The WALNUT gives a nice, direct ball feedback thanks to the outer veneer made of Walnut wood. This makes it very accurate in blocking and shooting. Long undercut rallies close to the table are easy to play with this blade. The ball doesn’t bounce too high out of the racket, so it’s easy to get the drop on your opponent. The spin potential is also not to be scoffed at and allows powerful topspins even from half distance.
