Butterfly should rename it to Screamer.

That’s a good one! [emoji16]

Hi! Do you know the wood composition? Is it based on the innerforce layer ALC with limba-limba-ALC-Ayous-ALC-limba-limba or ALC.s which is limba-spruce-ALC-Ayous-ALC-Spruce-limba or totally different?

As expected, it's the same blade as the IF ALC, same thickness, just slightly larger headsize: limba-limba-ALC-Ayous-ALC-limba-limba. Release date is Spring 2019 (whereas Dignics 05 is specifically set for May).

No info on the price, but I'd guess for ALC it should be 200USD

Abnormality when using?? Lol

I thought its hinoki outer ply

Head size is like Petr Korbel blade and the Maharu Yoshimura. Harimoto blade is 0.3mm thicker than MY blade. Butterfly stated that the larger head size size was due to MY wanted more dwell as might the same case with Harimoto.

Yea 158 x 152 mm, that's also why I like the Korbel as well as the Liu Shiwen ZLF.

I doubt that Butterfly will make commercial version of this paddle the same as is for the little screamer guy. I am 100% certain it will be top seller for the amateur/recreational players but the blade will be totally different with the specs. That is just standard practice for the Butterfly, same with the rubbers that are sold to the consumers. Totally different animal, basically scam.

 

[Konrad Bak]

sorry for my mistake, on video the grain of top ply looks like HINOKI
but here its limba.
If it will cost the same money as Garaydia ALC, must cop

 

[CoolPug7]

Its going to be more expensive than the original Innerforce ALC 5400 thb to be exact.

 

[CoolPug7]

sorry 5900 thb

This is scheduled for April 1st (no joke! Lol).

The RRP is €149.90, which I find amazing. I fully expected it to be over 200.

Either Butterfly are pricing it fairly reasonably in the hope people will spend more to get a “named premium blade”, or it’s just not as good as the other top end Butterfly blades.

Its not like Butterfly to be generous on pricing, so my gut feel is that it’s simply not as quality as some of the others.

I love the design, and might pick one up as a replacement for my VS Unlimited (which I like, but looking at something with a little more feeling).
