ButterflyThe rich feel of inner carbon

Harimoto Innerforce Super ALC

Tomokazu Harimoto's signature model. The inner-force construction gives a rich touch and excellent control in a high-performance blade.

💡 Who this suits

Good reaction speed, well suited to attacking play, with a moderately crisp feel that works across a range of styles.

About this product

Reaction 11.4, vibration 9.5 — 0.6 and 1.0 below the Super ZLC version, at ₩120,000 less.

A vibration figure of 9.5 is low for a carbon blade at this price. The inner placement and the softer Super ALC material combine to take a lot of shock out of the hand, which costs less energy over long rallies.

At 5.8mm it is thinner than the Super ZLC version (6.2mm). Thin and soft together gives it the most room to brush the ball of anything in this line.

₩300,000 is not cheap, but set beside Fan Zhendong Super ALC at the same price (outer, reaction 12.1) the decision becomes clear: that one to finish by pressing through, this one to build and push with spin.

What the numbers say

Inner 5-ply + 2 Super ALC plies 5.8mm. Its reaction of 7.6 ranks 21 of 46 blades, mid-range. Flex sits in the middle. Based on the manufacturer’s published figures.

Reaction and vibration figures Butterfly publishes for 46 of its blades (official 1–15 scale). Further right means more reaction; higher means more vibration. Neither axis is "better" — they describe character. Other brands use different scales and are not mixed in.
