if you are replying to my post # 39 I know it is difficult to read.
When I wrote the post I made it in 3 sections with big spaces between them but this website squeeeezed it all together in to one lump.

I just posted the url of the ALC Huieson because I liked the look of it.

The 2 Huieson I bought because i wanted the handles were just the 5 ply "el-cheapo" blades. BUT they are well made blades and with
some Hurricane 3 glued on just for a laugh they played well. Just another proof that one does not have to spend mega $$$$$$ to get a decent blade.

Yeah yeah .. I agree .. V14, to me seemed a notch or 2 faster than and even bouncier than Viscaria/TBALC .. Infact, I found it comparatively harder to control too.. V14 may be similar in composition to Viscaria/TBALC, but the feel and play is not the same..

Well its thicker than TB ALC, so its a little faster and a little stiffer. But I prefer it to Butterfly, because I like the extra little speed.

The other 3 CCs belong to my wife and kids and all wear Sanwei T88 Ultra Spin rubbers. My V14 Pro has Mercury 2, so that's what I put on my CC to compare the two blades. That way I wouldn't be comparing apples to oranges since the only difference would be the blades themselves.
The CCs do play better wearing the T88 Ultra Spin rubbers, IMO, and all play very similarly to one another.
