YINHE (Milkyway) Def 9

This is an automatic translation. To view the original article switch the site language to RU.

It's a kombi base with a thick central layer of balsa. It has a slower right side and is optimized for long spikes. The right side is about all-around in speed, the left is about all-in speed. In general, it has properties very similar to Def 10 only has a central layer of 1 mm thinner and therefore a smaller overall speed.

Thanks to this design, Def 9 is focused on a combined game using spikes. The left-hand defense of the OH away from the table is very control, and at the same time gives a very powerful sawed with a decent speed of flight of the ball. On such protection a lot of mistakes are made, as a variety of unpleasant effects for the opponent are added to this.

At the oX table it is good to play with a block, as well as easy to attack and counterattack. At the same time, thick balsa helps a lot, adding speed and stability.

On the right, you can play with a smooth overlay, attacking the tospin in place or a powerful flat. Or short/medium spikes, they can also do topspin, and of course they are very good to beat flat. And the defense on the right despite the high speed, too, quite good, especially spiked.

And if you need a little more speed, then look at the adjacent bases of Def 10 and Def 11. Series 9-10-11 differs by 1 mm thickness of the central layer of balsa, and accordingly this one step of speed.
