Tiago Apolonia’s model
Butterfly Star Tiago Apolonia grants the name for this blade and is already using it at international tournaments. The ZLC fibers are placed closer to the core (Innerfiber technology) which, combined with the softer outer veneer, gives the blade increased dwell time, while maintaining the typical ZLC precision and punch. Apolonia ZLC is suited best for players looking for the feel of a spin-dynamic ZLC fiber blade with increased passive control.
