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.

Trinity Seven (Experience: 2〜3 years) The all-round blade!

When you hit with it, the ball holds well right away, it flies just the right amount, and control is easy on top of that.
With tension rubbers, if you brush the ball lightly it lands consistently deep, right at the very edge of the table,
and I think the character changes depending on what rubber you pair it with.
All in all, it's the kind of all-round blade you go with when you can't decide -
'if in doubt, pick this one!'Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

Right after switching, I wasn't used to it and it felt heavy, so I couldn't put spin on the ball and ended up overshooting sometimes, but lately I've gotten used to it, mistakes have gone down, and it feels really easy to use now.

This is a really wonderful blade!
I have tacky rubber on my forehand,
and both spin and speed are great, plus the feel is really nice too!
That said, every once in a while the ball flies off in a weird way.
It's great from close to the table through mid-distance,
but once you get further back it starts falling short on distance,
so I'd really recommend it for people who play a bit further from the table!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I've been using this for two years. At first the feel was hard and it seemed like it would be difficult to draw a nice arc, but the wood has gradually softened up, and now it's really easy to handle. Since it's arylate carbon, it holds the ball well and gives decent speed. I think it suits people who defend from away from the table and then close in with a counter.
Topspin drives against backspin are the easiest thing to do with it, I think. It really grabs the ball, and you can go for a finishing shot in one hit.
Definitely give it a try.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

There's no technique I found hard to pull off.
Topspin drives, loops, and speed shots all land even with a fairly loose swing.
All the short-game techniques - stops, pushes, flicks, chiquita - are stable too.
Blocks feel great and snap back nicely as long as you hold them properly. Though if you're not careful, the ball tends to sink in too much and fly off quite often.
From mid-distance you need a bit more power, but just to get it on the table it's easy since it draws a nice arc.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I borrowed a friend's and tried it out - it really holds the ball well and there wasn't any technique that felt hard to do. Control was easy too, and even when my shot was a bit off, it
still landed on the table.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

Pretty great!
Since the carbon is inner, control is easy and it gives your game a lot of stability!
On top of that, it puts spin on the ball and gives you speed too, so I recommend it!
I also personally like the design, so I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a cool-looking blade! It doesn't pair that well with tacky rubbers though.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft
