    Collection note: Level conflict: the Details list says 'Advanced', but the description says 'supporting your progression as an intermediate player'. Shape conflict: the Details list says 'Round' and the description says 'Its round shape', but the short blurb next to the price says 'a large Oversize Diamond shape, ideal for the intermediate player'. That blurb names 'Cross it team 2026' without 'Light', so it may have been copied from the sibling model. Balance is stated only as 'Even', which was read as medium; it is not one of the standard balance words. No firmness (touch or hardness) line is given; 'Soft' appears only in the foam name 'Eva Soft Performance'. No frame material or player is stated. The Spin Blade Decal is listed as an effect, but the page does not describe a rough surface.
