ButterflyTake control of the rally with heavy spin

Innerforce Layer ALC.S

An inner-fiber blade for players whose weapon is a heavily spun counter drive close to the table, improving both ease of spin and stability.

💡 Who this suits

Good reaction speed, well suited to attacking play, with a soft feel that makes it easy to control.

About this product

Reaction of 10.1 puts it 42nd — low on this list and the lowest in the Innerforce family.

A thin 5.5mm build and an inner placement both push return downward, and the result lands here. Vibration of 8.4 is low too, so contact is quiet.

The S denotes a softer specification, aimed a step below Innerforce Layer ALC. Carbon is present, but the design keeps the feel close to wood.

₩164,000. A reasonable place to retreat to when balls keep running long — and plainly short of power once you need it.

What the numbers say

Inner 5-ply + 2 Arylate-Carbon plies 5.5mm. Its reaction of 6.7 ranks 43 of 46 blades, among the lowest. It is on the more flexible side. 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.
