About Blocker

Pimplepark Blocker is a 2018 5 ply wood table tennis blade made in Germany. It is ITTF-approved, classed allround (ALL), and uses an all-wood layup with no synthetic fibre — more dwell and a clearer wood feel.

Factory figures: typical weight 80 g, thickness 6.6 mm. Handles listed: Flared (FL), Straight (ST), Anatomic (AN). Construction label All wood (5 ply wood). Balanced allround play is the intended game.

Combined index: speed 68, control 94, stiffness 50 (official mapping 68 / 94 / 50). All-wood blades in this speed band are usually chosen for dwell and placement rather than raw kick.

Community score 8.2 / 10 from 4 reviews. Indicative European street price €42. Compare Blocker with other all wood ALL blades on TableTennisReview.

Handles

Handles listed for this SKU: Flared (FL), Straight (ST), Anatomic (AN). Handle shape does not change the ply recipe, weight class or Combined index.

  • Flared (FL)
  • Straight (ST)
  • Anatomic (AN)
Flared (FL)
The usual European shakehand handle. The flare fills the palm and locks the blade in; it does not change the ply recipe.
Straight (ST)
A straight handle is easier to rotate in the hand — the usual pick for combination rackets and some two-wing loopers who change grip mid-rally.
Anatomic (AN)
An anatomic handle follows the palm. Same wood as FL/ST on the same SKU; pick it if that shape already fits.
