The Timo Boll ALC is the blade of choice for the European Triple Champion, Timo Boll. Timo working with Butterfly’s technicians, helped design his new blade which offers a touch more speed than his previous model but still allows for the production of the heavy topspin strokes Timo is known for.
Using his new blade along with Butterfly’s new Tenergy rubbers, Timo successfully defended all three of his Titles at the 2008 European Championships. Timo plays fair and wins and so can you. The Timo Boll ALC offers the maximum blend of speed, heavy spin, and Control.

The balance is excellent and there's no weak point at all.
Since it has a special material built in, the speed is beyond reproach,
and it flexes nicely so spin grabs well too.
It's a blade where you can totally understand why players all over the world use it.
I'd really want advanced players to try this one at least once.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch

I've used it for about three months now, and the stability is outstanding, and the amount of spin isn't bad either.
Like everyone else has written, the feel is a bit on the hard side.

The feel is fairly hard.
It's a well-balanced, manageable blade. It's not overly bouncy,
but it's not dead either.
I think it's a great recommendation for intermediate players!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch

It's a well-balanced, easy-to-use blade.
It doesn't bounce excessively, so the short game and serves are easy to handle.
But you can also drive straight through the ball with plenty of room to spare.
The feel is maybe a bit on the hard side.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch

Celestial poles (Experience: ４〜５ years) More than I expected.....

Maybe it's because the surface ply is stiffer, but it felt harder than the Zhang Jike, and the straight grip was kind of angular and awkward to hold.
That said, I think the match with tension rubbers is outstanding, so I'd really recommend this blade to people using Tenergy or Vega.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch

Now that the Spirit is no longer available, I can't find anything that beats this blade.
It's perfect at everything — drives, blocks, the short game, all of it!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch
