    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly rated as an aggressive, fast-flying carbon racket, but the thick grip and blade thickness make table techniques difficult and unsuitable for smaller players.

    • Stable and reliable blocking
    • Thick grip and blade
    • Difficult table techniques
    • Ideal for front-court aggressive play
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveLightweight and easy to swing with stable blocking. Offers speed and power for aggressive front-court play. Excellent all-around stability.
    ▽ CriticalThick grip and blade make it difficult for players with smaller hands. Table techniques are challenging with the ball floating, requiring practice. Control is somewhat lacking.

      It's a strange blade - the ball leaves quickly, yet it's still stable. Even with that quick release, you can still hit drives with a solid arc. Blocking is stable too. It's strange how it's fast yet still easy to control. That said, I don't think tacky rubbers pair well with this blade.
      I'd recommend this blade for people who want both speed and control, or who like to attack from mid-distance.

      Butterfly believer (Experience: ４〜５ years) Combines both offense and defense

      Player reviews

      You can attack whether you're close to the table or further back, and on top of that the stability is outstanding.
      Blocking is stable too, so all-round players can use it as well.
      So if you go with a stability-focused rubber like Tenergy 80,
      you can bring out the best of the Galeidia ALC.
      By the way, personally I think the blade itself is lighter compared to other blades.

      jump (Experience: ４〜５ years) It's alright

      Player reviews

      This racket really flies.
      Paired with something like Tenergy, it turns into a real speed monster.
      Also, the ball leaves this racket pretty quickly.
      Blocking is perfect. But the short game is tricky. Since it flies so well, it pairs great with tacky rubbers. Either way, you can get incredible drive speed out of it.

      Player reviews

      The feel is soft (for a carbon blade).
      It doesn't fly too much and generates good spin, so it works close to the table too.
      I have Tenergy 64 on both sides, but I think Tenergy 80 would work well too.

      A (Experience: ２〜３ years) Pretty good!

      Player reviews

      The feel when hitting is a bit hard! Of course it's great for attacking,
      and blocking is easy too! It flies well, so even shots from far back go in! Sometimes if you misjudge the power you'll overshoot, but overall I'd recommend it.

      It's light and easy to swing, and it doesn't wobble when blocking, so it's really easy to use. Smashes have plenty of power too. Serves are easy to put spin on. It's great for all kinds of play.

      Very fast and easy to use!
      Seems to pair well with harder rubbers
      The feel when hitting is similar to the Fly At Carbon
