Someone who can not sleep even if sleepy (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Not too hard, not too soft — a great blade

My relatives gave me money for my birthday, so I bought this.
Rubbers
· Forehand (black): Spin Art (max thickness)
· Backhand (red): Air-Loc Astro M (max thickness)
Glue
· Free Chack
Weight is 85g (official spec is 90 ±5)
It feels more ZLC-ish than ALC.
Basic techniques
· On the forehand, even light hits vibrate my hand a little. The backhand doesn't vibrate.
· Topspin drives come in fast with a low arc, deep on the table. My opponents seemed to have a hard time handling them.
· The push bites the ball surprisingly well.
· The chiquita is easy to put spin on, but since the arc is low, I kept missing into the net.
· Serves have solid spin. I think going a bit longer works better than short.
Overall
· The short game is easy to play. Drives have a low arc. I think a rubber with more arc suits the backhand better.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

The only other outer-carbon blade I've used is the Zexgear Out, so I'm comparing to that.
The feel seems similar. This one makes more of a knock-knock kind of sound.
Overall, with a soft touch the bounce is more restrained, and with a hard impact it bounces back solidly.
On drives, it's slightly easier to get spin than the Zexgear Out, but it's a bit behind on speed.
For blocks and counters, I personally felt this one was easier to use.
For the short game too, I felt this one was easier to use and easier to put spin on.
If you want an outer-carbon blade but also want stability, I'd recommend this one.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Lucky (Experience: ６〜１０ years) A safe choice

I feel like this is the most plain, understated blade in the Carbonado series.
The speed is right in the middle — not too fast, not too slow — and since the ball doesn't fly off too much, it's easy to put spin on and the short game was stable too.
It has excellent overall balance, and while it was hard to punch through with one shot, it let me take the upper hand in rallies.It's a blade without any major standout feature, so I don't think there's much reason to specifically pick this one over others...
That said, I do like the grip design — it has a premium look to it! The white plate gives it a nice touch.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Takuto (Experience: ２〜３ years) I used tacky rubber

This is my impression using a tacky rubber — nasty, heavy-arc shots go in one after another. It doesn't produce much speed, but thanks to that, you can easily pull off counters and monster drives that drop right at the net.

Among carbon blades, this one doesn't bounce all that much, but if you're coming from an all-wood blade you might still think "whoa, what is this." The amount of carbon in it isn't that high, so I think it's easy to use for spin-based techniques like the topspin drive.

It flew just the right amount and landed on the table nicely.
Paired with G-1, it made third-ball attacks really easy to pull off.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness hard
