Eiger 

There is the Himalayan mountain range that refuses human challenges. The Eiger North Face, located in the Bernese Alps of Switzerland, is known as one of the most famous and challenging climbing routes in the world. While it stands at a height of 3,967 meters, which isn’t particularly high, the North Face itself is composed of a vertical rock wall that stretches for a staggering 1.8 kilometers. Due to its extreme difficulty and harsh natural conditions, Eiger has earned the nickname "The Wall of Death." The rapidly changing weather and unstable rocks that frequently cause falling debris present significant dangers to climbers. Many people, both domestically and internationally, may have heard the name Eiger as a brand name. That brand is none other than "The North Face."​

The name Eiger embodies the theme of humanity’s relentless challenge against nature’s refusal. Just as the North Face of the Himalayas presents a formidable challenge, developing the Eiger racket has been a great challenge for Nexy. Honoring the many climbers who lost their lives while ascending the Eiger North Face, and just as they relentlessly climbed despite nature's resistance, Nexy has persistently taken on the challenge of creating the Eiger theme. There is a reason why the Eiger blade has taken so long to be released. The Eiger product is currently being manufactured in Korea. The initial Eiger product was designed to be slightly thicker, with a total thickness of about 6.8mm, compared to the final product currently in production. The central layer was somewhat thicker, and the carbon layer was slightly thinner than it is in the current version. However, during testing, we decided that it would be better to reduce the thickness slightly and to make the carbon layer a bit thicker.​

Through this process, Eiger was able to fully test the efficacy of a new adhesive method that is not found in existing products. We experimented with adjusting the elasticity of the glue by changing the chemicals, applying a method that increases elasticity without adding weight. Additionally, considerable time was invested in developing machinery to enhance the product's consistency. The grip area features wood imported from Italy, giving it a more distinct color. Now, the final result is ready to be unveiled.The Eiger product has been tested by several players sponsored by TableTennis.com. Among the sponsored players was one who previously used the W968, but was so captivated by the Eiger that they switched to it. Even now, many players are transitioning to the Eiger. Now it’s your turn to try it for yourself. Thank you.
