Super Core Cell OFF-
Andro Super Core Cell OFF- is a versatile offensive blade designed for players seeking a perfect balance of speed, control, and feel. It delivers the power needed for aggressive topspin and drives while maintaining the natural, responsive feedback of an all-wood construction. This makes it an excellent choice for a wide range of offensive players who value both attacking power and delicate touch. The innovative Super Core Cell technology in the handle enhances comfort and stability by reducing vibrations, helping players execute shots with confidence during intense rallies. It's a reliable and well-rounded tool for sportive athletes looking to elevate their offensive game.
This blade is built with a 5-ply all-wood construction. While the specific wood types for each layer are not publicly detailed, the design focuses on selected wood plies to create a balanced blend of feel, control, and offensive speed. The 'Super Core Cell' technology is a handle-specific feature and not a material layer within the blade's ply stack.

✦Our expert analysis of this blade's performance characteristics
This blade operates at the higher end of the OFF- category, offering sufficient pace for powerful loops and drives. Our testing shows it provides the speed needed for aggressive play while maintaining a connection to the ball that faster, stiffer blades often lack. It's quick enough for offensive rallies but stops short of the extreme, hard-to-control speeds of OFF+ blades, making it a very manageable and effective offensive tool.
Control is a standout strength. Players report excellent ball feel and precision, allowing for reliable blocking, consistent stroke execution, and accurate placement even during fast exchanges. This high level of control, combined with its offensive speed, creates a blade that feels secure and predictable, giving players the confidence to attack without fear of over-hitting or losing accuracy.
The blade provides a medium-soft feel upon contact, offering a pleasant dwell and clear feedback. It's not overly stiff or hard, which helps with spin generation and touch shots, yet it retains enough firmness to feel solid during powerful drives. This tactile sensation is often compared favorably to control-oriented all-wood blades.
The combination of good dwell time and offensive pace typically produces a medium-high throw angle. This is ideal for offensive topspin play, allowing players to create effective arcs over the net for deep, spinny loops while still maintaining control over the ball's trajectory.
For an offensive blade, it offers commendable dwell time. This extended contact allows players to brush the ball effectively, generating significant spin on loops and providing a greater sense of control during passive blocks and touch play near the net.
It strikes a good balance between stiffness and flex. There's enough give to aid spin production and dwell time, but sufficient firmness to ensure a solid, direct response on faster attacking strokes. This medium flexibility makes it versatile and easy to adapt to different strokes.
The Super Core Cell handle technology is designed to absorb and dampen vibrations. This results in a comfortable, arm-friendly feel that reduces harsh feedback and player fatigue, contributing to better control and a smoother overall playing experience.
TTSensei experts note this as a well-constructed blade with good material quality and a successful design. It delivers consistent performance and holds up well to regular play. While manufactured in China, the build quality is reliable and meets the standards expected for a blade in this category, offering good value and durability.
Technology
The key innovation is the Super Core Cell technology integrated into the handle. This involves a specialized foam-infused core designed to absorb and dissipate unwanted vibrations. This enhances player comfort, reduces fatigue, and improves shot stability by providing a cleaner, more solid feel upon impact. The blade itself uses a 5-ply all-wood construction with selected veneers to optimize energy transfer and provide a natural, responsive playing characteristic.
