The color combination of the Innegra and Framiré is awesome. The Framiré looks like gold next to that layer. Is that it's natural color? Why did you/your customer choose Framiré instead of the normal Limba or Ayous?

Clearing out some of my collection. I'm the first owner of all blades offered. Brand: Butterfly Model: Freitas ALC Original box: Yes Weight: 88 gr Handle: FL Condition: Very good (barely used) Price: 110 EUR Pictures...

HL3 is much slower compared to Viscaria, HL5 might be a better fit. Rather thin handle, which not everyone likes. Ligna Off+ is not a slow blade. As it's all wood, it feels different then Viscaria and I think you miss the sharpness of the Arylate in the Ligna. So it might feel for you, that it's...

Dare to be different! Totally get the link to Rossi and Sweden. Nice job man. Not my style though, as I prefer the classic look. Interesting layers. How is Black Limba compared to regular Limba? 1230 Hz, is this like OFF- kind of speed?

I love the classic look!! Nice job.

Was surprised to see a thread with this tile and the name UpSideDownCarl, so I had to check it out. Not disappointed :) Point well made and so true in 9/10 equipment-info requests unfortunately. PS: Use the Nittaku Risoud Carbon and your ranking will increase by at least 200 points easily.

These blades sure look nice! The Innegra Inner sounds pretty decent and I like the layers , although personally I don't like white color handles.

Nice! Please keep us updated how it plays :)

Carl, what's the thickness of your R48?

Completely true and that's the downside asking advice on a forum/platform like this. Think we can all agree that your primairy source for equipment advice should be a coach from your own club. A person who actually knows your level of playing, knows your strenghts and weaknesses, your style etc...

So, before I post a question about equipment, you expect me to write aan essay on my technique, my experience with previous equipment, showing tons of footage of me playing, etc etc ? I have the biggest respect for you guys, as active members like you keep a forum alive and providing advice to...

I suggest to end this off-topic discussion, as this doesn't help the TS and/or other members interested in TS' question. Thanks. Let's get back on-topic. I'm surprised to see no one mentioned Vega X (or maybe I overlooked it). It feels softer than the 47.5 would suggest but still firmer...

Giving a rubber a certain speed-label depends on your reference. Many reviews lack vital additional information to make the review actually useful. I'm currently testing both Vega X (1.8mm) and Rakza Z (2mm)on a Hugo SAL. Only played approx. 5hrs so far, so still not enough playtime for a...

I disagree. The build quality of the SAL is actually very good. It's on the same level as BTY. Only remark I have, is that the wings are not sanded, but that's an easy and quick fix.

Used Infinity VPS for several years and still use it now and then. This is not an allround blade if you use EUR/JPN rubbers. Sure, as an all-wood blade it's not as fast as Boll ALC or other carbon/arylate blades, but if your gameplay is mainly attacking with topspin, it's a great blade. It gives...

HAL will be available mid July. SAL will be discontinued indeed.

Ah, this I understand

Anyone able to compare R48 and Rakza Z?

July 01 for us yoass ;) Can't wait to try my new equipment: Hugo SAL + Vega X (BH) + Rakza Z (FH)

Hi yogi_bear, how is the speed of Rakza Z compared to Vega X and does the hardness feels somewhat same ? (or does one feel softer vs the other?) Thanks!
