Butterfly Timo Boll ALC

My favorite blade for the past 8 years, this blade excels in all aspects for me. It provides excellent feel and touch while being fast. Faster than one might initially think, and this speed occasionally affects the control. If you can master the control of this blade, it becomes an absolute beast and is worth the investment. However, as I am not a highly advanced or professional player, I have yet to fully maximize its potential, which sometimes leads to a loss of control. I have to restrain myself on powerful shots. Despite these occasional setbacks, I can effectively use the blade most of the time. It’s a joy to play with this blade because it allows me to feel every ball I hit and provides excellent feedback. I would highly recommend this blade to any all-around or offensive player.

Salah satu blade andalan saya.

Cepat dan memiliki kontrol yang luar biasa.

Apalagi untuk bermain spin, blade ini sangat mudah digunakan.

Blade legendaris yang top?

Do not buy from tabletennis11, tempting offers, expensive problems!

A very good solid blade. Mine weights only 82gr. Very easy to control, it has power when you need it. It’s very controllable near the table (good blocks, chops, flicks) and has enough power to play from the second and third zone. The best blade for me so far.

It was my dream blade, and it came to me as a Christmas present. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have spent that much money on it. I think the biggest disadvantage is the price.

I have been training regularly with it for the last 3 months. — Very balanced. — The ball feeling is too good. It provides more control and more contact time than many carbon boards I have used. — Absolutely in harmony with Tenergy 05. Together, it becomes an effective weapon. — There is no distance problem. It responds very positively at close, medium, or long distances. — Spins are effective. It goes at a speed close to smashes.

I gave an order these days to try cheaper replicas of this product. I will share my comments for them as well.

Timo Boll ALC is by far the top blade I’ve played so far. I would definitely recommend it if you have the money.

This is a good offensive blade. It has a nice feel and offers good speed, spin, active and passive block, and control. It’s the best blade for my game!

P.S. I have three blades like this, but with different weights (85, 87, and 88 grams) and different feelings; I bought them in different years. I’m now playing with my older blade (8 years old, 85 grams). I feel that this blade has more power and a more direct feel than the other two blades.

Anyway, this is the best blade ever! Merry Christmas and best wishes!

Crisp. Fast. Good spin with a Donic Bluefire M1 on the FH. Smooth underspin lifting. Forging. Awesome blade…But the price is painful to my pockets!!!

I just own a cpen TM ALC. Great blade, easy to loop. FH: Donic M1 Bluefire. BH: ACUDA s2. Just sand the edges of the wings and add badminton grip tape (thin). For intermediate players. Great topspins. Learn RPB with cpen.

Very stiff blade, less flexy and has very little dwell time.

Not good for Chinese rubbers, use ESN and Butterfly rubbers instead.

It has a very comfortable handle.

Originally, I did not plan to review this blade because mine is slightly “different.” It weighs just 81 grams, slightly softer and slower than the average Timo Boll ALC blade. However, I decided to proceed so that “my readers” can better understand my reviews.

Upon initially testing this blade at a dealer (about 3 years ago), I found it too fast and heavy. However, I noticed the control for such a fast blade was uncanny (or incomparably high). When my (favorite) dealer offered me this 81g blade, I could not resist.

I played that blade for a year and was able to considerably improve my game. On the forehand side, I play a Joola Rhyzm tech with 2 mm and on my backhand side, a 61 Second Eagle with a 38-degree sponge in the same thickness. This combination provides fantastic safety and sufficient speed with excellent spin.

Update 08/2021: I have found a blade that is very similar to this one but costs considerably less! Read my review at: https://revspin.net/blade/no-brand-lemuria-lin-alc.html.

The blade is excellent for countering topspins. However, due to its stiffness, you must accelerate your strokes faster to rub against the ball rather than punching through it. Additionally, use a smaller stroke and stay close to the table to optimize its strengths.

The blade is not compatible with Chinese tacky rubber; instead, consider using Butterfly or ESN rubbers.

Very nice blade for all-round players.

After using Andro for more than a year and a half, I decided to switch to one of Butterfly’s blades for the upcoming year. Among all the options, the Timo Boll ALC caught my attention the most.

