Hello everyone! Since 2010 I used to play Timo boll all + but it was a little bit slow, especially on the BH side. I chose this one and it is just great, there is a lot of control with perfect speed for me. The speed feels like off-, but control is like all+ . This blade gives a quite significant vibration to understand how long the ball stays on the racket and you can play controllable and push hard at the same time.

I chose a set of rubbers with Tibhar Genius 2.0 medium hardness sponge for BH and 5Q Sound for FH with soft sponge 2.1.
