Just noticed in WTT Champions Chongching that Patrick Franziska isn't using his Signature Innerforce ZLC.
I wonder if there is a new one coming.

By the looks of it, it is Viscaria or Super ALC, interesting change.

As a fan, this is a welcome change if he gets a new ALC based Blade.

Judging by the handle, this might be the original prototype blade he got before his blade series appeared. Perhaps this one has better feel or something
Yeah maybe he just wanted a little change due to recent struggles. He didn't seem to feel uncomfortable with this blade, making me wonder if it is actually a different composition

You probably lie. I saw his matches and he used his personal blade for 2 matches...
Maybe IT is only handle ?

I think the pro's EJ a lot. More than we think. After all, they are looking for that 2% edge here and there. I don't blame them.

And if you have a losing streak and Butterfly is supplying you with unlimited blades and rubbers, why not go back to the pile and find another blade you like and see if you can turn things around.

In this generalized form I would disagree. Some might, others would rather not.

Trying something different when things go wrong is another story, but you´d have to be really disappointed with yourself, maybe on a rare occasion with a bad batch of rubbers provided to you.
