Customer review for Yasaka Goiabao 5 - Chinese Penhold

External Review for Yasaka Goiabao 5 on June 17, 2018

I have purchased Yasaka Goiabao 5 blade from TTMode and got it delivered within a week to India.
I appreciate their service, including packing and lacquering of blade. All are top notch.
I have paired it with Yasaka Mark V HPS 2.0mm on both sides. The racket weight is ~ 181 grams.
It has a hard outer layer, medium second layer and a thick/medium inner layer.
Perfect mix of hard wood & flex.
Counter-hit engages the hardness. The trajectory more linear and precise.
Looping / topspin engages the flex. A beautiful arc loaded with spin.
Cut and push are comfortable and purposeful.
Blocking has to be done with purpose, especially on the backhand.
If done properly, blocking is like kill-block with low bounce and tough to retrieve for the opponent.
You can dictate the pace of the rally, as you have both the hardness & flex at your disposal.
Yasaka rate it at Off+. It is more Off-. Intermediate players can handle it with ease.
