OOAK Table Tennis Forum

good morning friends, I would like an opinion of you about the blade. I am looking for a blade that is fast, light and has control. I play with long pimples OX and I do a lot of twiddling. At the moment of doing it my backhand is very strong and forceful. I have tried the yuto muramatsu, Defplay senso, Black Metal TT, Zeus, Diode V, JSH and with which game is with a spinlord Ultra carbon defense. I know it's hard to choose a good blade but my finances are running out haha ​​and that's why I'm looking for advice and recommendations. thank you

I've been using the Black & White for quite a while now and am very happy with it. Very light (balsa core) and great control. Not particularly fast though, about ALL+, if that suits.

There is a thread here which discusses the blade:

Couple of reports of cracking which might be a concern.. though I've had 2 of them for quite a while without any issues.

I have Ultra carbon defence, JSH and Defplay. I play with Joola Chen Weixing blade, which is oversize, 85 g and on the fast side among def blades. I have tried many blades. Defplay etc. are too slow with new balls. JSH and UCD are too stiff for my FH loop and BH control is not the best in table play. JCW might not be best for twiddling, because of it's head size. And Troublemaker ox is better fit for JCW than Dornenglanz. I can't really recommed JCW for you, but just to put another option on the table.

Maybe you can say what's wrong with the ones you tried.

yuto muramatsu, (Speed: 85 / Control: 97 / Stiffnes: 88 and 93 gram)
Defplay senso, (Speed: 70 / Control: 94 / Stiffnes: 83 and 85 gram) (classic is only 70 gram has more control but is 1 pint slower)
Black Metal TT, (don't know this one)
Zeus, (very slow)
Diode V, (don't know values, but it's 97 gram)
JSH (it's less in everything than Diode).
spinlord Ultra carbon defense. (Speed: 90 / Control: 95 / Stiffnes: 93 and 88 gram)

What's wrong with the spinlord? Is it to hard for your pimpples?
VERY fast and HIGH control is a hard combination .

Xiom have good frames like Xiom feel SX
But andro has good ones to .... Andro TP Ligna OFF .. but also not flexible so not sure how it plays with pips .....
