Biaowang 1
Globe Biaowang 1 is a 7-ply hybrid table tennis blade built for aggressive, offensive play. It combines five wood layers with two inner carbon plies to deliver a crisp, medium-hard feel that excels in fast attacks and powerful looping. Designed for intermediate to advanced players, this blade offers a compelling balance of speed and control, making it a strong choice for those who dominate points with dynamic drives and smashes from all distances.
The blade features a 7-ply construction with five wood layers and two inner carbon layers. This 5+2 configuration is designed to provide increased stiffness and speed from the carbon while the outer wood plies help maintain a familiar feel and touch for the player.
TT Sensei Ratings
✦Our expert analysis of this blade's performance characteristics
Globe Biaowang 1 earns its high speed rating from its OFF+ designation and hybrid construction. The inner carbon layers create a powerful, fast rebound, ideal for executing rapid attacks from close to the table or unleashing heavy drives from mid-distance. Players report it provides the explosive pace needed for a dominant offensive game.
Despite its emphasis on speed, this blade maintains impressive control. The strategic placement of carbon within the wood stack helps retain feel and predictability, allowing players to place precise shots even during fast exchanges. Our testing shows you can confidently execute controlled loops and sharp angles without sacrificing offensive intent.
The combination of five wood plies and two inner carbon layers produces a medium-hard feel. Contact is crisp and direct, providing clear feedback that suits aggressive shots, though it offers slightly less dwell and vibration than a pure all-wood blade.
It typically produces a medium-high throw angle, which is excellent for creating aggressive, arcing loops that dive deep onto the opponent's side of the table, adding safety and depth to offensive topspin play.
Dwell time is moderate. The inner carbon structure provides enough contact for effective spin generation on loops and serves, but not so much that it slows down the blade's direct, powerful response for flat hits and smashes.
The blade is relatively stiff, a characteristic of its 7-ply build with carbon reinforcement. This low flexibility contributes to its direct power transfer and fast rebound, favoring players who drive through the ball with compact, explosive strokes.
Vibration is at a medium level. The carbon layers dampen some of the raw wood feedback, resulting in a feel that is less harsh than some all-wood offensive blades but still provides enough sensation for players to gauge their shots effectively.
Globe Biaowang 1 offers solid build quality at a realistic price point. TTSensei experts note that its construction provides good durability and consistent performance, representing a practical choice for players seeking capable equipment without a premium cost. The focus is on delivering reliable performance for competitive play.
Technology
Globe Biaowang 1 utilizes a hybrid construction technology, integrating two carbon fiber layers within a seven-ply stack of wood. This design strategically places the carbon on the inner plies to enlarge the sweet spot and enhance power without creating an overly harsh or rigid feel. The goal is to merge the speed and stability of carbon with the touch and spin potential of wood, a balance sought in modern offensive blade engineering for players who want power without completely sacrificing feedback.
