Yinhe T-11s

If you like a stiff and light blade, it’s the right choice. To produce good spin, it requires a very good technique, otherwise you keep hitting drives. It is interesting to play with short pips (thin sponge) or OX long pips for attacking. It is not a blade for everyone, so if you are considering it, maybe you already have a good idea of the features to look for. Good build quality, good price, very light, fast, and stiff. It is definitely enjoyable to have fun during training, but way less during tournaments unless you have particular needs.

Specific blade. I was looking for a light blade, saw a popular and light one. At first I was happy that Battle 2 Gold + Jupiter 3 became much lighter on this blade. I liked the speed, but when I began to understand that there was no delay, it became difficult for me to react to fast balls, and even thick rubbers did not help much. The blade is very suitable for flat, strong hits for those who like the middle zone too. Thick sticky pads help to give a delay on the blade.

Decent blade. Good feel, control, and block. Loops are kinda hard. Overall, I would recommend to intermediate players.

This is my first Yinhe blade, and I’m amazed by its performance, quality, and feel while playing is amazing. The blade itself is OFF+ and I can say it is very fast; also, control is very good for such a fast blade, so I have managed to handle some attacks and heavy balls that caused me problems before. I used to play mostly with Joola Viking, Joola K4, and BTY Grubba Carbon among others… Rubbers I have combined are DHS G888 black on FH and Huieson Crazy Speed on BH side, both tuned with paraffin oil in two passes, which increased their spin and affected the speed a little bit. This combination is perfect for me, and the whole racket cost around 60€, which is amazing. I manage to handle transitions with a flick from both sides, attack close to the table and mid-distance, and the block is more controllable than any other blade so far and surprisingly fast, so it puts your opponent under pressure all the time. Rubbers themselves require accommodation for chops and serves, as they are tacky, but after a few trainings, everything fits perfectly. I’m not sure how it will perform with European or Japanese tensor rubbers, but I will stick to this combination for some time, as it is amazing and allows a lot of variations.

Updated: Switched rubbers to: BH — Donic Bluefire M2 and FH — Palio AK-47 Red… fast, spinny for perfect attack, even flicks are acceptable, but not so good in chops and blocks, need more training to be able to provide objective feedback.

After a few weeks I give up, this is too fast for me and my skills, I’m not able to establish control… so I replace the rubbers with Tibhar VariSpin and Yasaka Mark V GPS, played for a few weeks, nice for blocks and smashes, but for spin and loops, or chops… not so good. Plan to put classic rubbers a bit slower.

Good: blade is light and very fast. Good on forehand.

Bad: sound is loud and hollow, like if you would be hitting with a ceramic tile. Everyone in a club asks you if you have a new blade and what it is. I took rubbers down and gave a blade away. Will never use it again. Also control on backhand is bad.

I am an amateur player. I bought this blade from AliExpress. Paired, first with Battle 2 gold on FH, that combination was really difficult to control. When I put Yasaka Rakza 7 soft in max thickness, it was a miracle! Control was superb, serve was super controlled, block was consistent, active block superfast and precise, FH chop fast, linear and strong, and the best thing, for me, the strongest weapon on the planet was the fast strong smash! Any ball, with strong or weak spin, just a little high from the net, could be executed, for me with an easy hit! With a spinny-high loop, it was the same! Just BAM!!! Paired on BH with k.o.exteeme, 1.3 thickness, and it worked extraordinarily! Little dwell time, and carbon and balsa gave me superb control. Active block was easy; I just put the racket on the coming ball. Smash was easy, and I didn’t need power in stroke. Chopping was easy, but not so hard for opponents. Active game on the table was dangerous for the opponent and changed the rhythm of the game. To sum up, an excellent-light-offensive and must have blade for attack-minded players!

Yhine T11s provides extraordinary control. Combined with a Jupiter 3 (forehand) and a Mercury 2 (backhand), you can place the ball precisely. It’s difficult to miss a shot with such an incredibly light blade. The blade produces no vibrations.

The Yhine T11s is significantly slower than the Yhine T10s but offers much more control. The shots are fast, not exceptionally powerful, but very precise. This enables you to keep the ball on the table more consistently.

The Yhine T11s is an extremely affordable and high-quality blade. An equivalent balsa blade from European brands would cost significantly more. It offers an exceptional price-to-quality ratio.

Speed

This blade has excellent speed, making it suitable for fast-paced, offensive play. It allows players to generate powerful shots with ease.

Topspin

The blade’s design facilitates topspin generation, providing players with the control and spin necessary for effective topspin shots.

Hi guys! I need an opinion on which rubber I should put for this blade, Jupiter 3 or Battle 2 for FH? And do you have any recommendations on which rubber I should put for BH along with the rubbers I mentioned for the FH? Thank you!

The Yinhe T11S is an exceptional offensive blade. It is constructed with Balsa and Carbon layers, featuring a softer outer layer. When paired with Waran 2.0mm short pips and Xiom Omega rubber 2.0mm, it enhances the catapult effect, facilitating the execution of topspins and shots.

However, due to its overall hardness, controlling backhand shots can be demanding, making it less suitable for novice players. In comparison to my previous Butterfly Innerforce Layer ALC, the Yinhe T11S offers greater consistency and speed, delivering an outstanding playing experience.

With Limba top ply, Outer carbon structure, and Balsa core, you have a devastating weapon when combined with dynamic sponge rubbers (tensor ESN/Japan rubbers). Adding a little more forward arm movement in every stroke and the ball becomes a bullet. Slow/soft play great & easy to control placement. And it’s dirt cheap, only $20 for such high quality from Yinhe.

Very fast, great control. Very light. Excellent finish!

YINHE T11s features an updated appearance design from its predecessors (T11, T11+) with a gold tag adorning the handle. Its overall finish is exceptional, with an incredibly smooth outer limba surface that feels remarkably soft to the touch.

In terms of performance, its speed and control are comparable to the Sardius or Schalager blades, while maintaining a lighter weight. However, it’s not recommended for beginners, all-round players, or defensive types unless they possess advanced skills and knowledge in choosing suitable rubbers to pair with this blade.

YINHE T11s is ideal for aggressive players who prioritize attacking with a combination of medium soft to medium hard rubber or short pips on either the forehand or backhand side. I personally use Fastarc G1 (max) on the forehand and short pips on the backhand.

While the blade performs well in attacking techniques such as loops, top spins, smashes, and rallies away from the table, it requires some adaptation for active or push blocks. Passive blocks can be challenging to return, making it difficult for opponents to counter. Given its excellent quality and affordable price point, the YINHE T11s is a highly recommended alternative for experienced and skilled players.
