I bought this because I was drawn to the shape.
True to the Cyber Shape design, the sweet spot is wider than on the normal Clipper Wood. The balance point is also a bit more toward the tip, though not as much as a WRB-type blade. Because of that, it's easier to swing through than the normal version. It gives the impression that chiquitas, flicks, and other short-game techniques over the table are easier to pull off.
On paper it's 5g lighter than the normal version, but because the blade surface is wider, the total weight ends up heavier once you put rubber on. That's the downside.
Overall it's a solid, orthodox 7-ply blade, so I think it's a good option to have as another choice.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I found every technique — topspin drives, smashes, flicks, blocks — really easy to pull off.
Compared to a flared blade, the weight balance sits a bit more toward the tip, but if that doesn't bother you, I think this is a very well-rounded, well-finished blade.
The speed doesn't quite reach that of an outer carbon blade, but it's still plenty fast. Even when I dropped back to mid-distance play, I never felt short on power.
Also, rather than relying on flex to generate speed, this blade is the type that lets you control the ball by making the most of its good ball-holding feel. Because of that, I also found meeting the ball for flat shots very easy to do.
It doesn't stand out in any one particular area, but the overall balance is excellent, so I'd give it a 10 out of 10 overall.

Switched over from the Allround Evolution.
Moving from 5-ply to 7-ply, but the control is good and it flies just the right amount, so I made the switch without any awkwardness.
Maybe because it got a bit heavier with the cyber shape, I've been hitting the edge of the blade more often.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Soft

I'd been playing table tennis with a carbon racket plus max-thickness rubber on both sides at close to 200g, but my wrists started hurting because of my age, so I decided to switch to enjoying the game with thick rubber on both sides instead, and I bought this one partly because of its unusual shape too.
Given the racket's bounce and the power of thick rubber on both sides, I've set it up as a build suited to roughly mid-distance play.
The total weight comes to 189-190g.
Fastarc G-1 on the forehand is easy to land both in the short game and in rallies, but the trajectory tends to float a bit after it bounces on the opponent's side, so it looks easy for opponents to attack too.
That's something I need to work on with my stroke going forward.
Rakza X on the backhand seems to be a really good match.
Whether I put spin on it, hit it hard, or block, the ball lands on the table nicely.
Overall it's a racket that gives an impression of a lot of bounce, so you need to choose your rubber with your playing distance from the table and your tactics in mind.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard
