Awesome blade. It might be a little expensive if you’re just looking for something fast, as you can get that for a lot cheaper. It’s got good speed, a little better control, and some flex to add a bit of dwell time. It feels great to hit with, and the handle is very nice too, giving a good grip on the blade. I can twiddle much better than with my other blades.

I wouldn’t mind a slightly larger racket head, since it’s not meant to be a super fast, purely offensive blade. I either chop with short or long pips on the backhand, and I wouldn’t need to cut rubbers that have been on slightly bigger offensive blades. But that’s just my preference, and doesn’t make a big difference.

So overall, it’s a great feeling blade with a very nice balance between speed and control. I do wonder if you could get something quite similar for a little less money though. I paid about $50.

Nice blade, fast especially with tensor rubbers. The light weight is great for thicker rubber. Very comfortable anatomic handle.

It seems odd that this blade is only offered in an anatomical grip. Not ideal for grandma or small children.

Great for mid-distance offense.

I love this blade; this is what I currently use. It has great control, awesome for looping and has quite a bit of power. The supercore handle really makes it feel amazing as well.
