Offensive Blades

The Harimoto ZLC represents a leap forward in blade technology. Just like the popularity of the Harimoto ALC, it was obvious that adding this blade technology to the ZLC would make this blade an instant seller for the chinese penhold market. There are two main qualities that make the ZLC fibers a great attacking blade.

The first quality is the high rebound area improves overall contact in the sweetspot for more control and feel on soft and high power shots. The second quality is the dynamic feedback that is created because of how the blade layers are constructed to get the maximum feel.

Those 2 qualities are the reason this blade will appeal to a high range of players that play varying styles. The average weight of this blade is 85 grams, with a blade thickness of 5.7mm. The reaction is 10.5, and the vibration is 9.5, with a blade size of 161x150mm.

The rubber recommendation for this blade is the Dignics 05. For the Dignics line of rubber the 05 has the highest trajectory, and lands the shortest distance on the table. The 80 has the second highest, and lands in the middle of the table. The 64 has the lowest trajectory, and the longest travel path landing deepest on the table.

To add more grip to this blade you can get the Soft Grip Tape. It provides grip and comfort to the racket handle. Another great choice for racket care is adding side tape to the blade. It can protect the wood in the event it is hit on the table.

DONIC ORIGINAL TRUE CARBON INNER – the inside secret, for all players who are looking for control but also for the acceleration to suddenly attack in decisive moments. Materials and method of production are absolutely first class: DONIC have used the same high-quality plies as in the DONIC ORIGINAL TRUE CARBON, which is already a classic.

What the TRUE CARBON INNER adds is a completely new carbon ply, Hybrid Aramid Carbon, which is not placed under the outer plies but completely embraces the inner plies. The result is a softer touch and even more control than with the TRUE CARBON, at slightly less speed.
