Dr. Neubauer Matador Hybrid Carbon

Matador Hybrid Carbon is the new addition to our famous Matador  blade series. It is the blade used by our top sponsored player Luka Mladenovic (Luxemburg, World Ranked #86 in July 2024) and was specially developed for his type of game: It offers highest speed for topspin attack with inverted and surprising effectiveness with pimple-out and Anti Spin rubber.

This OFF+ blade is composed of a layer of Hybrid Aramid Carbon on the forehand and a layer of Texalium on the backhand side, situated just beneath the outer ply. The outer plies are unchanged and still offer a rather hard touch, yet with good control.

Matador Hybrid Carbon is a very fast and stiff blade providing a "direct" ball feeling. It enables to produce a highly aggressive attacking game with inverted or offensive short pimple rubber. Both slower loops and hard power topspins can be produced at ease. The Hybrid Aramid Carbon fiber material on the forehand side guarantees highest speed and a maximum of spin, while the Texalium on the backhand provides more control.

Like all other blades from the Matador series the new Matador Hybrid Carbon is an excellent match for offensive pimple-out rubber and frictionless Anti Spin, producing a sinking ball and excellent spin reversal respectively.

This makes it a great weapon for a powerful modern attacking game.
