Your Ask the Experts question was answered by Jinxin Wang. He is a Coach at Google in Mountain View, California. Coach Wang’s response is as follows:

Hi Byron,
 
The Zhang Jike ZLC is very balanced with high speed, good control, and a high reaction force.
 
The Zhang Jike Super ZLC is a great offensive blade, with more power, reaction and control. This is a great paddle if you prefer a more powerful, smash style.
 
The Timo Boll ZLC is great if you enjoy fast, offensive play. It has exceptional dwell time and great spin and speed, so is a great choice if you enjoy a more spinny, looping game.
 
Best,
 
Coach Wang
