Yasaka Myth Extra Offensive

Yasaka Myth Extra Offensive is ideal for players who want the speed of a fast all-wood blade with the direct feedback and touch needed for technical attacking play.

The 5-ply all-wood construction combines hard outer veneers with selected Scandinavian pine veneers. The result is a blade with crisp contact, good stability, and the clear ball feedback many offensive players prefer over carbon.

Myth Extra Offensive is especially strong for close-to-mid-distance topspin play. It supports quick counters, aggressive opening loops, and fast exchanges near the table while keeping enough control for placement and spin variation.

Compared with carbon blades, Myth Extra Offensive gives a more linear response. You get a direct connection to the ball, but it may not produce the same free power from farther back. 

QUICK TAKE:
Choose Yasaka Myth Extra Offensive if you want a fast all-wood blade with crisp feedback, quick attack speed, and strong topspin control.
