XU XIN [CHN] Champion Pro Special – Stiga

Champion Pro Special paddle for China's XU XIN, currently playing with the Stiga Dynasty Carbon Xu Xin Edition blade (flared handle), assembled with black DHS Hurricane 3 National Edition Blue (2.2mm sponge) and red Butterfly Dignics 09C (2.1mm sponge) rubber.

THE BLADE:Stiga Dynasty Carbon Xu Xin Edition is the result of years of development in search of a carbon blade with the ultimate balance between classic wood feel, known as the “Stiga feeling”, and carbon fabric development. Stiga developed and designed Dynasty Carbon together with World and Olympic champion Xu Xin, to create a blade especially for the omniscient player who masters all elements of Table Tennis.

The Dynasty Carbon uses a Swedish made and patented carbon technology, called TeXtreme+, which makes the carbon fabric as stable and strong near the edges as in the middle, without affecting the overall balance and weight of the blade. Dynasty Carbon is built with a thick middle veneer which enhances the core feeling and overall balance of the blade. The outer veneer is Koto, chosen for its quality and short in-game dwell time in comparison to more traditional outer veneers. This blade which combines superb touch with unbeatable power, gives you the possibility to be as creative, technical and powerful as Xu Xin.

BLACK RUBBER:DHS Hurricane 3 National Edition is the highest quality version of Hurricane 3 rubber available. With the National version, you can expect a dramatic increase in spin, control, and speed. Everything you enjoy from the original Hurricane 3 has been amplified!.

RED RUBBER:Butterfly Dignics 09C, with the upgraded friction High Tension features, guides a player who expects the unique feeling of a friction rubber to new heights. The essence is the combination of Spring Sponge X - the advanced version of Spring Sponge which has more elasticity; the uniquely composed top sheet - with strengthened abrasion - proves great resistance on the surface, providing the feeling of holding the ball at impact. This is even more true with the newest addition to the line, Butterfly Dignics 09C. Compatible friction and a high level bounce is realized thanks to the synergy effect between the original top sheet and a rather hard Spring Sponge X (a little harder than Tenergy 05 Hard), to bring out the features of a friction rubber while upgrading the High Tension effect. The pimples code No. 209 delivers topspin and defensive play with high amount of spin as well as ease of over-the-table techniques and counter topspin.
