The STIGA Inspira Plus Table Tennis Blade is a premium 5+2 outer-carbon offensive blade designed for modern players who demand speed, stability, precision, and excellent ball feel. Associated with Chinese world champion Wang Manyu, the Inspira Plus combines STIGA’s innovative ARC Carbon technology with a relatively thin 5.6 mm construction, creating a fast and responsive blade that retains the touch and feedback traditionally associated with STIGA’s wood blades.

At the heart of the Inspira Plus is STIGA ARC, a specially engineered carbon-fiber technology designed to combine different fiber characteristics within the composite structure. Rather than simply increasing stiffness and rebound, ARC Carbon is developed to provide stability and power while reducing excessive vibration. The result is a more refined impact feeling that gives offensive players the speed of an outer-carbon blade without making the blade feel excessively hard or unforgiving.

The blade’s playing characteristics are particularly well suited to the fast, technically demanding style of modern table tennis. On the forehand, it provides strong support for opening loops, powerful topspin attacks, and continuous counter-looping. On the backhand, the quick response of the outer-carbon construction makes it effective for flicks, fast topspins, counters, and rapid transitions close to the table.

The connection with Wang Manyu also reflects the type of game for which the Inspira Plus is suited. Her modern attacking style combines powerful topspin with exceptional backhand quality, quick transitions, and the ability to maintain pressure during high-speed rallies. The Inspira Plus follows this same performance philosophy, offering the stability and responsiveness required for aggressive two-winged offensive table tennis.
