Stiga Clipper Cybershape

The new cybershape ac and cl wood are both a version of the original which are widely used. I bought both Cybershape wood and clipper because both were €170. Ive been using Cybershape clipper for a month, and I'm still not used to the blade. Especially backhand gave me some initial trouble. The handle is thin and small, but not too small for my regular sided hands. The arc is lower then CL wood, also it is harder. The blade speed is off, when looping it is similar to innerforce layer alc. The soft outer layer gives a lot of spin, while the blade isn't flexible and actually quite stiff, it still provides good spin. Blocking is very stable, you have to move forwards a bit more to give it more speed. Chopblock is very spinny and easy to do. I feel i have to use a lot more technique, which is good for my development. I am 1650 dutch rating. My recommendation is to buy the cybershape clipper version insted of wood. Wood costs more and is 20% slower. Hybrid rubbers on forhand and hard/medium tensor on backhand work for me best.

The cybershape shape plays every bit like the classic clipper wood. The new shape adds a little dimension to experiment with. So cybershape clipper provides a little extra stability and control, also slight more power on the plus side. Flex is still good as original if not better , very easy to generate crazy spin as you would expect from clipper wood. Only minus is its slightly head heavy but you kind of forget during play because it not too head heavy, infact for those who used stiga blades its actually feel like wrb (hollow handle) version without the handle actually being hollow on the cybershape. Overall excellent blade with engineered shape that really makes that little difference in your shot and i found it quite noticeable when testing with regular shape clipper wood , i really like both shapes and i think they have their plus and minus. But still great.
