he must have great saves to get these blades hehehe...i envy him...anyway, is there any other brands that uses the ZL material aside from Butterfly?ALC is arylate carbon and i think some brands also use arylate materials in their blades, how about Zylon (ZL)?

ZXi has Zephyllium, a new material trademarked by Xiom Corp. But I guess that Zeph material is designed to rival Zylon from Butterfly.

I've never tried Zylon blades nor Zeph blades so I don't know if they play the same. I've read though that the ZXi is a better blade than TB ZLC as it quite provides a better feel. But personally I am not sure as I haven't played both. Anyway, I will now go to allwood blades(coming from TB ALC and Viscaria) for better feel.

But for the OP, I would choose the TB ALC as it is a safer blade to use with fast rubbers such as Tenergies.

I'd go with the Timo Boll ALC, 7 plies of madness and is considerably lightweight.