The Timo Boll ALC is highly recommended and lives up to its reputation. It offers a well-balanced combination of speed, spin, and control. When your technique is refined, this blade truly shines.

It excels at medium to far table range, providing exceptional effectiveness for shots. At close range, it performs well for flicks and both forehand and backhand topspin loops from backspin.

It’s important to note that this blade is not suitable for beginners or intermediate players. It’s recommended for players with good technique. I currently use Tenergy 05 on my forehand and 05 FX on my backhand, which enhances feel and control for blocks and loops.

Highly recommended for advanced-level players seeking an upgrade.

Awesome blade. It has great control and speed. The blade is very consistent.

Speed: 8.5 to 8.6 Weight: 92 grams Control: 8.7 to 8.0 Flexible Blade: Off to Off-

First, I must clarify that this blade is not my primary setup. I still prefer the Innerforce Layer ALC because I’m still improving my technique, and it provides me with more control and feeling. However, I use this blade in some training sessions and I do not completely agree with the speed ratings given here. I have it paired with T05 on FH and T80 on BH. I really love it on FH for everything, even pushes. However, I have some difficulties getting proper top spins on FH, especially near the table. Maybe it’s my technique that is not good enough. I’ll keep it because I believe it will be my primary blade in the near future once I improve my game. Just to finalize, I think people tend to underrate BTY products because they are more expensive than other brands. This blade is faster than other blades rated on this site with a better score.

Uma das raquetes mais usadas por profissionais e amadores em todo mundo. Raquete com excelente controle, boa velocidade, mas com um pouquinho de vibração. Uso desde o início de 2018 e, em pouco tempo de uso, me adaptei a essa lâmina.

Depois que comecei a usar Butterfly Timo Boll ALC, meu backhand teve uma melhora considerável.

A minha pesa 89g.

Nice blade, but, sorry to say, it’s an overpriced blade.

This blade is fantastic! You can do anything with it. It is a bit faster than normal but still not too fast that you miss out on control. In the past, I have tried some extremely fast blades, but I find that they bounce off too quickly. This blade offers a great combination of control and speed.

Looping and topspinning with this blade is also very easy, and the shots usually have quite heavy spin. Blocking is also fantastic with this blade because it has decent speed and can shoot the ball off the bat, but it still has the control, so you can place it where you want.

Serves are fantastic with this blade as I feel like I can really rip the ball with it. The sweet spot is pretty good as well, except for the top of the bat, where I find it a little less consistent.

I think the only downside to this blade is the price. It is overpriced compared to other blades, but to be honest, I still do not mind as it will last a fair few years if you treat it properly. Overall, this is a fantastic blade, and if it is good enough for Timo Boll, then it is good enough for me.

Wow! What can I say? I tried a Timo Boll ALC in FL handle from a buddy of mine, and it was an amazing experience. The blade is stiff (not much feedback) but surprisingly has a good deal of dwell to generate great spin. Close to the table, it is slow and has control. Far away, the carbon kicks in and gives you a few extra gears. I could do everything with it. Looping was amazing. Blocking was crisp and accurate. It is an all-round attacking blade, and I instantly fell in love with it. I can now see why many top players recommend/use it. It is a perfectly balanced blade —85+ grams. Butterfly engineers definitely got this blade right. It is a tad faster than the spirit. I’m definitely going to buy one for myself. This one will go down in history as one of the all-time great blades.

Not for beginners, due to lack of feedback. My advice to young players below 1800+: Develop your strokes on an all-wood blade for 2 years and then switch to this blade.

What a wonderful discovery for me! I am an all-round offensive player who likes to play short and attack mostly with my forehand when I have the first opportunity, trying to prepare my final stroke after a couple of spinny top-spins.

I was using a Donic Waldner Legend Carbon, which was good too, but for me too “hard”. Sometimes I had the feeling the ball was running so fast from my blade and had some issues in controlling it. I decided then to purchase a Timo Boll ALC with a Tibhar Evolution MX-P on forehand and a Tibhar Evolution EL-S on backhand.

