What are your thoughts or expectations on this new defensive blade?

Quote: There are not many noteworthy defense blades in the table tennis market. The andro® research team has lined up to introduce a further notable blade: andro® PARADE DEF! The thin and utmost fine blade construction enables precise and dreamlike counters against topspin attacks. Handle measures have been worked over and adjusted to a defense player’s requirements whilst the blade sheet has a perfect lengthwidth-relation. Through the blade geometry’s optimization PARADE DEF provides an enlarged sweetspot and perfect balance. The blade masters opponents’ strokes superbly until you get the chance to break away from defense to attacking. In this position the blade provides all its secureness to make your attack a successful one. A real highlight among defensive blades of the modern era.

anyone tried?

Though I'm a fan of Andro rubbers and glue, I've never even considered buying Andro blade.
At the moment I am in-love with my Def II and I'm waiting for the release of Def III
But in general it would be interesting to hear about Parade def too, I'm hoping someone will try it
