Ready-made Butterfly Wakaba 2000 racket, from the Japan Series, with excellent control and reliable speed and spin, designed to give a solid base to players learning the basic strokes. The blade has 5 plies and the handle is flared, concave in the center, the most popular style. The Wakaba rubber, with a 1.9 mm sponge, is a balanced mix of speed and spin, neither too fast nor too slow, with good spin for a high-control rubber.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%66
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.