The feeling was incredible. I lost very little in terms of speed, but it is still very fast for me. But what impressed me more is the feeling of the ball I have. It seems to me that I can touch it with my hand. Control is absolutely not an issue now. Of course I still make mistakes, but the confidence in me grows a lot with this blade and the rubbers.

Some colleagues told me that now my top spins are sometimes really spinny and difficult to control. I feel also that the arc and the consistency of them is improving. I am totally satisfied, and if there will be any changes in the future, I will update the review.

As my level in table tennis improved, I found that a good racket made a significant difference in my performance. I had previously tried this particular racket but found it difficult to control at that time.

Recently, with my improved skills, I decided to give this racket another try before a local tournament. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was now the perfect fit for me. The racket, equipped with Tenergy 05 rubber on both sides, provided an optimal balance of speed and control.

The rubber added extra speed and control, while the racket itself provided additional speed. This combination allowed me to execute shots with precision and consistency. The ball didn’t bounce away at close range and excelled even when I was farther from the table.

The racket’s large sweet spot ensured that regardless of where I hit the ball, it always ended up on the table. Everyone at my club who tested it was able to achieve positive results, unlike other rackets that required specific playing styles.

If you have a strong understanding of the game, you’ll find this racket to be highly effective. However, if spin is not your forte or you primarily use flat balls, this racket’s speed may be overwhelming.

The best blade forever, more so than the old models and versions from 2016.

Truly amazing!

Playing with the Stiga Pro Carbon blade was an exceptional experience. It is an excellent choice for offensive players who prioritize speed and spin without compromising control. The combination of carbon fiber and wood layers provides a dynamic feel that allows for precise shot-making and powerful strokes.

One of the most remarkable aspects of this blade is its lightweight construction. It weighs approximately 85 grams, making it easy to maneuver and execute quick movements. Despite its lightness, the Stiga Pro Carbon blade maintains a solid feel, giving players confidence in their strokes.

The blade’s 5-ply construction contributes to its balanced performance. The outer layers of limba wood provide a soft touch and excellent control, while the carbon fiber core generates tremendous speed and power. This combination allows players to transition seamlessly between aggressive and defensive shots.

Overall, the Stiga Pro Carbon blade is a highly recommended choice for advanced players seeking a versatile and high-performance blade that enhances their offensive capabilities while maintaining control and touch.

5 stars blade. Very predictable.

One of the best ALC blades I’ve tried, with a short break-in time, it offers a sharp and comfortable feel. It provides the right amount of throw for both close-to-table and far-away-from-table play. It boasts a good balance of control and speed, but its passive blocking capabilities are lacking. Overall, it is a highly rated blade.

Timo Boll ALC provides more speed and spin than my ZJK Blue Dragon. I’m using this blade with Tibhar MXP on the forehand and Tenergy 05 on the backhand. Control is excellent.

Work of art. I have been using it for 2 months. A magical blade, somehow Butterfly has managed to put the soul of Timo in it, as it makes me play shots that are dreamlike. I have red Tenergy 05 and black Fastarc S1. Both are great rubbers. Fastarc is faster, and Tenergy 05 is more spinny and has great control too. This blade has just enough feedback. Out of position loops land on the table, so it has a large and uniform sweet spot. A looper’s blade all the way.

Very good blade, that has a great speed with a very swayed control. With this blade the topspins are beautiful, with the ALC TB you can have an offensive game where you can control the game. But I recommend this blade with a semi hard rubber to have good control and at the same time to good aggressive tospins since the ALC helps to absorb the impact for which one gives you time to scrape the ball.
.

Best blade for spin-oriented attacks. Provides good feedback. Going down in history as a classic.

This was my first carbon blade after playing on 5-ply wood (Nittaku Acoustic, Ma Lin Extra Offensive). The first big differences I noticed were a large and uniform sweet spot and reduced vibrations. I play H3 on forehand and T64 on backhand. My forehand was faster and more linear off the paddle, and I liked the harder and more direct feeling paired with H3.

My backhand was much faster and a little harder to control at first. I had to close up more for looping, but mid-distance backhand loops were very easy. I feel this blade packs a lot more power than the wood blades, especially paired with Tenergry, but it is not too fast or crazy. It is very nice and comfortable to play with.

