The blade of the legend
The ply combination of this offensive blade corresponds to the one Zhang Jike used during his active career. The Chinese World Champion and Olympic Champion worked closely with the DONIC development department, which accurately implemented his specifications: an inner ply made of extremely light Kiri wood, wrapped in Ayous plies and two layers of Cured Aramid Carbon. The outer veneer consists of two layers of hard African Koto wood. Zhang Jike was not only extremely ambitious as a player and fine-tuned his technique to perfection, but he is also now doing the same in material development. Under his supervision, a dynamic offensive blade has been created —a powerful weapon for ambitious players. A blade like the one with which Zhang Jike has won everything that there is to win in the world of table tennis: DONIC ZHANG JIKE ORIGINAL CARBON.
Technology: 7 layers of Kiri inner ply, 3+5 Ayous, 2+6 Cured Aramid Carbon, 1+7 Koto. Character: Dynamic, powerful, sensitive touch when hitting the ball, great feedback.
Recommendation: For dynamic offensive players who like to play with powerful shots but expect good control.
