Our expert analysis of this blade's performance characteristics

Speed

JOOLA Classic ALL is classified as an all-round blade, offering balanced speed suitable for controlled offensive play. While not designed for maximum pace, it provides enough power for effective attacks, especially when paired with faster rubbers. The soft Candlenut core influences the feel, resulting in a speed that favors consistency and placement over raw acceleration.

Control
9.0

Control is the standout feature of the JOOLA Classic ALL. Its 5-ply construction and soft feel, attributed to the Candlenut core, provide excellent ball feedback and allow for precise shot placement. This makes it highly suitable for players who rely on placement, spin, and tactical play, offering a forgiving and predictable response.

The Candlenut core is noted for providing a high ball trajectory, which translates to a medium-high throw angle. This characteristic is advantageous for looping and clearing the net with ease, supporting an offensive, spin-oriented game.

Dwell Time

The soft nature of the Candlenut core, combined with the 5-ply all-wood construction, promotes prolonged ball contact. This increased dwell time allows for enhanced spin generation and is particularly beneficial for controlled topspin shots.

Flexibility
6.0

This blade strikes a good balance between flexibility and stiffness. It is not overly rigid, allowing for good dwell and spin, yet provides enough stability for controlled offensive shots. The soft Candlenut core contributes to its overall flexible character.

Vibration

As an all-wood blade focused on control and a soft feel, the JOOLA Classic ALL exhibits moderate vibration levels. The softer materials absorb a significant amount of impact, resulting in a comfortable playing experience without excessive harshness or feedback.
