Very good blade for beginners, highly recommended for training. It provides a good feeling and is versatile, allowing players to learn every technique. I use the AN handle, which is quite wide (oval) on this blade and incredibly pleasant for large hands like mine.

The blade is lightweight (mine is 81g) and easy to pair with rubbers. I use it to test rubbers because of the vivid feedback and neutral touch it provides. Tibhar recommends pairing it with Nimbus rubbers, but I don’t. Nimbus rubbers have a rather old design and aren’t efficient enough with plastic balls. Based on my findings, it pairs well with Xiom Vega (Intro, Euro) rubbers and Tibhar Evolution (FX, EL) and Quantum X series. I haven’t tried harder rubbers yet but will on occasion.

The build quality is decent, as expected in that price range. You get what you pay for. However, it’s not typical of Tibhar quality. I own 4 other Tibhar blades, and all have a better finish.

Despite its slightly lower build quality, the fact that this blade has been sold for over 15 years after its release speaks volumes about its popularity and effectiveness.

Very good for learning table tennis. However, it becomes too slow for advanced players. The handle is too thin for my preference. Overall, a very good blade with good ball control.

I’ve been using this blade since 2006. It is an all-around blade, suitable for beginners to intermediate players. It provides great feeling and control. It excels at topspin and blocking shots. However, it lacks power for smashing and looping.

To compensate for the lack of power, a medium-hard rubber set like Aurus (for forehand) can be used. For backhand, Aurus Soft pairs very well with this blade.

Overall, this is a very good training blade at a reasonable price.

My first blade, the Tibhar Nimbus Allaround, is a great choice for beginners. It’s not particularly fast, but it has enough speed to generate some nice aggressive hits when needed. And its control is excellent.

As a solid, unremarkable but very playable blade, it appeals to players looking for their first “real” racket. It’s not too fast, so you can maintain control. But it’s not too slow either, so you can still generate some power.

I only regret that I didn’t buy the Nimbus Offensive instead. But at the time, I loved this blade, and I still recommend it for developing players.

Good foundation for attacking/combined game, suitable for beginners, amateurs, and even candidates for master of sports level. Perfectly complements Tibhar Nimbus Soft rubbers. No difficulties when removing water glue and rubbers.

Wonderful blade. If you glue Tibhar Nimbus Sound rubber on it and hit hard and flat, you get such a unique loud click or pop. At the same time, the opponent is “pleasantly surprised”. But this is more because of the rubber. In general, a cool “popper” came out.

Good price, but it is too light for me (only 74 grams).

In a word, good value for money.

He was so excited the first time he used them, and we appreciate the company because they care about their clients. Thank you so much!

Excellent for me! Very comfortable light-weight blade for control/all-around, medium-fast speed. I also use a Butterfly Carbon blade.

Don’t get the feeling of performance for the ALLROUND.

Muy buena madera para jugadores all around.

As advertised, this all-around+ blade is nicely paired with Nimbus rubbers.
Setup: Forehand: Tibhar Nimbus Soft / 1.8mm black / 37.5º. Backhand: Tibhar Nimbus Sound / 1.8mm red / 32.5º. This is the second lightest bat I own at a total of 152g for this combination. While it lacks power for my current game in competitions, it provides a good direct feel and a wonderful intro-to-intermediate all-around blade to help improve technique/strokes while giving a wonderful sound for warm-up and/or leisurely play.

I am very happy with my blade.

I use the Nimbus All 84g ST which has a very good feeling, good control, and mid-fast speed. I have used some blades (Adidas C100, C300, Butterfly Primorac Carbon, Jang-Jike, Nexy Spartacus, Tibhar Samsonov Premium Contact…). It is the best blade of mine.
