tricarbon

I have had 2 timo tricarbons and yes it is a rocket, heavy and hard, very little feeling and low control, hope it suits you, for me it was too fast.

I ended up destroying both of them, one cutting the shape down to smaller to bring down the weight and the other I split down the centre of balsa and stuck half on a super slow dr neubaur barricade blade. making a slow one side fast the other side bat, which I sold to a combination player.

Very Fast!

I look around the net to see what the Boll Tricarbon had to offer and I found that everyone had the same thing to say; very fast! I hope the extra speed suits you well, I don't think I could go any faster than what I am playing right now (Timo Boll ALC) without sacrificing a lot of my control on the ball. As I have played more and more, it has become apparent to me that speed isn't everything in TT. More often than not, I find myself scoring more points through good placement and strong spin than through super fast shots. I have tried to incorporate this idea into my style and have abandoned the quest for speed. I hope that you like how it feels for you though! Keep us up to date and leave some feedback on the blade once you get to use it some more!

i agree

yeah it is too fast...but my coach said i wil get used to it soon and it will suit me

hmm!!

i just bought it ..and yeah it is too fast but my coach said that it will suit me...
it is very speed without much control and i heard that it breaks very easily

balsa is fragile

anything that uses balsa will be fragile and I suspect every blade that uses balsa is not really made by butterfly japan.
