This is a true 7-ply gem. The best all-wood blade you can ever get. Brilliant ball feedback, lightweight, and superior Nittaku build quality. FL handle is super comfy, just like G Rev, suitable for large hands.

Used by Jack ove Gabrys. Pure gold.
This blade is a great choice for any player who is looking for a blade that is both powerful and controlled. It is made of high-quality materials and is constructed with precision. The blade is also very durable and will last for many years.
The blade is designed to provide the player with a lot of power. The thick core of the blade generates a lot of spin and power, which allows the player to hit the ball with great force. The blade also has a large sweet spot, which makes it easy to hit the ball cleanly.
The blade is also very controlled. The soft outer layer of the blade provides the player with a lot of control over the ball. This makes it easy to place the ball where you want it and to control the amount of spin that you put on the ball.
Overall, this blade is a great choice for any player who is looking for a blade that is both powerful and controlled. It is made of high-quality materials and is constructed with precision. The blade is also very durable and will last for many years.

Very good control + high speed, even for a beginner like me. An advanced player has recommended it to me.

A hollow sound is a bit distracting, but it is very controlled at slow game and quite fast when you hit hard. It has more gears than I expected, so a great blade for an all-round game. Not as fun to play with as an Acoustic, but Ludeack may well reduce your errors in a match, even though the top speed is a bit higher. The manufacturing quality is very high, and the photos don’t do it justice.

Take time to know this blade and it will improve your performance to a better level of consistency and quality strokes.

I was looking for a blade with better control and, after reading the reviews, decided to go for this one. Nittaku Ludeack exceeded my expectations. It has the best control with an exceptional feeling. Paired it with Tibhar ELP (FH) and Tibhar Speedy Soft XD D.Tecs (BH).

Nittaku blades are top quality products, and Ludeack is, without any doubt, a top-class blade. Classic seven plies, Limba Ayous, without composite materials. If you like wood feeling, this is the right blade. I consider speed as an OFF- / ALL+; medium dwell time. Also suitable for short pips on backhand.

My absolute favorite blade from Nittaku, even better than Acoustic. It can be really quick with the right rubbers. This quality is fantastic. It is very, very spinny with the new Hybrids.

I switched from Stiga Nostalgic allround blade to this one for a little bit more speed. I think I got it. It is a medium-speed blade, not fast, with very good control. My straight handle is very comfortable for my medium-large hands. The weight of mine is 78g only!! It feels extremely light. It is worth buying. A beautiful, high-end product.

Switched to Ludeack from Xiom Michelangelo and I’m excited.

Потрясающий контроль. Удобная ручка. Это семислойка, и ракетка в сборе с накладками Andro в максимальной толщине показалась тяжеловатой. Из-за толщины пришлось надфилем адаптировать основание, чтобы не натирало. В целом очень доволен, как всегда, качеством Nittaku и сервисом TT11. Благодарю за доставку в период пандемии (две недели, что очень хорошо, почта обещает 25 дней).

One of the best Nittaku frames on the market. Great control, light, and easy to handle. Exceptional spin.
#14 — September 2020
One of the best blades produced by Nittaku. Seven layers of wood, but with excellent control. Precise in the blocks and superlative in the topspin. One of the blades that give the ball an above-average rotation.
#15 — September 2020
Excellent blade, one of the best of Nittaku. Good control, good block, excellent exchange, excellent topspin. Exceptional rotation. Very well built, it is a pleasure to play with. I have been using it for many years now and I still haven’t been able to find a better replacement than him.

A bit surprised with this blade as I ordered it to compare with a Stiga Clipper. Good looking blade with probably the sharpest edges on the handle wing ever… sandpaper needed. Straight handle is ok, slightly thin.
It has a completely different feel, much more hollow (nearly a bit like cardboard… sorry), quite a bit of vibration. I feel it is not as stiff as Clipper but maybe harder… just strange, maybe more than 5 plies which I don’t have much experience with and never really liked.
However, after getting over this initial surprise, you definitely feel the ball very strongly and it has probably more spring than a Clipper, less linear in my view. Overall slower by at least 15% to my Clipper (my Clipper is a Classic with about 93gr). Ludeack is much lighter, probably around 85gr. Excellent service from tabletennis11.com.
#17 — January 2020
Ductile and simple-to-use attack frame. Normal weight. It always offers a loaded spin, excellent in the blocks and in the control phases.
#18 — January 2020
Simply amazing. Great feeling and control, great for short pips on the backhand.
#19 — November 2019
A little small, but high-quality workmanship for hands and face is enough.
#20 — September 2019
Great control with speed, great touch, nice blocking, nice spin. A little stiff, better with soft rubbers in my view. Great quality, beautiful blade.
#21 — August 2019
Nittaku Ludeack is a classic, 7-ply, all-wood blade. Paired with suitable rubbers, it becomes an allrounder’s dream come true. The service offered by Tabletennis11 is first class.
#22 — August 2019
Great blade. Good speed, good control, and fantastic spin. Seven layers of wood only assembled in a workmanlike manner. For me, it remains one of the best frames in circulation.
#23 — March 2019
This blade for me excels with medium-hard to medium rubbers on the FH and soft on the BH. Total control yet has enough gears to win the point as well.
#24 — March 2019
I have been using this blade with Nattiku fast arc S-1 rubber, Donic Bluefire rubbers and DHL Gold Arc 8 for a while. It has the right combination of touch feel and power. If you prefer controlled looping, rather than crazy fast shots, this is one of the best 7-ply wood blades for you. I just love it, and so does my table tennis playmate.
#25 — November 2018
It’s my first real blade, coupled with Hurricane Pro 3 and Turbo Orange (Nittaku). I can’t really compare it to others, but I’ve been able to progress to a lower intermediate level quite quickly with it due to its great control. Now, I feel it’s a little slow and will probably use some faster rubbers like G-1 Fastarc and Rasanter R42. I’d definitely recommend it to a serious beginner who could use it throughout their career.

