The Infinity VPS V - with Diamond Touch is a lightweight 5-ply offensive blade built around two hand-selected middle veneers that are special temperature treated (VPS-technology). This gives the blade a unique stability and the Infinity VPS V is ideal for offensive players who demands good speed combined with control. The final finish by the Diamond Touch technology gives the outer surface extra hardness and an incredibly smooth finish.

I'm using this alongside andro's TIMBER7 OFF/S (a 7-ply, 6.9mm blade).
The piece I got has a 6.0mm thickness and weighs 92g. Both the thickness and weight are above standard. Total weight including rubber etc. is 187g.
When hitting, it doesn't shock my hand as much as the TIMBER7 OFF/S does. I didn't feel much hardness either.
Both light and hard shots fly in a fairly flat, straight line.
That said, loop drives still trace a proper arc.
Hitting harder produces a higher-pitched sound off the ball.What really stands out is the control and maneuverability. Not just long/short and left/right placement, but also the height of the arc and the amount of spin come out exactly as intended.
I'm not great at flicking back no-spin balls, but thanks to how maneuverable this is, my net mistakes dropped dramatically.
That said, if you push the same way you would with the TIMBER7 OFF/S, the ball floats up. You need to close the racket angle quite a bit more than you'd expect.(Update) Once I switched to a harder rubber, my pushes stopped floating.
I didn't notice any major weaknesses in the short game or at mid-distance either. Overall, this is a blade that's easy for me to use.

The ball-holding feel and speed are both great, so it's a blade that's very well suited to topspin play.

I used Rakza 7 on the forehand.
First off, this blade flies. It might even fly more than a mediocre inner-carbon blade.
The harder you hit it, the more it flies.
I used long pips on the backhand, and surprisingly it worked well. On blocks, since it doesn't fly too much, the ball stays low and sharp, and on pushes I could punch through easily.
Finally, since this blade is light, it seems like it could handle tacky rubber on both sides too.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

On light shots it makes a light "poc-poc" sound,
but when you really catch the ball well it makes almost a metallic ring.
It's a pretty bouncy blade, and if you don't control it properly the ball flies away on you.
It's a fairly demanding blade to handle, but when that metallic sound rings out on a drive, that's proof you caught it right.
Do that and you can produce really powerful shots.
For hard hits, catching the ball cleanly is what really matters, so I'd say this is a blade strictly for top players and advanced players.
The grip shape makes the backhand easy to hit.
I'm using STIGA's DNA rubber on it.
This helps ease the difficulty of the Infinity blade.
I feel like tacky rubber would work fine too, but I think this combination is good.
It's a pretty difficult blade, but once you can handle it, it's an exceptional piece of equipment.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Honestly, I think this is a great blade.
Among 5-ply blades it's on the hard side and flies well, and the trajectory is pretty flat too.
It's hard to find a blade this light with this much performance.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

I bought this after hearing good things about it. It seriously flies a lot. It's on the heavier side, but when you swing all the way through and catch the ball on the sweet spot, the feel is firm and it flies just as much as a carbon or special-material blade. On lighter shots you get that typical wood control, and it's very easy to put spin on the ball. I think anyone from beginner to intermediate level would be satisfied with it.

I used it with a tacky rubber called Ares on the forehand — the so-called tacky-tension type.
With this rubber combo on a 93g blade, it ended up pretty heavy.As for performance, what I felt was "good balance even at a high level." Attacking play, defensive play, serves from the short game — everything about it is satisfying.
What I liked most was that, being wood, it's easy to change pace with.
When buying, it's better to have the shop weigh it for you. Once it's over 90g, picking rubber gets tricky.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard
