Improved Hinoki-Carbon blade of 7.0 mm thickness.
High power, comfortable feel, and all-round capability.

The basic construction of STRATO is based on that of our classic carbon blades such as SPEED OFF++ and POWER OFF+. But, replacement of older carbon with newly developed ENERGY CARBON realized another level of performance and feel. Improved efficiency of energy due to the lower damping of new material makes more powerful strokes. Further it gives improved control. KISO HINOKI of improved quality is used as top layers, and provides very comfortable and mild feel. This improvement gives STRATO the ability of all-round play though it is very fast blade. Topspin is more stable than players expect, and draws very sharp trajectory with good control. If a player can become accustom to the high speed, he/she will be able to perform every technique with ease.

For the speed rating, this blade has good control. Realy shines from mid to far distances and near for flat drives off of mistakes from you opponent.

Faster than but similar feel to Garaydia ZLC. Hinoki layer for feel, carbon for speed. Due to increased speed, practice restraint if putting on faster tensor rubbers. Can get away with putting on tacky chinese rubbers, the speed of the blade gives the catapult feel. Excellent control.

Off+, Fast, balanced weight and feels light. Need more control when paired with fast rubbers like Andro Rasanter and Nittaku Fastarc G1. DHS Hurricane 3 Neo 40°-41° 2.15mm is good enough for FH, reducing blade speed, increasing control and spin. For BH rubber, you can use European or Japanese rubber with a hardness of 47.5° and a thickness of 2.0. This blade is less hard for some people.

Pear shaped head, really cool for fast swing backhand loop. Little vibration though.
