The Tibhar Defense Plus remains light despite having a larger racket head.

This blade also provides great feeling and can have enough speed close to the table for surprise attacks.

Good control.
16/11/2021 A lot of control for defensive play with attack possiblities Review by Steve
Quality
The blade is initially slow but has a lot of flex so a lot of speed/spin can be produced from this flex. Great control and light- around 70 grams because of balsa layers.

03/11/2020 I'm playing 10 years with this blade Review by Vladimir Radojicic
Quality
Unique blade, I tried many def, all and off blades but I have never changed this blade for almost 11 years now. I am using banned Dr. Neubauer Super Block and Scalpel with a sponge on my backhand to block and attack with long pips on the table. You can really feel the contact of the ball and the blade, and it is so slow on passive blocking that you can always put the ball short. And if you want to block the ball long you will have to push forward with the blade. If you step away from the table to chop you will have trouble clearing the net since the blade is really slow. On the table, you can attack loose balls since balsa middle layers kick in and give the blade decent power on offensive shots, so it is like the blade itself has two gears. Again, away from the table blade clearly does not have enough power. The only slower blade that I tried was Dr. Neubauer Barricade but it was too slow to finish the point with the forehand. All other blades were bouncier so it was harder to keep the blocks with lp short and controlled.

Good control for Def.
27/09/2018 Light weight good quality easy to chop with, kind of slow Review by Andre Young
Quality
It's a little slow. It's kind of expected being a defensive paddle, but if you want to be aggressive and go offensive, this blade will definitely let you do that. Very good price, good quality, very light weight, good feeling when I h it the ball with this paddle. Highly suggest if your thing is your chopper and you just want to test out the defensive side of the game.

An average def blade. Good for beginner to try on long pimple.
16/04/2018 Excellent for hardbat Review by Conrad
Quality
I'm using this as a hardbat blade. It is not oversize like COS-3. Very good control chop-blocking.

Didn't regret to buy this wood, very light, allows mistakes ....
13/04/2017 Good but fragile Review by simon narramore
Quality
This blade is as light as a feather. Unlike other balsa blades I've tried the balsa is on the outside not in the core. This helps it dampen down opponents shots but also makes it feel a bit flimsy. It worked brilliantly with DHS H3 Neo and TSP Super Spinpips Chop 2,1.5mm however after 15 minute the ball was uncontrollable. I soon found out the problem. The balsa had snapped either side of the handle. The central hardwood core was ok so for now I've glued it back together but durability is a concern with this blade. Up until then it had worked very well with these rubbers
