- Hardi: good blade… use fast rubber with it and u will have a good combination of speed & control…. seeeeeeal the blade that is my advice.
- Yogi Bear: The C100 was designed for players who are very spin-oriented and are more conscious on control rather than speed. I opted to use the Adidas Syntec regular and alternate it with a Dawei 388A Sprungfeder rubber and also a Double fish 1615 rubbers. this is a control set up and an all around set up. I would rate the speed of this blade in between Off- to Off. A faster Offensive classic with a Koto toplayer or an Avalox p500 that is faster and has a more solid feel. Looping was great especially with a chinese rubber since I have a chinese stroke. Looping sidespin and taking the ball late produces a very nice arc on both strokes. The blade has flex but has minimal vibration. The blade is balanced and has a medium sweet spot area. The blade head is wider than the current fibertec series blade or the challenge series blade by a few mm. I opted to use the Double Fish 1615 since I was corect on my assumption that this will be a good blade for long pips especially for pip hitters and attackers. I tried chopping with it but its too fast for chopping. Blocking with the LP wasnt very hard and hitting knuckle balls were easy. I would recommend medium-soft and medium to hard rubbers for this blade since its a bit flexy and the top layer koto isnt stiff. The following rubbers are greatly recommended: 1. Adidas Syntec Fast 2. Adidas Tenzone 3. Adidas P5 and P7
