Our expert analysis of this blade's performance characteristics

Speed
8.5

Speed varies between versions, with standard wood constructions offering good offensive pace while composite variants push into faster territory. Players report the blade provides enough power for aggressive attacks without becoming uncontrollable, making it effective for both quick counter-attacks and sustained topspin rallies.

Control
8.0

Control stands out as a strong point, especially in non-composite versions. The blade offers predictable response and good feel that helps with shot placement and spin execution. Even composite models maintain respectable control despite their increased speed potential.

Feel
Medium
SoftMediumHard

Delivers a pleasant, responsive feel with good ball feedback. Wood versions offer a slightly softer touch while composite models provide more direct feedback, but both maintain that essential connection to the ball that helps with spin and touch shots.

Throw Angle
Medium-High
LowMedium-HighHigh

Produces a medium-high throw angle that supports powerful topspin loops, especially effective from mid-distance. This characteristic helps generate good arc on shots while maintaining offensive penetration.

Dwell Time
7.5

Offers moderate to long dwell time, allowing rubbers to grip the ball effectively for spin generation. This characteristic makes it particularly effective for topspin-oriented play and brush-looping techniques.

Flexibility
5.0

Features medium flexibility that contributes to good dwell time while maintaining enough rigidity for offensive power. Composite versions tend to be slightly stiffer but still within a manageable range for most players.

Vibration
5.0

Provides balanced vibration feedback—enough to feel the ball contact clearly without being overly harsh. Some composite versions may feel more direct with slightly less vibration dampening.

Quality
8.5

Build quality receives consistent praise with excellent finishes and durable construction. Materials feel substantial and well-processed, contributing to both aesthetic appeal and long-term performance reliability.

Technology

Andro's Kinetic technology integrates into the grip area to enhance overall performance feel, while composite versions incorporate materials like Zylon-Carbon for improved stability and power. Some variants feature anti-torsion ply technology designed to reduce vibrations and provide a more direct playing experience. These technologies work together to create a blade that balances modern performance characteristics with traditional playing feel.
