Drvo Yasaka / Myth Soft Carbon Penhold

The Yasaka Myth Soft Carbon Penhold is the Chinese Penhold (CPEN) edition of Yasaka's balanced soft-carbon offensive blade, mastercrafted in Sweden. Featuring two ultra-thin soft carbon fleece layers embedded between selected Scandinavian wood veneers, this penhold blade provides the enlarged sweet spot and structural stability of carbon while preserving the delicate touch, high dwell time, and wrist maneuverability essential for penhold touch play and RPB looping.

Key Playing Characteristics

• Soft Carbon Fleece Dynamics: Dampens harsh impact vibrations, providing forgiving feedback and a large sweet spot.
• Authentic Chinese Penhold (CPEN) Ergonomics: Conical handle designed for seamless wrist flexibility on over-the-table banana flicks and pushes.
• Extended Dwell Time: Allows players to hold the ball and impart heavy rotation on opening loops against low underspin.
• Smooth RPB Transitions: Lightweight balance facilitates rapid switching between traditional penhold blocks and modern RPB drives.
