Blades tested: Loki Wei Shihao ARC / SARC (outer carbon series)

Test rubbers: forehand Palio CJ8000, backhand Palio CJ8000

One sentence per blade — something a little different this time.

Quick Notes

Wei Shihao ARC: Light and airy feel, transparent and crisp, good arc, built-in forgiveness, but average power and deep strength. Good for beginners to intermediate players who want a loop-attack blade; great for practice. 228 RMB, good build quality, excellent value.

Wei Shihao SARC: Super ARC fiber; heavier feel than the ARC, loses some of that transparent crispness and control, but ball quality jumps up by 1 to 1.5 levels, with noticeably more power and a longer, flatter arc. Aimed at competitive players looking for more firepower; fast-attack loop blade. 288 RMB — hits the sweet spot for me.
