External Review for Der-Materialspezialist Dr. Jekyll Mr. Hyde on March 13, 2023

It is declared by the manufacturer as Off on the forehand and Def on the backhand, and if I agree with the speed of the backhand, then the forehand, in my opinion, is clearly not higher than ALL, I would even say ALL-. The blade has good control on both sides, but even the fastest rubber will rot due to very slow wood.
At first glance, the grip is soft and pleasant, but literally a month later cracks formed on it, this happens to the tree due to moisture, the hand sweats and the soft tree literally bursts. (This is not a defect, this is such a blade, I had 2 such blades and this happened to both).
Also, it's a matter of taste, but I did not like that the blade is very thick, compared to everything that I played before, for this reason the fingers get tired quickly and it is not easy to twiddle.
And finally, because of the balsa, a strong vibration is felt in the hand even after not powerful balls.
Of the positive moments, I would note only the control on low-middle speeds and the blade is light.
