    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    The majority of reviews are highly positive, praising the excellent speed and spin performance from the ZL carbon and the superior ball control unique to inner force technology. However, the hard hitting feel and thick grip are noted as potential drawbacks.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • ZL carbon delivers excellent speed and spin compatibility
    • Inner force's unique ball-gripping sensation ensures high stability
    • Hard hitting feel requires proper impact and ball touch technique
    • Thick grip may be uncomfortable for those with smaller hands
    • Ideal for intermediate to advanced players, compatible with various rubbers
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe racket excellently combines the ball-holding quality of inner force technology with the speed and spin performance of ZL carbon, adapting well to both speed-driven and spin-focused playstyles. Its high stability prevents mishits even under pressure.
    ▽ CriticalThe extremely hard hitting feel demands considerable impact and touch, making it difficult for beginners to handle. The hard feel may not suit everyone's preferences, leading some players to abandon it.

      Close-to-table fast attack (Experience: 4〜5 years) The model used by Franziska

      Player reviews

      I used this at a prefectural tournament. First, even though it's an inner ZLC, it's livelier than I expected — livelier than the manufacturer's stated numbers, I'd say. That said, if you serve with a grazing motion using tacky rubber, the ball lands in the opponent's court with insane spin. Also, even when I was nervous and tensed up more than usual, my smashes and drives still landed in without going long. That sense of security is its strength. Next I want to try pairing it with VICTAS's V>20 as well.

    • (Experience: 6〜10 years) A blade that uses flex and hardness for spin

      Player reviews

      I used the FL89G version.

      The basic blade construction is the same as the Innerforce Layer ZLC. The difference is really just the grip.
      It has the same thick grip shape as the Ovtcharov model, so if you have small hands, be careful.

      As you'd expect from an inner blade, you get that feedback in your hand, but the feel is quite a bit harder than CNF or Inner ALC.
      That said, thanks to the thinner blade and the stiff ZLC, it strikes a nice balance between good flex and low power loss.
      Whether you hit it lightly or hard, you can get the output you're aiming for, but it does require solid impact and good ball touch.

      The feel was too hard for me so I gave up on it, but if you're curious, give it a try.

      Player reviews

      Being a ZLC blade, it really delivers distance and speed — I felt like this is a blade meant for mid-to-far distance play.
      It doesn't really suit playing close to the table, and my impression was that it's harder to put spin on the ball, but the short game felt easy to handle while still having good pop. I think the topspin drive is great if your playing style is built around speed!

      It's a blade made for standard rubber table tennis, but it works just fine for large-ball table tennis too. Compared to other blades made for large ball, it's harder and doesn't have much bounce, but if you swing through properly you get a good shot. Its strength is that you can hit consistently no matter where you're standing, from close to the table to far back.

      Ashiku (Experience: More than 20 years) Well balanced

      Player reviews

      Speed, spin, and balance point all feel well balanced.
      It's not a jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none kind of thing — everything is high level.
      It has plenty of bounce, but it still has that grabbing feel unique to inner blades, and the consistency on serves and loops is amazing.

      I don't know (Experience: 4〜5 years) Overall a good blade

      Player reviews

      This is a shakehand blade, but I actually hold the grip penhold-style. Overall it was a blade that grips the ball well for spin and also puts out plenty of speed. According to the Butterfly website, its speed rating is listed as lower than the Korbel's, but it still has relatively good rebound, and since it's an inner ZLC, it produces strong spin too. The hitting sound was good for smashes and drives, and I think it's also excellent in terms of stability. It's said to be a bit lighter than the Innerforce ZLC, so if you're sensitive to weight, that might be useful to know. The grip is a bit thick and fit perfectly in my hand when held shakehand-style.

      Large Master (Experience: 4〜5 years) An overall excellent blade

      Player reviews

      My first impression is that it's excellently balanced overall. It handles speed-oriented and spin-oriented strokes just fine, and also has excellent control thanks to that distinctive Innerforce feel of momentarily holding the ball. It's also a blade that appeals to just about everyone, since it can bring out close to 100% of the performance of almost any rubber. I think beginners will find it hard to handle because of the bounce, but I'd recommend it to intermediate-to-advanced players looking for stability at a high level.
