Butterfly Fan Zhendong ALC
Blade description:
This composite blade features a 5+2 construction, utilizing Arylate Carbon (ALC) layers to achieve a balance between speed and control. Designed for offensive play, it is particularly noted for its looping capabilities and its ability to generate high levels of spin. The blade provides a distinct “grab” effect during contact, allowing for dwell time that benefits both short-game touch and heavy top-spin generation, while still releasing significant power during high-intensity strikes.
Performance Characteristics
- Playstyle: Well-suited for mid-distance looping and service-oriented play.
- Feel and Control: Offers a balance of directness and tactile feedback. It is reported to be more controllable than some classic ALC counterparts, maintaining a crisp feel without sacrificing the ability to keep short balls low over the net.
- Versatility: The blade is characterized as being non-picky regarding rubber pairings, performing effectively with a wide range of medium to hard tensions, including high-traction offensive rubbers.
- Handling: Features a larger handle design that accommodates players preferring a more substantial grip.

Looping oriented! When paired with T05 on the forehand, it creates an excellent combination.
For the backhand, I use V22 Double Extra, which offers more dwell time if you lack good technique. It can generate a lot of spin, and for larger players like myself, it helps with the initial kick, which is good for those with less agile legs and torso.
The quality is world-class. It provides catapult effect, spin, speed, a decent amount of feel, and good control. No cons for me.

The best ALC blade I’ve ever tried so far. I have tried the Lin Gaoyuan ALC, DHS Hurricane Long 5/5X, and Viscaria Super ALC.
Nothing comes close to this blade. This blade isn’t picky when it comes to rubbers. You can put any rubbers on this blade and it will perform fine.
Buy this blade if you like big handles.
