Yasaka Extra Offensive 7 Power

La pala es bastante rápida, pero sin perder control, muy completa y equilibrada. Su peso y dimensiones también son adecuados. Es una compra muy segura, no te va a decepcionar; la calificaría como 9/10 tanto en velocidad como en control, sin duda una gran adquisición por su precio.

Very fast, very comfortable for my hand. Bit too fast for my skill level.

Simplemente buenísimo.

Thickness: 5.8mm Weight: 88g Head size: Standard Grip: FL grip, thin but not too Chinese Beautiful dark wood Medium hardness Medium flex Medium fast Nice feel, control, low vibration, large sweet spot, consistency Wenge or walnut wood Inner fleece cabono Very good in the game I think it is one scale down in the speed rating. It is very nice. Factory sealed. Good quality. With Joola Rossi emotion and DHS 301, Yeo 7 Power is one of the best performances for the price. I have tried many.

This blade is more fun, forgiving, and spinnier to play with than the Butterfly Ovtcharov ALC and did not seem much slower. I would say it’s a screaming good deal for a high-performance and fun blade. I am very tempted to buy this blade after trying it, but I already have too many blades.

Very good blade, but just feels thinner for me. I need a more confident one.

This is a very underrated blade. It has more flex than the Goiabao 5. It is similar to the YEO with a little more flex, but the YEO7 has much more speed and kick. The control between the three varies slightly, but the YEO has a closer feeling in control.

You can feel the carbon kick in on harder shots. Chinese rubbers on the forehand work well with this blade. The carbon reinforces power on all attacking drives.

The short game works wonders if you understand spin. The TPB works smoothly with the current setup. Looping exchanges from medium to far are easy. Close-up rallies require you to close the bat angle.

I use Rakza 7 soft for the RPB, and the results are deadly. This setup is often complemented, as it is not a strong suit for most penholders locally.

I have played with this blade for going on two years as my favorite setup. Other penholders note to me that this blade is too stiff and hard, but my rating and reputation at the club have grown using this racket.

If you like a harder outer ply, then you should try this blade.

This is my first professional blade. After doing a lot of research online about different blades, keeping in mind my budget, I went with the Yasaka blade given its high quality at a fair price. I paired it up with Fast-arc G-1 on the forehand and Rakza 7 on the backhand. I am very happy with the performance of the blade. It gave great speed to my forehand topspins while keeping high control on counter shots. The push game needs a little adjustment since the blade is fast but manageable. The blade has a woody feeling due to its hard outer surface and has a solid sound when hitting the ball. The carbon layer really helps with vibration when hitting at high speed. All in all, it is a great blade to practice and develop your game. Overall, it is a really great carbon blade at $38 on a discount on tabletennis11.com.

The carbon layer effectively reduces vibration during high-speed hits. Overall, it’s a great blade for practice and developing your game. At $38 on a discount from tabletennis11.com, it’s an excellent value for a carbon blade.

Very good blade, fast, good control, good to play with far away from the table.

I am an intermediate/advanced amateur player and I play close to the table to a medium distance away from it, with a counter-attacking game consisting of short blocks and counter/topspin on topspin, with fast low loops from close to the table. This blade is excellent for that kind of playing style. I use it with a Donic Bluefire M2 as my forehand and a Stiga Mantra M as my backhand. I used to have the Donic Baum Carrera Senso as my blade before this, and have played with the Waldner Senso Carbon, and this is definitely very different from a Senso Carbon blade while retaining the speed of the technology. The inner-force kind of construction makes sure that you still have a lot of feeling for the ball while providing enough speed to hit fast loops and counters. The dwell time is excellent. Despite the stiff outer layers, you can easily place the ball anywhere you want and be in control of the game. And I can’t imagine anything better than this for $36 (that’s what I bought this for)! The Baum Carrera was like a stiff fast wall, while this is more flexible and more forgiving. I would recommend a faster blade for players who play away from the table though, and who would want to hit long arching spinny loops. At least, a different combination of rubbers.

Good blade, definitely playable for a controlled offensive game, but it didn’t have a wow factor. Everything was ok for looping and blocking, but if you move away from the table or want something quite fast, this blade isn’t for you. It misses the extra gear.

The blade was solid, no problems, feel was consistent—and firm. I probably screwed things up by having fast rubbers on this fast blade; the combo was a bit too fast for me overall. I think softer rubbers would be a better match. Nice blade though.

I have been using this blade for 3 months now. So far, I think the blade is really a good blade. It has a lot of speed and good control in mid range from the table. The control of blade far from the table is something I don’t find good. It maybe because of my own skills or change of blade, but I am quite sure that it’s hard to control this blade. The response of the blade on most part is really consistent. I would rate it 7.5/10 because I think the control is a little less away from table, which really restricted my game. Although, for the price, this blade is really good.

