I need a new offensive blade!
 

A wonderful forehand topspin...
Power with no limits...
But ONE problem...

The powerspin was suddendly stopped by the edge of the table and from one moment to the other, I only had the handle of my blade in my hand. :(

Now I need a new offensiv blade. I had the Stiga Offensive Classic for nearly 5 years. Is there a reason to change? Are there any new good blades for me? What about WRB by Stiga? What about the Samsonov blades by Tibhar?

I try to use everytime a forehand topspin, the first with spin, the next with power. (Forehand Stiga Mendo Energy max, backhand Tibhar Rapid 2.0)

I would be happy for a (quick!) help!

Hi Pascal
 

If you think, the STIGA Blade was the best for your play, why you want to change ?
Never change the winning team. If you want a faster blade, try one of the STIGA clipper Collection. These are the fastest blades. Or you try a blade from TSP, with the Balsa System, lijke the Balsa 6,5, or 8,5.

Get the Tibhar Samsonov Carbon ! It is a real power waepon !

Re: I need a new offensive blade!
 

I personally like the carbo oversize. It's true, it really feels like wood rather then carbon. Great touch and speed. I won it from Stiga, and it rocks! :)

The blade is very good, it has the same out-layer like the Stiga Offensiv Classic. The Carbo Oversize is not a typically carbon blade (with two carbon layers), the Carbo Oversize has 7 wood layers and 6 carbon layers! The ball/blade-contact is not hard, there is a very good feeling. If somebody likes this blade but not with the oversize technology, there will be the "Carbo 7.6" in a few weeks.

I am playing a Stiga Offensive Classic WRB, too. It is really a good blade. Fast and never out of control.

Never change a winning team.

Re: I need a new offensive blade!
 

I play with yasaka dynamix(i know not easy to find). It has 17 layers. 2 carbon and the rest wood. It's really fast but you still have a good control because there is not much carbon in it.

Are you looking for an alternative for this paddle?

Then I need more information:
- is the wood too fast for you ?
- not enough control ?
- too heavy ?
- is it good at top spin and blow, but the “feeling” at the short-short return is missing ?

Having played over 3 years STIGA CLIPPER WOOD I have only one advice -do not go for this blade. It's extremelly fast, indeed but it lacks of controll even more.
Together with 2 MARKV max -unplayable. (I got some yellows for hitting opponents).
Try some BTF blades - korbel or timo spirit seem ok.

AW: I need a new offensive blade!
 

the carbo 7.6 is really awesome, i changed from allround classic wrb and the speed is increased a bit and no lost of control, just try it! the sound is amazing...click tonk!
even unglued with soft rubbers like mambo iul or neos sound etc...
