Customer review for Stiga Rosewood NCT VII

External Review for Stiga Rosewood NCT VII on December 1, 2016

I have been using this blade for two years now with fastarcs airoc astro and finally the Gewo hype xt pro. It is a very ballanced off/off+ blade. Mid stifness and hardness, great speed, great control and very nice feeling (the vibration everyone is talking about). You can play very spiny short game and easily topspin the first ball availlable. When the rally is on you can place the ball extremly well while maintaining a good pace. Looping is relatively easy, blocking is as easy as it can get for a 7-ply and a smash can be pretty fast but not exactly deadly. Combined with harder rubbers it will give you the hitting power but placement should become more difficult. It is forgiving blade if you consider it's speed, but i would't say it has a huge sweet spot, neither a tiny one. All in all a great all-wood blade for an offensive player who usually is on the attack, but can also score some points with smart placement in during the game.
