Its like the Timo Boll series but with Limba instead of Koto.... Some of the same design consistencies between the technologies as the older blades too... They range in thickness, but not as thick as Photino or Amultart.





And there's the IOLITE NEO...

I think it is koto. Mizutani and Maze are Limba.

Different from Boll series(Outer layer+Zylon/Zylon Caron+Ayous+Center)

They look so freaking nice.

Is it just me or the 'Arylate' light blue word on the Iolite Neo look similar to the Arylate word on the galaxy blades?

Anyway I'm guessing these are all out offensive blades?

Man butterfly is really going out of their way to revamp their sales and marketing.  So taking the iolite and putting a new paint job on it.  This will be good for people who want the older looking version because i bet they'll drop the price on that one to try and run that version out so people can by the exact same newer blade at an inflated price

Its not Iolite with a new paint job. It is going to be the thickest BTY blade in the lineup at a monstrous 7.5mm and is advertised with a soft feel which is the opposite of the old racket. The handle is also now dimensioned more regularly instead of the super slim handle on the original. It looks to be a notch faster than Iolite and could be something of a Schlager Carbon with feel.

I don't know much about ULC or ZLF but the ZLC is just a Mizutani with a larger head and slightly thicker handle...unless the center ply is a completely different wood.

If iolite neo can come in under 90g with speed approaching SC and with more feeling, it could get interesting.

Alright my bad on the thickness part but isn't the old iolite also and AC blade? If they are making it softer are they using different woods?

if you like former timo boll forte maybe you will like it.

it has a lot of control. but i like a more crisp feeling. also felt not very solid.

It's for EJ. Perhaps this is a sign for a new rubber inline. The cross on that Iolite is not looking good for some 'camps'.

The old Boll Forte is a good blade, great control and has a lot of gears.  It has a hollow handle so it's rather light and a lot of feedback, are they keeping the new version hollow?

Yes, you are right! The center layer is different! Innerforce series' center layer is Ayous, non-joint one piece.
 
MJ and other Aralate-Carbon blades using Paulownia(Is it spell right?) as center layer, joint by couple small pieces.
