Blade construction
Estimated7W+2 Dyneema Carbon · Inner
9 plies · Limba surface · Dyneema Carbon inner fibre · Ayous core · 6.35 mm total
One blade, drawn as technical linework at real shakehand proportions. The laminated edge along the crown and right rim exposes every ply boundary in the stack. Edge depth is illustrative because physical veneer thickness is not published.
Limba
Outer ply · layers 1 and 9
Softer touch · Longer dwell
Kiri
Medial ply · layers 2 and 8
Lower weight · Controlled rebound
Ayous
Medial ply · Core · layers 3, 5 and 7
Lower weight · Wider sweet spot
Dyneema Carbon
Fibre layer · layers 4 and 6
Stiff and fast · Elastic catch
Stack order — face A to face B
- 01LimbaOuter ply
Soft, open-grained outer veneer — long dwell, a wooden feel and easy spin on slow strokes.
- 02KiriMedial ply
Paulownia core — extremely light, damping the stack and slowing the blade down for control.
- 03AyousMedial ply
Very light medial or core wood — keeps the blade low in weight and widens the sweet spot.
- 04Dyneema CarbonFibre layer
Carbon woven with Dyneema — stiff and fast, but with a softer, more elastic catch than pure carbon.
- 05Ayous — coreCore
Very light medial or core wood — keeps the blade low in weight and widens the sweet spot.

Partially resolved · 9 of 9 plies with published material · stack order unconfirmed
Note: Nine physical layers: seven wood plus a fibre pair near the core. TIBHAR confirms the layer count; the limba, kiri and ayous species come from a single database entry that itself counts only seven plies, so the order is an estimate.
About this blade
TIBHAR Fortino Performance is a 9-ply blade built around Dyneema Carbon fibre placed inner, with Limba on the playing surface and a Ayous core. Limba in the outer layer: Soft, open-grained outer veneer — long dwell, a wooden feel and easy spin on slow strokes. Kiri in the medial layer: Paulownia core — extremely light, damping the stack and slowing the blade down for control. Ayous in the core: Very light medial or core wood — keeps the blade low in weight and widens the sweet spot. Dyneema Carbon in the fibre layer: Carbon woven with Dyneema — stiff and fast, but with a softer, more elastic catch than pure carbon. Physically it measures 6.35 mm thick, around 86 g. TIBHAR positions it for off- play.
TTDNA ratings
NormalizedPerformance
Construction
Material properties
Playing profile
A TTDNA blade rating measures how much of the named characteristic a blade has. For descriptive rows — flex, stiffness, vibration, head heaviness, weight, thickness, carbon feel, softness, technique requirement, spin sensitivity — a higher number means more, not better.
TTDNA ratings are normalized comparison values, not laboratory measurements. They are built from published specifications, technical sources and structured product evidence, converted to one 0–100 scale. Where a directly comparable measurement is unavailable, the value is an evidence-based estimate. Overall-style scores are composites of several characteristics. Methodology
