Nittaku Alulass

This blade offers an exceptional combination of feel, control, blocking ability, a generous sweet spot, and ample power. Despite its impressive qualities, there is a slight drawback: the outer layers display a degree of fragility. Nevertheless, this does not diminish the overall high quality of the blade.

The 84g version I once had played quite well. It supported loops really well and offered good control. Also, it was very useable in the straight game. However, for the price, there are quite a few better blades out there today.

This blade is very consistent, not too fast but still fast enough for most players. I used Nittaku Narucros EX Soft on both the forehand and backhand, which worked really well with the blade. You can play off the game and also block well. It’s also a good loop blade.
