Stiga Offensive Wood NCT

Pala de Xu xin hace años atras, despues de probar muchas maderas la Offensive Wood NCT combina perfectamente con h3 neo y tg2 neo. Mejor que dhs pg7, galaxy n-9, galaxy T-11 y Andro Super Core Cell OFF. debido a su flexibilidad, ligereza y su tiempo de permanencia. Para jugadores que no sean muy rapidos puede ser un poco lenta. Se astilla con facilidad. Para mi la mejor con diferencia con cauchos dhs. Saludos Edito:2024 despues de probar muchas maderas mas (apolonia, innerforce alc, viscaria, tomakazu alc, he vuelto a esta maravilla de stiga. tengo 4, una con mango st 78 gr. que no me gustó mucho por mal agarre y no muy consistente, las otras 3 fl con distintos pesos 85, 82 y 79gr. Todas juegan muy pero que muy bien con fh d80 max bh t05 fx max pero tienen diferencias notables en el tamaño del mango. Mas peso igual a mas velocidad, menos vibraciones y menos control. Para mi tiene un equilibrio de control velocidad fuera de serie.

I love this blade. I came from a Yinhe Earth 3 VB who has the same wood composition Limba-Spruce-Ayous. I was playing that setup for nearly a year and now changed to this blade. Still the same rubbers FH: DHS TG3 and BH: Yinhe mercury 2 medium. I feel this blade is a natural upgrade to something beginner get recommended like Primorac, Samsonov Alpha (everything avergage speed and lots of control and flex) not too fast not to stiff and not to hard but something in between. I play penhold and this blade is so much fun generating spin or spin+speed. It feels like an extended arm and my RPB is showing huge improvements already. A great blade for an advanced beginner/intermediate player maybe for higher levels a bit more speed is needed. If you need something faster get an Intensity or Yasaka MA Lin Extra Offensvie.

The tagline "Designed for a technical and fast game with full control" is exactly what I think of this blade. It's an excellent versatile offensive blade, with good touch and control, but still enough power when you need it. It's really suited to a versatile offensive play, with spin and speed variations and a close-to-the-table play (it would lack power to regularly play an offensive game far from the table). I've never managed to use the Stiga OC, but this Offensive Wood NCT feels different, it's much more "stable" and predictable, stiffer and softer. It's limba outer ply, so the feeling is soft enough and works well for topspin play. I find it average in many aspects (average speed, say OFF–, average stiffness, average hardness)... and that's actually what makes it really good for me. I've paired it with Genesis M or H3 Neo on forehand and Rakza X Soft on backhand, and I got plenty of speed and control.

Very interesting blade. When I was using soft rubbers i had isues with looping, hitting and block. Few days ago I glued Chinese mid hard DHS Huricane 8 on FH and Hallmark Panther BH (also hard sponge - before Clippa ) and miracle has come. Blade showed a new face. With hard sponge rubbers works excelent. Fast, nice controll, perfect hitd and loops.

I do not understand the average weight of 80 g, mine weighs 92gm, something flexible, big sweet spot, more control than speed, thin handle a little uncomfortable, works very well with hard rubber, very bad with soft rubber, a lot of spin in services , excellent loop, average in block and under spin, with Chinese rubber forehand h3 is perfect, generally good blade.
