About C-Inner
Nittaku C-Inner is a 2020 5+2 carbon inner table tennis blade made in Japan. It is ITTF-approved, classed offensive (OFF), and uses inner Arylate-Carbon (ALC) closer to the core — more dwell than outer ALC, less harsh on the first touch.
Factory figures: typical weight 86 g, thickness 6 mm. Handles listed: Flared (FL), Straight (ST), Anatomic (AN). Construction label Inner ALC (5+2 carbon inner). Offensive close-to-table and mid-distance topspin is the intended game.
Combined index: speed 88, control 88, stiffness 80 (official mapping 87 / 88 / 80). Inner-fibre blades typically feel a little rounder than the outer-fibre equivalent at the same speed.
Community score 8.6 / 10 from 25 reviews. Indicative European street price €130. Compare C-Inner with other inner alc OFF blades on TableTennisReview.

Handles
Handles listed for this SKU: Flared (FL), Straight (ST), Anatomic (AN). Handle shape does not change the ply recipe, weight class or Combined index.
- Flared (FL)
- Straight (ST)
- Anatomic (AN)
- Flared (FL)
- The usual European shakehand handle. The flare fills the palm and locks the blade in; it does not change the ply recipe.
- Straight (ST)
- A straight handle is easier to rotate in the hand — the usual pick for combination rackets and some two-wing loopers who change grip mid-rally.
- Anatomic (AN)
- An anatomic handle follows the palm. Same wood as FL/ST on the same SKU; pick it if that shape already fits.
