Tibhar Li Qian - A successful example for this table tennis blade
Within the defensive table tennis style, there is much activity going on! This is what the traditional company Tibhar was also thinking, hence, introducing a new blade: The Tibhar Li Qian. It is named after the polish-chinese table tennis player Li Qian, who recently won the European Championship title in Alicante (Spain, singles) in 2018 using this Japanese blade.
Tibhar Li Qian - Properties and suitability of the blade
As already indicated, the Li Qian from the house of Tibhar is a defensive blade (gaming system: Def). Weighing approx. 85 g, it is neither too heavy, nor too light, but quite pleasant when holding in your hand. The size of the head of the Tibhar Li Qian is approx. 165x156 mm.
The 5 veneers of this table tennis blade combine an excellent control, and a very good feedback, resulting in a great safety of the ball. Offensive attacks coming from your opponent can be successfully neutralized. You can also return such attacks with a pronounced backspin, exerting much pressure. All these properties are essential for defensive players.
