What players say

Liked 4 sources

The LX 800 Tour is a limited, heavier build of the LX 800 platform (285g/325mm vs. the standard frame's sub-9oz build), aimed at players who liked the LX 800's comfort but wanted more stability behind their swing. The small pool of hands-on playtests describe a surprisingly soft, absorbent feel for a stiff-rated frame, with enough heft to drive the ball flat and deep with confidence, though testers flag noticeable post-impact vibration. Coverage is thin and mostly limited to Japanese gear blogs around its 2026 limited release, so treat this as early, small-sample impressions rather than a broad consensus.

Best for

  • Intermediate to advanced players wanting more stability than the standard LX 800
  • Players upgrading from lightweight power frames who miss plow-through
  • Doubles players who hit flat and deliberately rather than swing big
  • Veteran/older players wanting easy pace without a whippy, light frame

Pros

  • Feels notably soft and absorbent at impact despite a stiff frame rating, per playtesters
  • Added weight (285g/325mm) gives a more solid, planted, confident hit than the standard LX 800
  • 110 sq in head and 16x18 pattern still deliver an easy, forgiving sweet spot with accessible depth and spin
  • Handles both aggressive flat drives and slice/defensive shots according to reviewer notes

Cons

  • Post-impact vibration is noticeable enough that reviewers recommend a dampener as standard
  • Long effective string length can bleed power when polyester strings snap back, per one tester
  • Heavier than most 110 sq in frames, which may not suit players who chose the LX line for its lightness
  • Very limited release with almost no English-language or forum coverage to confirm broader consensus

Voices

The feel is quite soft (打球感はかなり柔らかいです), and the added weight and rigidity together give a sense of security when hitting.

Vibration after impact is quite noticeable, so it's best to treat a dampener as standard equipment.

The weight allows for solid, confident strikes; it's a spec veteran players and deliberate hitters alike can use with peace of mind.
