It has a decent speed and is one of the most controllable 7-ply blades you can get. It offers value for money at a very low price.

I paired this with the Galaxy Jupiter, one of my favorite set ups so far! It’s a slightly heavier blade, but the control and spin are great. Just make sure you clean your rubbers regularly. Otherwise, you’ll lose spin and loop due to the tacky Jupiter rubber, not the blade. I just ordered another one of these blades and am going to pair it with a different rubber on the backhand this time.

Nice blade. Paired with Chinese rubbers, it’ll make a good racket. I played with Butterfly’s Timo Boll All+ and there isn’t much difference, except for the sound it makes, which is kinda hollow.
