5 out of 5 rating for Appelgren Exclusive

The blade is as described - heavier weights play slightly faster, but this is still a relatively slow blade for the relatively close to the table player or the control looper with a spin over speed focus away from the table. The straight handle is quite large for people who like that. The pair I had played consistently at 87g. I would recommend this blade to players starting out, as well as to advanced players who want something that is easier to control with close to the table play or with non-inverted rubbers.

I bought this blade to re educate my strokes. Previsouly i used Rosewood V with 2 Rakzas, way too fast to my level.

I paired this blade with two Mark V AD. Yea, it is slow, reaaly slow. But that is just what i wanted. This combo has a really low throw, i mean it, so every shot i have to do the proper technic to hit the other side.

Spin i think its low but mainly due the rubber. only if i dig deep in the sponge i can produce good spin. Thats good for my strategy because oponent is getting used to you flat and low balls and then you make a spinny slow loop. Due its elasticity i can make really fast backhand swings, being my primary kill shot.

It is awesome for blocking topspins but tricky to do so with flat hits. Sweet spot is medium.

Overall id rate this blade as 8, as long as you are a newplayer/developing intermediate. You must go for every shot, you will have a good control. And its light, mine came as 77g. With rubber i think its around 140g.

I would say it is a good Blade for Beginners. It is not very fast and easy to control. Furthermore it is not very expensive and it is a nice feeling, holding it.
