      I recently went back to the Routis. The flex is just right, and even though it's hard, I once again thought it's a great blade! Just take this as a reference!

      People like Taburu Terauchi (Experience: 2〜3 years) Hard but good d(^_^o)

      Player reviews

      As the title says, it's hard but it's a good blade. Thanks to the G-carbon, it's fast, and the thin, flexible wood gives satisfying spin too. It didn't feel like it flew too far.
      Also, I think this blade's strength is its unique trajectory — somewhere between a straight line and an arc.
      To sum up, it feels like a carbon blade that plays like solid hard wood.

      Drive haste person (Special training in) (Experience: 2〜3 years) Stable even close to the table

      Player reviews

      I switched from a pure wood blade because I wanted more power on my topspin drives. Since I basically play close to the table, I figured control might be tricky with an outer-ply blade, but this one flexes nicely, and if anything my counter-hitting precision actually improved compared to before. It also bounces well, so flat/meet hits are easy to pull off too.
      I'd recommend it to anyone looking for power and stability in their attacking game.

      In one drive attack (Experience: 2〜3 years) As expected from Ma Long's blade

      Player reviews

      This is the blade Ma Long used back in 2009. First off, it's hard, so it kicks the ball back nicely. It's also really thin — thinner than the Viscaria. That gives it great flex. Even when you back away from the table it still flies, so you can play with confidence. It really shows why this is the equipment of the world's number 1 ranked player. If you're a fan of Ma Long, definitely give it a try.

      This blade is famous for having been used by Ma Long, and it really lives up to that reputation.
      The flex is amazing. Topspin drives feel really stable.

      Player reviews

      Might be the rubber, but my pushes really bite. If I'm putting spin on a push, it feels more like "long and fast" than "short." I think it's a pretty good blade. I like it a lot too!
