[JikeChampion]

Hello i dont know what blade will I buy. I need information about Power - 7 (off+) Someone play with it? I will have H3 NEO for FH and Yasaka Mark V HPS for backhand. What blade could suits me better for Yasaka Mark V HPS, Power 7 or Petr Korbel (Off) ?


Thanks

Hi blades are very personal and play differently with different rubbers. That being said the Butterfly Power 7 is my favourite blade made up of koto, Ayous,Ayous,Ayous,Ayous,Ayous,Koto 5.7mm thick it has great feel a bit vibration and a bit of flex. It is recommended for close to table but the added flex makes great for looping mid table. If you have good hand control you will love the liveliness of it, but if you struggle with consistency it may take a bit of time to get use to. Don't be put off with the speed, with the new ball, my shots are quite slow compared to the TBS. Blocking is lovely with the feel and good dwell on loops. However counter hitting is a challenge due to the flex. This Blade is available from OOak Table Tennis shop and only available in a flared handle. Hope this helps.

I have played with the Power-7 for a while and I agree with Aaron.

As for choosing it over the Korbel, I would say yes, but maybe because I never got to grips with Korbel. I have seen many players play so well with it, but everytime I touch one I hate it

You might want to take a look at the avalox p700, which gives even better feedback than the Power-7 I think ...
