Review of Avalox Blue Thunder 550 (BT550)Awesome blade! The weight is key to everything. 78g, a full 10g lighter than most blades. Mine is penhold.
This may sound trivial, but the LIGHTER SWINGWEIGHT gives me a few more milliseconds of quickness, allowing me to reach and defend seemingly impossible cross-court shots.
They really have done a great job balancing out speed/control on this blade.
On the vibration issue -- I have 2 of these in penhold with zero vibration. A friend bought shakehand version and the vibration, or hollow sounding "bonginess" is very noticeable. Used Sterco rubber on both blades, so the rubber has nothing to do with it. Who knows why certain ones seem to vibrate, although it does not affect play at all. More of a personal thing.

Review of Donic Wosik Senso CarbonI also have the Chuan cpen which was renamed Wosik. But it got renamed again to Ovtcharov! Although it is 5W/2C, overall it has a woody feel. My cpen only weighs 79g.
Paired with T05/T05 you will find this blade has excellent control for short pushes, great chopping ability, and good power for mid distance shots. If you like to mix it up with short and long game, this is good choice.
