Blade description:

The Nittaku Adelie is a distinguished table tennis blade that stands out for its exceptional craftsmanship and performance. Constructed as a 7-ply blade, it features a combination of limba wood on the outer layers and ayous on the inner layers. This composition not only enhances responsiveness but also contributes to a unique feel, allowing players to express their skills effectively. Weighing in at approximately 85 grams and with a thickness of 6.2mm, the Adelie strikes a balance between agility and stability, making it suitable for a wide range of playing styles.

In terms of flexibility, many players have noted the Adelie’s impressive amount of flex, especially noted during backhand strokes. This characteristic, paired with its firm construction, allows for remarkable control—rated an impressive 8 out of 10 by users. The blade’s moderate stiffness (3.8) and hardness (5.2) contribute to its ability to provide both power and touch, making it ideal for players who emphasize spin and control in their game. The comfortable handle, akin to other Nittaku models, further enhances the user experience, allowing for prolonged play with minimal discomfort.

For those exploring alternatives, the Nittaku Adelie is often compared to the Stiga Clipper and the Latika blade, both of which offer different flavors of playability and touch. However, the Adelie excels with its combination of control and spin, especially when paired with modern rubbers, including tacky varieties popular in aggressive looping strategies. Overall, the Nittaku Adelie has garnered praise for its ability to accommodate both technical and aggressive players while delivering consistent and high-quality performance.
