It doesn't flex as much as the Violin, so it feels like it's in an awkward spot. It's on the hard side and a bit tricky to handle.

No matter how hard a rubber I put on it, it felt soft - not sure why, lol.
The blade itself flies well, so a rubber that already flies a lot like Rasanter would probably lead to a lot of overshooting misses. I think it pairs well with something like a hard Hurricane or a tacky tension rubber.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness hard

As a fan of the String series, I'll say the Violin is tough for the average user to handle! That's because it flexes too much, and if you don't flex it properly the ball just won't fly! But once you really get it flexing, it's a gem that lets you hit insane drives you just can't get anywhere else!
This time I wanted to test what happens when carbon is added.
My first impression is that the feel on contact is harder! The carbon adds bounce and reduces the flex, which makes it easier to handle.
It seems well suited to short pips or long pips players!
Overall I'd rate it higher than the Acoustic Carbon, but honestly, I don't think the String series needs carbon at all.
I think regular Kevlar carbon or arylate carbon works better.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

My friend said the combination with Rasant was too heavy. And honestly, they weren't wrong — it's even heavier than my own tacky-rubber setup... But that extra weight comes with high performance, a blade that can do it all, from close-to-the-table play to rallies from mid to far distance. Once you get used to it, they say the stability feels better than any other blade, and there's apparently no technique it can't handle (lol). It does take a while to get used to though — at least a month, and up to three months for some people. Think it over carefully before buying (the price too).

Compared to the Acoustic Carbon, it's a bit slower, but its spin performance is actually better than the Acoustic Carbon. That said, since it's an outer carbon blade, it doesn't have that flexy, violin-like feel on contact. Still, it's a blade I can really recommend, so definitely give it a try.
