Recently I saw that most of the team use Timo Boll. 
What is the reason of using it? What are the benefits? Dan, you’ve tried many rackets so you know better the differences.

I have an Ovtcharov ALC, I like it.

Hey Petet, The Timo Boll ALC is an extremely popular blade that many players use and has been popular for a long time, even many years before when it was called the Boll spirit. It’s a well balanced, fast blade but still maintains enough control, many players like the feeling of it and find it comfortable without too much adjustment. 
But with equipment it’s a very personal thing and everyone likes different things, for me personally I’ve always like the feeling of stiffer blades like the Cybershape and also blades with the carbon closer to the centre which offers more control and a bitless speed, for me that’s the feeling I like and the Cybershape fits this perfectly for me. Hope that makes sense, the Ovtcharov blade is also a great blade and the most important thing is that you like the feeling and are comfortable with it 🙂