My USATT rating hovers around 1700. I used the penhold version (with RPB). Penholders favor this blade’s growing popularity. It features Wenge - spruce - thin carbon - kiri - thin carbon - spruce - wenge composition for an impressive value of $45 from tabletennis11. While hard and fast, reviewers note that the thinness provides flex. The sweet spot rivals that of the Butteryfly ZJK super ZLC, giving it a precise and crisp feel, especially when looping.

However, I found the blade too fast for my skill level and switched to the Yasaka Silver All Wood. Despite its power and opponents’ difficulty blocking its shots, the harder strokes often went out of the table due to excessive speed. Additionally, blocking proved challenging, as the blade’s speed and unforgiving nature led to flinching. The greatest strengths of this blade, its speed and power, ultimately became its weaknesses. If you can control it (probably above USATT 2000), its speed, large sweet spot, precise feeling, and value are worth the tradeoff in control. Otherwise, a slower blade may be more suitable.

Great racket, good fast. I have rubbers DHS Gold Arc 8 max forehand and also backhand, and it’s a perfect combination for my play. Control racket for all my play is wonderful. I play more and more time, my play is always improving, and I love this racket. I am very happy, this racket upfilled my dreams. Thank you very much.

Very good blade, needs medium-hard rubbers.

Review text:

YEO 7 Power combo with Yasaka Rakza 1.8 black + Donic Barracuda 1.8 Black. I know - illegal, but why not try to compare? Both rubbers play and feel quite similar with this blade. Great control. I doubt the thin carbo layer has any effect on your play. It can be hardly even seen.

Barracuda is slightly softer, slightly slower, and slightly deader (you have to add a bit more of your power, very slightly). I personally prefer Rakza 7, not that much faster but the added livliness gives me a better feeling of the ball and thus better control.

How about spin? Barracuda is not that much spinnier than Rakza 7. The spin potential is very similar with this blade.

My blade is 5.7 mm thick, weighs 89 g, and has 5 + 2 layers. It has a thin carbon layer and a factory seal. The surface is thin and hard.

Compared to the DHS PG7, the Yeo7 has a larger head size and a slightly larger handle. The PG7 is head-heavy, while the Yeo7 is weight-balanced. The Yeo7 is faster than the PG7, but not the fastest blade available. It is also stiffer than the PG7. The Yeo7 is twice the price of the PG7.

My blade came with a plastic seal but no box. I tested it with T05 forehand and T64 backhand rubbers. This blade is easy to use. It has good feedback, possibly due to its weight balance and thin surface layer. It is good for fast attacks. Backhand flicks are easy with this blade, which is not the case with the PG7 due to its head-heaviness. The PG7 is better for looping with high spin.

Pairing this blade with the right rubber is essential to unlock its full potential. Given its quality and performance, it is worth the price.

Very good blade. I use it, and my attacking became more accurate and strong.

This blade looks awesome, but that’s just me.

The quality of the blade, the power contained within, the balance maintained throughout, they’re all nice; because of that, I use this as my main blade, and my game has improved a lot using it.

Woah! At first, I thought that ordering from here isn’t safe, but then I said let’s do it and ordered 2 rubbers, edge tape, and this blade. The blade is very fast and has awesome control. The throw angle is amazing, and my products were shipped to Pakistan in 5 business days because I paid an extra 16 dollars for DHL shipping. Tabletennis11.com is the best, and I’m a proud customer from Pakistan! Keep it up!!

My current blade is excellent for blocking and has a dwell time of 5-6/10 with medium hard sponge rubbers. With Rakza 7 FH and 7 Soft BH, it’s great for close to net play. Using these rubbers, I defeated a higher-ranked player (ranked 1950) easily in three sets to two, even though I am ranked around 1550 and he was playing with Tenergy 05.

This blade requires excellent skills to use effectively, but it plays well with all rubbers. Its speed depends on effort; when you smash flat, it’s like lightning speed. I have two of these blades, one anatomical and the other flared. The flared blade is my tournament blade.

This is my primary blade. I put some grip on the handle because it is soft and narrow, which allows me to feel the great touch of the ball. This is a $200 blade, but Yasaka sells it for $40 on Table Tennis 11. I am biased towards Yasaka blades because they are of high quality with reasonable prices.

This blade can be used by players of all levels and has a lot of gears. It’s a great blade for players moving up the rankings and developing their game slowly. Yasaka rubbers work exceptionally well with Yasaka blades. After playing with cheaper blades like DHS PG7 all-wood blades, this is the carbon blade to get if you want one. My flared blade weighs 86 grams, and the anatomical weighs 88 grams.

Fits my hand well (medium). Great sound when hit hard. Fast blade.

Very good for this price. Hard stiff blade, quite fast, but it has really good control. (I think versatile is a fitting word for this blade.) It is really good for shots and not too heavy. Its feeling is really hard. I highly recommend it for attack players.

Excelente, recomendo.

Mine is 85.2g anatomic. Thickness measured to be 5.5mm. Factory sealed with wings somewhat sanded. Overall quality is pretty good and it’s made in Sweden. I don’t like the big emblem on both sides of the grip as I could feel it when I play. The anatomic grip shape is nice & oval, except a little bit small for me so I wrapped it with grip tape and it’s now very ideal. There is a hard & dark walnut veneer on the outside, followed by a medium hardness veneer, then a thin layer of carbon above the core. YEO7 is similar to Innerforce T5000 in design but with a harder surface and thinner thickness (5.5 vs 5.7mm).

