Friendship/729 Yellow Carbon ALC Table Tennis Blade

The Friendship/729 Yellow Carbon ALC is a high-performance 5+2 composite table tennis blade designed for modern offensive players who seek a strong balance of speed, spin, and control. Featuring Arylate-Carbon (ALC) fibers in a distinctive yellow carbon form, this blade delivers a refined offensive feel with enhanced stability and vibration control.

Constructed with a 5-ply wood core reinforced by 2 layers of Yellow ALC, the blade offers a controlled yet powerful response on contact. The arylate component softens the impact and improves dwell time, while the carbon fibers provide the necessary rebound speed for aggressive topspin attacks, counter-loops, and fast drives.

Compared to pure carbon blades, the Yellow Carbon ALC provides a smoother and more forgiving feel, making it easier to maintain consistency during high-speed rallies. Its enlarged sweet spot and balanced feedback allow players to play confidently both close to the table and from mid-distance, especially in topspin-oriented exchanges.
