Bought it on Rakuten for 13,564 yen. When I first hit with this blade, I was amazed at how well-balanced it is across the board for developing your overall technique. I think I understand why a certain famous YouTuber praises it so much. It has a material called Hybrid AC placed on the inner layer, and I felt the hitting feel leaned quite close to wood. But when you put more impact into your shot, the Hybrid AC starts to show itself. Also, this blade pairs really well with TIBHAR's Evolution series rubbers. This time I used Evolution MX-D on the forehand and Evolution MX-S on the backhand, and they go together really nicely. MX-D and MX-S are both fairly spin-focused rubbers, so I'd recommend this combo for a playing style that grinds it out with loop drives while mixing in the occasional attack. If I had to name one downside to this combo, it's that you might not get a good shot unless you really commit to the impact. MX-D and MX-S are both on the harder side to begin with. Also, the Hybrid AC Inside itself is a blade that leans quite close to wood. So as I mentioned, I'd recommend this more for someone putting spin on the ball with loop drives than for someone going for one big power shot.

I use it with a Chinese penhold grip. Since it's an inner blade, the bounce is kept moderate, and it feels close to a plain wooden blade. That said, you can still get real speed on hard-impact topspin drives and smashes.

A lot of people pair this with TIBHAR's Evolution series, but
as a test, I tried putting XIOM's Omega VII China (glossy) on the forehand
and DHS's Skyline Neo3 39-degree on the backhand.
When I actually tried hitting with it,
the feel of the topspin drive was really satisfying.
Even though the forehand is the glossy sheet, I was still able to sink the ball into the sponge properly before releasing it.
For hitting backspin, the weight is set toward the outer edge, so you can swing without wasting effort.
On the backhand, I love the sound of the wood when you hit the ball.
This side is also easy to swing, and I could really feel the backhand topspin going in deep.
However, since I tend to take huge swings and the rubber is on the springy side, I hardly ever missed into the net, but I often overshot on topspin rallies and backspin attacks.
Overall, it's an easy-to-use blade where you can generate impact with a light swing, and I could rally just fine even with tacky rubber.
That said, I felt like pairing it with the Evolution series brings out this blade's strengths even more.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

Bought from a table tennis mail-order shop, 86g.
The feel is soft. At first I put on a soft rubber with good grip on the ball, but the feel for hitting against backspin wasn't great, so I switched to the harder Revolution MX-D from the same company, and the match was excellent!
If you can hit with strong impact, I think pairing it with a harder rubber like MX-D will bring out great performance.If you're not confident putting a lot of impact into your shots, a softer rubber should make it easier to handle. Since the feel is on the soft side, I think it's easy to control overall.

I switched from the Arnaid outer blade. It uses a special material, but since it's an inner blade, I think the ball-holding feel is quite good. When you hit hard, the special material makes it fly, while for the short game and serves it stays stable without flying too much. My forehand rubber is somewhat tacky, so it gets tough once I get pushed back from the table, but for playing up close, AC beats ZC. My backhand feel in particular improved a lot.

Weight 86g, used with max thickness rubber on both sides.
Light hits: feels similar to a wood blade, felt soft, no different from a plain wood racket.
Topspin drive: spin grabs incredibly well and stays stable. When you put more impact into it, the Hybrid AC shows itself and you can hit shots with real speed.
Hard hits: it was easier to control when I met the ball a bit more inside.
Short game: it hits with the same stability as a wood blade.
I thought this blade is really easy to use and would appeal to just about anyone. However, I get the impression you won't get a good shot unless you commit to a strong impact. In that respect it feels about the same as a bouncy plywood blade. Also, even in topspin rallies from away from the table it needed quite a bit of impact, and my shots ended up landing shallow. So I'd recommend this stability-focused blade for players who play close to mid-distance from the table.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft
