  • I'm an advanced-to-intermediate player with about 10 years of experience.
    I wasn't interested in MIZUNO rackets, but I bought this one because Kenichi Hayakawa uses it.
    It feels quite light in the hand, and the shaft is stiff, so I don't think players without much power will be able to hit deep at all.
    I'd say it's a racket specialized for attacking with precise shots like drives, receives and front court play.
    On the other hand, you can't hit heavy smashes, and it's hard to return shots when you're under pressure.
    So I don't recommend it for singles. I also don't recommend it for people who like playing rear court in doubles. I think it's the perfect racket for people who are good at front court play or receiving in doubles.

  • First of all, it's head-heavy, but not that heavy. It's fairly maneuverable, and it's easy to swing.
    The sweet spot seems unusually small. If you miss the sweet spot, the shuttle doesn't go anywhere. Even if you hit the sweet spot, the explosive power isn't much.
    The feel is hollow.
    Both the frame and the shaft are stiff, and my elbow hurts every time I use it.
    It's a really poorly made racket.
