Blade description:

The Butterfly Innerforce Layer ALC.S is a standout table tennis blade that combines the classic feel of all-wood blades with the advanced power and performance of carbon. This blade has been crafted with a unique composition that includes a thin 5.5mm construction and a combination of spruce outer plies, which not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also contributes to excellent dwell time and spin generation. The Innerforce ALC.S is known for its remarkable control, rated at an impressive 9.2, making it an excellent choice for players looking to refine their technique and gameplay.

In terms of weight, the Innerforce ALC.S is categorized as medium, typically weighing around 90g. Despite its solid weight, many players report that it feels light in the hand, allowing for easy maneuverability and quick adjustments during play. The blade offers a stiffness rating of 4.4 and a hardness of 4.2, providing a balance between flexibility and rigidity that suits various playing styles, especially those who rely on both powerful attacks and precise control.

What sets the Innerforce ALC.S apart from other alternatives, such as the Viscaria or the TBS, is its unique blend of all-wood feel and carbon speed. Players have praised it for its ability to generate explosive topspin while maintaining an impressive level of touch for finesse shots. While it may not suit every player, particularly those who prefer stiffer carbon blades, the Innerforce ALC.S serves as a great option for intermediate to advanced players seeking a versatile blade capable of elevating their game.

Vyborná šepel, lehká (nemusí každému vyhovovat), perfektní cit na pálce, přesná, vynikající pro hru u stolu.

Great control and ball feeling. Enough power if you play close to the table. Easy to produce spin on serves and loops. I use it with Impartial XS 2.1mm.

Very good! Note: please use fast rubbers on it.

Like no other composite blade! If you find TBS/VIS/Zhang Jike ALC/other ALC blades lack the feel of balls, Innerforce ALC.S is an answer! It is a beautiful blade with great dwell time. You can experience an all-wood feel in short-game and carbon power for attack. The thin construct and spruce outer-ply help generate monstrous spin, but rely on the player’s own strength and technique to generate power and speed-(speed-8.8-8.9).
