The DHS C5 (Attack) is a 5-ply all-wood blade constructed with 5-ply wood. The stiffness rating of 6/10 places this blade in the medium-firm range. You'll feel the ball sink into the wood before it springs back, giving you a balanced mix of dwell time for spin generation and enough kick for fast attacks. The speed rating of 7.8/10 offers enough pace for offensive play while the 7.8/10 control score keeps the ball manageable. This balance makes it suitable for players who attack but still need reliability in rallies. At just 83-88g, this blade is relatively light, making it easy to maneuver and quick on transitions — ideal for players who value hand speed over raw power. This blade is best suited for loop attackers who drive heavy topspin, allround players who mix offense and defense, and is recommended for intermediate level players.
