The Bladex 800 (first launched as Zhang Nan's racket) is the core of the speed line: head-light, stiff and quick. Suits advanced doubles players with quick hands.

  • Head-light balance with fast recovery
  • Stiff shaft for tight, flat exchanges
  • Widely used by Chinese players
  • Stiff shaft is unforgiving for slow swings
  • Less rear-court smash weight
