Yasaka Reinforce AC

I am using it with Rakza XX on both sides. Blade weight is 82g, FL.

Can’t tell much about it because I have not played with this blade and other rubbers. But my impressions are that it can play with the Rakza XX that has the hardest sponge among the Rakza family and at the same time maintains control that is maintained in the Innerforce technology.

The handle is thinner in comparison to the Butterfly blades and, personally for me, gives more freedom in wrist movement during shots.

Overall, the outside layers of wood are thinner than on the Innerforce BT blades, so the blade should be faster than the Innerforce BT blades.

Previously played with a Harimoto ALC blade with Rakza 9/X, and if comparing this setup to the current one with Reinforce AC + Rakza XX, I can say that both maintain good control (Harimoto gives more feedback to the wrist when playing and is more flexible). The current setup has less feedback but is faster with the same amount of control.

Overall, the blade is worth the money, and I think that it is much cheaper than the BT blades with the same characteristics.
