Andrea,

Will I notice a significant difference between the V5 Pro, Parla and Fextra 7 Fextra One given all 3 are 7 ply wood blades? Thank you.
Firstly, the material of the three blades is different:

V5 Pro 👉 Ash wood- Ayous- Basswood- Kiri core

Fextra One👉 Limba- limba- Ayous- Ayous core

Parla👉 Limba- Ayous- Ayous-Ayous core

Secondly, V5 Pro is designed for quick-attack, you could see that the outermost two layers of material are stiff and provide perfect elasticity and first speed.
The third layer and the big core provide lightweight for the blade.

Fextra One and Parla are designed for looping, the difference between them is structure. Fextra One is an equal-thickness structure, which pays more attention to the stability of the looping and the ball holding.

Parla is a different thickness structure, it focuses more on being more aggressive while hitting the looping.

Hello
I am interested in Sanwei 502E, which is similar to my current blade Sanwei CC. The question is, how hard should you hit the ball to carbon kick in and their difference in top speed.
The Sanwei 502E has already been discontinued. It's successor is the Sanwei Accumulator C which I think is the same blade just with different labeling/branding on the blade.

@Michael Zhuang Sanwei have just uploaded a video on their facebook answering your question. Basically the designer of the rubber said that the low throw angle is meant to give rubber a long arc, which should mount more pressure on opponent. Here's the video (it has subtitles):


Also @Andrea Jiang, I wanted to ask which Sanwei blade would be a suitable upgrade from Fextra one? I am using it for more than a year and it is a great blade with great feeling but I feel it is difficult to finish points with 3rd ball attack and loop kills close to the table, especially against more skilled opponents (not enough speed). Looping away from the table works quite well despite the speed because the spin produced is very good, and since I am tall I can produced very powerful loops. (as you said Fextra has very stable looping).
I would like a blade that is as stable in away from the table looping rallies but has slightly more punch in 3rd ball attacks. Thank you.

Just to clarify, you want a blade that has similar feel but more power?

Yes. Technically any brand will do, but imo Sanwei has good price-to-performance ratio for blades. Also there is an official distributor nearby lol.
Yes, you are right, Youtech Sport is very professional. And regarding your question, I'm asking our designer now, pls wait for me. ;)

Tbh, til they release an international version of the 75 Inner, I don't any Sanwei recommendations for you that will feel pretty similar with more power.

Hello, dear

Our designer told me, to your question there are two models.
If you still want an all-wood model, Parla will be your best choice. The ball-holding may be a little lower than Fextra One, but has slightly more punch.

And there is a carbon blade that focuses on the looping style named HC 3S.
The carbon fiber provides it good power, and the hinoki surface makes it easy to looping.

Interesting! Which of them has a similar feel to Viscaria? What happened to Sanwei 75 ALC? Is it still in production now?
It should be Froster.
The 75 blade, is not on our international product line.
You could buy our official product on our website or Top-spin, our exclusive distributor in the UK.

Thank you for your answer. I am curious, when will Parla be available in Pakistan?
HC 3S has caught my interest as well, I have never played with a hinoki carbon blade before.
