You want Butterfly to sign Liam again? OK...well he actually was a Butterfly sponsored player for some years before switching to Victas... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGTzmJRRG30" rel="nofollow - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGTzmJRRG30 During his time with Butterfly, Liam used the Korbel, the Viscaria and then the Mizutani ZLC. Apparently he was not high-profile enough (for Butterfly) to get his own signature blade, you know apart from this dumb pre-made blade they released years ago https://www.sportsdirect.com/butterfly-liam-pitchford-table-tennis-bat-777018" rel="nofollow - https://www.sportsdirect.com/butterfly-liam-pitchford-table-tennis-bat-777018

| I’m calling it. Eventually, Liam will part ways with Victas and somebody will put his discontinued Victas blade for sale advertising it as “autographed by Liam Pitchford”. |

I love Anatomic handles and wonder why more players don't use them. They are very comfortable handles. ------------- Joola Zhou Qihao 90 blade Joola Dynaryz Inferno max - BH Nittaku Moristo SP 2.0 - FH |

IMHO, the Anatomic handles of my Donic Waldner OFF 40, Dr Neubauer Hercules & ZJK SZLC are just so nice & comfortable.... ------------- http://mytabletennis.net/Forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17089" rel="nofollow - I love & am inspired by Malala Yousufzai's "True & Tough" LIFE STORY |

Because ML/TB/FZD/XX/HT/{insert favorite pro's name here} does not use AN handle and we need the exact same equipment as him so we will play just like he does. If somebody wins majors playing with AN more rec players will suddenly prefer that handle too.

I would say that AN handle is a blessing and a curse. ST is neutral FL is "kind of" neutral AN is another story. It is supposed to fit your hand like a glove. So either you have a very good AN handle (like few of Donic's blades that I own) or you have something that is very horrible to hold. Last AN blade that I own is Tibhar Drinkhall AC and it is not as nice as Samsonov Premium Contact AN (old version, orange handle). ------------- Blade : Just wood FH : black rubber BH : red rubber |

| This looks a lot like the Victas ZX-Gear Out blade. |

Date Posted: 02/10/2020 at 5:22am
It does, although interestingly Liam was initially using the ZX-Gear In blade when he first moved to Victas.

No, that's flared. Look at the next picture in the gallery.

The handle's "design" of Btfy Lin Gaoyuan is pretty nice..but I don't like the BH side w/ that tiny round "hologram"...Older version/design look better...IMHO. ------------- http://mytabletennis.net/Forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17089" rel="nofollow - I love & am inspired by Malala Yousufzai's "True & Tough" LIFE STORY |

Any review? ------------- Nittaku Acoustic Carbon FL Butterfly Dignics 05 2.1 FH Butterfly Dignics 05 2.1 BH |

Not quite the same, since the Zexion Carbon is closer to ALC than to ZLC, according to Zeio on TTD. Anyway, this ought to feel very much like the ZX-Gear Out, except a little heavier and more powerful, due to the thicker core.
