Offensive Classic WRB (Stiga)

Written by StefanArak - Top 10 reviewer - View all my reviews An amazing blade for a beginner who wants to start out with something slightly faster than the Allaround classic, the WRB is slightly gimmicky and in my opinion makes the bat feel a bit flimsy but that extra bit of headspeed may make a difference I suppose. It allows great control, the build quality (typical of stiga) is great and I have no regrets buying this bat, and have bought this bat for many people when they ask me to construct them a bat (along with 1.8 srivers) as their first non pre-made bat which will allow them to attack.

Written by t3h anarchist - #1 reviewer - View all my reviews Stiga offensive classic WRB is a blade that i personally think is only suitable for intermediate level offensive players. The blade is not as offensive as its name claims, it is actually not that fast. There is pretty good control on it, but not extraordinary either. this blade seems to sacrifice a lot of speed but with not increase of control. stiga tried to create a lightweight offensive blade, and i think that is the problem. It is too light and not thick enough, so it is hard to gain momentum to get that elasticity that seems to shoot balls right off the paddle. the wood is semi hard, and not hard enough for a offensive blade.
