybe because of its distinctive weight, shots that would normally get over just clip the white tape and catch the net, so if you play with your usual feel, you'll hit the net.
      Smashes from opponents feel faster, so I think receiving is tough.
      Though the opposite could also be true

    • Hi

      Tony （Experience：6-10 years） Those who like it will really love it

      Synthetic shuttles have been increasing lately, and it feels like MIZUNO took its time and released this one when fully ready.
      It plays very naturally; you could say it's almost the same as a feather shuttle.
      Durability is decent too, and the feathers hardly ever broke during rallies.
      When you smash, it makes a popping sound so loud you'd think your string snapped, and it gets real speed. It startles you. lol

      I'll mention that it feels a bit heavy on impact, and that it decelerates just slightly less than a feather shuttle.
      Also, if you frame it, it can break in a way that's much worse than a feather shuttle just losing a few feathers.

      Still, this quality from a synthetic shuttle... if the price comes down a bit more, I think it'll be great.

      Ahhhh （Experience：More than 20 years） An evolved synthetic shuttle

      Compared to earlier synthetic shuttles, the feel has gotten closer to a real shuttle.
      The initial speed may be a little fast, but the flight itself is fine, and above all the durability is outstanding.
      However, it has a distinctive hitting sound that'll surprise you.
