Loki W81 Wei Shihao ZC

Zylon Carbon outer-fiber blade; fast responsive strike, strong power reserve.

This blade is part of the Loki W81 range, built with Zylon Carbon PBO. As an outer-ply carbon layer (positioned nearer the hitting surface), it generally sharpens the initial contact for a harder, more direct hit.

Best suited to competitive players with fast, well-timed strokes who can control the extra speed and spin on offer, especially if you play an attacking, offensive game built around generating your own power.

As a guideline, pair a blade like this with rubbers matched to your own speed and spin preference: firmer, faster rubbers add pace for players who already generate power, while softer rubbers add control and easier spin for a more measured game.