I have only had this blade for a short time, but I can confidently say that it is exceptional. It offers incredible speed without sacrificing control. Previously, my topspins would soar 5-10 cm over the table using various bats, including slower models. However, with this blade, my topspins effortlessly stay on the table while maintaining the same speed and spin. This blade is highly recommended for offensive play.

After 2 years of using this blade, I have never felt like I have had to change it; it is perfect for me. Not too fast and not too slow, but the thing which I like the most about it, which I haven’t seen in another non-carbon blade, is the solid feel you get from it. With other blades, I dislike the hollow feel, where you can feel the bat almost vibrate on the other side. I don’t know if this is because of the carbon, but I like it.

My favorite table tennis blade so far! I recently got the Garaydia ZLC from Japan. It’s fantastic for smashing, especially from 50cm away from the table.

It’s a perfect match with Tenergy 05 on both sides, like Timo Boll uses. While you won’t play exactly like Timo, you’ll still feel like him.

I use the AN handle, which is great for me because the top has a curve and it’s comfortable for long dwell time.

If you have the money and want a very good blade with good control and power, then go for it. The Timo Boll ALC is your best choice.

For a cheaper blade, Primorac is good for fast-ball, power, and control. It’s great for offensive plays, but it’s not as good for spin. However, it’s a beast for smashing.

It suffices to say that the entire blade is one large, beautiful, very consistent—and not so reasonably priced—sweet spot. TBALC is a complete murderer. No wonder Timo Boll himself plays with this.

However, it is not recommended for intermediate or advanced players who are still developing technique, since it provides no vibration feedback compared to an all wood 5 ply blade of its speed range (take Xiom Off S or Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Off). Even a thick 7 ply all wood like, say, andro CS7 Vel (Off+ as fast or even faster than this) provides better feedback when playing short or middle distance games.

TB ALC is quite fast and not so easy to control due to the feedback issue I just described. However, for Elite and pro players, this is the blade to buy. It’s worth every penny if you can afford it.

I must say that this blade here by tabletennisdb.com scored only a value of 8.4 for control (as of 02.09.2016), which I find unjustified. This wood has an amazing control! It’s a super blade!

I have tested more than 20 blades. This is the best blade that I have played for me (Variable offensive play). I previously played the Butterfly Innerforce Layer ZLC. It was not bad, but the Timo Boll ALC is much more evenly balanced, sensitive, and soulful in my opinion.

Stands out as one of the best ALC blades ever made. Very well balanced.

I switched to this blade from the Tibhar Stratus Samsonov Carbon (http://www.tabletennisdb.com/blade/tibhar-stratus-samsonov-carbon.html) and have been playing with it for a month. I believe it’s an excellent blade that offers exceptional control and impressive speed during fast strikes. The ALC feature enhances its precision near the table and maintains a high level of speed even at mid-range distances.

Currently, I’m using the Palio Legend 3 rubbers with this blade. I switched from my previous rubbers because they were excessively fast for my preference.

The best blade for Tenergy 05 is a blade that is stiff and has a high dwell time. This will allow the Tenergy 05 to grip the ball and produce the necessary spin and power. The blade should also have a large sweet spot, which will make it more forgiving on off-center hits. Some of the best blades for Tenergy 05 include the Butterfly Timo Boll ALC, the Stiga Carbonado 145, and the Yasaka Sweden Extra.

This is a very good blade. It is one of the best ALC blades ever made. It is very well balanced. It is a fast blade, though not as fast as ZLC blades. It is still rather fast. It works amazingly well with Tenergy 05. I highly recommend it.

After 3 months of using my Timo Boll ALC, I finally got a grasp of its special characteristics. With Tenergy 64fx on the backhand and Joola Rhyzm on the forehand, spin, control, and speed are perfect. Its vibration while playing provides excellent feeling and great topspin/loop arc!

Good fast Carbon blade. I like how it plays from mid distance and also in the block. Like some other reviewers wrote, it has a good balance.

Not the best control in the short game. I had some problems getting short returns in the beginning, but it felt better after some small adjustments.

A good blade overall, but nothing spectacular.

