  • I used the 3U.
    The shaft is on the stiff side, with a compact frame and even balance.

    You can hit fast smashes with real speed. The swing speed is also excellent, it feels like your swing gets faster, and drives and receives are easy too.

    Since the shaft is on the stiff side, it suits people who want to keep attacking with hard hits.

    It's an all-round racket you can use in singles and in doubles, whether in the front court or rear court.
    The swing speed is outstanding!

  • I used both the 3U and the 4U. It has a flexible feel, so clears are easy. The repulsion is moderate, there are few quirks, and it's easy to use.

    The 3U is head-heavy leaning toward even balance, and lets you hit sharp smashes. Maneuverability is average. In YONEX terms, it's balanced like a more flexible ARCSABER 11.

    The 4U is easy to maneuver and suited to the front court. It's for doubles. Smashes become lighter, but receiving is very easy.

    The 3U is ideal for both singles and doubles, and the 4U for doubles. It handles high tension.

  • I used the 3U.
    The shaft is on the stiff side, it has even balance, and the swing speed is on the good side.

    It has a compact frame, so the face feels a bit small, but the repulsion is excellent.
    Compared with other rackets, I feel my drives and smashes get more repulsion and speed too.

    Maneuverability is also on the good side, so it can be used in the front court in doubles.

    Since the face is a bit small, compared with rackets with a standard face size you might notice the small face, especially when receiving, but the springy feel is satisfying.

  • I used the 4U. The shaft is stiff and it's quite head-heavy. Since it's 4U, it's relatively easy to maneuver.

    You can tune it with parts, so you can set the head weight to your liking. The swing speed is average.

    Drives and pushes are easy too. Smashes felt like they dipped a bit. There isn't much hold feel; the feel is a crisp 'thwack,' which feels great when you hit hard.
    With the 4U, you don't get too tired even after long use, so you can use it in the front court or rear court in doubles, and in singles too.

  • I used the 4U. The shaft and feel are on the soft side. The balance felt even.

    It's light, easy to maneuver, has good swing speed, and makes drives and receives easy, so it's for front court players in doubles.

    Smashes are lacking, but it's still easy to keep attacking by aiming at the lines.

    The design is cute too; it's a racket for women.
