Just picked this blade up  ... vs Clipper variants, Korbel SK7, Fortius FT, HL3/PG7/506, Force Pro Black Edition Does the smoked limba differ from the normal limba in any way? How good is the quality/finish of TSP compared to the rest? Thanks in advance!

Doesn't the swat power have a carbon layer.that would make it different from these other blades ------------- http://www.bladesbycharlie.com/models/hinokighost" rel="nofollow - BBC Hinoki Ghost http://mytabletennis.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=74126&title=feedback-rocketman222" rel="nofollow - My Feedback |

Hello Rocketman! If I'm not wrong. The TSP Swat Power is a 7-ply wooden blade, sharing some similarities with a Clipper. It is a more powerful version compared to the normal TSP Swat. The Carbon composite one is the TSP Swat Carbon. But I do notice some websites and stores listing the TSP Swat Power as a 5 + 2 composite blade. I believe it is a typo/ mistake.

One of my favorite blades is the now-discontinued Andro Temper Tech OFF+ blade which has a tempered ('smoked') limba as an outer ply. Limba vs tempered limba is like night and day. The heating process renders the limba ply much harder and faster but, interestingly, still preserves the limba touch in short play. Frankly, I cannot fathom why more TT manufacturers aren't using this as an outer ply. ------------- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ThePongProfessor http://mytabletennis.net/forum/feedback-thepongprofessor_topic69419.html" rel="nofollow - Feedback |

I guess the TSP Swat Power could be an alternative? What about the Donic Burn series? Is that similar in any way or different outer ply wood? ------------- Zhang Jike ALC AN (88g) Tenergy 05 Hard (2.1, B) Tenergy 19 (2.1, R) https://goo.gl/bFWoxW" rel="nofollow - https://goo.gl/bFWoxW |

The TSP Swat Power sounds interesting, although the balsa for kiri substitution is likely to create a difference. The Joola Flame Extreme might be a closer analog. I think the Donic Burn is closer to the andro Temper Tech OFF-. ------------- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ThePongProfessor http://mytabletennis.net/forum/feedback-thepongprofessor_topic69419.html" rel="nofollow - Feedback |
