The custom model that Butterfly made for Kong Linghui

Try it and find out

Sriver was introduced before speed gluing was a thing, and in the era of the 38mm ball

Sriver is just quite slow and unreactive. The topsheet has some usable grip but coming from a real attacking setup with carbon and fast rubbers, Sriver will feel more like a piece of basement gear. Rozena is priced similarly to Sriver but it is essentially a "small tenergy" in performance and in...

Tried it and didn't like it. Fast and snappy feeling rubber but felt to me as though the topsheet didn't really grip the ball unless I was very aggressive.

You want a loud rubber then go get the Desto F3 Bigslam 😉

DHS has a Hurricane Wang/W968 and Stiga has the Dynasty Xu Xin. LSD is still new but I can imagine that Butterfly might replace the ZJK line with LSD branding

Other folks more knowledgeable about the codes and tags on Butterfly blades can bring more knowledge but I believe usage of the old uneven kidney style logo was phased out in 2014. Edit- according to this thread...

This looks legit, its just an older version since it has the first generation silver tag with the previous logo. Newer Primorac Off- have the holographic lens on the backside of the handle and the new symmetrical style logo.

I suppose it is kind of convenient that LSD has been seen using Viscaria, since the ZJK blades have the same handle sizing and both have been serving as the medium sized handle option between the smaller Timo Boll series and larger FZD

Time for Michael Maze style secret blade modification

I think that once you find a blade you really like, you should try and keep it. Perhaps anatomic handle style or grip tape might be the answer. I think it might also be an option to request a custom handle from a blade craftsman

Nexxus Superselect and Rasanter R, especially in 45 and 48, are popular green rubbers but they are very fast and reactive rubbers meant for experienced attackers. Hexer Grip (45) is a bit slower and steadier than the equivalent hardness Nexxus and Rasanter rubbers but it is still a bouncy and...

"Alessandro's V Created by V-Grip pioneer Alessandro G..." "This grip improves both offense and defense, and is considered as one of the more innovative grips of modern Table Tennis." I don't see how any of this is credible

P Korbel has kind of a small handle. I think the allwood Primorac is a much more suitable option

After Dima jumped ship to Butterfly, Donic has been needing another famous John to put a name back on their own Viscaria clone

Sriver is already pretty slow. Have you considered trying the softer siblings Sriver EL or FX?

I think it was Chen Weixing that said P1 in 0.5 has the perfect combo for spin manipulation and spin continuation for the celluloid ball, but JSH was playing P1 and Dtecs in 1.6 just for the spin capacity when playing short at the table. But any long pip in 1.6 has almost zero passive reversal...

If you have a spare racket you could it both of them on at the same time and see the differences yourself

Regular Grass or Grass DTECS? They are very different. Vanilla Grass plays more like a conventional moderate pace and moderate grip lp and Dtecs plays faster flatter and slicker.
