Atemi 2000

Looks nice, well made, very light, but that is where it ends. You hit the side on the table, gets dinked in even though it has nice side protection. Control is non-existent, rubber and sponge is hard so it catapults the ball on block behind the table. Spin is mediocre at best, throw angle is high, forget about learning topspin with it. Thickness of the blade 6mm, but I couldn't feel the ball on it for nothing. And the worst part is glue that they use to glue the rubbers. I don't know what you need to do in order to not damage the blade and the rubber when trying to separate them. Absolute tragedy racket since you can't even replace rubbers on it. I was doing way better on the cheapest Pongori premade racket - 5$ one. Right now I am using self made racket which I built at 2/3 of the cost of this ATEMI and it is miles better. Had to give it control rating 3 out of 10 because Revspin won't even allow 2 but to me control is 2!

Worth its money, lacking some control i d say, if you want to develop any further than you are as a beginner i d rather recommend buying blade and rubber separately.

Good beginner to intermediate racket. A bit faster and spinnier than Atemi 1000