The best blade I have ever had. The power looping is super strong with a nice feel of the ball, and the control is very nice. This blade makes heavy spin. I recommend using Tibhar MX-P for forehand and Tibhar FX-P for backhand. It makes all types of shots. The Arylate Carbon makes the real difference from the majority of blades in the market. For me, it is the best blade there is.

This blade is widely considered the best option for all-around loopers. While it may not be the most exceptional in any specific area, it excels in maintaining a balanced performance across all aspects of the game.

A good blade with Arylate Carbon. It is compatible with Butterfly Tenergy 05 and Xiom Vega Pro.

I use it with DHS Hurricane Neo 3 National on FH and Donic Bluefire M1 Turbo on BH, and it suits me just perfectly.

The Blade is used in an ST handle. My ALC was selected by a Chinese friend who now plays in the French Pro A (he was a superleague player). Amazing speed, perfect balance, big sweet spot. I’m currently using T64 on BH and the new Giant Dragon “storm soft” in FH selected by the same Chinese player, simply amazing. I also selected a boll spirit ST and a Viscaria Light FL. My TB-ALC is 86-87gr.

Also, an advice from this great player: Don’t use water-based glue, the Koto outer ply will become more and more soft, making the blade feel softer and slower.

I use it with 729-2 on forehand and a calibra lt spin on backhand. It is really comfortable for an all-round offensive player, especially for those who aim for heavy spinny shots rather than fast smashes.

Bought this and changed it from my TBZLF. It seems to be a little bouncier and more stiff. Put 2 T05 in it, and I had been adjusting for about a week. It’s a little faster than my TBZLF with 80 and 64 with less feeling but with more power, especially in topspins. I’ll continue to adjust, and I hope this will be my definitive blade. Greetings all… Mine is 84gr as my TBZLF…

I went looking for a TBS and ended up with this ALC from Japan in an ST handle. After using the ZLC, this was a huge disappointment. I had heard so much about it. The handle was too small for my normal-sized hands. I played with it using 2 T05s and it played OK. I tried it with T64FX and T05FX and didn’t like it, feeling that there was too much flex. The one I had only weighed 84 grams, and I doubt very much if it is anything like the one Timo Boll currently plays with, which is supposedly much heavier at 93 grams. On balance, I would probably say that it’s a safe choice, but it didn’t light my fire.

This is a very good blade. One year ago, I thought differently because when I replaced Schlager Carbon OFF+ (95 gr weight) with Timo Boll ALC (85 gr weight), my expectations changed. If you put on them some Tensor rubbers such as Xiom Vega Pro or Andro Rasant or Andro Rasant Turbo like me, then you will see an absolutely different quality in your game with full power, also and good control at the same time…

As an intermediate player with two years of experience trying out different blades, I found the BTY TM ALC to be the most balanced and effective in helping me improve my skill. However, it took a while to master its control and maximize its potential. ALC is certainly not recommended for beginners due to its high speed. The spin it generates can vary depending on the rubber used, but when you find the right combination that suits your style, it truly shines. I’ve tested ALC with DHS H3 Neo, Acuda S2 & S3, but my favorite and current setup is T05 forehand and T64 fx backhand.

Very Good Blade, I must say. Especially with Tenergy 05- FX. Very lightweight. It sacrifices no speed. Arylate carbon is strong yet very delicate. The color of the blade handle runs after some time.

I got this blade yesterday and it felt great. My shots had more spin and power behind them. I like that when looping and playing powerful spin shots, the arylate carbon comes into play. But when you smash and chop, it feels like a wood blade, giving you the best combination of speed, control, and feel. My blade weight was about 90 grams, but it didn’t feel so bad. If you have the money, buy this blade; you won’t regret it. I use this with Xiom Omega IV pro on both sides.

The best blade ever, combining carbon with a natural feeling when playing.

This blade is well balanced and is ideal for players who prioritize control and consistency, without the need for excessive speed beyond what the rubber provides.

As my first blade, it has been instrumental in helping me develop a precise technique. It excels in looping from various distances, while maintaining a controlled short game without excessive “pop.”

I highly recommend this blade to anyone looking for these qualities. Adjustments to the phrasing have been made as needed.

