The blade’s aesthetics may not impress many, but its performance is surprisingly exceptional. Compared to pre-made blades from Stiga, this blade significantly outperforms them. For a genuine table tennis experience, consider investing in high-quality equipment rather than settling for inferior options like this subpar blade.

Actuellement utilisé avec Donic F3 bigslam en tant que débutant, le bois est très léger et très agréable. J’ai également le bois Yinhe T11+.

À comparer, le 4L Balsa est plus souple, moins rigide. Avec les plaques Donic 2 mm sur coup droit et 1,8 mm sur revers, j’ai des difficultés pour le petit jeu près de la table. Il y a un vrai effet trampoline lié aux plaques, surtout les coupes en coup droit. J’ai tenté, au regard du prix, le Yinhe avec Galaxy Mercury 2 et je m’en sors un peu mieux.

Great paddle for beginner children or females. It is very light, not fast at all, but it has great control. It is easy to use. However, it would be hard to win points with speed unless your rubbers are really fast. It is great for perfecting technique. This paddle with some cheap all-around rubbers would be a good setup for a beginner. As always, tabletennis11.com has the best price.
