Stiga i1 Hybrid Carbon

The Stiga I1 Hybrid Carbon has been developed with one clear objective: to let you feel the ball, even when the pace is high.

The STIGA Feel is the pure connection between player and blade. The vibration that resonates in your hand at ball contact, the intimacy of every stroke that gives you confidence in every shot you play. Like the resonance of a finely crafted wooden instrument, every touch delivers a clear, trustworthy response. A direct, natural connection between player and ball that creates confidence in every stroke – not by making the blade soft or slow, but by controlling vibration, feedback, and response with precision.

The fiber of the I1 Hybrid Carbon is not pure carbon. It is a hybrid composite developed to improve dwell time, vibration control, and overall playing feel compared to traditional carbon blades. At the core of the construction is a thin hybrid layer of Innegra™ and carbon fiber. In pure carbon blades, certain vibrations can feel sharp and difficult to control. Innegra™ selectively dampens these unwanted vibrations, while carbon provides stability and support for offensive play. Together, they deliver a clean, predictable, and consistent ball contact, stroke after stroke.

The hybrid fiber layer is positioned directly beneath the outer veneer to influence ball feel where it matters most. The result is clear, balanced feedback in both forehand and backhand shots, even when you’re playing close to the table and under pressure.

Hybrid Carbon reinforced with Innegra™:
• Softer feel with fewer unwanted vibrations
• Improved control without sacrificing speed
• Faster than all-wood blades
• Softer and more forgiving than pure carbon blades