The Andro Ligna OFF’s construction is a 7-ply blade featuring an outer layer of limba and a core of kiri. The limba provides a hard surface to the blade, which gives it good power. The kiri core gives it a soft feel, which makes it easier to control. The Andro Ligna OFF is a good choice for players who want a blade with good power and control.
The Stiga Clipper Wood is a 5-ply blade with an outer layer of limba and a core of spruce. The limba gives the blade good power, while the spruce core gives it a soft feel. The Stiga Clipper Wood is a good choice for players who want a blade with good power and control.
The Butterfly Timo Boll ALC is a 5-ply blade with an outer layer of limba and a core of ayous. The limba gives the blade good power, while the ayous core gives it a soft feel. The Butterfly Timo Boll ALC is a good choice for players who want a blade with good power and control.
The Donic Waldner Senso V1 is a 7-ply blade with an outer layer of limba and a core of spruce. The limba gives the blade good power, while the spruce core gives it a soft feel. The Donic Waldner Senso V1 is a good choice for players who want a blade with good power and control.
The Xiom Vega Pro is a 5-ply blade with an outer layer of limba and a core of ayous. The limba gives the blade good power, while the ayous core gives it a soft feel. The Xiom Vega Pro is a good choice for players who want a blade with good power and control.

This is a mid ALL+ to OFF- blade with excellent control and quality. It has a similar feel to the Petr Korbel and features a 7-ply construction of Limba and Ayous. The speed is comparable to the Stiga Offensive Classic. I have a straight grip version.
#28 — August 2018
I’ve bought a Nittaku Ludeack blade a couple of weeks ago and I’m loving it.
Everyone that I played with complimented it and said it was really good. I’m not too good at describing how it plays. It is labeled offensive, but it’s not the fastest blade out there. I think it’s more due to the rubber you stick to it that will dictate how it plays.
All in all, I’m happy with my purchase and happy with TableTennis11 service. I’ve ordered twice from them and both times were 100% satisfactory.

Simply amazing. Great feeling and control, great for short pips on BH.

My favorite 7-ply wood blade. It’s a Limba/Ayous/Ayous/Ayous composition blade with incredible control and feel. Considering its speed (solid Off- with the new ball) this blade has the best control I’ve ever encountered, and I own close to 50 blades. On average, they are around 85g and 6.5mm in thickness (I own 5 of them varying from 84–87g and 6.4–6.6mm). It offers (to me) a perfect balance between enough elasticity and flex for good looping and counter-looping and enough stiffness and backbone for good blocks, hits, and directional control. Weight distribution is fairly balanced. The flared handle feels great in the hand and is the perfect size for my medium/large hands. It does everything I ask it to do with great feeling and control and plenty of speed for my needs when paired with an offensive rubber. Incredible blade with typical Nittaku top-of-the-line construction and finish.

My favorite 7 Ply wood blade, the Limba/Ayous/Ayous/Ayous composition blade, boasts incredible control and feel. Despite its solid Off- speed with the new ball, this blade offers the best control I’ve encountered. I own close to 50 blades, and this one excels in control.
On average, these blades weigh around 85g and have a thickness of 6.5mm. My collection includes five blades ranging from 84-87g and 6.4-6.6mm. In my opinion, this blade strikes a perfect balance between elasticity and flex for effective looping and counter-looping, as well as stiffness and backbone for strong blocks, hits, and directional control. Its weight distribution is relatively balanced.
The flared handle is comfortable to握 and fits my medium/large hands perfectly. It meets all my expectations, providing excellent feel and control with sufficient speed for my needs when paired with an offensive rubber. Top-notch Nittaku construction and finish make this an exceptional blade.

The Ludeack produces a crisp and direct contact on forehand (FH) and backhand (BH) drives, which affords an excellent feeling of the ball. The blade is only moderately fast, I would say low-to-mid OFF-, but it really delivers in the control segment. FH and BH drives were near-impossible to miss with this blade.
While the Ludeack is best suited close to the table and mid-distance, it still delivers from distances although greater physical effort is required. Even though the contact point is crisp, there is plenty of dwell time for generous spin generation. Accordingly, the blade produces a surprisingly high arc on FH loops against heavy backspin with plenty of clearance over the net, making it a…

More power than Stiga CL CR.

Отличная доска. Похожа на clipper, только качественней изготовлена.
#35 — December 2015
The quality of the wood is incredible and the workmanship is at least as good as Butterfly. This is a quality offensive blade with enough speed and great control. What a beauty! ()
#36 — November 2015
Very nice blade, good control, and enough power.
#37 — April 2015
excellent
#38 — March 2015
Very nice blade. Not as powerful as ludeack power but very control blade. The FL handle is very comfortable. The shipping was fast as always! Thanks a lot once tabletennis 11.

A good 7-layer blade!
#40 — October 2014
Excellent blade.
#41 — January 2013
The blade is built impeccably, resulting in an incisive spin and control like a defense blade. Despite its slightly slower speed, it is fast enough for most players.
When paired with fast rubbers, the blade becomes more offensive, making it suitable for players who want both control and speed in their play. For players who prefer more control and defense, the blade can be paired with slower rubbers.
#42 — January 2012
One of the best blades I’ve ever had. The blade produces vibrations when paired with soft to medium rubbers. It’s easy to handle and shines away from the table, making it a great choice for players who like to keep their opponents at a distance.
