Vladimir Samsonov did a lot of testing when he put together this wood combination with a newly designed blade shape and the new contact grip system to produce a perfectly balanced, slighty swinging attacking blade. This blade gives the feeling of absolute control and speed needed for the successful attacking game.

Nicely manufactured. Smooth handle. Fast enough for short play. Great for over the table play. Nice touch and sound. Looping is nice, especially from 3-5 feet from the table. Suitable for medium to med hard rubbers.

Good blade for starters. Light weight, small handle. I would recommend using Sriver kind rubbers. But once you realize your palying style (allround/off) and you start to improve your game you'd probably notice lack of power so you'd have to change to faster rubbers or better go for a faster blade.
I personally would go for chinese blades like Yinhe, LKT or Dawei. For the half of price you'd get similar results.

Very good blade for beginners to intermediate players. I would say that it is even better than Samsonov Alpha. FL and ST handles are thin but AN is very comfy and bulky.
It plays well for allround offensive style. Short game, flip, serve, etc. are good. Looping is very good. Blocking and smashing are alright.
I would say that it is about the same speed or just a bit faster than OC and Primorac. The handle has balsa inserted in the center, thus muted the vibration quite well.
