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.

There's no technique in particular that feels hard to do - everything is easy at about an 80-point level. The feel is especially good, with just the right amount of feedback coming through to my hand.

I switched over from a beginner blade and this thing is insane!
My backhand feels way easier than before!
Speed is the same as or even better than a 7-ply all-wood blade. It only takes about 3 days to get used to the spin.
The only thing is I think I prefer the sound of an all-wood blade.
Other than that, this is seriously a god-tier bladeOverall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

What's great about this blade is how stable it is. Whatever technique you throw at it, it stays stable and lands on the table. Even on third-ball attacks it lifts the ball up properly and gets it in. You get really fast speed even without swinging all the way through. It puts a lot of spin on the ball too - topspin rallies and drives against backspin are both easy to put spin on, and the ball drops down with spin and lands on the table. Even short-game techniques land with good quality without needing to hit hard. Pair it with a slightly harder rubber and you can hit even higher-quality shots. The one thing to watch out for (the downside) with this blade is not backing up too far. If you go back too far, the ball won't carry well and control becomes really hard. If you keep lobbing from way back, you'll end up losing the point. It's best to keep lobbing to a minimum. If you do end up lobbing, it might help to follow up with a counter whenever you get the chance. I'd recommend this blade to people who want to finish points on the third or fifth ball, or who play a very aggressive style. It's fairly pricey, but for this price, this level of quality is top-tier. It's a wonderful blade that can deliver a stable balance in any situation. I really encourage everyone to give it a try.

This blade raises my whole game up a level.
I used to use an outer-carbon blade, but in matches I'd tense up and make a lot of overshooting mistakes. Since switching to inner carbon, my shots somehow manage to land on the table now.
Also, since the ball leaves the blade at just the right, slightly slow pace when I hit a topspin drive, I feel like I can really brush the ball properly.
The only downside is that, since my hands are small, the grip feels big to me, and it took a while to get used to it.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I was using an outer-carbon blade and found it a bit hard to handle, so I switched to this one, and it's really great. If you're like me and find outer-carbon blades difficult, I really think you should give this a try. Speed, balance, and control are all top-tier.

When I first started using it, I honestly couldn't tell what was so good about it
Maybe that's the whole point lol. Before I knew it I was pulling off serves, pushes, drives, all without any trouble lol
Also, it pairs well with any rubber. It's like the model student that brings out just the right amount of whatever rubber you put on it lol
And this is the biggest thing for me, but the grip looks really cool...!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I find it really easy to use
Especially the short-game techniques
Stops and pushes, and of course topspin drives and smashes, are all easy to hit too
I think it's the perfect blade for getting into special-material bladesOverall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft
