AL Hexa Carbon feels really nice on forehand and backhand with Tenergy 05 and 05FX in the max sponge. You can feel the vibrations on the forehand and backhand. It has a nice kick and really helps in sending fast topspins. The short game was better with 05FX, with 05 the push was a bit longer than expected, but the sponge is max.
Before that, it was a big mystery, since no review was anywhere and one of a few things written was that it was faster than Viscaria and similar feeling. Well, can´t say the top-end speed wouldn´t be faster, but the blade was controllable and the feeling was exactly what I would expect from the inner carbon blade. It does not have a metallic feel without touch for the ball from outer carbon nor a muted feel from pure wood.
The weight was 88 grams. Thickness is 5,5-5,6mm. Faster, but not so much different feeling than with Waldner Senso Carbon.
