Any updates how you went with the blade?

Hi, Has anyone compared Nittaku inner carbon vs Butterfly innerforce layer alc. Wondering how they compare for control, speed and spin? Which did you prefer? Thanks.

So which one do you like? Looks like the 301 is slightly deeper hold and similar hardness to the innerforce.

I recently tried the butterfly viscaria, to hard and to fast - back hand all over the place. Maybe an inner carbon blade, the carbon gets activated only on harder hits and tend to have more dwell time on the ball so more control and a bit slower . The nitakku inner carbon would be better or dhs...

Only on the forehand?? Just check and use your normal backhand and turn it over and use on the forehand side on the same shots and see if it does the same thing? That might help to see if its the rubber or if its just the blade?

Did you glue the rubbers on? Maybe it could be this ?? - I had one rubber that had a bit of a lump of glue under it and the rubber was not glued on properly , it had a dead spot in that area - so reglued it and it was much better afterwards.

Thanks for the recommendations. :)

Does the Innerforce layer has as much control as the Korbel or less? I noticed there is an older version innerforce which is around 5.7mm and the newer one innerforce layer 5.59/6.0mm? Which do you own? According to TTgearlab the newer one is faster. Thanks

No its doesn't have to be butterfly. What else do you recommend? I like the limba feel of the Korbel but wanted a bit more punch/speed without losing control. The problem with to much speed I suppose you lose control. I didnt like butterfly viscaria - to hard feeling and felt had no control, and...

Thanks, sounds like the innerforce is a good allrounder. Have you used the Nittaku carbon inner or Petr Korbel (japan) at all. Interesting in the Butterfly matrix they say the innerforce is similar speed to the Korbel. (10.6/10.7).

I bought mine on Amazon so not sure I could have chosen a weight as they don't advertise weight, I would have preferred around 88 grams. Amazon was significantly cheaper than other places including eBay

interesting, the more dense the faster it most likely be. Nittaku seems to have wide variance though , TT website measured there's at 82g and mine is 94g. To me to much variance. It would nearly like playing with a nearly different blade.

Mine is 5.7mm thick vs 5.5mm of the old version, I think it will be a little faster than the older model

But not to head heavy

My acoustic inner carbon was 94g, a bit of a heavy weight

How did you go with the Nittaku ACIC? Has it improved for you?

Thanks, so you have used both?
