citat (a skoro sva klasicna Stigina drveta imaju limbu, ali mekoca zavisi i od procenta ostalih drveta u reketu, najcesce tvrdog ayousa)
Limba wood makes a good table tennis blade. The usage of limba wood became popular in 1950 in guitars. It is considered as as a west African wood. The limba wood even replaced wood like mahogany because of its straight grain and dark color. The Limba wood changes its color as the time passes. So, it is hard to spot a limba wood by its color. The limba wood is soft. However, it can’t give a soft feeling to the blade by itself. When used with other veneers, a limba blade can give a hard feeling.
The limba has excellent acoustic properties, and so good vibrations which make this wood excellent for table tennis blades. The thinner veneers of limba are being used in table tennis blades are popular for topspin game. The wood gives good acoustic click sound when used with speed glue effect rubbers, it’s vibrations or flex is liked by top spin players. The more the thickness, it increases the hitting ability. The TSP Limban is such a blade for hitting.
Mekano drvo u celini bi bilo od spoljnih slojeva limbe i srednjeg sloja balse.
Ali ne treba mesati tvrdocu/mekocu drveta sa krutoscu drveta...debeli sloj balse daje krutost drvetu...
viseslojnost drveta (7 slojeva i vise) daje vecu tvrdocu reketu...
