      Red dog Great balance, above all

      Player reviews

      After using it for over six months. My forehand drive lands solidly, and my backhand drive flows in smoothly.
      If you study your backhand smash and have a certain level of skill, you can generate a lot of power with it. This rubber combination is
      really good. I'd recommend it to intermediate-to-advanced players. If you're a beginner who just started in your first year of junior high, it's probably still a bit early for you. It's a really great blade.

      I want to improve stability (Experience: 4〜5 years) I think more people should be using this

      Player reviews

      I'd been using the Innerforce Layer ALC, but the feel on contact didn't suit me, so I went back to this blade I used to use.
      Once I switched to a 5-ply, it bounces quite a bit. It has that stability that's characteristic of 5-ply blades, and the feeling is more like gripping the ball and carrying it forward rather than just flicking it off. Since going back to this blade, I've made fewer unforced errors and have been able to attack with confidence.

      This is a really stable blade.
      Both attacking and defending are easy with it — it's the best blade I've used so far.

      Indomitable glasses (Experience: 2〜3 years) I wrote a review before, but

      Player reviews

      What I wrote before wasn't detailed enough, so I'm writing again.
      First of all, the shots are just really stable. Since it's on the softer side, you can consistently put spin on the ball.
      If you're the type who just wants to keep the ball in play, a softer rubber works well,
      and if you want power too, a harder rubber works — I think it goes well with any rubber.
      It's an all-purpose blade that fits well with everyone's own playing style.
      Highly recommended!

      Hiroaki (Experience: 4〜5 years) Shows the best of a 5-ply.

      Player reviews

      Up until now I'd been using an outer-composite blade, but I felt the ball left too fast and flew too far. Also, since I'm a player who plays relatively close to the table, I figured it didn't need to bounce that much, so I decided to go for this blade.
      At first I thought it wouldn't bounce at all, but when I hit hard shots, it actually bounced quite a bit and was easy to put spin on, producing some nasty shots. So for a 5-ply blade, I found it bounces more than I expected.
      On top of that, it has that plywood-specific ball-holding feel and flexes nicely, which improved my touch over the table and made it easy to control both hard hits and soft touches.
      My overall impression of this blade is that, besides being easy to use, I really liked how it bounces nicely for a plywood blade.
      Thanks to this blade, I feel like I've rediscovered the appeal of plywood blades.
      If I had to say one thing, the feel on contact is a bit soft, so I thought it'd be nice if it were a little harder while keeping this same performance.

      Indomitable glasses (Experience: 2〜3 years) Spin-friendly, true to a 5-ply

      Player reviews

      I switched over from the All-Round Evolution,
      so here's a comparison.
      This one has more bounce.
      My drives, which used to fall short, now
      dig in deep on the other side.
      I felt a slightly harder rubber pairs
      better with it.

      Player reviews

      Being a 5-ply blade, this is aimed at all-around players who prioritize stability. It also has good control, so I think it's an easy blade to use for anyone from beginners to advanced players. It's a blade I can strongly recommend to anyone who prioritizes stability.
