The Arylate Carbon fibers are located closer to the core than with non-layer blades, which leads to a softer touch and stunning feel.
Arylate-Carbon fibers dampen vibration and allow for dynamic play and precise placement.

I switched to this from the Acoustic, and I find loop drives easier to hit than before. As long as I don't put too much force into it, almost everything lands on the table, lol.

This was my first time switching from an all-wood blade to a composite blade. But the feel on contact didn't feel off at all, and it was really easy to hit with. The best part was that it doesn't fly too far. I'd definitely recommend giving it a try.

This blade is carbon, but it's easy to use, and I didn't feel any inconvenience from fine techniques all the way through topspin rallies.

This was my first composite blade, and it's now my backup blade.
The first thing I noticed was that you can hit consecutive drives with real stability.
It gave me the impression of the ball coming back in a nice high arc, gripped and carried well.
Spin is easy to generate too, but I'd like a bit more power and speed.
The downsides, which vary depending on the rubber, are the weight and the feel on contact. A dull sensation comes through to your hand easily, which I'm not too fond of.
Blocks and short-game shots felt relatively easy to do though!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

This blade doesn't have any standout traits like speed. But it does have stability.
No matter what you're doing, nothing feels awkward.
Also, it's light, so you can put on whatever rubber you like.
I'd recommend it to players who play close-to-mid-distance and want to swing drives without making mistakes.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

It's a real all-around blade!
I used it with short pips on the backhand and it was super easy to use! Above all, the feel on contact is fantastic! It gives you a real sense of gripping the ball, which felt reassuring to play with! It's easy to put spin on the ball and easy to control!
There's nothing really bad about it, but if I had to say something, it's that it doesn't produce much distance. Not that it produces none, of course! But when I backed off the table for topspin rallies, at my level the speed didn't come out much and I got pushed around by my opponent.
Still, the ball comes out heavy, and for close-to-mid-distance play it's no problem at all — I think it's a fantastic blade both price-wise and performance-wise!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I borrowed this from a friend.
My first impression was that it holds the ball really well. I normally use the Timo Boll ALC, but with this one I felt the ball sinks into the sponge more easily (on the forehand).
It even made me think, "maybe I should've gotten this one instead," lol.
How about it as an entry point into ALC blades?Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Soft
