Introducing MATADOR, the innovative offensive blade crafted for players utilizing pimple-out or Anti-Spin rubbers who seek a fast blade with exceptional control and disruptive effects. MATADOR's special plywood composition delivers remarkable power, catering to the demands of a modern attacking game. Performing fast topspin shots and high-rotation looping becomes effortlessly achievable with this blade.
What sets MATADOR apart is its rare ability among OFF blades to produce a distinctive disruptive effect when used with pimple-out or Anti-Spin rubbers. Crucially, the blade consistently generates the low bounce that is traditionally sought after by pimple-out or Anti-Spin players. This characteristic holds true whether passively blocking with long pimples or executing chop-blocks close to the table.
When paired with offensive pips-out rubbers, MATADOR offers everything needed for a powerful and highly effective attacking game. Despite its relative rigidity, the blade retains a remarkable "touch" for the ball, delivering surprisingly good control across all playing strokes. MATADOR emerges as a "must-have" for aggressive pimple-out/Anti-Spin players, classified as an OFF- blade, weighing approximately 88g, and constructed with 7 plies.
