In order to be able to combine the great balsa feeling, and the penetrating power of carbon, there is much thinking necessary in terms of the veneer structure. The result is the development of the Tibhar Rapid Carbon Light, which indeed successfully and harmoniously combines positive aspects of both materials.
The center (core) ply is made of balsa. Balsa is a tree which grows in neo-tropical regions, which correspond to South America, Central America, and the West Indies. The tree reaches a height of approx. 50 m, and a trunk diameter of about 2 m. Balsa is very light (density 130 kg/m3), exhibits a low strength (Young´s modulus: 2,600 N/mm2), and is quite soft (Janka hardness: 88). Therefore, balsa is generally well known for its good control, feedback, and feeling. However, balsa also exhibits a substantial catapult effect, which highlights its suitability as an offensive blade. In particular, the softness induces a pleasant and positive gaming behavior. Blocks, returns, or soft topspins exhibit a good control. Due to the light balsa wood, the low overall weight of the Rapid Carbon Light is only 78 g!
The lightness of this TT blade, the catapult effect of the balsa ply, and the combination with two carbon inlays substantially contribute to its suitability as a very offensive blade! The low weight decrease the amount of physical effort necessary to quickly accelerate the blade. The carbon layers located around the core further increase the speed, directness, and power to allow very offensive strokes. Taking this together, the Tibhar Rapid Carbon Light is very suitable to exert much pressure, no matter if acting close to the table, or from the mid-distance.
Furthermore, a good spin potential guarantees very rotational topspins, which can be placed in a very precise manner in order to score.
In case you prefer a spinny attacking game, and a light blade, the Tibhar Rapid Carbon Light is an excellent choice!
