Since it's marketed as having "insane power," I nervously tried it on the forehand with Vega Elite, but overall the speed, initial speed, spin, and distance are all well balanced and it feels easy to use. Everyone else's ratings for everything besides speed were oddly low, so I was a bit worried, but I think the other qualities are excellent too. There isn't much flex, but I'd say it still generates plenty of spin. Control isn't bad either - I can place shots exactly where I aim. It might be the fastest among the Fire Fall / Quartet lineup. Preference may vary depending on your playing style and rubber pairing, but for me it left a strong enough impression that I could use it as my main blade. It also paired well with Hexer on the backhand.

It's less about flying far and more about having good initial speed, a blade for close-to-the-table play. For close-to-the-table play it suits not just a fast-attack style but a topspin style too. You can still hit from further back, but I felt this blade's defining trait, that initial speed, really comes alive when you play close to the table. It just barely holds the ball, and the short game is no problem either. I can't find any real flaws, it's a blade that keeps a high level of balance. It also has a decent amount of weight, making it ideal for short pips on the backhand. If you tried to buy an inner blade with the same performance from company B, it would cost about twice as much.

I've got Hurricane NEO3 on my forehand and MX-P on my backhand. Hitting both flat gives you this ball that whips through the air and then suddenly dips down. It's a very lively blade, so I'd recommend pairing it with tacky rubber or something that doesn't fly too much.

Bought a Firefall VC FL, 86g.
<Feel> Not too hard. It felt similar to Butterfly's SK7. Without enough power behind the shot, though, I didn't get that same grabbing feel you get with SK7.
<Speed> Quite fast. Fast whether you hit it flat or catch it thin.
<Spin> If you can swing through properly, it grips fine.
That said, when I hit it more flatly, the carbon feel came through strongly and it was harder to put spin on.
On the other hand, chopping felt easy to do.
<Grip> Compared to Nittaku's Active 7, it's a bit thinner. It has a rounder shape.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

shinkey12 (Experience: ２〜３ years) Stiff blade, great spin on serve

Kihara-senshu and Yanma-san from Goblins both use this, so I bought one too. I'd only ever used soft blades like Innerforce ZLF and Korbel before, so it took me a while to get used to it. Serving got easier with this blade, and I feel like it even improved my YG serve
Forehand
As expected from a fast, high-bounce blade, the ball flies pretty flat. But it still gives you just enough arc to clear the net and land deep in your opponent's court. Even when my feet couldn't keep up and I could only block the ball back, it still reliably reached the other side, that's definitely a stiff blade for you.Backhand
The ball-holding feel is just right, so if you swing through properly you get a fast, spinny shot. The chiquita is also insanely fast.It's cheaper than other companies' high-bounce blades, so if you're not particular about brand, I figured this one works just fine

Maybe because my particular blade was on the lighter side, the speed was moderate and well balanced. The ball leaves the blade quickly with a lower arc, and you don't get much of a grabbing sensation, but the resulting shots still have plenty of spin and power. As for the feel, there's a clear difference between the soft "poku-poku" wood sound on light hits and the crisp, hard feel on power shots, opinions on that will probably be split.

A blade that combines stability with destructive power
I normally use an outer ALC blade.
The hype was "insane power" for this VC, but since it's an inner carbon blade, it doesn't have quite the same bounce as an outer.
That said, compared to wood-heavy blades like Innerforce ALC that most people use, the feel is harder and springier, so it didn't feel too different to me.
The bounce over the table is well controlled, so you won't pop your blocks up either.
It's a bit thick and has some weight to it, so smashes definitely have good initial speed and carry through - there's real power there.
You can hit hard shots from mid-distance too, but overall I'd say this is a close-to-the-table blade for fast attackers, one that lets you play the short game with fewer mistakes than your opponent while still producing powerful finishing shots.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard
