I wanted to review the Ovtcharov True Carbon but couldn't get one, so I'm reviewing this successor version instead (same thing, just a different name and design). I have untuned Hurricane 3 on both sides.
Drive against topspin
Easy to do, gives proper speed and of course spin too
Drive against backspin
A speed drive that blows straight through in one shot is obviously asking too much, but loop drives and the like get proper spin and stay stable
Drive over the table
I only tried it on receives I could aim and on floating third balls or close-to-the-table rallies, but it's quite stable and there were plenty of times I could put it away in one shot
Push
Grips the ball well; it's carbon but it never flies off wild, and it doesn't kill the tackiness at all
Block
Easy to do
Hit (meet the ball)
Not quite as much distance as with tension rubber, but it's there — not fast, but not too slow either
Flick
I can do it, but my pushes are so good I rarely use it; the sweeping flick was also pretty good
Overall
Unlike most other outer blades, it doesn't kill the spin quality of tacky rubber, and it gives good speed on top of that. The control was excellent too, of course.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

People say it's similar to Butterfly's Viscaria, and I'd agree. The feel is on the hard side, but it still grips the ball well — though that's only true for outer-carbon blades like this. Compared to inner-ply blades it's definitely harder and doesn't hold the ball as much. It's really a blade for advanced players. The good points are that it's relatively light, so you can still swing it even with spin-oriented tension rubbers on both sides, and it's about 10,000 yen cheaper than the Viscaria, so it's a reasonable compromise.
