Hi Lee91,
the following is the review for the LOKI blades and rubbers:
Loki blade looks like BTY Timo Boll ALC with high end finish and quality build.I fixed LOKI GTX pro black rubber(Forehand) and Eakent Rune + Red rubber(backhand) on both sides. Since both brands are new to me i was curious about how it plays.Had a thorough hit to check the blade and rubber.
1.COUNTER:
On slow counter the blade is high throw.
At higher speed counter is medium throw.
The blade is smooth consistent and error free.
2.TOPSPIN:
On controlled topspin,the ball is high arc landing on the edge of the table consistently
At higher speed the topspin increases viciously and the blade gripping the ball into a medium arc forcing the opponent to make mistake.
3.TOPSPIN BACKSPIN:
Easy to lift heavy underspin ball
Ability to hit winners(fast topspins) casually
Easy to hit hook topspin and insideout topspins both forehand and backhand
4.COUNTER TOPSPIN:
Easy to play counter topspins both close to the table and at mid distance
LOKI blade is especially good for this type of play
5.BLOCK:
Even hardcore smashes and topspins are easily blocked and surprising the opponent by placing the ball on the white line edges
6.SERVICE:
Spin services are very effective with good variations and heavyspin making opponent difficult to return because of LOKI blade and rubber combinations.
CONCLUSION:
This LOKI blade is very easy to play and very good for close to the table upto mid distance play.
Only available in chinese market.Costs 105$.one of the very best blade i have played with.
Very rare blade to acquire. if you are able to buy from China you are truly lucky. must buy highly recomended
