I have never torn any like this but the sponge does get damaged very easily when removing glue. Is the glue on here your existing layers that you were trying to peel? If so it looks like it was not applied very smoothly at all?
I currently play with Viscaria but also have a Q968 and an Ovt. I have also owned a provincial W968.
As has been said, they are all pretty different. The 968 I felt was controllable and powerful on FH but BH was not as easy to access for me. It was also slightly more head heavy and the handle a...
I understand it’s a minefield but revspin is just one source of wildly varying info and should be taken with a strong pinch of salt in my view.
The only way you’ll really know is to get a sheet (even a used one) and try it. The margins of difference are quite fine to me at my level (you may be...
You really need to read any of the hundreds of reviews before buying. Vega pro / T80 / T05H are all completely different in feel. If you like softer then it has to be FX as all others have identical sponge hardness but again 64/19/80 are all quite different in other ways such as arc. Do yourself...
So true - I have committed to this and have lost quite a few matches due to poor open ups that might have been pushed safely - gets harder when you miss a few not to revert to pushing. My biggest challenge however is looping long side/under serves - I still push 9-% of these :-((
Interesting - will try it. I was watching Benjamin Farahi, who has a great topspin hook, and his serve seems to focus on a gradual upwards arm motion from start to finish of serve where he rolls over the back of the ball rather than using the wrist?
I think they are similarly balanced blades, but due to the bigger handle on the Vis it will feel less head heavy - it’s one of the best balanced blades I’ve played.
