JOOLA Rossi Force blade

The Rossi Force blade is one of the most popular JOOLA blades. It’s an offensive blade, and especially good for players who like to loop with both forehand and backhand. However, the outer wood layers of the blade are Hinoki, which gives a soft feel for finesse shots. The two carbon layers give it great speed. (The center layer is Kiri wood.) The Hinoki-Carbon-Kiri combination gives the blade its great speed and great feeling. The blade is used by USA Team Member Han Xiao and junior star Amaresh Sahu. The handle comes in flared, straight or anatomic; it also comes penhold style.
