Andro CSV OFF+

Awesome blade for the price! (Bought it for 30€ new, in Greece)

I purchased this blade to replace the Balsa Carbo X5, which had opened up and become useless. Initially, I thought I would use it for a couple of months and then switch to a more “high end” blade. However, after a year, I still use this blade because it performs surprisingly well. The power is at the top of OFF, not quite reaching OFF+, but the control is excellent. It is particularly effective for mid-range looping. For shots played far away from the table, it feels a bit slow and less powerful compared to other OFF+ carbon blades, and the same applies to smashes. I would prefer a more direct feel when playing shots far from the table. On the other hand, the control for close-to-the-net shots and blocks is very good. The design and craftsmanship are impressive, comparable to blades that cost four times the price.

This review is based on using Yasaka Rakza X rubbers on both sides (maximum thickness on the forehand and 2 mm on the backhand).

Overall, this is an excellent blade for all-around and offensive looping gameplay, and it offers great value for money!

Blade: Andro CSV Off+ FH: Hurricane 3 NEO 39 Degree 2.15mm BH: Tenergy 05 2.1mm

This was my very first customized blade, so I didn’t know what to expect. I was used to using a Dawei blade with quite a thick composition (7.0+ mm thickness), so I was interested in seeing how this 5-ply blade would do in terms of spin and speed. I was very surprised.

This is an EXCELLENT BLADE! Although it weighs in at only 82 grams and is an all-wood blade, its speed characteristics are amazing. I never felt that I was being outrållied. Despite being quite thin of a blade, its stiffness and hardness definitely show. Suited for playing close to the table, counter looping and driving are great, and blocks are solid.

Another big selling point is how comfortable the blade feels in hand. I don’t know how they did it, but it feels very soft when you grab the handle, yet the blade itself is sturdy and hard. When I switched to the Viscaria after this blade, I was disappointed that the Viscaria was not as comfortable as the Andro. The only reason I switched to Viscaria is due to the higher flex, which I wanted for its looping qualities.

Overall, an excellent product, and for so cheap as well, the results you get are amazing. I think it is the best blade I’ve used so far in terms of ease of use. I’ve had others try out my blade, and they also find it very easy to use. It’s fast but not super fast like the carbon blades.

The individual known as [https://revspin.net/user/karakankaczy.html](https://revspin.net/user/karakankaczy.html) has created multiple accounts under different names to manipulate ratings and promote preferred equipment. This behavior is likely driven by immaturity and a lack of sportsmanship.

Regarding the Andro blade, it has been found to be inconsistent in terms of quality. Two blades of the same model exhibited a significant weight difference of 10 grams. This suggests poor manufacturing standards and a lack of attention to detail. Additionally, the blade’s performance is unreliable, making it unsuitable for serious table tennis players.

It appears that Andro intended this blade as a transitional tool for young players progressing from beginner to intermediate levels. However, the inconsistent quality and unpredictable performance make it an unsatisfactory choice for both beginners and experienced players alike. Andro has produced numerous other blades that surpass this particular model in terms of quality and performance.

I have to say, my blade is only 75 grams, so it is a really easy blade. I made it with Rakza7soft weighing 165 grams. The blade is really light and fast, with enough control, but sometimes I have problems with consistency. I hit the same shot twice in a round, and sometimes it is really different. Not a bad blade for beginner players. It was cheap for me at 26 euros. But like all wood blades at 75 grams, it is awesome and a quick blade.

Totally overrated. That, or I tried a bad blade. Yes that is correct OlleOst https://revspin.net/user/karakankaczy.html is a fraud, and have been reported. He should have at least 10 profiles voting for the same things he likes. Somebody must stop him. Here is another of his ratings: https://revspin.net/table-tennis-blade-reviews.php?user=tomiyy.

The blade has a good feel in the hand and is very well-balanced. It is also very light, which makes it easy to maneuver.

The blade is made of high-quality materials and is very durable. It has a carbon fiber surface that gives it a lot of power and speed. The blade also has a thick core that provides good control.

Overall, this is a great blade for all levels of play. It is affordable, durable, and provides good power, speed, and control.

I bought this blade for $30 (worth $60) on tabletennis11, and nothing can beat it at that price. It is incredibly lightweight, making it an excellent choice for players of any level. Despite its speed and power, the blade maintains a surprising amount of control.

A perfect choice for modern attackers, this blade offers surprisingly high control for an off+ option. Looping from a comfortable distance is effortless, yet drop shots and fast pushes remain within reach. Flicks are particularly easy to execute, especially on the backhand side.

Compared to the Andro Kinetic Record off-, this blade boasts increased stiffness and speed, while maintaining comparable control. With soft rubbers, this blade may even provide a slight advantage in control. Its lightweight construction balances well with heavier rubbers.

Overall, this remarkable blade shines as a versatile fit for both controlled loopers and attackers. It has earned my unwavering admiration.

Fast with very good spin and control. You can play with it close and out of the table, but I think the best is close. In the short game, it’s good. Spin and control are the best for it, but you can go fast if you decide. The throw angle is middle-high. This blade is for players who have a spinny game.

If you want to play only fast, put two rubbers like Victas 01, Tenergy 80, and you’ll see the real power of this blade. If you want spin, put Rasant, Rasant Turbo, Bluefire M1, or Calibra Tour M. It is light, very well balanced, and cheap. Its small size (15X15.5) is a pleasure to play with.
