Victas SWAT

Blade description:

This 7-ply all-wood blade is designed with a focus on feedback, dwell time, and maneuverability. It is notably lighter than many standard 7-ply alternatives, making it easy to handle during fast exchanges. Players often pair it with a variety of rubbers, including inverted options for spin-heavy loops and short pips for direct, crisp hitting.

Playing Characteristics

  • Feel and Feedback: The blade provides distinct ball-impact feedback, allowing for high sensitivity during touch play. Some users experience a pronounced vibration, which contributes to a “mushy” or flexible sensation for those who prefer a stiffer, more rigid feel.
  • Speed and Control: It offers a balanced performance that supports a versatile game, ranging from passive short play and blocking to finishing attacks. The extended dwell time enhances forgiveness, assisting in keeping topspin shots on the table.
  • Construction: As an all-wood 7-ply construction, it avoids the stiffness often associated with composite blades. Its weight distribution is generally perceived as light, contributing to its ease of use for players seeking a setup that is not top-heavy or cumbersome.

I changed from a 729 Blue Advance ALC (too heavy, too thick) to this blade with two Fastarc G-1 2mm rubbers.

You can do everything with this Asian bestseller blade. I understand why: very good dwell time (incredible, all my topspin shots land on the table with all the forgiveness in the world!), can finish when needed, and blocking is easy.

I eventually found my perfect blade.

Excellent speed and control. Much better than the carbon blades I tried.
