Tibhar Zodiac Libra ZAC

This blade is magical. It offers exceptional control. I often execute shots that I anticipate will be out of bounds, but surprisingly, they land within the playing area. When I switch back to my previous blade (Andro CO OFF), I feel vulnerable and disconnected from the game.

DISCLAIMER - For context, I have been training with a professional coach for 14 months and have primarily used the Andro CO OFF and Nittaku Mima Ito Carbon blades. My primary objective was to enhance control, which I have achieved with this blade. While the Nittaku Mima Ito Carbon provided a satisfactory level of control, it fell short of this blade and was also noticeably slower in speed. In comparison to the Andro CO OFF, I perceive minimal to no reduction in speed but a significant improvement in control. My coach has also expressed their positive impression of the blade.

This blade is too heavy at the tip and does not feel like a carbon frame. In my opinion, it is too elastic and not very powerful, but the control is perfect.

This blade is the perfect combination of feel and spin, striking a great balance between the two. The unique blend of materials and construction techniques employed in its design results in a blade that provides exceptional control and stability, allowing players to execute shots with precision and confidence.

The blade’s composition is specifically engineered to enhance spin generation. The combination of a soft outer layer and a stiff inner core creates a trampoline effect, maximizing energy transfer and allowing for explosive and dynamic shots. This makes it an ideal choice for players who rely on spin and control to outmaneuver their opponents.

However, despite its focus on spin, the blade does not sacrifice feel or control. The soft outer layer provides excellent feedback, allowing players to accurately gauge the ball’s trajectory and adjust their shots accordingly. The stiff inner core provides a solid foundation, ensuring stability and preventing excessive vibrations that can interfere with precision.

Overall, this blade is well-suited for players of all levels who value both spin and control. Its unique combination of materials and construction techniques makes it an exceptional choice for those seeking a blade that enhances their spin-oriented playing style.

The best table tennis blade depends on the player’s individual style and preferences. However, some general factors to consider when choosing a blade include:

- Speed: The speed of a blade refers to how quickly the ball bounces off the blade. A faster blade will produce a faster ball, while a slower blade will produce a slower ball.

- Spin: The spin of a blade refers to how much the ball curves when it bounces off the blade. A blade with more spin will produce a ball that curves more, while a blade with less spin will produce a ball that curves less.

- Control: The control of a blade refers to how easily the player can control the ball when it bounces off the blade. A blade with more control will make it easier for the player to keep the ball on the table, while a blade with less control will make it more difficult for the player to keep the ball on the table.

- Weight: The weight of a blade refers to how much the blade weighs. A heavier blade will be more difficult to swing, while a lighter blade will be easier to swing.

- Feel: The feel of a blade refers to how the blade feels in the player’s hand. Some players prefer a blade that feels soft, while other players prefer a blade that feels hard.

- Price: The price of a blade can vary depending on the brand, the materials used, and the quality of the blade.

When choosing a blade, it is important to consider the player’s individual style and preferences. A player who prefers to play an aggressive, attacking style may prefer a fast, spinny blade with less control. A player who prefers to play a more defensive style may prefer a slower, more controlled blade with less spin.

Ultimately, the best way to choose a table tennis blade is to try out different blades and see what feels best for the player.

Very good Wood. The Wood is not the fastest.

Best rubbers Tibhar Hybrid MK. But rubbers have to be max!

The slowest of the competition: So Ten, Tmxi pro, Cedric, Calderano Hal, Freeze…

The amazing blade is the slowest with the best feeling, higher than the competition.
