The Cybershape Carbon CWT blade is designed for offensive table tennis players, featuring unique technology and collaboration with world-class player Truls Möregårdh. Here are its key features:
-The Cybershape design with STIGA CWT technology allows you to customize the blade's weight and balance using included weights of 3, 6, and 9 grams.
-Developed in partnership with vice-world champion Truls Möregårdh, the blade is optimized for offensive play.
-The blade's design includes specially crafted weights for Truls's favorite shots: the chop, push, and slap.
-It offers a larger sweet spot compared to traditional blades, enhancing shot power without compromising control.
-The CCF technology applies carbon fiber directly to the wood core, resulting in a softer touch and increased control.
-The blade showcases a unique lens and gold-colored design featuring Truls's victory stance.
-It comes in exclusive packaging and includes a fan card featuring Truls Möregårdh.
Truls Möregårdh's perspective on the Cybershape Carbon CWT:
Truls highlights the importance of adjusting the blade's weight to adapt to different playing conditions. This customization allows players to influence the blade's mass, contributing to kinetic energy. He discusses the advantages of using different weight options, particularly the 9-gram weight for increased power and speed, especially in larger arenas.
Born in 2002, Truls Möregårdh rapidly ascended to become Sweden's prominent table tennis star, using the Cybershape blade to secure the silver medal in the 2021 world championships.
Customizing Balance to Personal Preferences:
The blade's weight distribution, referred to as the center of gravity, can be adjusted to achieve a high-center of gravity, low-center of gravity, or a neutral balance. Players can personalize their balance based on their playing style, prior experience, and rubber weight.
-Lower overall weight suits players who prefer a fast-paced, close-to-the-table game.
-Increased weight generates more kinetic energy for powerful strokes.
STIGA CWT (Custom Weight Technology) is a revolutionary, patent-pending feature that allows this blade to be tailored to individual preferences.
Optimized Hitting Area and Larger Sweet Spot:
Research reveals that most players' optimal hitting area is in the blade's top half. The blade's design optimizes this area, making it larger than traditional blades' upper halves. The result is more power without sacrificing control.
The Cybershape design, tested in collaboration with the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), offers a larger sweet spot higher up on the blade, enhancing stroke power and ball control.
Optimized Hitting Area Closer to the Table Surface:
The design positions the hitting area closer to the table's surface, providing an advantage in returning short serves and shots. The blade's angles create multiple aiming points for spin variation.
Unique Carbon Fiber Composite & CCF Technology:
Cybershape is a 5+2-ply blade using Close Core Fibre (CCF) technology, which places the carbon layer directly on the wood core, resulting in enhanced control and speed.
Despite having a larger surface area, Cybershape maintains a manageable weight due to its lightweight German-made carbon fiber composite.
Top-Quality Wood for Stable Handles:
The blade comes in three handle options: Master/Concave, Classic/Straight, and Pen/Penhold. The handles are constructed from high-quality wood with a textured surface for an optimal grip without slipperiness.