It’s a great blade: very fast but with a little control. I think it requires a good technique to play with this blade. But if you have this technique, it’s an awesome choice!

I have played with a couple of different blades before, such as the Mizutani Jun and the Schalger Carbon. However, I did not enjoy the feel of the Mizutani Jun with Tenergy64 on both sides. The blade was excessively fast but lacked flexibility and control. I also had a negative experience with the Schlager.

Based on positive reviews from the forum, I decided to try the ALC. I found this blade to be exceptional. It provides a soft and responsive feel with excellent control and dwell time. The speed and spin it generates are more than adequate. I use H3 on the forehand and Tenergy64 on the backhand, and I am extremely satisfied with this setup. Despite its weight of around 87 grams, it does not feel excessively head heavy. With lighter rubbers, I believe this blade’s performance can be further enhanced. I highly recommend the ALC for long-term use.

The blade is overall good, but it’s nothing special.

The blade is lightweight and, in my opinion, faster than the TBS. It pairs well with Tenergy 05 on the forehand and Tenergy 64 on the backhand.

TMALC is a very good blade. I use a combo with Xiom Sigma Pro Max on the forehand and Xiom 4 Pro 2mm on the backhand. It provides good loop and attack capabilities.

Speed is good as well as the control. It is a blade worthy of recommending. Use one and see the big difference.

Can this blade be used by a defender who chops on both sides?

The Kiri center layer and Smil and pimorat carbon layers help give the loop more momentum and the 45’ plies of Alyrat carbon help control it.

I used it with the Joola X-Plode FH and it had good looping express because the Alyrat carbon helps the X-Plode show the effect of the rubber 100% and the Kiri helps the loop more than 45’.

I think it is a good blade for all-around play.

Timo Boll ALC is the only Shakehand Composite blade that I would play with as my main weapon!

-Good control -Little vibration -Fast enough (for me)

In the past, I have tried many composite blades. TB ALC is the best one so far…

Very Dwell + Soft Feel + Not much vibration - These qualities make this blade amazing for loop topspin and counter topspin. Works amazing with any Tenergy 05 like rubbers (Hexer, Genius, etc.). Highly Recommended for any topspin loopers!

Very good blade in control for soft touches and flicks over-table like a 5-ply. With enough power and speed for loop drive, close to a 7-ply. Best match with Japanese or European tensor-like rubbers for a control attacker. Doesn’t seem to go well with Chinese rubber.

My weapon of choice. The handle is a little small for my liking. However, it plays awesome with Tenergry. It has great feeling and has perfect weight balance. It works better with harder/heavier rubbers than TBS for that reason, although TBS has more dwell. I recommend it for all-round attackers.

This blade is a good blade. It has a good feel and is well-balanced. The weight is evenly distributed, which makes it easy to control. The blade is also very durable and can withstand heavy use.

Overall, this blade is a great choice for anyone looking for a good quality blade that will last for a long time.

It was quite light and good at looping! I was enjoying using this ALC Timo Boll bat with double Butterfly Tenergy 05!

Very good blade in combination with Hexer Max on FH and BH.

It’s a fast blade, though not as fast as ZLC. Currently using Tenergy 25 on both sides, its speed, spin, and control is very good—a lot faster than I expected.

I chose the ALC blade because it has arylate carbon, which has a high throw angle. However, I also wanted good rubbers like Tenergy 25, which has a low throw angle. By putting them together, you can have great spin, speed, and a normal throw angle.

Great for the all-out attack player who is looking for consistency and control.

This blade is very precise for middle range play, and it has a very good handle with minimal vibrations.

I’ve used the Sriver G3FX, the Tenergy 05, and the Xiom Vega Europe rubbers with this blade, and all of them have worked as expected.

Therefore, the only explanation for a bad return is a lack of practice.

I’ve recently bought my Timo Boll ALC FL. It weighs 92 grams.

First impressions: very fast, maybe a little slower than my Primo Carbon. Dwell time is long, and it’s easy to control.

I will post a very big review in a few days.

This is a good blade, however, the reason for its low overall rating is due to the fact that it is essentially identical to the Timo Boll Spirit Blade, which is considerably less expensive.

