I purchased this racket stand believing it to be one of Stiga’s “best,” a “top quality” product. However, upon unboxing, it was immediately apparent that it fell short of this claim. The handle was uncomfortable to hold, and the untreated edges of the wood near the neck of the stand were surprisingly sharp. Furthermore, the metal logo on the handle was unevenly installed.
Essentially, the racket stand requires sanding to make the handle comfortable. It was unusable for my first training session because it was impossible to grip properly. I fail to understand what justifies the high price of this product.
I will update this review once I’ve had more time to train with the racket stand. As of today, I am very disappointed with the quality from Stiga.
After playing with this racket for two weeks, I can offer an initial assessment. It’s very enjoyable to use, providing a good feel. The speed is sufficient for my level of play, and the control is adequate. Notably, when executing technically correct strokes, the racket produces a distinctive sound.
I currently use Xiom Omega VII Pro (max) on the forehand and Xiom Jekyll & Hyde C55.0 (max) on the backhand. In my opinion, these rubbers are well-suited to my playing style.
In conclusion, I’ve found a very good playing tool that brings me genuine joy and pleasure.
Honestly, I don’t really know how I feel about this blade. This was my first ever carbon blade paired with T05 2.1 mm on FH and T64 1.9mm on BH. In the beginning, it felt like a really good blade. Eventually, I started noticing I had to concentrate on my ball placement in the short game a lot more, and I really had to dose the power in my stroke when counter-spinning away from the table, otherwise it would just shoot out. It has decent control, but not a lot more than, say for example, a Butterfly Timo Boll ALC (played with my friend’s TB ALC for a couple of times). After this, I switched to the Cybershape wood, which obviously has even more control, but loses out on a lot of speed.
If you are thinking about getting this blade, I would suggest that you need sufficient technique for using this since, even for an innerforce style blade, it is quite fast. And if you do, pair it with rubbers which are not too fast. This is, of course, if you are not already a top-class player; then you can do whatever you want with this.
This is an excellent blade for me. The only thing is the handle is a little bit big for me. I use sandpaper to sand it a little bit flat, like a Japanese style handle for myself.
