Stiga Mantra H is among the fastest rubbers available. It features a very hard sponge and a unique topsheet mixture of synthetic and natural rubber. Close to the table this rubber is an excellent choice for driving and blocking with high speed and a laser-like trajectory for an inverted rubber with still decent control in the short game. Away from the table it is capable of excellent spinny counterlooping. This rubber remains fast and powerful at all distances.

Stiga Cybershape Carbon – a completely new type of blade with a unique shape and larger hitting area! Cybershape is a table tennis blade that is unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. Studies have shown that, for the majority of players, the optimal hitting area lies on the top half of the blade. That’s why Stiga optimized the hitting area to be 11% larger for the shakehand grip and 9% larger for the penhold grip compared to a traditional blade. One of the special features of Stiga Cybershape Carbon is that, during returns, the hitting area is as much as 6.5 cm closer to the table compared with 2.5 cm for a round blade.
