BLOODHOUND is an interesting alternative for many long pimple or Anti-Spin players seeking a relatively slow blade. It comes with carefully selected plywood material including Spruce, Ayous and also carbon layers ensuring high efficacy when used with this type of rubbers. Both the spin reversal obtained while blocking with frictionless Anti-Spin rubbers and the wobbly ball produced by long pimples set a new benchmark: The speed of the ball can be reduced considerably thus ensuring maximum effectiveness with this type of rubbers. BLOODHOUND is an ALL- blade that does not consist of balsa yet offers excellent control. The blade is well balanced so that all types of attacking techniques can be produced with inverted rubbers or offensive pimple-out rubbers on the other side. Finally BLOODHOUND is also a good choice for a modern defensive game that is not only based on chopping but also on attacking shots.
Great control is much appreciated. Wide scale of speed provided, depending on rubber and sponge thickness. Saviga Monster 77 LPs (OX) offer EXCEPTIONAL backspin on chops, which are easy to keep low. Light grip on LPs attacks surprisingly effective. Softer sponge inverted Rozena-type rubbers provide great spin and plenty of speed. Far different feeling than Dr. Neubauer “Combination”, which provides far less touch. Balsa core isn’t too thick, so adjustment from other blades is a breeze. Nice quality, for the price. I sealed mine lightly, just in case… Blade highly recommended for LPs players by this old pong addict.
Bloodhound is a very well behaved carbon blade. Great for pips players who use pips for BH and inverted on FH. With Bloodhound you get a good vibration when hitting the ball unlike other carbon blades that feel like your playing with grandma's wig. FL handle feels superb not to thin or thick. With thicker rubbers can feel a tic on the heavy side but the balance of Bloodhound is a good feeling. A great allround carbon blade with good feeling with many gears. Good touch for short game and ample power for smashes and powerful loops close and mid distance. Rated ALL- or ALL+ depends on the reviewer. I rate it as a solid ALL++. Choose your playing comfort with thin or thick rubbers with Bloodhound and you too can go howling into history.
I use this blade for modern defense with Tsp P4 0.6 sponge with attacking inverted on forehand max thickness. Blade feels soft even with the carbon. Reversal and chopping are nice and attacks are strong and the the stiffness allows for great control of blocks. I have many defensive blades but this is my go to. I reccomend especially for pips with sponge.
Very good blade, using with ABS2 2.1mm on BH side and Victas VO102 SP 1.8 mm on the FH. Blocks are very short and deceptive, control is wondeful. There is also enough speed for attacking.
