Basically it suits any playing style.
Whether you're an unorthodox-rubber player or a chopper,
and of course, inverted rubber on both sides works great too.
It's definitely worth trying!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Yutchi@Cut Compatibility with pips rubber

It pairs amazingly well with long pips. It's quite thin and flexes, so it's easy to get spin on, and since the wood is on the harder side, your long pips really bite. I'd recommend it for shakehand players who use pips on the backhand!

At 100g, it's a pretty heavy blade. I glued on a high-energy inverted rubber and it became really hard to maneuver, but as soon as I switched to extra-thin, short pips, or long pips rubber, I was able to get a lot of power and control.

It's really good — easy to control too — but... it's a shame it only comes in FL (flared handle).

I tried out a sample.
I'm normally the type who picks the lightest blade possible, even by just 1g, so this might not be a very helpful reference, but honestly I was surprised.
Blocking is so easy! Or rather, the blade never loses out to the opponent's power.
I thought, so this is what's good about a heavy blade!
As for blocking, it'd be an exaggeration to say the ball comes back just by touching the blade, but it's not entirely a lie either.
You'd think being heavy makes the shots feel hard, but that's not the case at all — you can hit drives with a nice arc.
That said, it is heavy, so if you want to hit drives aggressively, I think you have no choice but to go with a thinner rubber.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch
