I have been using this blade for 10 years. It is a slow medium-hard blade. It plays well with soft rubbers. The blade has a small sweet spot and is slower compared to newer defensive blades. It is appropriate for variable game play or modern defense and half distance play. Dimensions: 157×155 mm.

I have used this blade for two months now. It is a great modern defender blade because I can easily control my chops in the backhand using Dawei 388 D1 and XiYing 999 in my forehand. I also do not have a hard time executing top spins.

Nice choice for pimpled forehand/backhand and hard Chinese rubber (I use DHS PF-4 and DAWEI 388 C1.)
