This defensive blade has only a slightly enlarged face (162 x 155 mm), but is still very slow. With only 3 veneers made of soft Ayous, this blade can offer very strong damping in passive play. The total thickness of the wood is approx. 4.2 mm. So that the wood is not too elastic and does not break too easily, a special gluing technique was chosen that makes the wood both harder and more stable. Please note, however, that this wood is still one of the more sensitive woods. But it is extremely light with a weight of approx. 72 g!

We recommend this blade to classic defensive players who, for example, play a mixture of backspin defense and short block balls with long pimples. Your own attacks are possible, albeit with clear cutbacks compared to other woods. In combination with long knobs, the Lion Defense offers a very good reversal of the cut. The handles are normal. Incidentally, this wood was developed by us, so we can particularly recommend it.
