Madera muy económica con buena relación calidad-precio (aproximadamente 8€). Su peso ronda los 80 gramos. El puño es largo y grueso, adecuado para manos grandes. Tiene un buen acabado, aunque podría mejorarse ligeramente. Su rendimiento es normal, sin destacar en ningún aspecto. Es una madera indicada para jugadores ocasionales o principiantes sin pretensiones.

My first blade, and I’ve found it perfect for me. It’s light with good control. I don’t experience the hollow sounds that I found with my friend’s Milkway E5, which I didn’t like. Overall, it’s a good value for the price.

However, for those starting out, it might be better to start with a slow rubber like Sriver on the forehand (FH) and backhand (BH) sides. I plan to use an Eastfield Allwood blade after this one.

Weight is around 88g.

It is rated as ALL+, but is faster and bouncier than Butterfly Primorac (OFF-). It has good control, with a nice handle.

Ball feedback is less than Primorac, but there is a solid knock which gives it a stiff and a bit hard feeling.

With C-3 blade, people have given feedback of a lot of vibrations, however there were minimal vibrations with this blade (729 C-2).

Overall, good quality for the price you pay.
