Donic Persson Powerplay Senso V1

For me, this is a do-it-all blade, suitable for players from beginner to advanced levels depending on the rubbers used.

I currently use Rakza 7 Max on the forehand and Rakza 7 Soft Max on the backhand. This combination works well for a modern topspin game with good control.

It should be up there with all the popular blades.

I have been using this blade for several years and find it very satisfactory.

I was going to buy a more expensive blade, but since I no longer compete in tournaments, I decided to get this one.

It is a much newer version of my previous blade, and I’m very happy with it. I like the control I get from it, plus the ball comes out fast.

Good value 7-ply blade. The finish is decent, especially considering the price. It features a Koto outer layer and is surprisingly thin, with very little vibration.

The wood seems very good.

For players who seek an offensive style of play with a high degree of control.

Fast delivery, perfect control, and good speed.

This combination of high control and speed, especially when paired with Acuda S2 and Bluefire M2 rubbers, felt perfect for me.

I am using this blade with Bluefire M3, and I find it very similar in control to my previous Diablo Senso, but with more power. I am very satisfied.

I am using this blade with Bluefire M3 on both sides.

I’m getting more power on smashes with no noticeable difference in control compared to the Waldner Diablo Senso, which I have been using for several years.

This is the best 7-ply wood blade I’ve tested. It offers a perfect feel and excellent control.

When paired with tensor rubbers, it’s fast enough to deliver powerful kill shots. A treasure to keep for sure!

Good price with high quality.

On-time delivery.

This blade offers exceptional control. While I had to sacrifice some speed compared to my previous 729 Bomb blade, I gained increased consistency and stayed in rallies longer, resulting in more consistent wins. After my initial practice, I noticed a slight decline in my kill shot capability, but my overall play improved significantly. The blade provides excellent feedback and boasts a more extensive sweet spot than the Bomb. Further use will allow for a more comprehensive evaluation.

Despite my initial enthusiasm, I never fully connected with this blade. The oval-shaped flared handle, with its wide base, prevented it from fitting comfortably in my hand. I also struggled to adapt my playing style to this blade. As an offensive player, I prioritize looping from both sides. However, I encountered difficulties performing opening loops against underspin. Despite using the same rubbers as on my 729 Bomb blade, where I faced no such issues, I experienced problems with this blade. I have since switched to the Donic Dicon, aiming for a balance between speed and feel. My search for the ideal blade with both exceptional feel and speed continues.

The best blade I have ever tried offers awesome control, amazing loops, and an outstanding feel. It is best for players looking for offensive play with a lot of control.

Excellent blade with good speed and great control. Perfect for intermediate and advanced players, well-suited for those who have been playing for at least six months.

This is not a blade for beginners, and SENSO V1 can cause sport injuries to your wrist, like wrist sprain.
