Ovtcharov Innerforce ALC

Developed with Germany's Dimitrij Ovtcharov. Thicker and slightly larger than the Innerforce Layer ALC for higher reaction speed and a stronger sense of power.

💡 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

An inner build with reaction of 11.7, 20th of 45 — high for the type.

The 6.2mm thickness explains it: thickness restores what the inner placement takes away. Against Innerforce Layer ALC.S, also inner ALC (5.5mm, reaction 10.1), 0.7mm of thickness accounts for 1.6 of reaction.

Vibration of 10.5 is also high for an inner blade, so expecting a soft inner will mislead you. This is designed to combine the brushing room of an inner build with power close to an outer one.

₩195,000 is reasonable for this level. But if your reason for choosing inner was to reduce return, this points the wrong way.

What the numbers say

Inner 5-ply + 2 Arylate-Carbon plies 6.2mm. Its reaction of 7.8 ranks 16 of 46 blades, on the high side. It is on the stiffer, less 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.
