The tibhar chila Off blade is a very light weighted blade, it feels kind of like an optimum sync from stiga. It an average attacking blade, The lightweight is not as bad as ther light weight blades for looping,but personally, for me still it is too light to have good power for effective loops. The control is pretty good for an offensive blade though. It is pretty good controlled, and you can loop very good angled shots, as well as you can block pretty well, so actually i would say this is more of an OFF- or ALL+ blade. Overall, it is probably suitable for beginning to intermediate players, but more advanced players will want something heavier and harder.

A really(!) light blade! The one I got was about 75 g. I changed the handle from the original FL handle to the handle of my broken Maze Off ST, so I can't really say anything about the handle. The blade is stiff, but really soft, and did I mention, light!. It's got a great feeling and can be used to almost anything. Loops great, good control in the short game, and good control for smashing etc. It does however lack in power if you step a bit away from the table, and it's not the most stable blade for blocking. It's really good if you like to mix up the play with occasional chopping, lobbing, drop shots etc. Just watch a video of Patrick Chila and you'll see what I mean by "mixing it up". It gets easily dented because of the soft wood, and my broke after about 3-4 weeks. I would probably still be using it if it didn't break so easily and if they could make better handles to it. The blade itself is amazing at that price! Should be really good for New/young players too because of the good control and the light weight.
