Reviews of Nittaku S-5 (7)

I love this paddle. As a matter of fact, I love it so much I ditched my Nittaku Acoustic and bought a second S-5 - heresy, I know. I think what sealed the deal for me was playing against an 1800 at my club (I'm a 1300) and having him ask me what I was playing with expecting it to be a carbon paddle. The combination of power and precision with this paddle is tremendous...touch when you need it and you can confidently crack it when you want to finish a point, something I really didn't find in the Acoustic. I thought the Acoustic had great feel, but that increased feel and flexibility came at the expense of accuracy when ramping up the speed. With the S-5 I feel like have both. Also, the Acoustic handle is terrible (way too small) and I find the handle on the S-5 sublime. The fit and finish is just exquisite on the S-5, better than the Acoustic. I really think this will be a long term paddle that I will grow with and I'll simply dial up the hardness and speed of the rubbers I select in the future as my game improves (current rubbers: FH - XIOM Vega X 2.0, BH - Andro Rasanter R42 2.0). Highly recommended.

Nice blade that has great feel. Blade has speed when needed and offers excellent control for ball placement. The blade handle is very comfortable and feels very nice in hand. Blade is similiar to the Donic Ovtcharov Feat with a just a little more weight. QUALITY BLADE and well constructed with top-notch craftsmanship. Give it a try.

Sold as a all+, but it's off -. Same speed like a Stiga Infinity. Soft touch , no unpleasant vibrations. And yes flat hitting isn't the strongest suit. High throw angle. Control gets mushy with soft sponge rubbers. I got the best results with fastarc g1 and c1. Excellent craftsmanship and German construction knowledge by Mr Schneider from soulspin.
