About Shang Kun Hybrid ZC
Tibhar Shang Kun Hybrid ZC is a 2021 5+2 ZC inner table tennis blade made in Germany. It is ITTF-approved, classed power-offensive (OFF+), and uses inner Zylon-Carbon (ZLC) beside the core — speed of ZLC with a slightly softer first ball.
Factory figures: typical weight 87 g, thickness 5.8 mm. Handles listed: Flared (FL), Straight (ST), Anatomic (AN). Construction label Inner ZLC (5+2 ZC inner). Power-offensive play from mid-distance — heavy loops and finishing hits is the intended game.
Combined index: speed 92, control 84, stiffness 86 (official mapping 91 / 84 / 86). Inner-fibre blades typically feel a little rounder than the outer-fibre equivalent at the same speed.
Community score 8.6 / 10 from 20 reviews. Indicative European street price €130. Compare Shang Kun Hybrid ZC with other inner zlc 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.
