Nostalgic Offensive

Nostalgic Offensive is significantly faster than the classic Offensive Classic, thanks to its thicker construction and elastic Wenge outer veneers. This high speed rating allows for powerful offensive shots that can compete with some composite blades, making it a dynamic choice for aggressive play.

For an offensive blade, it offers a good level of control, particularly for players familiar with all-wood feel. The generous dwell time supports controlled spin generation, though pairing it with very fast rubbers requires precise technique and quick footwork to maintain consistency.

It provides a soft overall feeling with a distinct sharp sensation at the index finger, characteristic of the Nostalgic series. This 'deep hold' feel is excellent for spin development and offers a comfortable, connected touch, though some may find the edges sharp initially.

When paired with spin-oriented rubbers, the blade produces a medium-high arc. This is beneficial for generating heavy topspin and comfortably clearing the net during aggressive looping sequences.

A standout feature, the blade offers significant dwell time. This allows for excellent spin manipulation and a secure, confident feeling when executing powerful topspin shots, giving players ample time to brush the ball.

The elastic Wenge outer plies combined with the wood construction create a balanced medium flexibility. This blend is crucial for generating both spin and power, offering a responsive feel without being too stiff or too soft.

The blade's soft feeling translates to medium-low vibration levels. It provides clear, comfortable feedback without excessive or jarring sensations, which is notable for an offensive-oriented wood blade.

Handcrafted in Sweden with high-quality materials, this blade reflects excellent manufacturing standards. The use of premium Wenge wood and environmentally friendly adhesives contributes to its durable build and refined finish, justifying its premium positioning.
