I switched to this from a hardcore outer carbon blade. I'll review it by technique, comparing it against my sense of outer carbon and 5-ply wood.
[Light shots]
- Feels close to 5-ply wood and doesn't fly on its own.
- Gentle enough that even beginners can handle it.
[Blocks]
- Not very stable. Any slight unevenness in your contact shows up clearly compared to other blades — it hits the net or goes long, which is a downside typical of inner-type blades.
[Drives]
- Grazing shots don't produce fast balls, but the amount of spin is excellent.
- When you really sink the ball in and drive through it, you get that heavy, fast ball that's exactly what ZLC is about. It's a bit demanding, though.
[Over the table]
- As long as you don't try to flick/strike it, it's very easy to handle, and if you try to add spin, it grips well.
- If you try to add speed, the bounce becomes inconsistent.[Feel with Long II on the backhand]
- It doesn't fly wildly and stays on the table.
- Chops from away from the table slip through cleanly with a low trajectory.
- Pushes and blocks that catch the side of the ball are especially easy to do.
I'd like to recommend it as a first special-material blade, but since it won't fly properly — or will fly way too much — unless you can control your impact precisely, I can only recommend it to players who already have a solid foundation.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I moved over from an Inner Force Layer ZLC, so I'll compare the two.
[Good points]
1. Speed drives go exactly where you want. Even with a thin contact, if your swing speed is there, you get sharp, fast shots. Bite into the ball deeper and you get heavy shots with about the same spin as the Inner Force Layer ZLC.
2. It's stable on techniques that need a gentle touch. With the Inner Force Layer ZLC, the bounce was completely different depending on whether you held the shot back or not, but this blade felt consistent every time, so stops, blocks, and flicks were all stable too.
[Bad points]
1. Because the ball leaves the blade so fast, I felt like players who can't keep a fast, stable swing, or who aren't great at generating spin, will end up hitting a lot of flat, spinless balls.
2. It's heavy, so with max thickness on both sides it gets pretty heavy. If you haven't been building up your strength, I'd recommend the Timo Boll ALC instead.
It's also fine to think of this as a comparison against 7-ply or 5-ply blades.
I'd recommend it to people who are used to heavy wood or special-material blades.
For flat hits and smashes, it produces really fast shots.The FL handle shape is close to ideal, so definitely give it a try.

I'll review this by comparing it to the popular Tenergy 05, G-1, Rakza 7, and V15 Extra.
[Light hits]
- Feels a bit hard, I'd say.
- The spin seems to come on by itself as the ball flies, similar to 05.
[Drive]
- The hardness you felt on light hits basically disappears entirely, and with a nice sound you get a pretty fast, heavy ball.
- Arc height goes roughly G-1 > Rakza 7 > Rakza X = 05 > V15.
[Block]
- With a gentle touch it drops slightly.
- If you push into it a bit, the ball comes out low and fast, and it's quite stable.
- Similar to the V15.
[Counter]
- Just holding it steady and hitting from above produces quite a good ball.
- Even without trying to drive it yourself, just swinging to match the ball still produces a decent shot.[Overall rating]
It's basically a 05 that's heavily affected by your impact.
If your impact isn't enough, the ball drops right off. That said, it's never overpowered, and the fact that exactly the force you put in gets transmitted to the ball is a pretty good point.
Lifting backspin is probably harder with this than with the other three rubbers compared here.
Durability is short — a little over two weeks at 3 hours of practice per day. I feel like that's even shorter than 05.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I switched from Tenergy 05 to the Hard version, so here's a comparison between the two.
My first impression was that the hardness is a bit much. It's a rubber where even sinking the ball into the sponge is tough unless you're pretty muscular.
If you can't consistently generate strong impact and swing speed, everything turns into a flat, spinless ball.
Even a prefectural high-school champion couldn't keep the spin consistent.
It might be worth putting on if you're a second-year high schooler or above who has built up solid physical strength.That's how the drive side of things went, but for everything else — countering, stops, pushes, serves — it's clearly easier to do than with Tenergy 05.
I'd recommend it to players who can commit and step into their shots.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard
