Horrible blade. It focuses on speed, and it excels in that, but it has literally NO feeling, and the strokes spread like a machine gun.
I bought this during the Swedish Championship in Halmstad, Sweden because it was cheap ($12) the last time Waldner won in 2010, his 9th time.
This was my first Carbon blade. It weighs 95 grams, and with a Bluefire M1 & a S2 on the BH, I couldn’t cope with the overall weight. I lightened it with a TC Boost 2.0 on the BH and it became usable. Later, I changed the BH rubber to a Donic Coppa Speed, which was better.
I ended up getting a Donic Octcharov Soft Carbon V1, which was a huge disappointment. I then reverted back to this blade. Once I got used to it, I quite liked it. However, it seemed a little one-dimensional, feeling happiest at full belt on the FH. The rest of my game seemed to suffer, and eventually, I sold it.
You can get this blade as a clearance blade for around £20 from the likes of Thortons. At that price, you couldn’t complain about it.
Indeed, it is a very fast blade, even with Chinese RITC 729-5 and Speedy P.O. pimples on the backhand. It vibrates slightly to give more feeling. Looping needs some practice because the throw is a little bit low. Overall, it is a good blade.
