      The blade is the Korbel Speed blade, so it's fast and easy to use. If you put in the effort, you can even use it away from the table.

      This is an easy-to-use blade for junior high schoolers.
      Control is really easy,
      and it gets a lot of spin.
      Speed is average.
      I think it's suited for playing close to the table.
      Since switching to this blade, I've been winning more matches.

      excellent (Experience: 2〜3 years)

      Player reviews

      It's easy to get service aces with this, so I'd recommend it for topspin drive players who play from mid-distance.

      Hilo (Experience: 4〜5 years) Outstanding stability!

      Player reviews

      I switched over from the Timo Boll ALC. Since this is an all-wood blade, the bounce is a bit weaker, but it's easy to generate spin with and the stability is outstanding. I personally like the feel, which gives a fair bit of feedback through your hand. It's easy to use both close to the table and away from it, but if I had to pick, I'd say it's better suited for close-to-the-table play.

      Fast (Experience: Less than a year) Stable

      Player reviews

      I felt this is an all-round blade. I use it for an unorthodox attacking style, and it's easy to generate spin with and easy to block with too. I'd recommend it to drive-dominant players and unorthodox attackers.

      Man-chan (Experience: 4〜5 years) Good for the price!

      Player reviews

      I think this is a really great blade.
      I've also used blades like the Innerforce and the Timo Boll,
      but this one holds its own against them. I'd say the control is the best of the bunch, and topspin drives land consistently too — I'd recommend it!

      The spin on topspin drives is amazing.
      I think it pairs really well with Rasant Power Grip.
      Of course, Tenergy works great with it too.
