Spin monster (Experience: １１〜２０ years) Convincing performance

I use this with a Chinese-penhold reverse backhand style.
Basically it pairs well with any rubber, and has plenty of bounce, on par with a carbon blade.
Thanks to the flex unique to 5-ply blades, drives with a real sense of arc seem to go in almost automatically.
That said, maybe because the top ply uses walnut (a hard wood), the ball leaves the blade quickly, so you need a certain minimum swing speed to put spin on consistently.
In that sense, it's easy to handle for intermediate players and above, and will be the strongest partner that lives up to your expectations.
A blade that makes a very high level of play possible.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

I'm left-handed, shakehand, straight grip.
I'd recommend this to people who can hit with their whole body and really put their weight into the shot.
If you put on some oddly soft, half-baked rubber, you won't get the ball you're expecting — you need something from semi-hard to hard. Otherwise, once you get to around the round of 16, you'll just get pushed around by counters and end up frustrated, nothing else.
I think it pairs quite well with Rasanter.
R48, R53, or the recently released C53 would also be good choices, I think.
If you play a power-through style of table tennis, putting Chinese rubber on it should give you some really nasty shots.Even in topspin rallies, unless the opponent's ball is extremely heavy, the rubber and blade together basically never lose out.
I'd recommend this for players from upper-intermediate up to lower-advanced level.
There's some variance depending on the individual blade, so make sure to weigh it — the ones around 84g tend to be well balanced.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

The blade weighs 80g, so even women can handle it.
At first I tried a rubber with a soft sheet and sponge, but the feel was mushy. There was a sense of losing speed right after impact, so I switched to a harder rubber.
Pachisma V is a rubber that's hard but still gives you a sense of grip on the ball, and it's a perfect match for this blade.
I've started being able to win matches with it, so I think I'll stick with it for a while.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

I bought the Chinese-penhold version.
The blade weighs 79g.
The Walnut suits short pips rubber well.
It especially suits hard Chinese-style short pips like Pachisma. Shorts in particular carry smoothly and then suddenly lose speed in the opponent's court, turning into a nasty knuckleball.
With meet-hitting, you don't get much speed, but it's easy to produce knuckleballs.
Drives are also easy to put spin on.
The handle is thick, which is perfect for someone like me who uses a claw grip.
The handle part felt a bit light, so I put power tape on the sides to adjust the weight.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Red pit viper (Experience: １１〜２０ years) Countering big drives feels amazing~

My specialty as a penhold short-pips player is baiting a drive and then countering with a smash.
It's best when the blade isn't too thick or heavy, but the blade itself is stiff, with just a bit of flex.
I figured there was no blade out there that could satisfy such contradictory requirements, but turns out there was.
So I put on a Morristo SP right away and tried countering a college player's drive.
It went in, again and again, almost comically well. One shot went straight past him without him even touching it. My opponent was shocked at how powerful my return was, coming from someone as weak as me!
With a sharp, ringing sound, a heavy knuckle-ball smash flies in on a straight trajectory. The short game around the table is easy too.
I'd been torn about whether to go back to a Galaxy or an SK7 Classic from my Inner Force Layer ALC, but I'm glad I bought this blade.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

First, after hitting with it a bit, I felt that for a 5-ply blade it flies pretty well. It also pairs well with tacky rubber, and I got a ton of spin.
That said, when you step back from the table it doesn't carry quite as much, which can be tough, so if you're someone who plays further back, it might be worth trying a bouncier rubber.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

My first impression using it was that it felt similar to the Infinity. The bounce, spin, and feel are all close, and I think it's a high-performance blade.
