STIGA TUBE ALUMINIUM WRB

any comment on this blade?

the wood is good, the technology (grinding up bits of aluminum and putting them in glue to fill "micro channels") is bunk.

in short it's just wood with more glue resin than normal. glue resin is what adds the stiffness and speed.

there are better blades.

this is a nice blade.i still have it,but don't play with.i think it is nice offensive blade,stiff,yet sensitive.it might be better if stiga didn't use a hollow handle design.pairs nicely with japanese rubbers.it has more of a woody feel,but with no vibrations.weight is around 86-88 gr.i think if you aren't into fashion(butterfly lovers),this is a nice economical option.

i am deeply sorry,if my comment offended those lovers:)..let there be peace

the aluminum foil,i think is used.it does nothing,except that channels that are drilled in the middle veneer,are then filled with it,and that makes the blade lighter,yet stiffer.the blade would have been again over 92-25 gr,if it had contained a solid middle veneer.the stiga alum is pretty good,with a nicer feel than a clipper (an example of stiga's all wood blade with no perforations in the head portion of the racket)

stiga tube aluminum is better. the sound is good, the control is there despite being fast and its a good attacking blade

thanks all for your comment.. tube aluminium is sound good.. 1 questions, compare with stiga tube carbo wrb, which one is good? sorry for the same question.. i'm confused about these blade

Question after question after question....Decision, decision & decision....

slower, softer than TBS.

i find donic blades good and the black devil is my favorite

i want to buy tube aluminium and play with it.. is this blade has st handle?

Ever played with Carbo 7.6 or Carbo Oversize? if yes, can you compare?

Carbo 7.6 (and Oversize) have 6 (!) layers of very thin soft carbon(between 7 layers of wood) - so if it weren't for WRB it would be quite a vibrating blade. As it is, it's very playable and fast/stiff, but surprised me with a very decent amount of control for such a heavy and fast blade.

Haven't seen anyone though selling it here (Carbo Oversize, I mean) - must be not too popular...
