Hi Everyone, I have just bought this wonderful used blade as a bargain, just out of curiousity and following an advanced player's advice to have a try. As far as I know , it got out of prduction few years ago. It cannot be purchased as a new one anymore. I put M1 amd M3 on it and I must tell you everything works well.  It is mainly the huge control that I am mostly surprised at. Anyway, it is obviously not a speed deamon but decent spin, flips and chops can be performed. So little information can be gathered on web so I am really curious to become more acquainted with it, have some more info about it. So please help me and share your knowledge or thoughts about the blade. Which modern up-to-date blade has much in common with Legend by Joola blade? I mean , which blade has nearly the same playing characteristic , 5 ply all wood construction and so on. Which modern blade can be used as its substitute. ------------- igszoctan Fh: Rasant PowerGrip (2.1) Blades: Appelgren Allplay Bh: Rasant Powersponge(1.9) Feedback: http://mytabletennis.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=66928&PID=807706 Strength and honour |

looks like a fat Korbel. Limba on the outside for sure. ------------- puppy412 : Sorry man, I don't mean to sound disrespectful, but I know that more training will make me better, I don't need to come here to figure that out |

I would want to know similar blades as well, if only for the fact that no matter how great it is, I could never bring myself to play with such a hideous blade I'm glad you like it though! EDIT: Better you than me. EDIT: Way to take one for the team! |

| This blade is looking like the construction of the old Stiga blades. |

| Yes, it does seem the same first and second ply. Limba-limba-ayous like the old Stigas. No wonder its a good blade, it must be thin to be all+ |

It may be an ugly dog but who cares, all that matters is how it feels and how well it works for your game. Some ALL+ blades almost play like OFF-, rubber selection is a big factor. ------------- Wood Paddle Red side Black side. |

its not that ugly, it just looks old. Its kinda cool actually. If Joola just put this on the market, then yes, ugly. But knowing it's old, no, it's cool. ------------- puppy412 : Sorry man, I don't mean to sound disrespectful, but I know that more training will make me better, I don't need to come here to figure that out |

Yeah, that's excatly that I was informed about. The feeling is quite close to the antique Johanson blade. Anyway , are there any 'old and ugly'  Stiga or Joola funs around here who can confirm that brave statement ?At the same time , I am really intrested to know which "up-to-date blade" of any brand might have the same construction or feel.  ------------- igszoctan Fh: Rasant PowerGrip (2.1) Blades: Appelgren Allplay Bh: Rasant Powersponge(1.9) Feedback: http://mytabletennis.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=66928&PID=807706 Strength and honour |
