Anyone using Nittaku So-Ten?

[Emin]

Anyone?
Any experience with it?
How does it compare to other inner fiber blades, especially with slightly larger head size?

Curious

I've tried it, it's definitely an allround type of blade. It doesnt have great power, like a toned down harimoto alc.

Good forehand, spinny, good feel. Backhand is similar to HL5, needs more power from the player.

Hi,

I've recently required one from TT Japan and play it with Fastarc G1 on both sides. I am not disappointed in it.

I was looking for a replacement for the Harimoto ALC which I gave to a friend a couple of years ago which I came to regret. With the Harimoto I loved the stability on blocks and it's ability to flick.

The Nittaku So Ten has more vibration in the handle but otherwise it does remind me of the Harimoto. It has less power and combined with the not so reactive G1 there are shots that won't work unless you do. But otherwise very happy with it.

Spins (open ups and loops) are great on both wings. Speed is more than enough for me.

The last blade I used I've always came back to and is the DHS B2X, which truly is fantastic too. But I am motivated to keep giving the Nittaku So Ten a go for a full season.
