I have only had a chance to play with it once. Granted it was for 4 hours so I am somewhat familiar but also still a stranger to the blade.
The one thing that shocked me the most was the blade’s power reserves: it felt like once you got the blade to crack there was still another 20-30% power that you have yet to unlock. I did figure that to unlock this power you need to squeeze on impact- something that I usually don’t do, because all the others blade I have played with did not need this mechanic to get the full flex.
it has that unique stiga feeling… it can hold the ball well, a nice sort of clickiness as well as tremendous feeling for the ball.
I have never had a blade where I could feel the ball with such clarity.
The vibration feeling…is infinitely better than YEO, but it’s not as good as carbon.
i found that the increase in spin this blade offered allowed for a lot of my shots to go in even if I though they were out.
Passive blocks lack a bit of pace on the ball and you need to give it some force behind it. It allowed my opponent to gain an advantage and change the pace direction of the rally. This is probably one the few downsides I have experienced h37.
I found a lot success on bh open ups and flicks from both fh and bh. I also received a lot of compliments for the amount of spin I was able to put on the ball.
one thing that I struggled to do was my bh openup to fh pivot.
A lot of my 5th ball fh attacks went long, but I think I just need to understand the blade more.
More to come!
