The Inzone Flame blade is a high quality TT blade made for children. It is available with handles that fit hands from around 7 to 14 years of age. The blade is quite light (usually between 70 and 75 grams). It has a soft touch and a great feel of the ball.

It is a flexible and easily played allround blade, but still stiff enough to sustain even the hardest shots from almost all children below the age of 13.

Facts:

5-layer veneer.
5.4 mm thick.
Combination of limba and ayous layers.
Highest quality.
3 different handles. All rather slim including an XS-handle.
Made in Sweden.
Around 73 grams.

At beginner level you need a flexible blade that is easy to handle and gives a good ball contact also at low impact shots. When your level increases - depending on your style of play - you might need a blade that supports the increased power in your game.

The Inzone Flame is made with slightly smaller handles that our other blades - and there is even an XS version too. It is a flexible allround blade, but for most children - at least up until early teenage years - it has enough stiffness for even their hardest shots. Depending on learning curve, style of play, amount of practice, physical development and hand size, the Inzone Flame would be the right choice for children until they reach an age around 12 to 14. At that point it might be time to go for a blade with full size handle and finding the right blade for your specific style of play. Until then the Flame blade is a good choice.

Inzone Flame

The Inzone Flame ALL blade goes well with a broad range of rubbers, but since it is a flexible blade made for children that don't hit THAT hard yet, it is usually best to combine it with rubbers with the same purpose.

It could be our Evolve and Spin rubbers for the less experienced TT players, and the Vizion rubbers with 1.7 mm sponge for the more experienced players. Even the 2.0 versions of the Vizion LC Spin and AR+ could be good solutions, but we rarely recommen to combine the Flame blade with the 2.0 version of Vizion LC Power and AR Accel, since they are suited for harder impact.

At Inzone we have 6 different handle types, and choosing the right one isn't always easy. Not all handles are available for all blades and rackets - eg. Flame Series is made for children, while Safe Series are made for adults, and both are only made with the recommended handles.

Here is a little information about the different kinds of handles:

STRAIGHT. The straight handle is completely straight, almost squared and quite thick. It supports a firm grip and usually best fits in rather big hands. For children this is rarely a good solution.

STRAIGHT (SLIM). The slim version of the straight handle is more rounded and supports a more loose and flexible grip. It fits most hands, but for men with big hands it could be too small, and for children up to around 12 years of age it could be too big.

FLARED. The flared handle supports a firm grip, and fits the hands of most adults.

FLARED (SLIM). The slim version of the flared handle fits most children from 10 to 14 years of age.

FLARED (XS). The XS version of the flared handle fits most children up to around 11 years of age.

ANATOMIC. The anatomic handle is mostly used by men with big hands as an alternative to the flared handle.

A table tennis racket consists of 1 blade and 2 rubbers (usually one red and one black). All Inzone rackets are assembled in our workshop i the Inzone Table Tennis Center in Aarhus. So when you buy an Inzone racket, it is ready to use at delivery.

It you decide to make your own combination of blade and rubbers, we can also assemble the racket for you. Just leave a note when you make the order. Racket assembly is free of charge.

You are of course also welcome to assemble the racket yourself, or to buy rubbers and blades to combine with equipment from other brands.

Anyway: All Inzone rackets are delivered fully assembled and ready to use, but if you order separate rubbers and blades, you need to tell us to assemble the racket - if that's what you want.

We use real table tennis glue, which means that the rubbers can easily be removed from the blade. This is a big advantage, since this makes it possible to change the rubbers on the racket. The life time of the blade is usually many years, while the rubbers will need to be replaced sooner.

During your development as a player, your needs change as your level increases. This way you don't have to change the complete racket, but can upgrade the rubbers - this is usually quite a bit cheaper.
