ℹ️ Detailed information about this blade
Table tennis racket offering great control for all-around players (ALL+)
We designed the Control to offer exceptional control and stability. It’s no coincidence that it’s currently our most popular blade. It
offers tremendous control, allowing you to place every shot with great precision. The combination of lightweight Kiri and relatively hard Limba wood on the outside allows for a particularly sensitive and controlled playing style.
The Control is a true all-rounder and handles all playing situations with ease—whether it's a block, a shot, a push, or a topspin.
Here's How to Play Control
The 0.6 mm-thick Limba outer veneer ensures relatively crisp ball contact. As a result, the ball bounces off the blade in a direct and predictable manner, rather than being catapulted forward.
This predictability is especially helpful when blocking, countering, and flicking: You can accurately gauge the distance and placement, and you always know where the ball is going.
The Control also excels at topspin. It plays with great control, but that doesn’t mean it’s slow—quite the opposite. The speed is sufficient for an active offensive game, and you can build up plenty of pressure.However, if
your game relies on building maximum pressure with several fast topspins in a row, there are more suitable offensive blades for that.
CONTROL is here to help you with that
Above all, CONTROL helps you avoid unnecessary mistakes and gives you confidence. It's quite forgiving of mistakes and helps you improve your technique.
You can place the ball precisely, control the pace well, and handle different game situations with the same blade. This is especially helpful if your game isn't just about topspin, but you switch frequently between push shots, blocks, counterattacks, and your own attacks.
Here's what you should look for before buying
- The CONTROL isn't designed for maximum speed. If you mainly want to win by going fast, it'll probably be too slow for you.
- It plays relatively hard, but it's very clear. If you're looking for a softer blade that has a lot of flex, the Control isn't the right fit for your game.
Our Conclusion
The CONTROL is ideal for players who want to bring more consistency to their game without sacrificing speed. Its strength lies not in maximum speed or spin, but in the fact that it allows you to control the ball with precision and predictability. If you frequently switch between different game situations and enjoy frustrating your opponents, the CONTROL is a blade that will support you well in every situation.
