Hi, one easy way to remove old glue from rubbers is to apply a very thin layer of booster. (just dont leave it too long). it will come off really easy.
Very interesting. I’ve just bought a Viscaria. Tried one years ago and loved it. Very pleased with mine but they are overpriced and the Kingnik version ( a very obvious copy but not claiming to be the real thing) for £24.99 is a good alternative to see if you like the Viscaria before you fork out big money on a blade you don’t like
After had donic , andro , xiom , gewo , stiga and butterfly blades and sold most of them I can say that the butterfly blades have the best balance and the best play characteristic (the made in japan ones) about quality some other blades not bad at all but all how come down to how its play that the most important. Rubbers can be ESN or butterfly but blade it’s the most important thing it’s the heart of the set up need to have good bounce
I'm playing with Viscaria and Xiom omega 7 tour on my forehand, I currently play with a MXP on my backhand and I want to try other rubber from Xiom, I play close to the table with a spiny topspin and control block. What rubber do you advise ? Thanks! Nice videos, keep on.
Have a look at the Vega series of rubbers for a good mid priced option. Vega Euro DF or Elite for control from the soft sponges. Vega Pro for a faster rubber from the harder sponge. If you have the budget for it then Jekyll & Hyde 47.5 is the best offensive Xiom rubber in our opinion in terms of controlled speed.
Both Forehand and Backhand --> Andro Rasanter Energy Cell C45 2.0 mm (Counterspin, and lots of spin) Changed from R45. I settled for this combination for the next 2 years, easily.
I’ve tried Viscaria blade and I didn’t like it at all, I was surprised that the blade is one of the best sellers !!! I think some table tennis players just fallow each other and buy the Viscaria , it was not too fast ,couldn’t generate lots of spin with it, blocking was average,throw angle was low and bad points goes on ,
@@hai6978 yes very few of them still using the blade ,I have no issues with skills , I’m playing in premier league England, that blade only works for advanced level players not below, you need to be on top world level to be able use it’s potential otherwise it would be a normal blade, in our club no one uses it apart from some intermediate level players who just buy what ever is advertised on line as the best seller
Which rubbers it had on? I have A samsonov Pro all wood and tried a Viscaria with t05 FX rubbers. I was surprise on the amount of feeling I had. It was supposed to be an advanced level racket but I played much better with it and I am a beginner. Probably T05 would be too hard though, but with t05 fx it was gorgeous!

That Kingnik Energy Carbon blade really is decent and a steal at £25
But is the product consistency good enough?

Great video - love my Xiom Strad blade 👍
Can you please do a review of the Nittaku Violin Carbon. Thank you
would you recommend it to a intermediate player? (stradivarius)
It is a fast blade but it could work for an intermediate player with slower/softer rubbers.

And yet top players still usr Viscaria and similar blades. Skill issue much?
