Andro Synteliac

1400hz is quite a lot for inner carbon. Did you also measure the weight of the blade?

 

[jk1980]

I have to disagree. I had Zoom AZXi with about 1400 Hz and the TMXi is similar.

Yes, 85 gram.

Good news for friends of the straight handle, all three SYNTELIAC blades are now also available in ST.

I picked up a VCI with ST handle recently (87g), had a few sessions with it. Don't do a lot of reviews these days, but initial impressions are very good. Quality is high, speed isn't overwhelming but quick enough, feel is traditional limba, sweet spot is good, no hollow feeling.

Slightly softer and slower than a BTY Innerforce ALC, quicker and more solid feeling than Waldner Senso Carbon / Ma Lin Soft Carbon.

ST handle is a little too thin for me, will adjust over time, but leads to being slightly head heavy. Good blade, nice alternative in the inner carbon space.

Yes, I have now played a couple times with the above mentioned blade.
The blade has a surprisingly soft touch and enables very spinny, controlled shots without any lack of power.
I have played too many different blades recently to make any reasonable direct comparison, but I think the closest competitor is the BTY ALC in all it´s different guises, and the SYNTELIAC feels considerably softer than those that I´ve played with (mostly a few grams harder than my new blade).
The emphasis is on spin, I think, and the blade works well with rubbers of different hardnesses.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, for me the Rasanter R48 works best.

I have rarely played with a blade that makes me feel every shot like this one does.

Can you compare with Joola Zhou Qihao 90?

Do any of the Andro Synteliac blades offer great control?

 

[Airoc]

Well, what is control then?
For example, my VCO blade gives me excellent feedback and I can play every shot with confidence. In relation to the speed/power of this blade that for me is perfect control. I would most probably struggle to play equally confident with a slow 5-ply all wood, so that would offer me less control.

Hello everybody, I resumed table tennis 2 years ago following an 8-year break.
I haven't experienced the transition with the new balls but I find them much worse than the old ones.
With my initial equipment (tibahr IV L light contact with 2 Impuls speed in 2 mm), I found that I lacked power.
So I opted for a Donic classic allround with Impuls powersponge and GTT40 both in 2mm.
Unfortunately I can't adapt to the GTT40 on the backhand.
My playing style is based on a good serve with lots of spin variations and placements and on a forehand topspin
with curved trajectory and rotation.
Being used to following technical developments, I discovered your synteliac range.
I am particularly interested in the VCI which I imagine associated with 2 Impuls or Hexer powersponge in 2mm.
Unfortunately, there is still little content on this wood apart from this one:

.
Yesterday I tested a BTY Timo Boll ALC with 2 Tenergy 05 FX boosted by paraffin in 1.9mm and I felt ease in the mid-range game.
I like the Andro brand and so I wanted to know the feelings of players who have used Timo Boll ALC or any other ALC wood compared to Synteliac VCI.
Thank you in advance for your answers.

Andro Synteliac VCI is great. You should try it

Who knows the composition of VCI? Hurricane Long V type?

 

[Airoc]

Thank you in advance for your answers.

At an equal weight Boll ALC should feel a little more direct than the VCO, which in theory means even more direct than the VCI, whereas I think the VCO offers better feedback than the ALC, and again in theory the VCI even better.

I have not played with the VCI yet, though.

The Powersponge rubbers are very soft, the GTT is also only 40 degree sponge hardness but at the same time reduced in power (or speed glue effect or whatever) and aimed at beginners. I think that might explain why you struggle with it?

I used H5 long Commercial 70%, Layer ALC 82-95 grams, Dima ALC 80-89 grams, Haribo ALC 83-94 grams, Shang Kun AC and many more and this blade reminds Innerforce AL. The Volteema is maybe an equivalent of Vectran? I don't know but there is something special when I used this blade. It is not the spinniest but control-speed ratio is very good, it is slower than all blades but allows you to put more speed because the curve of the ball is straight but the trajectory is short like Innerforce AL and sound is so soulful

uhm...doing really my best to understand this.....sorry, I really tried.

..... is slower than all blades but allows you to put more speed because the curve of the ball is straight ....

uhm, wait .... wut?!

.... sound is so soulful

....that is....groovy


Still made me smile though

Hurricane long 5 commercial has characteristics written on their card, and 70% is quite rare.
I had more than one blade, I can't remember all blades but there is big difference between 82 grams and 95 grams of layer alc so I put the margin of the weight.
You probably didn't try inner alc composition and they all have high throw except Dima ALC and very curve trajectory with soft and medium and hard rubbers so the highest impact and gear is very high and long and it is easier to overshoot the table when you didnt close the racket. Victas Zx In had the same straight trajectory like Andro Synteliac VCI but it was faster than Andro. If you don't understand there is information from real legend

I have about 8 different Inner ALC blades currently (really need to start selling some stuff actually), so I do know how an Inner ALC blade feels like. I also know that the blade doesn't determine the curve/throw of the ball but the rubber is. The characteristics of a blade determine rebound speed, hold and vibration, but let's not go into too much detail here as this is a topic related to Andro Synteliac blades

Yes, textile underlayer is a great virtue. We have just got lp with an ultra thin textile sheet underneath, so good so nice.
