    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    This outer carbon blade delivers excellent speed and drive distance while maintaining ease of grip and playability through thoughtful handle design. Widely praised by advanced to intermediate players, its performance varies significantly based on rubber compatibility, particularly with sticky-type and Kyohyo-series rubbers.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • High drive distance and speed from outer carbon material
    • Carefully designed grip shape ensures comfortable handling
    • Outstanding compatibility with sticky rubbers
    • Excellent balance between ball retention and control
    • Facilitates short-range techniques like flicks and chiquita
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveIt grabs yet flies smoothly and is extremely easy to use. Back-hand driving with spin rotation is particularly comfortable, more straightforward swing-through than Viscaria with smoother shot transitions.
    ▽ CriticalDifficult for beginners or under-trained players to master. Fast ball release and hardness require adjustment for serve and short-range techniques. Not recommended for those lacking confidence in swing speed or technique fundamentals.

      It has that bounce unique to ALC, and it's a blade that's easy to control too. Swing it and the ball flies, but you can still control it properly.

      I compared it side by side with the ZLC version, and within the Zhang Jike series this one seems to prioritize stability over bounce, maybe?
      But it's still arylate carbon, so of course it still has plenty of bounce.
      Pairing it with Tenergy 64 felt just right.
