Nexy Peter Pan is a 5-ply all-wood blade designed for players who value a flexible, controllable, and spin-oriented game. It combines a classic wood feel with Nexy's Burn Technology, applied to its Kiri core and Ayous medial plies, beneath Limba outer layers. This construction delivers a balanced blend of speed, control, and dwell time, making it an excellent choice for offensive play focused on looping and close-to-table counter-attacks. Players appreciate its consistent performance and excellent tactile feedback, positioning it as a strong contender in the OFF- category.
The blade features a 5-ply all-wood construction. The outer plies are Limba, providing a soft touch and good feel. The medial plies are Ayous, adding to the blade's stability.

✦Our expert analysis of this blade's performance characteristics
Nexy Peter Pan is generally considered an OFF- class blade. TTSensei experts note its ability to deliver fast, linear shots with accuracy, with some comparisons to faster blades like the Stiga Clipper. The Burn Technology on the core is credited with providing higher gears when needed. Pairing it with OFF+ rubbers is recommended to maximize its offensive potential.
Control is a standout feature of the Nexy Peter Pan. Its excellent feel and consistent response in both passive strokes and active attacks allow for precise placement and skillful short game play. This high level of control makes it suitable for players who like to vary their game, employ soft touches, and maintain consistency during rallies.
Nexy Peter Pan offers a distinct, natural wood feel, often described as soft due to its Limba outer plies. This tactile feedback is highly valued by players who rely on touch and precision, especially in the short game. It provides clear feedback on ball impact without excessive harshness.
Nexy Peter Pan has a medium throw angle. This characteristic allows for a good arc on strokes, facilitating spin generation while maintaining control. It's not excessively high or low, making it adaptable to different types of shots and playing styles.
While offering good spin potential, our testing shows it may have a slightly shorter dwell time compared to pure looping blades, trading some dwell for speed and a linear trajectory. However, the Burn Technology and wood construction still allow sufficient dwell to generate spin effectively with modern rubbers.
Peter Pan is characterized as a flexible blade, which aids in generating spin and provides a comfortable, forgiving feel on impact. This flexibility is advantageous for looping and controlling the ball, making it well-suited for players who employ a spin-heavy strategy.
Nexy Peter Pan has a moderate level of vibration, providing clear, informative feedback without being overly harsh. Players report feeling the sweet spot distinctly, which aids in shot execution. It achieves a good balance, avoiding excessive or distracting vibrations.

Similar Blades
Stiga Offensive Classic
Many players find similarities between the Nexy Peter Pan and the Stiga Offensive Classic. Both are 5-ply all-wood blades in a similar speed category (OFF- to ALL+). The Peter Pan is described as feeling slightly harder at comparable speeds, offering a similar wood feel with excellent control and spin.
Tibhar Stratus Power Wood
Nexy Peter Pan is also compared to the Tibhar Stratus Power Wood due to its natural Limba outer plies, which give it a feel closer to other classic wood blades. Both blades aim to provide a good balance of speed, control, and feel suitable for an all-around offensive game.
