Dynamic J7 Darko Jorgic
Tibhar Dynamic J7 Darko Jorgic is an all-wood, 7-ply offensive blade crafted for players seeking a dynamic blend of power and precision. Inspired by Slovenian pro Darko Jorgic's aggressive style, it features a thicker Ayous core for driving force, paired with thinner Limba outer plies that refine catapult and control. This construction delivers a solid, crisp feel for powerful drives while maintaining enough flex for consistent looping. It's a versatile tool for intermediate to advanced attackers who value shot placement, spin generation, and reliable touch in their offensive game.
The construction follows a symmetrical 7-ply layout with Limba outer veneers, multiple Ayous intermediate layers, and a thicker Ayous core at the center. This arrangement aims to blend the power from the substantial core with the control and feel refined by the outer plies, creating a balanced offensive profile.

✦Our expert analysis of this blade's performance characteristics
Dynamic J7 delivers solid offensive speed, rated by the manufacturer as OFF-. It provides enough pace for powerful drives and dynamic topspins, though it doesn't reach the extreme velocity of high-end composite blades. This makes it an excellent choice for players who want attacking capability without sacrificing too much control, offering a speed level that supports an aggressive game while remaining manageable.
Control is a standout feature, with the blade offering excellent command over ball placement. The construction provides a high degree of consistency on drives and a good compromise for flicks and short game play. This level of precision allows players to execute tactical shots with confidence, making it suitable for those who value placement and reliable execution in their offensive rallies.
The blade offers a crisp, solid sensation on contact, particularly noticeable on drives. You can feel deep vibrations in the palm that communicate ball contact clearly, providing plenty of feedback. This combination of stiffness and vibration creates a communicative feel that aids touch shots and helps players sense spin and impact.
With its offensive orientation, the blade produces a medium-high throw angle that helps create deep, penetrating shots. This trajectory is ideal for keeping the ball on the table during aggressive topspins and drives, complementing modern rubber characteristics effectively.
The 7-ply all-wood construction, especially with the Ayous core and Limba outer layers, provides good dwell time. This allows for effective brushing contact, helping generate substantial spin on loops and serves. It works particularly well with modern European and Japanese rubbers that benefit from this extended ball contact.
Dynamic J7 offers medium flexibility, providing enough bend for effective looping while maintaining a slightly stiffer, more linear response compared to some other all-wood blades. This balance supports both powerful drives where stability is key and spin-oriented topspins where some flex is beneficial.
Vibration feedback is moderate—you can feel deep vibrations in the hand that aid ball sensing, yet overall vibration levels remain minimal and not distracting. This balance provides useful feedback for touch and control without becoming uncomfortable during extended play sessions.
Build quality is generally good, with smooth playing surfaces and a robust handle. Some players note the edges and wings can feel slightly rough, but this doesn't impact performance. The construction feels solid and durable during play, meeting the expected standards for a blade in this category and providing a reliable platform for consistent performance.
Technology
Tibhar Dynamic J7 employs a classic 7-ply all-wood construction where material selection and layer thickness are precisely tuned for offensive play. The design centers on a thicker Ayous core that generates the primary power, while thinner outer Limba plies refine the playing characteristics—adjusting catapult effect, hardness, and control. This layered approach represents traditional blade craftsmanship at its best, carefully balancing wood properties to optimize power delivery, ball feedback, and touch for dynamic attacking strokes.

Tibhar Samsonov Force Pro Black Edition
Another 7-ply all-wood option from Tibhar, the Samsonov Force Pro Black Edition is generally considered faster and bouncier than the Dynamic J7. Players seeking more speed and a livelier feel from a similar construction might prefer this alternative, though it may trade away some of the J7's linear control and stiffness.
Tibhar Bernadette Szocs Signature 1
This 7-ply all-wood blade offers a different feel, described as bouncier and softer compared to the J7's slightly stiffer, more linear response. Players who prefer a blade with more inherent bounce and a softer touch for enhanced feeling might find the Bernadette Szocs Signature 1 a suitable alternative, especially if they value dwell time and comfort over crisp directness.
