Custom Table Tennis Premium Hinoki Balsa Carbon Friendship 729 Battle II Bat

We set out to design a range of cost effective blades without compromising on quality or features. With our new range of blades you can expect the same high standards and playability as the big brands without paying big brand prices.

Our Custom Table Tennis Premium Hinoki Series blades feature premium hand picked Japanese Hinoki for unrivalled touch and feel. The blades are sealed by hand to prevent splintering when changing rubbers.

The Hinoki Balsa Carbon blade features a classic 3ply + 2 carbon construction but replaces the Kiri core for Balsa. The Balsa core significantly reduces the weight and creates even more touch and feel. This blade can also be suitable for an allround game when paired with high control rubbers.

For more than 250 years, Japanese Hinoki has been referred to has the “King of Wood” and regarded as one of the best wood choices for table tennis blades due to it’s high touch and feel characteristics. Japanese Hinoki is becoming increasingly expensive and difficult to source so we are pleased to be able to offer this blade at a great price.

Players can experience catapult and speed without much effort. The wood enables fast dynamic speed and also sensitive touch play.

This bat is fitted with Friendship 729 Battle II rubbers for spin and control.

Battle II is a newer development from 729 and designed for the new plastic ball. Mildly tacky aggressive close to the table attacking rubber features a powerful top sheet and medium firm sponge. Battle II is designed to generate spin on serve, compact stroke as well as pushes.
