Nexy Joo Se Hyuk: first impression review

Testing blade Nexy JSH fl 81g with exactly same rubber setup

Nexy promotion video with JSH claimed this blade was made for better offensive ability. Its a 7 plies. 

Thin outercore, thick 2nd layer and thin 3 pliescore. The handle is difference from previous nexy production but resemble Chinese made blade.Slim and thin. Im quite sure its come from Chinese factory with great qc and furnish.

First hand on warm up rally. Its quite different from various def blade in the market eg. famous victas or bty JSH lines. Its lack of classic wobbler and dullness we usually find in def blades(not thin and flexy). It is even thicker than 309. I rated it All not Def. It produces good feedback. Its quite soft outer and harder second core rather than hard outer and soft core like some def blade(from my PoV). Its not crazily head heavy. 

Looping and drive : Good catch up feeling and really solid, high spin rotation and landing was deep. It was not dull at all and quite resilient. It could be on par with off- blade like primorac classic, violin. Quite faster than classic chop blades. A little slower than BTY JSH. More spring than 309 but overall speed is quite the same but I need more effort with 309 with that speed.

Short game with pips : controllable, pips effect still there. I cannot provide how it plays with ox pip with less friction because I purposely made this set up for all round push and chopping game and it suits the purpose. 

Pip attack : nothing to review, its practically on average of what LP can do which is the annoying flat ball.

Chopping : on par with famous chopping blades, it provide good feedback and a control that can generate and manipulate spin. Practice partner said the trajectory usually low when i meant to be low. It somehow lack of power when emergency chop was need to be engaged at the crucial moment, i had to add more power to emergency short stroke chop to make it happen. 

Conclusion

Nexy usually position itself on a niche market, but became more popular during past years.

JSH blade is going to be popular soon among defenders. It provides adequate control, speed and power for both defensive and without a drawback in attack compartment. It also provide a lot of positive vibration feedback as Nexy blade usually do. Coming from 309, there is no major adjustment in technique and im going to stick with JSH for a while.

This blade is for chopper who need more versatility on attacking and more maneuverbility.

Which blade is more faster, VMKO or Nexy JSH? And Nexy JSH or Butterfly Defence pro?
