This is the one that I tested first since this is the unique blade in the series and probably the first of its kind in the market that I know of. Having 3 composite materials in a single weave is unheard of for me for major brands. Other blades that I know in the market now are composed of alc and zlc on one side of the blade but never the combination of 3 materials. Overall construction of the blade is comparable to Butterfly’s higher end blades. The Korean factory that makes these blades has good quality control compared to the previous Chinese factory that makes their older blades. I forgot if Sunflex is the one that makes their older blades or some other OEM factories. The handle felt a little bigger than the TB ALC in some of the areas. The measurement is 25.66mm x 34mm at the base of the flared handle but in some area such as the neck of the blade, it felt a little bigger than the TB ALC. I have another blade from a different brand that was made under the same factory but it was a little smaller. The logo is made of thin metal covered by plastic probably to protect tarnishing due to sweat contact.
I used the Dynaryz AG, Rhyzer 45 TSP Spectol Red and Battle 2 rubbers for this test. I opted to use several rubbers because I needed to see the blade’s flexibility in using different kinds of rubbers for different styles of game plays. To be honest, the Vyzaryz Trinity felt weird when I was using it for the first time. It felt weird in the sense that the feeling is quite different and not because it felt bad. It was an unusual feel because the mix of zylon’s stiffness combined with some flexy feel of the arylate. It is hard to describe the feel but let me just say that it is not as stiff as the Vyzaryz Hybrid which only uses ZLC or any other ZLC or Super ZLC blades in the market but at the same time it feels much harder or has more stiffness than usual ALC blades.
For the speed, even though it is rated as Off, I can definitely say it is Off+ because I would placed it as a notch or 2 faster than Viscaria which we all know is rated as an Off+ blade but if you try to analyze it, it is not that fast compared to other known off+ blades. The TB ALC having the same composition as the Viscaria also felt slower than the Trinity and you can feel the difference in speed. The speed is fast not only because I was using the Dynaryz AGR on the forehand and Rhyzer 45 in the backhand but because despite using the Battle 2 at middle distance, I did not feel any reduction of speed. Although the Battle 2 was boosted, I felt that when I was using the Viscaria or TB ALC at middle distance I did feel some reduction in speed. People who tend to counter at far distance from the table will not have any problems with the Trinity because the speed and power it offers away from the table is fairly substantial. It maybe be a bit slower than the Zylon blades but it can hold on its own with such distance.
Despite some flex offered by the Trinity, it felt better as a power looping blade instead of a spinny, slow looping type of play. Sure there is flex due to the ALC component but I feel it would be wasted if you will not take advantage on what the Zylon’s stiffness is giving to increase the speed of your strokes. In that, I would recommend it to a player which has a bit higher level of skills to fully utilize the blade. When looping with the Dynaryz AGR or Rhyzer 45, it had a medium-high and long arc while with the boosted Battle 2 rubber, it had a medium-low and long arc.
Overall, it is multi-dimensional blade. It takes some time to fully adjust to the feel but it is an excellent blade. To say that the Trinity has the best of both worlds – zylon and alc characteristics, is an understatement. It felt very stable due to the combination of zlc and alc when blocking but when attacking, it has some flex of the alc that will let you loop in properly but also offers additional power due to the rigidity of the zylon fibers. When blocking, both fiber combinations also balances the control and speed. For short strokes or inside the table strokes, drop shots are not that fast and fairly controllable although the Freeze version of the Vyzaryz blades is so much better than this but bottom line, this is more related to skill rather than the blade itself. When used with short pimpled rubbers, the zylon fibers would give some rigidity to the blade enabling you to attack and receiving underspin properly but the alc fibers would offer some control on the shots. The Hybrid version was overall a better SP or LP attacking blade. Kudos to Joola for this new concept!

89 grams. Played with Rasanter 50 2.0 FH/BH in previous setup. Now currently using Skyline 2 Provincial 40 on FH and H3 Neo red on BH. Works well with tensors and Chinese. Chinese tends to have an odd threshold to creat certain spin and power but has a larger spectrum of gears. The Rasanter lost a bit of control in countering heavy topspin or receiving serves. There is still plenty of pace with slight tuned rubbers and a bit more glue. Speed - low off pace and ability to go to Off+ when wanted. Touch - very good with limbs but is a bit hard and sharper in the palm than the finger imo. Looping- above average, more suitable for loop drivers like Lim Jonghoon or Liang Jingkun. Blocking- super easy with Chinese and excellent with tensors when passive blocking. Countering- takes a bit of practice but you want to be over the ball, even when with no spin shots coming at you. Short game - easy to flip with hybrids and Chinese rubbers. Throw is medium low and requires good timing and bat angle for good strokes. Pretty easy to play on the table all the way to 3 meters. Maintains power and pace all while maintaining linear pace similar to wood racket but a little less input required. Similar to TBZLC Ive had a chance to try out, but much more linear and ability to spin and stay lower on arc than the TBZLC. Feels and arcs similar to ZJSLC, but a bit more stiff. Tends to be better with mid hard or tacky mid sponge rubbers.
the most balanced blade out of all composite blades and very good for allround offensive game, using it as my main tournament blade with hurricane 3 national and dignic 09c
Oh, great. Strong attack, very balanced defense and controls create a very stable feeling. Worth the money spent.
This is my daughter's blade, but I play with it from time to time. At first I was worried that it would be too hard to my taste (dense synthetic ply in an outer configuration) but actually the feeling is surprisingly soft. It feels more like ZLC than ALC (despite having both fibers weaved).
She paired it with Dynaryz ZGR on FH and CMD on BH. All this works perfectly together, allowing very fast loops on FH (but with very good control) and easy blocks on BH. Sweet spot is huge.
Only drawback is the weight, as Dynarys have heavy sponges.
Finish is excellent as you would expect at this price point.

mine weighs 89 grams. great finish and comfortable grip, stable feel and huge rebound spot. the game on the left is the trump card of this blade - twisting from the table is easy. pads Stiga DNA platinum BH, yinhe big Dipper 2 . the base has a gentle arc and is not very suitable for rotation more for strikes. highly recommend.
This blade is fantastic it plays like timo Boll zlc but with better spin and quality of your shots are a lot better because limba add some touch and curve to the ball
