This is a medium fast controlled attack style blade.

This is a 5-ply blade (2 carbon, 3 wood), giving the blade a nice solid feel but still with some flex for touch shots.

The high grade carbon layers provide a huge sweetspot. This blade offer good power at all distances while

maintaining good control and feel. Although it rated allround, it feels faster than this.

I've been building a lot of bats lately, each to suit the person. This Y4 was to be a fairly offensive upgrade for an older person who had played very casually for many years, but had zero technique. It turned out to be perfect. The Y4 has the dwell time to be effective, and seemed to provide quite pleasant feedback. I don't know why exactly, but the handle was quite comfortable. I find most Yinhe flared handles are nice, but this was especially so. This behaved like an ALL+ version of the T8s, though, the T8S has much nicer, smoother feedback. It's a really solid choice and I'm surprised more people aren't using this. B2P Soft 37 backhand, B2P 38, forehand.

Quality inexpensive blade. Very good control. Pretty strong vibration in the handle when flat hitting. It's not for everybody. Simple and easy Topspin. Soft rubbers are not well suited to this blade. The ball too long in contact with the racket and the game becomes slower. Topspin is covered by a high trajectory. I recommend rubber medium hardness. With them, the game becomes more powerful without losing control. You should bear in mind that the handle is less than the standard for the circumference. Therefore, the blade you won't like it if you have big hands :) Perfect blade for ALLround players and beginners for practicing techniques of topspins. (Sorry for the English. Autotranslation).

Great blade. Acceptable speed and good control. On topspins and smashes appears some vibrations what is good for controling your beat. Blade head little bit heavy compared to others blades, but this maybe because of heavy rubbers. Seems that works great with soft to medium rubbers. On hits appears solid click sound.

excellent blade, excellent for allraound players.. a hard rubber for blocking and a softer one for topping is the best choise
