Very similar to Timo Boll ZLF, this blade is slightly slower, offering a longer dwell time. Its slow loop is more spinny than the TM ZLF, which is already known for its excellent spin. However, fast drives produced with this blade have more arc and less speed than those produced with the ZLF. It also has a softer feel than the ZLF, resulting in a very pleasant overall playing experience.

While I previously enjoyed playing with the ZLF when using the celluloid ball, I find this blade a better match for me with the new Nittaku premium 40+ plastic ball from China.

This blade has an amazing balance of speed and spin. The handle is so comfortable right out of the box. My other blade is Viscaria, but this one has more feeling.

At first, I liked this blade a lot. The feeling when hitting the ball feels really good. However, after a while, I started to notice that I’m gripping onto the handle a lot harder than I used to, mainly due to the smooth surface of it. Also, the handle size is quite different from any other blade out there, so it takes time to get used to it.

This is a very beautiful racket! It is simply a work of art. The 3D handle is very comfortable, the topspin is fast, the ball control is stable, and the defense is easy. This racket is excellent in every aspect and has almost no defects. It is a good racket suitable for many people.
Thanks to Tabletennis11 for selling many good products! Thank you very much!

The best-playing blade, truly living up to its reputation as a loop machine, when paired with a rubber with a hardness of 50, the forehand loops are very sharp, the more power you put in, the more satisfying it is.

I am using Moristo SP on the back and Fastarc G1 on the front. The advantage of this racket is its stability. Stability allows for a more powerful play. I will continue to use this racket unless something special happens.

Very nice.

I played with the Butterfly T.BOLL ALC. The ball flew to the right, like a bullet, and to the left - like a log. I tried the Nittaku Basaltec Inner and everything changed - I could do whatever I wanted on the right side, but the left side was no good. I couldn’t get used to it in 5 hours. The handle feels great in the hand, control and speed are fantastic, but it’s not for me.

It’s really a nice artwork. Easy to handle, but a little bit slow. Suitable for pimple-out rubbers on the backhand.

This is a good racket. However, it doesn’t seem great for the price range. The drive is good, and the feel and sound of hits are good. However, a racket like this can easily be found from any brand. It is said to have been created with the spirit of a craftsman, so I think it’s worth that dedication.

무게가 살짝 무거운 95g 금이 있는데 컨트롤도 잘 되고

그립감이 최고입니다…

I do not have enough words for how great this blade is. A small warning though about the handle. It’s a little bit shorter than standard length so if you hold low on the handle, be aware. For me, it doesn’t make the slightest difference. I equipped it with H3 provincial orange sponge on FH and Donic Accuda S2 on BH. It is a looping monster.

Also, thank you TT11 for excellent service.

Very good.

It’s really easy to use.
And there is something powerful.

I like it.

아우터를 쓰다 조금 무거운 듯해서 이너로 다시 구입했습니다.
아우터 못지 않게 잘 나갑니다.
오히려 임펙트가 있다면 아우터보다 나은 듯합니다.
직구 가격, 제품의 질… 단연 최고입니다.

We had bought it with high expectations. After trying it out, I was totally disappointed. It produces too much vibration and inconsistent bounces. I want to return or sell it, but it is hard to find a buyer. Nittaku has given me a huge negative impression. I usually don’t write reviews, but I have to write this because I don’t want anyone to waste money on this expensive decoration.

This is universally recognized as the most exquisite blade, but when I first got it, I didn’t feel that way, I felt like it was a woodworking product, the edges seemed arbitrary. But after a while, every touch made me feel that this is a blade with a soul, with a medieval taste, the more I look at it, the more profound it becomes, the more I like it, in the end I even hang it up unwilling to hit it. I probably won’t hit this racket in the future, so don’t ask me how it feels. 5+2 structure: Spruce + Ayous + Basalt + Paulownia.
