Pretty clear OFF- speed. Definitely faster than the Yasaka Silver All Wood, but slower and more controlled than many ALC carbon blades. I can still loop mid distance from the table since my technique and physical ability is good enough. It does take a bit of effort to loop far from the table, especially if I'm out of position, but there is a lot of arc and safety when doing so.
This blade has good feedback and feel, as a lot of reviewers online have said. The penhold head size is actually quite good. Similar to the Yasaka penhold head size/shape. The blade feels slightly heavy due to the hollow handle, but I didn't really notice too much of a difference for speed and reaction time. More flexy compared to a lot of other carbon blades (Butterfly ALC blades are stiffer), which makes the arc of the ball higher. Forgiving for loops, but not as forgiving for smashes. On passive blocks, the ball pops up slightly and lands deep when blocking compared to stiffer blades. Opening loop against underspin is easier than stiffer blade, of course.
Including the bulk order discount, this blade is a steal for the amount of money you pay. Can't go wrong with it. Recommended for any intermediate players.
