Yasaka Myth Extra Special

Yasaka Myth Extra Special is a powerful 7-ply wood blade made for experienced players who want speed, stability, and a direct offensive feel without switching to carbon.

Its construction uses harder inner veneers for a solid core, a slightly softer middle veneer to reduce unwanted vibration, and thin hard walnut outer veneers for added surface hardness and speed. The result is a crisp, stable blade with strong power in fast exchanges.

Myth Extra Special is well suited for players who like aggressive topspin, quick counters, smashes, and close-to-table pressure. The medium feedback gives enough ball information for spin and placement, while the 7-ply build gives the blade the strength to finish points when the ball sits up.

This is a faster, more demanding all-wood option than Myth Extra Offensive.

Choose Yasaka Myth Extra Special if you want a powerful 7-ply all-wood blade with a solid feel, fast response, and strong control in aggressive play.

Rubber Pairing Advice...
