Blade Review

This highly unusual blade is stiff yet extremely slow. It absorbs the pace of incoming balls, making passive shots unlikely to travel far. Attacking shots require effort, and even average shots demand more force than a standard defensive blade.

The blade has a large head and a tiny handle, and its overall quality is very good. While it may not be suitable for everyone, those with good fitness and a desire to frequently drop shots just over the net might appreciate it.

Initial attempts with standard Mark V forehand rubber resulted in numerous shots going into the net. Switching to Donic Baracuda yielded similar results. However, when combined with 0x Grass D.Tecs, it exhibited good control and spin reversal due to its decent stiffness.
