Flagship of the control-oriented Halbertec line (launched February 2024): a stiff 6.6 mm shaft on an even-balance frame, used by Yuta Watanabe. Suited to technically solid players who win through placement and speed rather than raw head weight.

  • Even balance keeps defence and net play fast
  • Stiff slim shaft for precise shots
  • Well-damped, stable frame
  • Stiff shaft needs good timing
  • Less free smash power than head-heavy Axforce rackets
