Perfect 10/10 easy to make slow spinny shots. A lot of feeling, for example a lot more than fzd super alc which is another example when someone wants to rob your money and make another substitution. Say no to your wallet. One good blade is worth a lot more money than you paid, because you can buy more, test and not be well trained and play with less consistency. Every handle change your vibes but for me FZD super alc quality is very bad. Don’t recommend it.

The blade is well-balanced and has a great feel in the hand. The handle is comfortable to grip, and the blade is not too heavy or too light. The blade is also very durable and has not shown any signs of wear or tear after several months of use.

Overall, I am very impressed with this blade. It is a great choice for players of all levels, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a new blade.

Here are some of the pros and cons of this blade:

Pros:

* Well-balanced * Comfortable to grip * Durable * Great feel in the hand

Cons:

* None that I can think of

Updated Viscaria Super ALC. Everyone wants to know if it’s better than the normal Viscaria. It’s not as fast, but it’s really flexible, so a lot of spin can be generated. Blocks come easily with such flexibility.

For fast spin drives, you must have physical power and hit hard. (I’m in love with this blade.)

Paired with Tenergy 05FX 2.1 forehand and 64FX 2.1 backhand.

I find this blade softer and faster than the Viscaria. Like the Viscaria, it pairs well with any mid-hard rubber on the backhand, but it is very picky with forehand rubber. The Donic Barracuda is acceptable but slightly soft. The Dawei Yinhe D80 is too reactive on defense but great for attacking. The Tibhar Evolution MX-P is difficult to control, has too little dwell time, and requires systematic training. The Tibhar Evolution MX-S in 1.9mm surprised me by being better, while the 2.1mm version was not as good.

The Vega Pro, Nexy Etika 51, and Galaxy Yinhe 850 were not quite up to par, lacking something. The Friendship Butterfly MX-D was good for the first week or so before the factory boosting wore off. After countless months of constant changing, the Rakza Z Extra Hard turned out to be my number one forehand rubber, followed by the Butterfly Tenergy 64 (40-degree version) and the Tibhar Evolution MX-S 1.9mm. I would expect the Donic Barracuda 09c or a boosted Yasaka National H3 Blue Sponge to be great, but since the Rakza Z Extra Hard is less than half the price of these, I don’t see the need to spend more to find out. Any of the forehand rubbers mentioned above would be fine on the backhand, but the Butterfly Tenergy 64/Yasaka National H3 might be too slow on this wing.

This blade has less of the springiness found in the slower Viscaria (perhaps due to the higher density weave of the SALC?), so attacking feels more stable, especially when the score gets tight.

Table Tennis Blade Review

If you don’t want to waste your money, don’t buy from tabletennis11. The blade I received was warped and the handle was loose. The customer service was terrible and they refused to give me a refund. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

Blade Quality

The blade was made of cheap wood and the craftsmanship was poor. The blade was warped and the handle was loose. The blade also had a lot of splinters and the edges were not smooth.

Customer Service

The customer service was terrible. I contacted them about the blade and they refused to give me a refund. They said that the blade was not defective and that I was trying to scam them. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

Overall

I would not recommend tabletennis11 to anyone. The blade I received was warped and the handle was loose. The customer service was terrible and they refused to give me a refund.

This is a blade made for advanced players, so do not buy it if you are new to this game.

I suggest you combine this blade with medium hard rubbers, such as T19, R45.

Slower than Viscaria normal version with low power, it can generate more spin compared to normal power.

Compared to normal Viscaria, you can clearly feel the blade is flexible when you hit with medium or big power, especially on forehand.

The feel of backhand is similar to Viscaria, which is excellent.

A very nice blade. I use inverted (have tried Dignics 05, Xiom Omega V Asia, MXP 50) on one side and long pips on the other.

I did not like the original Viscaria because I feel it’s slow, and I’ve hit with the Viscaria Golden, which I feel is fast but not spinny enough (or my technique isn’t good enough - and way too expensive for the way it plays).

I like the JZK SZLC (used for 4 years- a little too fast/hard) and LYJ SZLC (used this last 12 months or so).

The Viscaria SALC feels perfect in the middle between the LYJ SZLC and Viscaria. It has spin as well as speed, and I feel I can drive shots with good variation selectively with good control.

Chopping is better with the LYJ SZLC (keeps the ball really flat), but long pips play is better with the Viscaria SALC (I think mainly because the throw is higher, so the ball is more disruptive).

Blocks and chop blocks are also quite good against drives from US 2000-2300 level players. I just ordered a second one as backup.

Harga mahal, rasa sama seperti Viscaria biasa. Malah lebih enak Yinhe ALC. Buat orang yang banyak gaya dan duit saja ini mah. Hihihi…

Updated: Super alc has more dwell time and spin than the original Viscaria. Put DHS Hurricane provincial blue sponge for FH and Tenergy 05 for BH, and you will be unstoppable on all your strokes. So controllable but powerful!!!

#10 — Long Time Ago...

Viscaria Super ALC offers increased dwell time and control compared to the original Viscaria. I have paired it with Hurricane 3 National Blue Sponge on the forehand side, resulting in an exceptional combination. The blade provides a pronounced bounce, which is particularly advantageous for sticky rubbers. On the backhand side, I use Gold Arc 8 — 47.5 degrees, which delivers exceptional power. This blade has been meticulously designed for topspin attacks. Its quality is commendable, and the handle ensures great comfort during play. I highly recommend this blade to all players.

#11 — Long Time Ago...

87g- Paired with K3 max on both sides. Very stable, fast enough for sharp attacks, excellent control in blocks and counter spins. Good touch for receiving serves and to impact good under spin on serves and pushes. Good for closed to the table games, and up to 2m away from the table. To me, it is a very well balanced piece of equipment, it can do anything, including sharp smashes. It is less fast than normal Viscaria, but you get more stability in shots. This means the Super ALC blade is harder, and might make you more confident in match games, because the ball is landing more securely on the table. I played D09C and D05 or T05 on Viscaria, it is a good combination too, very fast, and sometimes a bit too fast in match games. I should have transferred D09C and D05 on Super ALC, but I tried D05 and D64 as A. Diaz setup, and D64 2.1 was too fast to reproduce the super active blocks of Adriana… but K3 max was just perfect! And D05 is really fast on Super ALC. So K3 is slower, and paired better for my game. Hope it helps a little. It is a good blade, slower and harder than Viscaria, but super stable. It takes time to appreciate this blade.

#12 — Long Time Ago...

This blade is incredible, surpassing even the Viscaria in terms of performance. If you find yourself lacking strength, this blade is an absolute must-buy. Some minor adjustments to the phrasing may be necessary.
