About Harimoto Tomokazu Innerforce ALC

Harimoto Tomokazu Innerforce ALC keeps the Innerforce recipe (ALC beside the core) with a 158×152 mm face, about a millimetre larger than Innerforce Layer ALC. Combined speed 87, control 88, stiffness 73.

It is not Viscaria. Outer ALC is the other fork. Super ALC / Super ZLC / ZLC Harimoto printings are different fibres. This SKU is the inner ALC that European shops still restock.

Pick Layer ALC if you want the volume Innerforce spare. Pick Harimoto if you want that larger head and a named wood you can still buy. Compare them on the Innerforce series page before you pay twice.

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.
