Review of JOOLA Eagle FastThis was my first move into using balsa. I did so thinking it would help me power up more and have more venom in my shots.
The reality is, it did just that. With this bat, I've blown some players off the table and my power went up drastically.
But with that, I lost a lot of the core elements of my game. I went from having a good touch game and strong blocking to losing all of that. Touch, in particular, completely went, everything was very long, the ball doesn't stay low. Even the most delicate of touches would end up being long enough for the other player to get in off. I've had to completely change my game.
Blocking is hard too. There's not a lot of dwell time and it's very springy. My blocks always end up going long, even though it doesn't feel like they should do.
In terms of spin, fantastic. Especially with serves.
Regarding looping, if you strike the ball well, the ball with absolutely fly, but there's not much room for error, I've found the sweet spot to be small.
Overall, I think for the right player, it would be a fantastic blade. If an offensive player was looking for something with a bit more spark, then I would recommend. But for players who base their game on control and placement, don't be tempted into moving down this road to boost your power, it's probably not for you.
