Tibhar Carbon Shot

2019:
This blade is extremely fast. Even slight defensive pushes and chops go over the edge unless you get used to it and have developed control. I paired this blade with Acuda S1, which is a very fast rubber. That proved to be a mistake, as shots became uncontrollable. However, accurate shots are unbeatable. I hope trying Mark V and Galaxy Mercury ii will make a difference, and I will update this review after comparing the changed setup.

UPDATE:
In 2019-20, I used Mark V with this blade, which improved the control. Meanwhile, I also used the Sanwei M8 blade with Yinhe Mercury II, which helped me learn the correct technique for some shots.

After a gap from TT, I again put back my original setup (Carbon Shot + Acura S1 + Aurus Sound) in 2022. I found that I can adjust my shots better now. Since the bat is still fast, I need to put in less than 75% power for my loops to land as desired.

CONCLUSION:
This blade is not for beginners. After spending a lot of time playing with colleagues or some time under a coach (coaching is the surest and fastest way to improve), you can try this blade and see how it fits your playing style.

Awesome experience. It makes you feel like a pro and takes your game to a different level altogether. Once you get used to it…you will ROCK. !!!Nice uphold and decent look. Amazing stuff!!! :)

Not good for looping because dwell time is very less. It is damn fast.

I like it for the price.
