      Beginner cutman (Experience: 2〜3 years) Light and easy to control

      Player reviews

      I switched from the Diode V, and my first impression was that it's quite light, so I could swing through fully, which made it easy to put spin on the ball and easy to control. That said, it doesn't get overpowered by an opponent's spin either, and when attacking it still gives decent power - I thought it was a good blade overall.
      I use DNA Hybrid M on my forehand, but I was getting a lot of over-hits, so I think a rubber with a slightly more restrained bounce would be easier to use and would make both offense and defense more stable. If you can handle a tension rubber well, it's a blade that suits it nicely too.

      Elderly hairdresser Disappointing

      Player reviews

      I bought this because the Spline N2 was discontinued. The sound of hitting the ball was like a rental racket at a gym, which was a bit of a letdown. In terms of performance, it doesn't have much power, so if you make sure to swing through properly, you can hit good shots. I think a bouncier rubber would be better.

      Apprentice cutter (Experience: 4〜5 years) Easy to keep in check, control is amazing

      Player reviews

      I switched from the Innerforce Layer ALC with Hurricane on the forehand and Vertical 20 on the backhand. Just like the previous model, the stability is really high, and I get the impression that basically anything I try goes in. The bounce is still restrained, but it's slightly stronger than the previous Defensive Classic, and it's also a bit heavier, so I don't get pushed back by my opponent's power. I think I'd want something a bit bouncier than DNA Pro M on the forehand. It's a really great blade.
