https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1205832579486628&id=123527221050508 Stiga have gone all arty. Full movie and announcement on 31st December.

Not this time! I did expect that when I saw the listing, but it's coming from Bath. I think it might be someone else on this very thread. The Viscaria Myth is pretty interesting in itself. Obviously it's a popular blade, and original ST handles are super rare, and then we have the separate...

There's a lot of info out there about both blades. As a quick summary, the Clipper is stiffer, softer, smaller sweet spot but more feeling. I don't think the speeds are so different overall, but Viscaria is a bit bouncier in the short game. You might find that some adjustment is needed for...

If you like P1 on the Clipper, you'll like it on the Viscaria. You might notice a slightly sharper feeling on impact and a bit less feedback in general, but that would be the case with any rubbers when you move from Clipper to Viscaria.

Can you post a link please?

Ha ha! Mega. And it turns out that he can!

I really didn't want to like this blade (my anti-Stiga bias is showing, I know), but it has grown on me in the last few sessions. The wings are still intrusive for me, but beyond that it plays really well and has a mix of characteristics that suit my game a lot. It has a predictable short game...

This isn't serious. If he was serious, the blades would be standing on their handles in a darkened room with a purple mood light.

Here's a link to some pictures reportedly taken by officials at a Chinese Super League event recently: http://www.sundns.org/discuz/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=362897&extra=page%3D1 Rakza X on the BH side now.

The Viscaria myth gets worse every month. Someone is selling an "old silver tag" on eBay for £485 at the moment. Old. Silver. Tag.

My question - what did you think of Stoke?

+1, straight out of the box it has a slick surface like a 4 year old worn celluloid ball. The sound I can get used to but the greasy feel is tougher. Of the four main ball types (seamless, chinese seamed, nittaku premium, G40+), this is the one that I struggle to adapt to the most when switching.

Well, £30. With a bit of an errrr on postage - are you really from Aaaaaaarland?

And that's more of a visual thing. You were bang on the money really - it's definitely an off- blade. Good touch and feel in the short game but it gets fast with a bit more effort. I know Stiga place this below the Infinity for speed but from memory I'd say the Celero is a bit faster overall...

Had a few hours with it tonight, and rok was right about the stiffness - surprisingly stiff and hard for a thin-ish 5-ply with limba outers. The speed surprised me too - quite a bit faster than I'd thought.

Mine arrived yesterday. 89g, ST handle (Classic). The quality is OK. Handle is good, metal labels are nice. The core has a join (not a real problem - lots of manufacturers do this), and so has the top ply (about 2 inches in from one edge, on both sides of the blade (I'm not a fan of this...

Just that they seem to lack initial catapult, or bounciness. A feature, not a bug - but on slower, softer blades they annoy me in comparison with my usual rubbers. I would adjust given time of course, but I tried them on bouncier blades and prefer them there.

It's: limba - some dark wood (possibly mahogony, walnut) - probably ayous core 5.5mm thickness 157x150 ~ 86g (tak9 shows a range of 79g-91g)