Even qualified Butterfly distributors have been unable to provide an explanation for the distinction between the Spirit and ALC models.

Best blade for looping.

The blade offers great control and spin, making it a great choice for players who like to loop. The blade is also relatively light, making it easy to handle. Overall, this blade is a great choice for players who are looking for a blade that will help them improve their looping game.

Great Blade. I can see why Timo uses it.

Still a legendary blade, not many composite blades can compare to it. High-performance looping and heavy spin-oriented players will benefit the most.

I am a beginner, and this blade initially helped me improve my game. However, after three months of training…

Я новичок и выбирал ракетку, скорее, по внешнему виду.

Очень доволен качеством, мне всё нравится.

My 12-year-old child plays in all-island competitions. He is very satisfied with the lightweight design and performance of the blade.

His performance improved drastically after getting this blade, along with Donic Bluestorm Z1 and Tibhar Evolution FX-P rubbers. Excellent product, worth the cost!

Excellent customer care and fast service from Tabletennis11. Received in Sri Lanka within 5 days of ordering.

Bu taxta kontrol masalasida juda ham zo’r. Tezlik ham yomon emas.

U Fan Zhen Dong ALC taxtasining barcha xarakteristikasiga juda ham yaqin.

One of the best blades I have ever used.

Thank you, TT11.

Good blade. Recommends you.

Requested blade of around 85g and received it.

Amazing service from T11.

After this blade, all others are funny.

I have four blades, and this is by far the best blade I have used. It elevated my game from a virtual beginner three months ago to an intermediate player.

It suits my game as an offensive player with a lot of control and feel.

The paddle feels very light in hand but still has a good amount of control. It’s comfortable to grip and easy to maneuver during games. The rubber is high quality and gives good spin on the ball. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this paddle. Highly recommend it for players of all levels.

Отличное основание.

Выполнено качественно, удобное и контрольное. Используется с накладками Tibhar Evolution MX-P с обеих сторон. Все здорово.

I rate this blade 5 stars. It has a lot of control and speed. I paired it with a V47 Rasanter BH and a Tibhar Aurus Prime FH, what a perfect combination, and I really enjoy it. Absolutely!

In general, this blade is offensive, suited for aggressive attackers with absolute control.

My ratings are:

Speed: 8/10
Control: 10/10
Feeling: 9/10

This is the best racket I have.

It is an amazing blade.

I have no words to explain this blade. It’s a blade out of this world.

The control is beastly, and there are many gears in this blade, meaning you can increase or decrease the speed with pure ease. Excellent for spinny loops and topspin if your timing and contact are good.

Not the best for chopping, only offensive play. It’s also great for different types of service.

The only disadvantage is that it’s quite expensive, but to be honest, it’s worth every penny.

Great wood and much cheaper than what they sell it for in my country.

Coming from the Andro Temper Tech OFF (5-ply all-wood blade, top plies tempered hardened with heat), I found this blade to be a bit lacking in feeling. Initially, I couldn’t tell whether I had made good contact with the ball when looping. I kept sending the ball long or into the net because I was too afraid to swing freely due to the lack of feedback/vibration from the blade. It took me about a month to get used to the lack of feeling compared to my old blade.

However, it is slightly speedier than my old blade and looping is quite effortless. I have found that my loop kills especially have more bite and speed. Because of this, I have started to have more confidence in that particular shot, whereas I used to use spin to force errors from my opponent.

The only other carbon blade I have owned is the Andro Treiber FO. The Boll ALC is not as hard and stiff as the FO, and I find the Boll ALC easier to play with.

The wings of the blade are quite sharp, but that has never really bothered me as my hands are already very calloused from other racket sports. However, sometimes the inside of my middle finger will get a bit sore when doing too many backhand drills. Other people may want to sand the wings down.

The handle is quite slim (slimmer than my old blade). I really like the handle as my hands are not large, and I’ve found that flicking is more comfortable with this blade. I feel like I have more control due to the slim handle. I ordered the flared handle.

The finish of the blade is very good, of course. However, after about 2 months of play, I did notice that the blue on the handle started to fade a bit (although I take that as an indication of hard work and training).

Amazing blade!

Excelente madero.

Fast wood with good control.

