Strange New World

These are for Mr. Thomas up in West Virginia. Me and Thom are always working on s l o w i n g things down.
The idea behind these two blades is to couple very hard thin veneers with low-density balsa to make a slow blade that, when coupled with LP, will cause severe reversal and other pip-funk and take as much off the incoming ball as possible.

First off we have an oversized Defensive blade.

Palo Maria - Balsa - Balsa - Balsa - Palo Maria

9.2mm

62 Grams

Balsa Handle (A first for me... I'm biting on Neubauer again)




Then we have a real freaky blade.

Defensive Rotor C-Pen

Zebrano-WRC-Balsa-WRC-Jatoba

5 mm

57 Grams