Update: Due to the thinness, the blade is somewhat flexible and dwelly. You will get more dwell if you’ve chosen a softer rubber which I recommend medium soft rubbers. I put on a Razka 7(med hard) on the BH and an old layer of Baraccuda(medium) on FH. It’s a nice combo, although heavy but with the grip tape the setup is very balanced. Both rubber feel very grippy and produce enormous amounts of spin and very easy to loop. When looping side spin, it feels like I can grab the ball and throw it to wherever I aim, it produces a nice arc. The YEO7 feels like a wooden blade (due to it’s “innerforce” design), solid impact feel, but dwelly due to the flexible thin structure. You get a precise feel of the ball and would know which part of the blade touched the ball. As you play more and more, you will be trained to hit the sweetspot more accurately due to more feel. YEO7 has great short game push & touch and flick shots due to more feel. it’s definitely growing on me. It’s on the slow end of OFF+ and the control is excellent. This setup is my best setup for competition so far. For the price I paid-$33 on sale, it’s a super deal! Here is my rating:

speed=9.1; control=9.5; feel=solid, dwelly & precise; stiffness=6; hardness=7; Sweetspot=big; Spin=9.3; Short Game & Mid Game=Excnt; Flicks=Easy; Push=very good; Balance=very good; Consistency=9.5; Overall=9.5.

great

I received this blade in good condition.

Bought this on a special price for $33! Mine is 85.2g anatomic. Thickness measured to be 5.5mm. Factory sealed with wings somewhat sanded. Overall quality is pretty good. I don’t like the big emblem on both sides of the grip as I could feel it when I play. The anatomic grip shape is nice, similar to late Butterfly’s except the bottom is not as wide, which I like; however, I wish the grip were wider as I am accustomed to the wide grip of my main blade—Xiom Strato. There is a hard and dark walnut veneer on the outside, followed by a medium hardness veneer, then a thin layer of carbon above the core. YEO7 is similar to Innerforce T5000 but with a harder surface.

Due to the thinness, the blade is somewhat flexible and dwelly. You will get more dwell if you’ve chosen a softer rubber, which I recommend due to the hard walnut layer. The playing characteristics are very different than my main blade Xiom Strato due to the very different thickness; YEO7 is very thin and flexible with a very hard surface vs. Strato and PC, very thick and rigid frames with a soft hinoki surface; completely different design philosophy. Guess what, they all produce spinny shots but with a very different feel. The YEO7 feels like a stiff wooden blade (due to its “innerforce” design and hard surface), harder impact feel, but dwelly due to the flexible thin structure. You get a rich feel of the ball and would know which part of the blade touched the ball. It takes some getting used to as my main blade Strato has a very stiff structure but milder impact and larger sweet spot. I rate the speed 9.2 vs. Strato 9.5. YEO7 has a trampoline effect vs. the Strato’s linear feel. Control-wise, Strato has a bigger sweet spot and is more forgiving, but you will be trained to hit the sweet spot more accurately due to more feel. YEO7 is better in the short game, push and touch, and flick shots due to more feel and being slower, but Strato is the king in looping, driving, and smash. Here is my rating: speed = 9.2; control = 8.5; feel = hard and dwelly; stiffness = 6; hardness = 9; overall = 9.3

Good

It’s quite satisfactory with respect to the price as well as quality.

One of the best carbon blades.

My YEO 7 power weighs 86 grams, and I played it with Bluefire M2 on both sides.

The blade is thinner than the all-wood YEO, with a thickness of 5.7-5.8 mm, the same as my Viscaria. The walnut outer ply is much darker than the walnut of the YEO, as it is selected differently and is dark like the walnut on Barwell.

This blade is excellent, featuring an innerforce construction, where the carbon layers are under two plies. The feel is impressive, with off+ speed, a large sweet spot, and good spin (despite the carbon, the blade does have some flex). Short game play is also easy with this blade. The throw is medium-low, like my Viscaria.

This is a premium quality blade at a fair price. If it were manufactured by Butterfly, it would likely cost $229.

Powerful blade with good speed.

Прекрасное основание, до него был Rutis, Ясака лучше, контрольная плетка, внешний слой венге прекрасно, супер, доволен на все 100%.

Muy buena madera.

This is an excellent blade for someone who is looking for control in a high-speed blade. The price-to-benefit ratio is really good.

Like YEO.

I keep this to try with the new poly ball.

The level of manufacture needs to improve.

Perfect Blade

Very fast, stiffer, and more powerful than YEO! It still has good control and feel. I recommend pairing it with soft to medium-hard rubbers.

I have Rakza 7 on both sides. The spin and speed are fantastic. It blocks well, generates heavy topspins and sidespins, and smashes effectively. It’s an ideal combination for aggressive play.

very good
