This blade is very light! And has a great potential with tensor rubbers, I really didn't like it with the Hurricane 8 I bought because they are both very hard equipments and it makes the racket slow and doesn't give the ball a lot of spin, so I tried Rakza 7 and Xiom Omega 4 Euro and it worked really well! Fast blade, fast response, doesn't have sucha great feeling as you normaly have with all wood blades but you can always tell where and how hard the ball hit your paddle, very good for offensive plays and blocking, choping may go long with no good touch and open ups need a very good technique if you want the ball to hit the table, most of times in the end of it, but attacking is definetly the purpose of this wood

This has to be the most flexible carbon blade ever. Said to be lower quality version of Hurricane King III.
If you prefer very flexible blades like Offensive Classic yet you want more speed without losing too much flex, this would be your choice. Suitable for mid distance looping, but not good for close to the table play.
Power looper's blade, suitable for very fast loops from mid distance with hard chinese rubbers.
Blocking, smashing and serving are the weakness of this blade.

It definitely hits well. Does all things pretty well imo. Have two with Tinarc 5 Soft on both sides.
Best thing is the weight, mostly over 90 grams ;)

This blade very fast, and good control, for chop and drive still ok, this blade upgrade my level when playing table tennis, incredible equipment for FH Hurricane 3 2.2mm and BH Donic Desto F1 2.0mm, "Cool Banget ini Blade" that I say it.
It's a composite blade from budget Power-G DHS series. Comparing it with Friendship/729 V-6 which has similar ply structure, I was not so impressed with PG-12. Somehow, the blade was not so good balanced, more in heavy range (above 90 g), not so good for flat hitting and not so great for looping like pure wood blades. It's thinner than V-6, carbon layer is different than V-6 (it's a glass fiber-carbon rather than aramid-carbon in V-6) and a top layer is different (brown colored, but I am not sure if it is dark colored Koto or Limba?). The most annoying fact for me was very thin FL handle which does not fit me. I'm more fan of DHS ST handles like the one you can find on DHS PG7. This is one of the best ST handles for me, and the one I'm using on my PG7, it's beautiful to handle! Unfortunately PG12 is coming only with FL (and Chinese penhold) handle. All in all I like more DHS pure wood blades like PG7 and Friendship V-6 is still for me the best composite Chinese blade for looping. If you look at the latest "upper-class" DHS composite blades like Hurricane Long V, with which Ma Long and Fang Bo are playing , the ply structure is pretty much similar to Friendship/729 V-6.
Excellent control for blocking, punching, pushes, and good soft touch. I get great dwell & power at same time. Easy to play with. Flared handle may be too skinny for some.
