Virtuoso or Virtuoso+ with Hurricane 3

Nicky Franck · Mar 11, 2018

Quick question, what does a boosted H3 Neo fit best with, the Virtuoso off- or virtuoso+ and why? Is it a good combination anyway since I’ve heard people saying it fits best with tensor rubbers. I play with Clipper CR and want a slower blade with more feeling, is the V+ as fast or should V off- be good.

I think people have the wrong idea about how blades and rubbers work together. I also think I also think what the guys at OSP may have been saying when they said their wood blades work better with softer rubbers like ESN Tensor rubbers is, that the blades are not as fast as a Viscaria.

H3 has felt fine on both.

V+ is not as fast as Clipper. If you want a little downgrade in speed, a V+ would be fine.

If you want more of a downgrade in speed, then V Off-.

A 90 gram V+ or V- will be faster than a lighter one.

In the end it is really just about how much slower than your Clipper you want. Because those blades are really not too dissimilar to an Clipper. Just slower, more flex, softer and extra feeling.

I haven't tried these combos, but something tells me that H3 on these blade(s) will be painfully slow.

I used H3 on a Allround Evolution. It was fine. Both of those blades are faster than an Allround Evolution. And I have tried H3 on my V-; it was fine. My V+ is noticeably faster than my V- so I am pretty sure it would not be too slow. At least not if you are using H3 how it is meant to be used.
