Dr Neubauer Grand Master+ Table Tennis Blade
This is an advanced version of the popular Grand Master defensive table tennis blade. It is specifically designed for modern defensive play, offering enhanced offensive capabilities while retaining exceptional control for disruptive special rubbers like long pips and anti-spin.
Key Characteristics & Performance
Enhanced Speed & Power: Compared to the original Grand Master, the "Plus" version is slightly stiffer and faster, allowing players to execute more dangerous and dynamic offensive shots (such as loops and counter-hits) without sacrificing defensive security.
Disruptive Play: It maintains a high level of control when blocking close to the table with long pips or anti-spin rubbers, ensuring low trajectories and disruptive spin-reversal against fast attacks.
Control & Feel: Despite the slight increase in speed, it provides precise tactile feedback, making it reliable for chopping away from the table or pushing close-in.
