Anyone try or use Loki Telson Speed or Telson Power blade.

[TT Lover]

Good day to all TTD Members.

I'm looking for the review of Loki Telson Speed and Telson Power blade, please be kind to share the review of these two blades if any members have experience with.

Thank you sir.
Best regards,

Hey, I ordered these to review.
Both nicely made, but the handles are thinner than on Yinhe Pro 01/05 and feels simpler. Head shapes are identical to Butterfly/Yinhe.

Telson Power is almost like Yinhe Pro 05 inner type of blade. The only difference is the top layer, which is Koto instead of Limba, but this is hard to feel in the game.

Telson Speed is slightly thinner (5.6 mm) than Zhang Jike ALC, but has the same composition. Feels more flexible, less powerful and spinner.

Both blades are worth the price (about $30).

Thank you sir.

What is the difference of Telson Speed and Telson Power such as Control>Flexible>Bouncy of these two blades from your experience.

Best regards,

@TT Lover I believe Power is less flexible.
But in general they are not too different.

My power is 1350 Hz, while the speed is 1400 Hz.
Weight is the same 88 grams.

Top ply is the same.
So the main difference is carbon position and thickness. Which mostly affects the flexibility as I see it.

Actually, I would rename it Speed → Spin. It makes more sense.

If you play more flat or powerful topspins → use Power.
If you want spinny serves and not ultra fast but spinny topspins → use Speed.

I think a real Speed version should be around 5.8 mm with 1500 hz. Maybe they'll add it in future.

Played yesterday with Jupiter 3 39" on the forehand and Yinhe Moon 12 medium hard on the backhand.
Nice combination. Still wish they made a handle like the Pro 01/05.
