Nakatomi Naoyoshi (Experience: ４〜５ years) A racket that lets your backhand swing freely

I bought the ST. There's a natural sense of the racket head rotating, and it's a blade that let me swing my backhand, which used to be my weak side.
The shape of the blade is unusual, so it looks a bit strange, but the actual feel of playing with it wasn't any different from a normal blade.
There's one downside — if you hold it normally, the grip's logo emblem hits your pinky finger, and it's pretty noticeable. Most people probably face the emblem side toward their forehand, but it might actually be better for play if you turn it the other way.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Middle 2 Ikeda City 1st place (Experience: ２〜３ years) A very good blade

It arrived after about a 3-month wait from ordering.
I've been playing table tennis for 2-3 years, and thanks to the wide sweet spot, I get good balls consistently and could do every technique really well.
I did overshoot a bit sometimes, but that's just down to my own lack of skill, so it's not a problem with the blade.
I plan to make this my main blade from now on.
Sorry for the long review.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

The back of the middle pen (Experience: ６〜１０ years) GOOD!

Top-class performance. It's a bit heavy, but the weight is balanced toward the handle, so you don't really feel it. It has carbon on the inside, and it bounces quite a lot — I feel like it's the bounciest inner blade out there. I'm not sure what type of carbon it is, but it feels close to something like the Defensive Pro.
For a STIGA blade, it's also nice that the top sheet doesn't peel off easily. It basically doesn't pick a rubber, but a STIGA rubber would probably suit it best. By the way, it's a borrowed racket, so that's about as much as I can say.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Steiga fan (Experience: More than ２０ years) Could this change table tennis as we know it?

I've been using STIGA blades for over 12 years, ever since my Evanholz days, and with this Cybershape, your eyes tend to go straight to the shape,
but on the inside, it produces a next-level ball completely naturally. Especially for backhand blocks, drives, and meet shots,
techniques I used to feel were a bit lacking in speed now come out easily. I use a Chinese-style penhold grip, and of course the short game, but also
switching between forehand and backhand is smooth, and handling balls to the body is easy. The one thing that took a little practice was serving —
if you keep the same image as with a round blade, the spin comes out unstable, but after enough reps, you can actually produce a serve spin unique to this blade.
Against topspin balls, power comes out easily, while against backspin it can stop dead in a way that feels almost unfair.
After buying it, I had some practice partners try it out, and a lot of them said it feels strange to hit with, but you can return the ball so easily!
Right before this I was using a Legacy Carbon, and since I put the same rubber on both, the difference between the blades was completely clear.
The sound and feel off the ball are fresh in a way no STIGA blade has ever given me before.
This is a gem that hides the secret to enjoying table tennis, for players from beginner to advanced level alike.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Kamogawa Delta (Experience: ４〜５ years) Flies nicely, and the ball really carries!

I bought it without even test-hitting it, but it feels amazing to play with. I was using the same rubber on my Innerforce ALC.S, and before, I really had to swing hard with my own strength to get the ball moving, which added weird tension and made things unstable — but maybe because the blade itself is a bit stiffer, the ball now flies with very little effort.
When swinging backhand, the weight seems to shift toward the parts that stick out on both sides, and the blade almost seems to rotate on its own.
I played in a match on the very first day after buying the blade and gluing on the rubber, and it felt completely natural. I think if you're used to an inner carbon blade, you won't feel much discomfort with this one either.
The shape looks like it might catch the edge a lot, but that's not really the case. The size isn't much different from a normal round blade either.
With the rubber glued on, the weight was the same as my Innerforce ALC.S. That said, the Cybershape felt slightly more solid and heavy in hand.
I think this would fit really nicely with a playing style that stays close to the table.

Thompson (Experience: １１〜２０ years) The best blade I've found in a long time

2021/12/09
It was sold out everywhere I looked, so I'm writing this review now that I've finally managed to get one. In a word, it's an amazing blade, and I plan to make it my main one going forward.
Just like advertised, this blade has a wide sweet spot, so even when your contact point is off or your form gets broken, you can still easily hit a satisfying, powerful shot. Thanks to that, it really shows its strength in rally exchanges.
On top of that, the short game and receives are incredibly easy to do. Chiquitas, flicks, and sliding shots all feel several times easier than usual. It's almost an illusion that I've gotten better — really it's the blade doing the work, lol.
The drawbacks are that the frame gets hit a bit more often now, the serve spin takes some getting used to, and even though it's an inner blade, it bounces quite a lot, so control is a little tricky. But I think these are drawbacks you can fully cover with practice.
Lastly, as proven by a world No. 2's results, I think this will become everyone's best partner on the table.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Here are my impressions after a test hit: the first thing I noticed was that it flies a lot. Maybe because I normally use an inner blade, but even compared to a friend's Timo Boll ALC, it flew noticeably more. As for the good points, the drive shows no sign of dropping off. Even a light swing produced a good ball. The short game wasn't especially hard either — if anything it was easier. As for the shape of the blade, I expected it to feel off, but once I actually played with it, there was no discomfort at all. When I asked my opponent about it, they said "it feels nothing but weird," which might actually be a good sign. Overall, it's a really great blade.
