Customer review for Nittaku Acoustic - Chinese Penhold

External Review for Nittaku Acoustic on August 1, 2011

I bought the Nittaku acoustic, along with 2 reasonably hard rubbers; Omega IV Asia (2.0mm, FH), and Omega IV Pro (2.0mm) for backhand. The style i play with relies on slapping for attack ("Driving") and with topspin often to initiate the attack. The bat allows for a lot of spin, but also has a lot of pace, and you get a nice feel for where you want to hit it for different shots, and the flared version is flared, but not TOO flared. Furthermore, despite me being ranked very badly, I upset 5 people in the 3rd day of using this bat (along with the new rubber), including a top 10 player in the country for u18's. This bat is excellent; spinny yet quick, and the very top mens players love it here too. It's great for looping, great for driving, and truly excellent for serving (with the rubbers i have). Definitely will be holding on to this for many years to come. Can buy for $140~USD at presports (The sites currency is ringgits, and any prices are based off the conversion rate to ringgits, so expect this USD price to decrease lots when America sorts out its 'debt crisis'). I also immediately beat people 3-0 whom i haven't beaten, at my club, in many years during the major tournament, so this bat definitely had a very large say; slappers/drivers (no spin attack shots) can do no better, whilst spin shots such as loops are still incredibly spinny and accurate - Great for service.
