23/05/2023 lightweight and rigid Review by Marcos Guglielmetti

Quality

It is very light, I bought it to use in case of wrist or hand injuries and it fulfills its objective, it does not lack power if we hit hard, although logically it does not gain the inertia of a normal paddle. I recommend gluing rubbers that give good spin, otherwise it's hard to spin the ball because the wood doesn't flex well, so all the spin has to come from the rubber. Hard non-sticky rubbers are not very useful, they should be very sticky or softer rubbers.

16/03/2023 Extremely lightweight blade Review by Marcos Guglielmetti

Quality

Extremely lightweight blade, ours weighs 58g, has a good bounce, and is not slow. At one point, the ball bounces surprisingly faster without apparently doing anything for it.

03/03/2023 Fantastic blade Review by Luis Hong

Quality

This blade is highly specific for people that are looking for very light paddles. Amazing control due to its very large sweet spot. Good speed and spin. Just be careful handling it when removing and replacing the rubbers. The surface tends to come off if not careful. I've tried many balsas and this one is the absolute best. I recommended it to several people (women) and they are really pleased with it.

So many choices and variety.

25/06/2019 Good control with good speed Review by hally

Quality

On the first few strokes, I didn't get the impression that it's a fast blade but don't let that fool you. The speed comes out when strength is applied on more aggressive strokes. Blocks like a dream even with euro mid hard tensor rubber. Short play is very acceptable too. To top it off, the weight is so light, only 64g, less stress & pain for the wrist. Thumbs up!

Quality

I do not use pips out rubbers but use a chop style in some rallys. Perhaps a pips out rubber makes all the difference?

26/03/2019 Possibly the best of Balsa Review by Enkay

Quality

Light, rigid, offensive blade (mine was just 59g). Great feel with no unwelcome vibration, but offering outstanding feedback (thanks to end-grain balsa with NO carbon). The most stable and consistent balsa I have yet played with; also a blade with a surprisingly large sweet spot. Very dependable for consistent smashing and looping (complimented particularly well by "slower" Chinese rubbers or "faster" Euro rubbers with softer sponges). A perfect blade for anyone using "funny rubber" on one side, and super easy to twiddle. TSP has pulled off an almost impossible feat: creating a feather weight blade with power, stability, consistency, and outstanding feel.

19/12/2018 Weapon Review by SPIROS ANDREAS KOUSTAS

Quality

An excellent product from TSP. Lightweight and powerful. Although, you can feel every stroke you make and the control is beyond average (depends on the rubbers). I have combined it with Chinese rubbers like Friendship LKT Rapid Speed, Nittaku Hurricane Turbo or 3-60 Soft or TSP Ventus Spin and it pulled out all the best characteristics of the rubbers!! You want a fast game, but still controllable, put also with hard rubbers and it's a weapon .... You are not so good in technique and you want something forgiving so you can improve your skills? Then use softer rubbers and the blade will help you to improve!!

14/12/2018 Really bouncy. blocker and lobber blade Review by Zane Cundiff

Quality

Good for blocking and active placement. Good spin when knowing how to handle the rebound effect. Interesting and very speedy initially and later very dense once in contact of hard and spinny ball.

09/10/2018 Great value Review by Dean Tasker

Quality

Light and fast blade but with excellent control. However, very easy to damage due to softness of the balsa.

30/04/2018 Excellent with soft rubbers and if you use a lot of wrist on your backhand Review by Keo

Quality

Tried it with different rubber combinations from hard Chinese rubbers to very soft rubbers. In conclusion; 1) Works extremely well with very soft rubbers like Xiom Vega Elite and Stiga Calibra Tour S. I settled on the Calibra for BH and Xiom Vega Elite on Fh. 2) Works very well in short and mid distance play. Blocks are good and so are over the table counter-loops.

23/03/2018 The lightest blade. Review by Nasrizan Jajuri

Quality

My blade is only 57 gram. This is the lightest blade I have ever tried. Fast, flex, light. Very good for looping. Yes, it is balsa.

20/03/2018 Good Blade Review by R&M

Quality

Hi All,

I have used this blade now for almost 3 months with RAKZA 9 MAX thickness for FH and DHS HURRICANE NEO 3 MAX thickness on BH. Very light blade it is. What a control it has got i would say 10/10. Flicks are very effective as it is very light blade. Close/Mid/Far from the table it does magic. Really love this Blade. Not much satisfied with the Shipping though, But TT11 later reordered this and delivered it (happy on this part about TT11.com).

09/04/2017 I love this blade Review by Brett Hansen

Quality

This is one of the best blades for the money. Good control and good speed with a huge sweet spot. I also have a Treiber K. The TSP has good control like the treiber but the tsp is faster and less expensive. I highly recommend this blade for the price.

основание для мягких и легких накладок, с тяжелыми теряет скорость, лучше бить ,чем вращать

28/11/2016 Fantastic Review by Elias Oziolor

Quality

Super light weight, well balanced and super speedy. Extremely happy with purchase. Got the anatomical handle and it definitely feels different, but it has helped me switch from backhand to forehand more easily (could depend on player). This wood is a great purchase for both attackers and all around players.

26/11/2016 Lacks power Review by Pedro Einloft

Quality

Lacks power for a 7 ply blade. I guess Balsa does not fit my playstyle.

10/11/2016 Light blade. Quite good. Review by Parkash Rawat

Quality

Extremely light blade. Awesome for playing close to the table. Though, far from the table doesn't have much power. This could due to my combination of hard rubber (Neo 3) on it.

16/09/2016 Good Product Review by Elgar Agustin Camposagrado

Quality

Very light and well made. Very fast in flat hitting but not spinny in looping, good at blocking and close the table. Soft-Medium rubbers are recommended.

26/07/2016 BB 7.0 Review by Richard Kráľ

Quality

remarkable blade, good quality, consistent control, fast enough, not the fastest though, I glued LKT Rapid Speed for BH and DHS Hurricane 3 for FH and I quite like this combo, now its controlled attack machine. recommending to anybody, who did not play balsa before.

16/05/2016 Good Control and Spin Review by Afnan Aslam

Quality

F: Tibhar 1Q, B: GKI Hybrid
The wood is very light and has a good combination of control and spin, though I feel the speed will increase as you will play more. It is helping me to block better than before.. Its my 3rd week of playing and am feeling the increase in speed from the first week.
Topspin are not lightning fast as other carbon blades but its gives you a moderate speed and heavy spin due to its thick balsa wood and I fee that's enough if you are hitting within the match.

Over all after playing for 3 weeks I am feeling quite comfortable playing close to the table but yes playing away from the table with shots like top spin on top spins requires some effort, but I must say feels worth the cost I have paid for it.
Hope the quality is maintained and lasts for at least a year.
Thanks for reading
