#1 — August 2022

One of the best blades I ever played with. Every training session, I borrow it from my friend.

The combination of Tibhar Bluegrip C2 on forehand, and Tibhar K1 Hybrid on backhand, is very good.

#2 — February 2019

This blade is expensive, but it is a dream to play with. The feeling is indescribable and must be experienced firsthand.

#3 — July 2017

The best blade that you can imagine. Control and feeling are outstanding. You can masterfully manipulate the ball with this blade. Speed and spin are fabulous. You can do whatever you want with this blade, from delicate touch shots to powerful smashes.

The blade consists of 6 layers, measuring 6.7 mm in thickness.

The two central layers are made of Kiso Hinoki, oriented vertically. The two adjacent layers are also made of Kiso Hinoki, but oriented horizontally. The two outer layers are made of walnut wood.

Despite not being particularly light (92 grams), it is a well-balanced blade.

The Kiso Hinoky provides significant power for fast shots and excellent control for blocks.

Spin is very pronounced when executing topspins or backspins.

This blade is not suitable for use with long pimple rubbers, even when combined with a frictionless rubber like the MEGA-BLOCK (1.0 mm).

On my forehand side, I use a DONIC BARACUDA (maximum thickness), which proves to be a highly effective combination for generating topspins with ample spin.

The only drawback is its high price, but the playing experience it provides is exceptional.

Please excuse any errors in my English.
