Classic Carbon Graphite Shinai - Hasegawa

This Classic Carbon Graphite Shinai model uses a technology developed by the Hasegawa company and commercialized in 1985. Hugely successful worldwide, this Shinai is composed of bamboo core covered with carbon fiber slats reinforced with a synthetic polymer. As a result, we get the most durable Shinai currently on the market, extremely resilient to impacts but significantly less flexible than traditional bamboo made models. This lack of flexibility makes rebound techniques more complicated to place during practice, which is a point that has to be taken into account according to your style. Due to its carbon fiber conception, this model does not need any particular maintenance ritual, proving to be an ideal choice for practitioners wearing a lot of Shinai out over their training sessions.

This classic Shinai has a standard balance. Although the carbon fiber conception of this weapon prevents it from any splitting or cracking issue, users are not exempted from equipment verification before every training session.

This product is available in size 37, 38 and 39 adapted for men or women. When the assembled option is selected, this Shinai is provided with a Tsukagawa made from tanned leather (grip handle) and a white Tsuru.
