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.

Even though this blade is an inner blade, for light hits and short-game techniques it's so close to wood you wouldn't even notice there's carbon in it. But when you drive, the carbon kicks in just the right amount to add bounce, making it a really easy blade to use.
Also, for hitting techniques like smashes and flat hits, you get a big benefit from the carbon, so it's really the best of both wood and carbon.
I normally use an all-wood blade, but I could use this without any discomfort. It's a good blade usable from intermediate to advanced players!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

It puts spin on the ball and has good speed too, so I'm very satisfied!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

Spin control is flawless.
If you're not bothered by the slight lack of speed and weakness away from the table, I felt like this is an all-around blade anyone would like.
It bothered me, so I switched to the ZLC, but if you play close to the table, I'd recommend this one.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

I used the ST grip. Weight was 89g
Since it's an inner blade, short-game shots stay on the table, and when you hit hard, the carbon's power comes through. Compared to outer ALC, you can clearly feel the better grip on the ball, so blocks are very stable, and it's a blade that's easy to pair with any rubber.
Also, it's easy to swing considering its weight.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Just the right amount of bounce, and it grips the ball perfectly. It's no exaggeration to call it THE all-around special-material blade. Even with arylate carbon, you can still clearly feel the wood.
When you swing through fully it makes a high-pitched sound, so it's also good for checking your own swing level.
As an interesting use case, you could even use it as a test bench to learn about a rubber's characteristics.

Perfect for switching over from an all-wood blade. This is the blade that comes to mind when you say "inner blade." I think this blade works with any rubber, it doesn't pick and choose. I'd also recommend it to players using short pips on their backhand. The speed is inferior to outer blades, but when you hit hard, the carbon character comes through, and it's easy to put spin on for things like loop drives. There's no technique that's hard to do, and it's the best blade for improving your skills. I really want you to try it at least once. Some people might find the grip a bit thick though.

That characteristic inner ALC feeling of gripping the ball is great
Speed is easy to generate, and spin is easy to put on the ball.
It's stable, so it's a dependable blade.
Personally I'd recommend it to people who want both spin and power but don't want to compromise on stability.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft
