It feels similar to the Viscaria.
Dignics 09C, Dignics 05, or Tenergy 05 pair well with it as rubbers.
Definitely a good blade.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

It bounces like crazy.
I'm using Dignics 80 on my forehand, but there's just no way my drives are landing. The blade is very hard.
So until I buy my next rubber, I'm using DNA rubber on my forehand instead.
So if you admire Lin Gaoyuan and think
"Oh, it's cheap!!"
and buy it on a whim, I think you might end up a little disappointed.
That said, the spin is outstanding!!
If you pair it with a soft German rubber or something in the Fastarc line, you can get solid drives in and score points.
I think it's better to think it through carefully before you buy.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Forehand hitting was pretty good, but when I hit drives, the trajectory comes out flat and straight. The feel was nice though.
I'd recommend this to advanced players with a solid physical foundation.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

I also have the Timo Boll ALC (FL), and the feel and grip sensation are pretty much the same.
The grip design looks cool, so I'd recommend this one over the Viscaria or Zhang Jike ALC.
The AN grip is nice too, but personally I feel the FL fits my hand better.
Since it's made of outer material, opinions will vary, but the speed & control performance is solid, so it's a blade you won't regret buying.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

I switched to this blade from my old SK7α.
First off, this blade is easier to get spin on than my old one. That said, the feel was better on the SK7α.
When I first started using this blade I wasn't quite used to it, but once I got the hang of it, it became a really reliable partner.
I felt like it's a tough blade to start with if it's your first special-material blade.
Anyway, this is an amazing blade. I'd recommend it to people who want to step up their game or who feel like their current blade isn't quite enough.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

This was my first carbon blade, so at first I wasn't quite used to it. But once I got used to it, it bounces well and it's easier to get spin on than my previous SK7α — I thought it was a really good blade.
That said, I don't think I'd recommend it to people trying a special-material blade for the first time.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

Metathra (Experience: 6〜10 years) Different from other outer ALCs?

I was curious since it's a new release, so I bought it.
Compared to other outer ALC blades, it doesn't bounce as much and the feel wasn't great... maybe I got a bad unit?
Other outer ALC blades tend to snap the ball off crisply, but the Lin Gaoyuan felt like it absorbed the ball a bit and didn't fly as much.
That said, compared to other outer ALC blades, it lets you get spin on more consistently.If you're using an outer ALC and want a bit more stability, or feel like your current one flies too much, I think this one is perfect for you!
