Hi Everyone,
Anyone who has played with this blade? It seems to be a nice controlled offensive non-composite, pure-wood blade with 6 ply construction by Tibhar. Weighs 85 gs.  I would like to have one but before making a final decision, I am interested in your previous experiences with it although it was released only a few months ago.

Thumbs Up
Yeah. The Carbon is the other possibility but I guess for me it would be too much of speed for the time being but some time later perhaps.
I can't wait to hear your opinion about it.

im also curious of the effect of having a 6 ply all wood blade. would be faster than a 5 ply but its 1 ply short of being a 7 ply

i thought there was a mistake when i saw 6 ply... i guess they exist. you should check out the Tibhar Stratus Powerwood as well, same construction as the BTY Petr Korbel and a little bit thicker.

Yes, you are right. I've done so. But SPW has got only 5 ply on the other hand Korbel has seven. It may be much faster, I suppose.

Sorry, Korbel is 5-ply allwood blade...   Korbel SK7 is 7-ply allwood blade.

Andro Kinetic ALL+ is 6-ply allwood blade.  It is around ALL+/OFF- speed range.

well, 6-ply likely means that they uses two plies of vertical grain wood as core. Due to the glue the blade will be a bit stiffer than a corresponding 5-ply blade with one core ply.

 There is also Texo Allround. The FL handles look superb on these blades. From the description the Texo OFF sounds similar to the Stratus Powerwood. Tibhar's own ratings state both blades are rated as OFF- but even though Texo is 6 ply and SPW 5 ply, suggest the SPW is faster:

Texo OFF  Speed 8 Control 8+

Quote Elegant and powerful off-blade with an outstanding control, it sticks out in an offensive game and in ball exchanges one likes to dictate himself; TEXO OFF is perfectly adapted to high speed and aggressive adversary strokes and topspins. It is a very fine blade for playing at mid-distance, while procuring high precision in your exchanges. TEXO OFF offers you a whole pallet of possibilities in the domain of service, counter and varied strokes above the table. TEXO OFF is also the variable weapon for the offensive playing system and offers the ideal balance between speed and sensation


Stratus Powerwood Speed 9 Control 7+

Quote This 5-ply offensive blade is characterized by an unlimited flexibility. From the hard flip to a finer topspin with lots of spin, you will be able to realise the whole pallet of stroke play for the offensive game with Stratus Powerwood
