    User review

    With a light hit, it felt like a completely ordinary inner-ply blade, nothing special. The bounce and control were normal too, nothing wild.
    But when I tried to put spin on it, the blade seemed to flex — like a mix of special material and wood — and produced an incredible amount of spin. That really surprised me. There was no other technique that felt hard to do, but the drive surprised me the most.
    The feel on contact is moderately soft — softer than an Innerforce ZLC — and it holds the ball extremely well. Even without hitting hard, the blade flexes on its own, giving spin on par with a ZLC, and I got heavy drives with tremendous carry. The drive carried so much that opponents often got jammed up by it. It's unfair in the best way.
    It holds the ball slightly more than an Innerforce ZLC, so it can hold onto it a bit too much, but I think that just takes getting used to.
    A recommended blade if you like inner-ply construction.

    This is a real gem that I'd highly recommend to players who have good ball control. When you get a clean swing, you can hit an incredibly clean-arcing, heavy topspin drive that really runs through the air.
    Blocking is stable, so I'd recommend it for the backhand too, but if you can't swing properly and your timing is off, or you hit it at a weird angle, instead of an arc the ball flies in a straight line and either goes long or into the net.
    Some people say it's hard and needs power, but I think even without much power, if you're good at your contact and ball control, the ball stays stable and you can bring out the rubber's performance fully.

  • ALNADE INNER

    User review

    Since it's PA carbon (polyarylate), I hit with it expecting something like an Innerforce ALC, but it turned out to be a completely different animal. It doesn't make that sharp crack sound like an ALC blade does. It felt more like the blade flexes and the ball springs off with a boing. The ball-holding feel and the softness of the material felt somewhere between the inner ZLC and the soft Izanas carbon of the (inner) Liberta Synergy. I'm not sure about the wood, but it was relatively soft. With the Liberta Synergy I often lost the spin battle because it held the ball too long, but with this one, without losing the spin battle, I could still hit heavy, extending drives with speed like a ZLC, right off the blade.
    I'd given up on inner ALC and ZLC blades since they didn't suit me, but this one is extremely easy to handle and lets me do everything — speed, power, ease of putting on spin, spin amount, and the height of arc on drives are all outstanding, and on top of that the design is the best there is. Out of all the inner blades I've used, this one suits me the most. I'm making it my main blade. Compared to other makers, the value for money is just too good. This is, without a doubt, one of the top-performing inner blades out there.

    User review

    I compared it against a bunch of other blades.
    This is just my personal opinion, not sure how useful it'll be...
    Innerforce Layer ALC ‥ ALC
    Innerforce Layer ZLC ‥ ZLC
    Timo Boll ZLF ‥ ZLF
    Liberta Synergy ‥ Syn
    Liberta Synergy Plus ‥ Syn+

    Feel / grab, light hits
    Syn ≥ ALC ≥ ZLC ≥ Syn+ > ZLF

    Feel / grab, hard hits
    Syn > Syn+ > ZLC > ALC > ZLF

    Drive speed
    Syn+ > ZLC ≥ Syn > ALC ≥ ZLF

    Arc height
    Syn+ ≥ ALC > ZLC > Syn ≥ ZLF

    Serve
    ZLC ≥ ALC > ZLF ≥ Syn+ ≥ Syn

    Short game
    ALC > Syn+ ≥ Syn ≥ ZLC ≥ ZLF

    Receive
    ZLC ≥ ALC ≥ Syn+ ≥ ZLF > Syn

    The Syn+ performs great across the board — the feel is excellent, and despite being bouncy it has great control too, so it's well-balanced and gives you that feeling like you can do anything with it and it'll land. I've tried all sorts of things and always end up coming back to it. I really feel like it's a great blade. This is where my equipment-hopping ends.

  • Bluefire M1

    User review

    I've been switching between this and Tenergy 05 for about a year, but I've decided to stick with Bluefire M1 for good!
    The sheet is a bit hard, but it's a hardness you can control, and it's less affected by incoming spin - the hardness and ball-holding feel are about the same as EVO MX-P. The 05 is softer and keeps the ball on the table more easily, but M1 also becomes just as stable once you get used to it. It transforms depending on how you swing. It's easier to handle than the V15. The arc is even higher than the 05, about the same as MX-P. Lifting backspin is easy with this.
    Also, when I trade topspin rallies with a training partner using Dignics 09C, I win comfortably. It really pushes through the ball. Might be my technique though...
    People say the shots feel heavy and the ball has good extension. The power on topspin drives is outstanding. Those are the reasons I settled on the M1.
