Butterfly Fan Zhendong ALC

Looping oriented! Paired with T05 on FH — best combination. For BH I have V22 double extra — offer more dwell time if you lack good technique. Can generate a lot of spin and for big guys like me it helps with initial kick which is good for not so agile legs and torso. World class quality. Catapult + spin + speed + decent amount of feel and good control. No cons for me.

The best ALC blade I’ve ever tried so far. I tried Lin Gaoyuan ALC, DHS Hurricane Long 5/5X, and Viscaria Super ALC. Nothing comes close to this blade. This blade is not 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.

Gran madera con una muy buena velocidad, aporta un control decente… en definitiva, esta marca no decepciona.

The best blade for my game: speed and control.

Not amazing blades, still better than LGY ALC and Otcharov ALC in its class.

Sorry for the formatting issues.

Nice control and balance. Good for short and mid-distance play. I’m still adjusting to long balls, but it still performs well in gameplay.

After 4 years playing with a DHS Malong 3 (7-ply all-wood blade), I felt it was time to try something new. The ML Long 3 is a fantastic blade with excellent feel and speed, but it lacked the sharpness needed to finish points consistently.

One of my friends switched to an Innerforce ALC blade, which offered astonishing control and had the potential to make a difference. The FZD ALC is more direct compared to the ML3 and Innerforce ALC. I didn’t expect such an offensive blade to have such good control. It grabs the ball momentarily and releases the power when you strike hard or place the ball short and low over the net. This is remarkable because I’m using T05 rubber, which is known for its bounciness.

On my forehand, I use Dignics 80, which was extremely fast on the ML3 blade. However, with the FZD ALC blade, I can generate more spin due to the noticeable moment of grip and release. Backhand Chiquita shots are direct and can be dangerously fast. Mid-distance forehand loops are easy to execute due to the built-in grip and power release. Service receive is extremely spinny because of the grip aspect.

Decent blade for an intermediate player.

I requested the blade to be around 86 grams, and the blade is great with balanced speed and control. I have only been playing for less than a year, but I have good fundamentals with a focus on service variations and topspin, and this blade took me just a couple of days to adjust to it. It improved my game a lot with training. Also, I got Hurricane Neo 3 on the forehand and Xiom Vega Pro on the backhand, and the setup is just a spin machine, great for service and topspinning the ball. The international shipping to Egypt was surprisingly fast, as it took less than a week to be delivered to my doorstep, and it was an overall good experience with TableTennis11. It was my first time purchasing from the website, but it will definitely be my first choice for any future purchases.

5 звёзд.

The best ALC blade so far!

Excellent blade for pro.

Obviously, this blade is blowing up now because it is advertised and named after world number 1, and in my opinion, best player ever: Fan ZhenDong.

Comparing it to regular Viscaria since they are both ALC blades with the same composition, I feel like the FZDALC is more controllable, but a bit lacking in speed compared to the Viscaria.

Both generate good amounts of spin, but sometimes it depends on the rubber and traction choices too.

For rubber choices, I recommend harder rubbers (I use T05H) on the forehand, and medium to medium-hard rubbers (I use T64/ T19) on the backhand.

For intermediate players, I recommend using Donic Baracuda on both sides. You won’t regret that decision.
