Hi, I have both, with similar weights, the Timo Boll ALC has a much higher pitched sound, does that mean it's faster/stiffer?They are literally the same blade with a different handle. A Viscaria at 90g and one at 80g will play more differently that a ALC at 90g and a Viscaria at 90g.
Thanks for the clarification - I wasn't sure what kind of difference it made, but yeah my Viscaria tends to have a MUCH duller sound when hitting a ball on the bare blade... I may switch back to my trusty Timo Boll ALC just for the added stiffness, which should help me when blocking and further away from the table.I think the ALC also has a lighter handle, which is why perhaps it has a higher pitched sound because the blade is still heavier without the handle.
In that case, yes, your ALC is faster and stiffer
