Lemuria ZB (LMZB)

Update (and correction) to 07/21: Whenever I read an interesting review about a butterfly blade, I am immediately curious about the replica of Lemuria. I bought this blade (which looks like a naked Bty. Harimoto Tomokazu Innerforce ALC) on "aliexpress.com" in China at the "Table Tennis Store." Facts: FL handle, club face 152 x 158 mm , Structure (probably): Lymph + Ayus + ALC + Ayus + ALC + Ayus + Lymph. My, selected blades (- extra light!) with ST and FL handle (... for average hands!) weighs 82 & 85 g. Although the blades are basically very well made, I removed the slightly sharp edges (on the club face and on the handle) with sandpaper. Since the opportunity arose, I compared it (at my dealer) with the original Butterfly Harimoto Tomokazu. Amazing !!! The original is about the same speed, a bit harder / more direct and thus gives better ball feedback. - the difference is probably due to the outer veneer of the Lemuria blade, which is a little thicker than the original. (... whereby the ALC layer underneath probably has less influence!) CONCLUSION: For less than 30 € you get a really good, medium-hard blade with good control. - personally, I had the best playing feeling when using rubbers up to 45 degrees sponge hardness! Update/Addendum: this blade is very similar to the Palio R57, which costs only half as much! For playing close to the table, the ZLC Version is the better choice!

Mine is 88 gr and i paired it with dhs goldarc 5 (47,5 fh, 42,5 bh). Great spin, really good control but as you can supossed not speedy blade. For me, nice blade to play close to the table. Really easy to make the first topspin, even against backspin balls. Give a lot of rotation. It vibrate a little, but feels confortable to me. If you hit hard the ball then you’ve extra speed cause the activation of the carbon layer. Seems like have good craft ending, also materials used seems to be fine. I do not try yet the Harimoto original alc inner, but this one from lemuria for me worth the money (if you’re looking for this blade features). The structure of the lemuria it’s not the same of the original, this one is: limba-ayous-alc-ayous. I’m really happy with this one.
