First off, the wood is soft, so compared to Butterfly's other outer ALC blades (Zhang Jike), the Outerforce makes a knocking wood sound. (Conversely, the Zhang Jike's wood is hard, so you can hear the ALC material's sound clearly.)
So people who dislike the sound of the hit will probably dislike this.
As for speed, it's naturally slower than Butterfly's outer ALC. It's faster than an inner blade though.
I thought it might be an easier-to-handle outer blade, but it surprisingly flies quite linearly, so you need to consciously generate your own spin. (It felt more linear and had a lower arc than the Zhang Jike.)
The spin is so-so. With something like the Zhang Jike, if you grip the ball for an instant and rip it, you get tremendous spin, but maybe because the wood on the Outerforce is soft, it felt like a mushy, dull kind of spin, which I didn't like.
In the end, I thought this might just be an easier-to-use version of Butterfly's outer blades, but it's really not that at all — it feels like a totally different blade.
For me the Zhang Jike was overwhelmingly better, so even though I've only used the Outerforce once, I'm selling it.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little hard
