New Stiga Legacy Carbon Blade

Found this on Stiga's Instagram story. Seems to be a new carbon blade, with "Energy Carbon"

I hope this is not a Super Carbon reborn

This blade doesn't seem to have their Textreme Technology, so maybe they have a new type of carbon

Blade compositions are available: Limba-12K Carbon-Pine-ayous core-Pine-12K Carbon-Limba
I expect a rather soft outer carbon blade (due to pine below carbon) with woody feel (ayous core and Limba outer veneer). Speed will depend also on the total thickness of the blade, but since the last Stiga blades like Dynasty Carbon weren‘t so fast, this could also be a feely „low-end“ off category blade.

what do you expect? Are there already news about the launch date and are there some members who will receive it upfront and can review it?

Not sure, but on STIGAs Chinese website it showed this blade and a Fan ZhenDong version of this blade as well.
Here's a rough translation:

In the spring of 2020, STIGA will be launched, and Fan Zhendong's personal soleplate Fan is the orange standard-Legacy Carbon FZD. This floor has been communicated by the Swedish engineer and Fan Zhendong many times, and invited Fan Zhendong to personally participate in the design. According to the feedback from the athletes, the commissioning has been continuously adjusted to finally create a new floor specially designed for Fan Zhendong-Fan Department Orange Label. The soleplate material uses carefully selected Stica classic wood with the latest developed 12K energy carbon technology, which not only keeps this soleplate strong offensive, but also has more outstanding stability. The overall design of the soleplate is more in line with the requirements of Fan Zhendong. .


12K energy carbon


The high-end 12K energy carbon adopts the well-known stretch carbon fiber technology, with a carbon fiber ratio of 88g / m². The light carbon layer created thereby can increase the energy of the base plate and improve the energy transfer on the surface of the base plate.


Each carbon bundle of 12K energy carbon used for Legacy Carbon contains 12,000 fine carbon wires, which increases the hardness of the bottom plate, and the sweet zone also increases. The bottom plate can provide powerful no matter where the ball is hit. Return the ball.


Stika Classic Wood


The combination of middle-layer African white wood and facewood Limba can improve the ball's dwell time during the stroke. This structure allows the base plate to have better control and feel during fast and fierce competition. The harder pine for the second layer can improve the ball trajectory and strength, which also makes the floor have offensive attributes and good balance at the same time.


Big core: African white wood


· When manufacturing a fast and reliable base plate with high performance, it is important to choose the right large core.


· African white wood is a fully tested Stica classic core material, which is also the wood we have carefully selected and cut with the highest precision.


· We chose to combine African white wood, pine wood and Limba with precise thickness first, and then combine them with the new 12K energy carbon better.


Second floor: pine


· Legacy Carbon is the first carbon base plate with pine as the second layer. The medium-to-hard density properties of pine provide an excellent choice for wood as the second layer of the floor.


All pine wood for Legacy Carbon is carefully selected, treated and cut before production.


· Because the density of pine wood is from medium to hard, combined with the hard carbon fiber of 12K energy carbon, the performance of the floor is extraordinary.


Carbon fiber layer: 12K energy carbon


· The development of 12K energy carbon technology is completed in close cooperation with Swedish engineers, focusing on increasing the sweet area of ​​the bottom plate and the overall performance of the bottom plate.


Surface material: Limba


· We always choose first-class wood with high durability as the surface material for the bottom plate.


· The base plate created by Limba as a surface material has a solid surface and excellent touch, and the hand feel is even better when combined with 12K carbon fiber.


· We provide Fanace Orange Standard Legacy Carbon with a more uniform texture to improve the overall texture of the bottom plate, making its appearance and feel more outstanding.


Inherit the classic handle and nameplate


handle


· Fan Department Orange Standard Legacy Carbon FZD uses high-end Italian dyed wood to make handles, while the handles of Stica's bottom plate have continued the Stika's years of production philosophy and design style, and echo the traditional Swedish design.


· In order to minimize the pressure on the wrist of the bottom plate, the Steka handle is ergonomically designed to have a very comfortable grip. The handle is 3D modeled and tested, so the finished product can provide the best grip for forehand and backhand.


· The handles are all developed by Stica's advanced R & D department and manufactured by high-tech machinery.


Nameplate and tail


· Adjusted lightweight nameplate can best maintain the balance of the bottom plate.


· The nameplate is treated with a special coating to extend the service life and prevent sweat corrosion.


· The nameplate on the front of the handle is designed by STIGA and Mr. Fan Zhendong. It is made of stainless steel, the nameplate is orange, and the signature is embossed. It is also equipped with a special PU wooden boutique box (containing a limited number of table tennis and a re-engraved nameplate key). Buckle and Fan Zhendong's collection), highlighting the special identity of this floor.


Carbon Age Legacy Carbon.


At the same time, we launched a market version of the same series as the Fan Series Orange Standard Legacy Carbon FZD-Legacy Carbon. This base plate also uses 12K energy carbon technology and a highly aggressive 5 + 2 layer base plate structure. , Is a more cost-effective product.


Fan Department Orange Standard Legacy Carbon FZD and Carbon Era Legacy Carbon will be available in April, so stay tuned.
