STIGA Cybershape Wood CWT Review 

Think other brands should adapt the logic.

@@tabletennisaddict2221 Same !!

It’s not available outside of continental Europe

I'd rather pick a heavier or lighter blade in the shop. The weight in the bottom will also not change the speed of the blade itself. Maybe you'll have a bit less vibration with a heavier weight and you could bring the balance point closer to the handle. That might be good for defending, but since this is an offensive blade, I think it's kinda pointless.

Good idea, reminds me of golf club weight systems for drawing and fading. Not sure I'd want to add 9g to the overall weight of my set up on the other hand. Ideally it would be better to have a system of shifting the balance from head to handle without changing the overall weight in a sliding weight method, similar to golf clubs, possibly some kind of weight distribution inside the handle. I have been using cybershape carbon for 2 month and I don't think I will ever go back to an oval shaped blade again.

LKT9010 is just a random example

I agree. I have been using the Timo Boll ALC for the last two years and have been trying out the Cybershape. Feels too top heavy/just heavier in general for me. Wanted to try it out but I’ll be going back to my Timo Boll.

It’s supposed to be too heavy. Having more weight at the top allows the player to put more force into the ball when hitting it near the tip of the blade. With a very top heavy blade a player can do some insane spin off the serve when hitting near the top.

Looks like the DNA in the close up shots but sadly they dont say which hardness they used.

Hi Daniel, it will only work on the CWT versions of the Cybershape blades. Did you try this? TTD15

@@TableTennisDaily Oh, I missed it was for the CWT version (I tried the regular Wood one) Thanks for the info :)

@@danielcollin4012 Pleasure Dan!

thinking the same. this blade with hard rubber should be good. medium for more spin in loops

That's also what I was wondering. I'm only at advanced level, having played for 5 years now in a team. I still have an all wood All+ blade and would like to have something faster. I play with a lot of spin, try to loop early and surprise with serves. Don't need the fastest blade, but still some control. I was reading lately, that therefor wood is good with longer dwell time, because the ball digs deeper into the blade and get more spin. Maybe an inner layer of carbon for more speed. Outer carbon apparently removes some spin, but gives more speed.

@@leonawroth2516 I've recently switched to the Mima Ito Nittaku carbon blade and it's great for spin and speed, with enough control. The normal wood Acoustic is also amazing. Worth a try!

I know. Only idiots buy them. They will say a £350 blade is great! Lol

At least it’s not obvious sellout for overpriced butterfly blades. I wish there were channels who’d review more Chinese blades

@@masterflamewing234 they always say the blades they review are good for attackers.

@@masterflamewing234 any recommendations?

I have CWT and it really changed my game.

Speed comes from technique. You could play 2nd Bundesliga level with a Stiga Allround classic or a Grubba All+, much slower blades than this. 95% of players will not benefit from a blade faster than this. The truth is most of the carbon blades sold to amateurs are making them worse players. The carbon/composite blade market should be tiny, reserved only for those top echelon of players and a number of niche hitting styles, but people like to play what pros use and are generally deluded about their abilities.

Thanks for the lesson! 😅👍

@@tommaynard8101 Not trying to be an arse to you. It's just a little pet peeve of mine, which I am still trying to eliminate from my own speech. Words have meanings and the better we use them the better our communication will be. It seems that the smart phone age has caused the English language to deteriorate drastically. Words are being used incorrectly on purpose too often (a lot of the time the words are being used to actually mean the opposite of themselves) and it's causing everyone to struggle to communicate with each other effectively, just like what occurs in 1984 by George Orwell. Just ask yourself this: What is a 'vaccine' and why is that word being used erroneously so much? Would that be because that word implies an effectiveness and the thing that it's being wrongly used to describe doesn't actually live up to anything close to that sort of effectiveness? Would it make the most money, if this thing was implied to be effective versus experimental? Hmm... Here's another fantastic set of examples: 'diversity' and 'inclusion'. When those words are being used, the exact opposite is actually happening. And generally, what they mean is "the exclusion of Caucasians". This is why the proper usage of words has become such an important crusade these days. Don't take it personally though, mate.
