Hallmark Aurora

Its a great combination blade . FH: OFF- and BH: DEF+ . My BH long pips returns fall onto the table with good amount of spin reversal . At the same time, FH side is fast and helps in great loops . Very light 68g . Straight handle is good for twiddling . Must seal the blade as frequent changes may cause splinter . Slightly oversize than my previous blade Yinhe T11+ .

Astoundingly good blade for long pimps in Ox on the slow Def side which I've given a 4 for speed but if you drive with the pimps think 8! I'm using Joola Octopus. It can play every shot including hard attack and if your opponent hammers one at you just pops it back on the table with no effort! Amazing! Let the blade do the work for you! I have Tenergy 05fx on the Offensive side which again for speed would be 8. Match made in heaven! A real loop monster! This blade is so cheap it has to be worth a punt!

Good for defensive style. But the inner wood is very soft and is very easy to be distort. I put my fingernail softly on that wood layer and it just get damaged like that.

Have this model. Lovely balanced blade. I also own the hallmark combination blade, which I seem to prefer. The aurora is a little over sized, I think I prefer normal sized blades as I find sweet spot easy enough. However can see it being a very nice blade in the right hands. Plays well with pips/normal rev. As a def strategy maybe.

excellent blade I use long pips ox dawei d1 and short pips spinpips red max, better close to the table, speed 6 FH 3 BH
