TSP x.Series Offensive Carbon is designed for all-out aggressive players. The constant bounce of the ball is the result achieved by combining seven high quality veneers with two Carbon layers, which lay directly next to the core veneer. Thereby TSP x.Series Offensive Carbon possesses a large sweet spot and impressing speed.

My first impression when I hit with it was that it's really heavy, but the bounce felt pretty good. The power on drives and smashes is insane, so I kept overshooting at first, but backhand flicks and chiquitas turned out to be surprisingly easy too.
Once you get used to it, spin is easy to put on, and I think it can handle heavy, hard tension rubbers fine. If you go max thickness on both sides you'll need quite a bit of strength, so at first I'd recommend a lighter rubber like Zalt. It suits intermediate-to-advanced drive players who play mid-distance to away from the table.

This is the first special-material racket I've used. It's not one of those "gripping" special-material blades that are popular these days — it's a racket that just flies. The ball release is fast and the racket is heavy, so unless you have power and a fast swing, I think it's hard to generate spin on drives. It's honestly more than I can handle. That said, thanks to the fast ball release, smashes get real power, and it pairs really well with short pips. For inverted rubber, I think something quite soft and spin-oriented, tension-type, that shoots upward the instant you hit it works well; for short pips, something with horizontal-grain pips, or a non-slippery vertical-grain type like Moristo SP, seems to suit it. I'd recommend this to people who are confident in their swing speed and want to make the most of their power, people who love smashing, and people looking for a so-called "carbon racket." Also, the rubber tends to peel off a little easily, so you should glue it on firmly.

It's really heavy.
When I first started using it I kept overshooting, but once I got used to it, playing from mid-distance and away from the table became a lot easier!
I wouldn't recommend it for beginners.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness hard

This is the first special-material racket I've ever used.
First off, when you hit the ball it feels less like a bounce and more like the ball just shoots off. Because of that, if your swing is slow you get overpowered by the rebound and end up with a lot of net misses and overshoots. For some reason it also feels like whatever rubber you put on this racket comes off quickly.
That said, thanks to the fast ball release, hitting flat with short pips gives you good speed and the ball goes in easily.
So this racket suits powerful drive players, or people who rely more on smashes than topspin drives.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness hard

This is my first special-material racket.
It's got a lot of bounce.
When I first started using it I kept getting overshoot misses one after another, but smashes are fast, and blocks turn into counters just by touching the ball.
It's got enough hardness that you don't lose out even when you mishit the opponent's topspin drive.
For topspin drives, if your swing speed isn't fast enough, the racket's rebound tends to win out and you end up hitting the net or overshooting.
I think this is something you can get used to and master with practice, so it might be good for intermediate-or-above players who want a cheaper racket but still don't want one that lacks bounce.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness hard
