Another total rewrite since I have nothing better to do. The 8.0 is just for the rep. I sprayed it with a few coats of hairspray so it feels stiff. Although others say it’s soft, with FL II 0.5, there is a very low bounce.

I weighed both of my MPs and one was 84g and the other was 94g.

Now, is it slower than the BBC All? I’ve changed my mind again and gone back to my original opinion: my MPs appear a notch faster!

Update: I switched back to MP with 837 1.0 FH, p1r ox BH as my slower 755ox+toxic was just too slow for the better guys. I saw immediate results including more backspin with p1r. This combo is so fun to use as it causes tons of disruption.

I have a TSP P1r curl with 1.3 and a Joola Express 2. It provides awesome control and sends a very flat chop back. It is very hard for someone to loop more than 3 in a row. The only bad thing is the handle, which is kind of small.

The blade is not as soft as many people believe. This softness comes from the length of the blade, not the composition. It is a great blade for any type of defender.
