    I switched from the Koki Niwa Wood, and since the feel leans toward wood, the transition felt pretty smooth.

    Light shots feel wood-like, and strong shots feel more carbon-like — it feels like it sits right in the middle. This might be due to my own lack of skill, but I get the sense it's more of a spin-focused blade than a bounce-focused one.

    I thought it wouldn't fly that much for a carbon blade, but when the power transfers well, sometimes you get a ball of surprisingly higher quality than expected.

    Also, the sweet spot is wider than the Koki Niwa Wood, so the ball would still go even when I hit a bit off-center.

    I like it quite a bit (´-`)

    I'm an all-forehand player with inverted rubber on both sides.
    I've used this for about a year.

    This blade makes it easy to put spin on the ball, and the feel is fantastic. It's just plain fun to hit with (lol)
    On loop drives especially, you can feel in your hand that the spin really caught.

    I also remember reading somewhere, maybe in a magazine, that it pairs really well with Victas's V15 series rubbers, and after trying it myself I understood what that meant. I can't quite put it into words, but the blade and rubber feel like they become one, drawing out each other's strengths efficiently. Countering with V15 Extra on it is easy, and as long as you make contact, you won't get overpowered.

    If I had to name a downside, the grip is thick and squared off like a block of timber - I like it, but it won't suit people who prefer a thinner grip.

    Also, compared to the Innerforce Layer ZLC, I felt the sweet spot was narrower.

    I'd recommend this blade to players who want to attack with loop drives.

    User review

    Used MAX thickness on the forehand of my Innerforce ZLC.

    First off, the performance is definitely above what you'd expect for this price range.

    Good points
    - Serves and drives get tons of spin, and the shots come out heavy.
    - Sidespin serves in particular curve really well.
    - It's very bouncy, so you get speed. I've gotten a lot more outright winners on my drives.
    - Topspin rallies are easy to play.

    Bad points
    - The trajectory on drives is on the flat side.
    - When hitting a weak, low-momentum push from the opponent with an impact drive, the ball often doesn't rise enough and catches the net.
    - While it's easy to generate strong spin, it's also easy to get affected by the opponent's spin. Which makes sense, I guess.
    - It's heavy. Cut to racket size, it weighed 50g.

    That's about it, but there's no doubt the performance exceeds the price, so if you're curious, why not give it a try?
    That said, it's still a 50-degree rubber, so if you're not confident in your impact, you might want to start with the Z1 instead.
