Hurricane long 5 or provincial w968 if you really want to try a different style of blade!

Is the golden viscaria still being produced? Will it get harder to source in a few years? If it’s your main blade would you recommend stocking up?

I’ve recently set up star national ma long hurricane rubbers FH and BH on no 2 player edition w968. Unless you’ve got Chinese technique with the full arm swing, the blade is exhausting and rarely did I over hit the ball. The spin/quality is the highest I’ve experienced, higher than do9c and d05...

My Bh style involves power loops using full range of motion so my racket is literally pointing at me at start of motion then releasing power. Transition between FH and BH is fine I believe that’s skill opposed to what racket you’re using. Not sure what your question is on moving to a w968 style...

For anyone who wants to read this. I currently have a viscaria (95g FH 42 ma long rubber and BH 37 provincial), golden viscaria (95g 40 provincial and 37 ma long rubber) and player edition w968 (92g 40 provincial and 37 provincial) all with similar rubbers hurricane Neo 3 FH and BH, been testing...

From what I’ve researched player versions are batch number 1-3, national are the rest. My player version w968 is batch no 2 and national w968 is no 32.

Can anyone with experience tell me the difference they found between a player edition vs national q968 or w968? Player edition is double the national cost on Prott, is it worth it?

Thanks for the responses all!

Yeah I’ve noticed this too but doesn’t the golden viscaria have a powerful forehand attack still?

Would rather keep the comparison to a version of w968

Simple question, which one do you prefer and why? Do not want to discuss other blades so please do not mention. And I understand these blades are $$$, there probably won’t be many out there owning both but appreciate all the feedback possible!

Link?

Who’s the last bit directed too? If you’re talking about the national player w968, would be happy too.

Really appreciate the knowledge and wisdom here, I’ve got Minwax poly oil warm satin on the way same as picture! I noticed there’s different types - warm gloss, warm satin or clear gloss, does this matter?

Didn’t take me long to find what wakkibatty said on using VOCs glue, seems like a knowledgeable person so I’m going to pass on that https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/which-glue-is-more-safe-for-the-wood.31396/

Hello, How do you seal your blades? If you’re saying the water based poly is ok seems you have experience. How does this Haifu glue prevent splintering on the blade? Seems a good option if it means I don’t need to seal. I can see two available on prott, whale 2 speed glue and dolphin 2 speed...

Hi Zwill, Appreciate all the info! Issue is I’m boosting every 6-8 weeks on Neo 3 rubbers. Two table tennis companies I contacted said they either use the donic (TT11) or Xiom (customTT) sealer so I don’t think there’s gonna be much difference in either one. However similar thought process I...

Yeah a lot of people recommend this, from your experience did you notice any change in playing characteristics?

Thanks all appreciate the responses

Thanks both!
