He actually uses this blade and has achieved some decent feats with it.
It also has a reasonable price: 60+ euros on Dandoy

Technology: 7 layers: Kiri (inner), Hexamid Carbon (3+5) (which to me looks like regular Blue ALC judging by photos), Limba (2+6), Koto (1+7 outer)
Character: fast, but easy to control
Recommendation: For offensive players who expect a good dynamic

Please write a review if you have it

Interesting. Didnt he play the outer carbon one?

This composition seems to be the same as DHS Hurricane AC-b that Xiang Peng is currently using.

Funny enough is latest matches looked more controlled and really spinny. He won more points my pushing and playing awkward shots than with full attack style.

Xiang Peng blade is Limba Limba. Ander Lind blade is koto limba

I've got one, 89g. Its essentially just a chilled out take on the Viscaria formula. I think it strikes a good balance between the softer and deep feeling of limba/inner ALC blades like Harimoto ALC and IFLALC, and the crisp directness of an outer ALC like Viscaria

does this blade vibrate more compared to viscaria?

Does this Anders Lind Hexa carbon blade much more slower and less powerful compared to Viscaria ?

Thank you sir.
Best regards,

Its not slow but its definitely more along the lines of Innerforce Layer ALC/Harimoto characteristics than it is Viscaria. Though ymmv

Are you still using it? I'd like to know more, the combo koto limba seems promising to me.
How's the short game? Block? Forehand and backhand feel? The throw angle is like innerforce? or a bit crisper/ shaper because of the koto.

Its not very bouncy like an outer alc in the short game, not bad in this area. Blocking is alright but not quite as crisp and responsive as outer, more straightforward than inner limba construction. I think the trajectory is more or less comparable to a more flexible Viscaria structure, but there is a bit less support feeling from the inner construction

Based on composition, isn't it similar to Donic True Carbon Inner (Viscaria clone, but with inner carbon)?
Its basically the same. But comparing mine to a TCI side by side the fiber layer looks very different. Dunno exactly how the characteristics of TCI stack up vs A Lind though, but the fiber of TCI makes it seem that there is more contrast between the black and white fibers, whereas with the A Lind it appears just as a dark layer

I dont know the TCI structure, but Lind it's exactly the Viscaria and True Carbon structure, except that the cabon is a layer deeper, and is hexa carbon whatever that may be... Maybe this hexa carbon is what makes it different to TCI. Do you find Lind faster and stiffer? And control worst?

What made me interested is the koto-limba combo, it's not very traditional but it could work fine.

It's a cheap blade so I'll give it a try, im also a fan of Lind style even though i play nothing like him (quality and style wise). If its good ill keep it either for main blade or for testing rubbers.

It’s similar but that’s Koto ayous and the carbon is Kevlar whereas the Lind looks like regular blue ALC so the feeling is definitely different.
Funny thing is that the TCI and the ALHC are at around the same price range so at least the quality can’t be that different
