Butterfly Timo Boll ALC Table Tennis Blade - Arylate-Carbon Fiber Blade - Professional Butterfly Table Tennis Blade - Available in an, FL, and ST Handle Styles - Made in Japan

The Butterfly Timo Boll ALC is the attacking player's dream blade. Designed in conjunction with former World #1 Timo Boll, the Timo Boll ALC blade offers great speed as well as heavy topspin, all with a high degree of control and feel. The ALC plies help dampen vibration, allowing for ambitious play with precise ball placement. Another asset of the Arylate-Carbon is that it is softer than regular carbon, increasing feel in the short game and increasing spin potential. As with all blades with some form of carbon, this blade also has a bigger sweet spot, increasing the margin of error and producing more consistent shots. Current professionals that use this blade are Germany's Timo Boll (Butterfly Dignics 09C on both forehand and backhand) and USA's Kanak Jha (Tenergy 05 Hard forehand and Dignics 05 backhand). To add more grip to this blade you can get the Soft Grip Tape, providing grip and comfort to the racket handle. Another great choice to extend the longevity of your racket is adding side tape to the blade, protecting the wood in the event it is hit on the table.