The blade is a good choice for topspin players.

The product was good, and the fast replies to my queries were even better.

Keep up the good work, TT11!

The Timo Boll ALC blade excels at generating topspin. With a simple brush stroke using any medium to hard rubber, the ball dips sharply into the opponent’s court.

However, blocking and smashing performance is average.

Chopping is also a viable strategy with this blade.

My journey with TT11 started with the Donic Waldner Legend, transitioning to the Xiom Axelo, then the Donic Ovtcharov Carbospeed, and eventually to the Butterfly Viscaria and Butterfly Timo Boll ALC. Except for the TB ALC, my rubbers remained constant: Tenergy 05 on the forehand (FH) and Tenergy 80 on the backhand (BH).

In summary, the transition was from pure “speed” to a balance of “speed + control.” This combination was further enhanced with the TB ALC when paired with Dignics 05 on the FH and Tenergy 80 on the BH.

This combination of arylate carbon on the blade and spring sponge on the rubber feels magical. While looping, I feel like my bat can hold the ball for a few nanoseconds (perhaps), allowing me to decide what to do with it—what we might call “control.” Once released, the ball travels like a bullet.

One thing I would highlight is that the ball trajectory with the Dignics 05 side tends to fall towards the second half of the table rather than the center. I attribute this more to the rubber than the blade. However, this can be corrected with practice and skill enhancement.

Don’t get me wrong, Dignics 05 is an awesome rubber. Overall, it’s an amazing experience, and I am enjoying it.

Muy buena paleta, ¡de una calidad de 10!

I have not tried many blades because of the price; however, Timo Boll ALC is the one that has adjusted to my style and technique. Topspin of forehand and backhand is very easy to do, even the blocks at short and medium distances. The only downside to this blade is the price.

I used this blade with Tenergy 05 FX on both sides and it was very difficult for me to control serves with a high amount of spin. Nonetheless, I changed Tenergy Rubbers for Yasaka Rakza 7 and Xiom Europe V, and it was a good decision for me because my level improved.

Very controlled blade, a tad slower than my ZJK ALC.

Beautiful looking blade. Low arc and fast, but not too fast.

It has a crisp feeling, and combines well with high throw rubbers like T05 to compensate for the low arc trajectory. However, T05 is spin sensitive, so block play and net game suffer.

After playing for three months at an intermediate level, I am writing this review.

Topspin: 5/5, but requires good technique, otherwise the ball goes out of the table.
Back/Sidespin: 5/5
Chop: 4/5
Block: 5/5
Loop: 5/5

If you play with a tight grip, you will lose control. The control is rated 3/5; it is not at all forgiving. You can dominate equal or lower-ranked players, but if you are not in your zone, you can lose points quickly due to the blade’s unforgiving nature.

Es perfecto, muy lindo. Lo tengo en Tomada St y es muy cómodo, con un gran punto dulce.

Lo uso con una Joola Xplode al derecho y Tenergy 05fx en revés. Muy bueno, sin duda me lo compraría otra vez.

Bu zamana kadar oynadığım en iyisi kesinlikle. Hücum yaparken off+, savunmada off- gibi.

This blade is outstanding. I have it paired with the Evolution MXP on both sides.

There is loads of power, super spin, and close to the table play is very controllable. This racket will do everything you ask it to do. It is only limited by your personal skill level.

It is my pleasure to deal with you.

I love this blade; I’ve had it for a few weeks already. It offers great control and decent speed. If you angle it right, you can hit the ball pretty fast.

I love the ability to control the ball at any position. There’s lots of dwell time and lots of spin on serve. Slow topspin is so easy to execute; I’ve had much success returning serves with slight and slow topspin on both backhand and forehand.

I’ve never had this much confidence before. I love it.

Nice weight distribution.

Excellent feeling when hitting the ball.

Highly recommended.

Сначала показалось подделкой. Но после пары тренировок - просто супер!

Контроль отличный, скорость тоже достаточная, вращает отменно. С 05 - бомба. Быстрые ноги, и у Вас не будет конкурентов!

It is the best blade I have.

Отличное основание! Думаю, нужно научиться пользоваться им в совершенстве.
