Customer review for Stiga Offensive Classic - Chinese Penhold

External Review for Stiga Offensive Classic on July 19, 2019

I'm an amateur without any coaching, but play regularly and very passionate about the game. I was playing with a premade Stag Ninja Fire and then wanted to move to a custom set up. My game is predominantly about aggressive forehand topspin loops and drives, with backhand pushes and flicks. I jumped in to the world of custom bats feet first and ended up with a Donic Carbospeed with Mark V on both sides. Hilarious, I know! My backhand improved significantly, but it was no fun. Couldn't topspin - either flew off or hit the net because I wasn't getting good lift on backspin. And too heavy for my liking. Difficult to feel the ball. So, started significant research efforts. Finally got my new set up today - Stiga OC with Donic BlueFire M2 on the forehand and Rakza 7 on the backhand. Any new bat I've ever used took at least a few days and occasionally weeks for me to get used to. This one? Boy oh boy...I just pulled it out of the box and started playing. It felt like I've forever played with it. Smashed a lot of guys around. Amazing feel, solid control, looping and driving is easy. Backhand seems even better. And no, it not slow - when you smash it, it stays smashed. For my game, I'm able to get more power on my topspin than I was with the OC. I'm already in love with this set up and can't wait for more!
