Ma Lin Extra Special is a highly acclaimed 7-ply blade, designed for experienced players seeking a decisive offensive game. Renowned for its robust performance and designed for aggressive play, this blade allows for dynamic top-spinning and excellent control in fast exchanges.
Popular in Asia and particularly favored by players in Japan, this blade is appreciated for its ability to generate power without excessive vibration. The blade’s medium feedback ensures that players receive adequate tactile information during play, allowing for better control over shot placement and spin generation. Its design caters to those who prefer a direct and consequential playing style, enabling effective execution of fast loops, smashes, and counter-attacks.
To complement the Ma Lin Extra Special’s characteristics, pairing it with Rakza 7 enhances its spin capabilities, providing a balanced combination of speed and control. For players seeking a slightly firmer feel with increased precision, Rakza X is an excellent choice, as it complements the blade’s power-oriented design while offering enhanced grip for spin-heavy strokes.
