Stiga Banda Allround Table Tennis Blade

The Stiga Banda Allround is a classic 5-ply all-wood offensive/all-round blade designed for players of all skill levels—from beginners to intermediate competitors—looking for a balanced combination of control, feel, and versatile performance. With its traditional wood construction, modest weight, and forgiving response, this blade excels at developing technique, refining strokes, and maintaining consistent play across all phases of the game.

Crafted with a limba outer layer and a mix of ayous and kiri inner plies, the Banda Allround delivers a stable, slightly soft feel that enhances ball feedback and touch. This allows players to execute controlled loops, flat drives, and secure blocks with confidence. Its design offers a wide sweet spot and predictable response, making it especially suitable for players still mastering timing, placement, and spin. While not as fast as carbon composite blades, the Banda Allround provides enough power for moderate offensive play while maintaining excellent precision and control in defensive and all-round situations.
