1. The Blade Thickness
Its blade is made of high-quality wood and ITTF approved competition rubbers. If you’re an all-around player this racket is perfect for you, as this can give you a good balance speed, control, and nice game spin.
The Killerspin Jet 500 is a little heavier and thicker than Killerspin Jet 600. Its blade has a thickness of 6.7mm which provides an extra power over your play and has a 5 complimentary wood ply layers.
2. High-Tech Premium Rubber
No matter how good the blade is, without a premium rubber this paddle won’t perform well. The Jet 500 comes with Nitrx-4z rubber, a high tension rubber which approved by ITTF.
The top sheet of Nitrx-4z can produce an exceptional grip on the ball which gives the ball a heavy spin and not only that, with this sticky rubber you can easily counter the spinny shots of your opponent. You can also take advantage of heavy spin serves.
3. The Ergonomic Flared Handle
There’s a tendency that when you make a hard shot the paddle will slip onto your hand. The Killerspin Jet 500 handle can prevent that to happen, with its flared handle you can make a good grip regardless of your hand size. You can adjust your grip up or down in such a way you’re comfortable with it.
