The
Tibhar Samsonov Force Pro exhibits various speed reserves. Based on a structure consisting of 7 plies, and an overall thickness of 6.2 mm, this TT blade is characterized by a very dynamical behavior, much speed, and an
incredible penetrating power.
In terms of the veneer combination, a balanced ratio of thicker as well as thinner inner and core plies was chosen. The outer veneer is made of
Limba. Limba is a tree reaching a height of up to 45 m, whereas its trunk can reach a diameter of up to 1.5 m. This tree is common in areas south of the equator. Its density and hardness are low to medium (density: 520 kg/m
3; Janka hardness: 430). However, this wood is quite strong (Young´s modulus: 9,000 N/mm
2). In the table tennis world, Limba is a classical material which
unites speed and control. Limba plies are fast, but not very elastic, and not very springy. Hence, this wood exhibits a soft feeling, and much control but still a good speed.
With the
Samsonov Force Pro, Tibhar created a TT blade which is perfect to constantly exert pressure on your opponent without, however, frivolously giving away points. The focus of this TT blade is
medium-heavy. If you are using heavy rubbers, then there will be a top-heaviness, and the
sweet spot moves toward the head of the blade. The Tibhar Samsonov Force Pro is suitable for a very aggressive, and offensive game!
Vladimir Samsonov is probably the most popular and most successful Tibhar contract player worldwide. Also the products which carry his name are very popular, and one cannot imagine a market without these products.
In case the Force Pro is still too slow for you, the
