The Ultra Allround is a medium-fast all-round table tennis blade crafted from a classic wood combination of top-tier quality materials. Its construction includes outer layers made of medium-hard Limba wood, a soft Ayous core layer, and intermediate layers of Koto wood. With a striking blade size of approximately 155 x 152 mm, this blade exhibits high sensitivity in ball reception, comparable to more expensive German and Swedish frames. The handle is designed with foam application, ensuring an excellent grip and comfortable feel.

The versatility of the Ultra Allround blade makes it adaptable for use by players with various playing styles. Whether you're a controlled all-round player or an offensive player, this blade caters to both styles, offering a blend of control and potential for attacking shots.

The Ultra Carbon 2021 features the same veneer construction as the original Ultra Carbon. It consists of five wood veneers and two carbon layers, with a total thickness of approximately 6.1 mm. The outer veneers are made from Limba, the intermediate veneers from Koto, and the central core from Ayous. The carbon layers are made from carbon fibre, using the thinnest and softest type of carbon.

One of the main changes in the Ultra Carbon 2021 is the use of solid Hinoki for the handles. This makes the blade slightly heavier on average, at around 86 g, but improves its overall balance by reducing the head-heavy feel. The handles also provide greater stability.

While the handles are not quite as stable as those of the Classic Carbon, they are noticeably more stable than those of the original Ultra Carbon. They are therefore well suited to players with normal-sized or larger hands, but may not be comfortable for players with smaller hands. For this reason, the blade is generally not recommended for children.

Many offensive blades in the Lion range tend to be relatively head-heavy and feature slimmer handles. The Ultra Carbon 2021 provides an excellent alternative for players who prefer a more balanced blade without sacrificing offensive performance.

The Ultra Carbon 2021 combines the key advantages of carbon blades with a surprisingly soft and sensitive feel. It offers excellent control and is highly forgiving of technically imperfect shots, making it easier to maintain consistency during fast offensive play.

Unlike many carbon blades, however, the Ultra Carbon 2021 does not feel excessively stiff or hard. Its relatively soft impact feel allows players to execute passive strokes, including underspin, with greater ease. It also provides excellent elasticity, supporting both powerful offensive shots and spin-oriented play. As a result, it is only slightly stiffer than comparable fast all-wood blades.

The Ultra Carbon 2021 is particularly well suited to inverted rubbers and short pips. Long pips or anti-spin rubbers can also be used on the backhand, although they are best suited to close-to-the-table play.

Overall, the Ultra Carbon 2021 is designed for modern offensive table tennis with an emphasis on spin, control, and versatility. It is slightly slower than the Classic Carbon and is therefore best classified as a controlled offensive blade. Its combination of carbon stability, all-wood-like touch, and excellent elasticity makes it a strong choice for players who want speed without sacrificing feel and spin potential.
