Details
The Stiga Clipper Wood is one of the favorite table tennis blades of many top players. It is a blade with a long lasting tradition. Hence, many players who love the "Swedish touch" swear by the Clipper Wood. The first actual use of this TT blade dates back quite a long time. Since 1981, the Clipper Wood is a best-seller for Stiga. A typical feature of this blade is the red colored middle veneer and handle. This makes you easily recognize the Stiga Clipper Wood. However, the fancy design is just one positive aspect. Maybe more importantly, it convinces with quality!
In the early years, the Clipper Wood was known as the fastest table tennis blade worldwide, and has been very popular among professional players. In 2015, it was classified as a purely offensive blade (Off). Now, there are more than 10 other Stiga blades available which are even faster than the Stiga Clipper Wood.
The typical Clipper Wood feeling, in contrast, is unrivalled, even today. With its 7 veneers (without carbon), it convinces by a moderate speed. Furthermore, the Wood exhibits a great and unique feeling for the ball. To achieve such a combination in such a balanced ratio was - from a materialistic point of view - the largest challenge. But Stiga did it, and is rightly called the best company regarding blades.
In detail, there are 3 relatively hard and fast inner plies, and 4 soft outer plies combined together. The result is a highly balanced offensive table tennis blade, of course made of hand-picked, thoroughly chosen, and specially tested plies made of natural wood.
The unique and dynamical manufacturing technique makes the Stiga Clipper Wood very suitable for pure attackers. The thickness of the blades is approx. 6.7 mm, and its weight is approx. 90 g. All Stiga blades have an extremely high quality, which is primarily based on many years of experience in timber/blade construction and manufacturing.
