Nakama S-9 Butterfly

Very goodUpdated on 10/05/2026
Version · 14 optionsNakama S-9Change

Ready-made Butterfly Nakama S-9 racket, with a 5-ply wood blade and a soft touch on impact: it flexes a little and holds the ball longer than carbon-reinforced blades. The Pan Asia rubbers, with a 2.1 mm sponge, are entry-level because they prioritize control, but still have enough speed and spin. It is a combination of good speed and spin with superior control. The handle is flared, concave in the center.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%71
Approval from players35%65

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
