Red + Black 1st Dan OFF+ is a premium 5+2 inner carbon blade designed for offensive players who want different playing characteristics on the forehand and backhand. Built around a kiri core with dual inner carbon layers, it features spruce as the forehand outer veneer and walnut on the backhand side. This asymmetrical construction creates a higher throw angle and longer dwell time on the forehand, while delivering a flatter trajectory, crisper rebound, and greater precision on the backhand. At approximately 5.7 mm thick and 90 g in weight, it offers a generous sweet spot and excellent feedback.
The 1st Dan is ideal for players who open rallies with heavy topspin before finishing points with fast counters and direct blocks. The softer spruce forehand promotes outstanding spin production and confidence in looping, while the harder walnut backhand provides speed, accuracy, and stability for aggressive backhand play. Thanks to its inner carbon construction, the blade combines the natural feel of wood with increased power and consistency, making it an excellent choice for modern offensive players using different rubbers or techniques on each side
