also you can use there configurator on line which itself is a good learning tool for how handle size and wood impact blade weight.  They have off the shelf models called the Roots series and also allow you to change them to suit your desire in the configurator , good idea to call them and discuss what you want they are very friendly and knowledgable. pricey...

My top 3 is:

- DHS Hurricane Hao: simply the best balance between speed and control, no vibration at all, great feedback on the contact.

- Nittaku Violin C: more control-oriented, good speed and superb quality control. Also the best handle among all cpen blades I´ve tried so far.

- BTY Mazunov: all-out power blade, no vibration and faster than most of carbon or 7-ply blades.

Most of 5 ply allwood around 6mm has some vibration, if it's weird is more personal. The thicker one are more stiff and powerfull, like Mazunov.

I would say:
- Hurricane King (used by Masataka Morizono)
- Stratus Powerwood
- Yasaka Extra Offensive

1) Darker 5P-2A (absolutely wonderful (to me) feel and balance)
2) Nexy Color (Really nice!)
3) Several fine choices, but I had a Stiga Energy about 10 years ago that I really liked.

My list does not change when the 5-ply wood restriction is removed.

This one is OFF+ and is too heavy with max tensors on FH and BH.

I don't like the balance on Tibhar stratus power wood, it has a large head and even with not so heavy rubbers the racket is always tilting towards the head.

If you ask me it would be the BT 555,excellent quality blade and superb feel etc, and even better it has a great straight handle.

Also Acoustic and Stiga Offensive classic

Depends on the hand and the rubber, obviously. Ever since my lover affair with Hexer began, the balance issues that I had with this blade mysteriously vanished.  And you can always sand the head down too..


My fave 5 ply all wood blades:

Yasaka Sweden Extra
Xiom Offensive S
Tibhar Stratus Powerwood  
Nexy PeterPan
OSP Virtuoso
I like putting heavy topspin on the ball...

The Mazunov I have is the heaviest blade I ever had (105g), but I always wondered how comes it is so well balanced. Excellent control/speed ratio and superb feeling.
Another wonder I play from time to time with is Yasaka Gatien Extra. Lovely blade. Too bad I have bought just one
