Hello,

I am thinking of getting one of the blades ^
Can someone please compare those blades and tell me which one is the best to go for.

Currently using the Viscaria with Acuda S1 and found it too be too low-throw and no spin only speed.
My style is close-medium range looper and close to table blocker.

Thanks

Jack

I've tested two light Latikas (not Latika Light). They both were head heavier, less vibrating, and faster than the Virtuosos I've played with. Latika has a slightly oversized head. Liked the ST handle of Latika more than STSQ of Virtuoso.
But eventually I kept the Virtuoso and sold the Latikas.

I have the three of them and I like Latika best.
Speed : Latika > Korbel > Virtuoso
Control is similar and feel is great for all of them.

Quality of Latika is very high and the sweet spot is above average. My only concern with Nittaku blades is the handles are to small. Korbel feels like a slightly faster Primorac. Virtuoso or is on my wish list.

If i won't find a blade that is better than the viscaria, then what rubber should i replace on my forehand? I found the acuda s1 to be too low throw and power only not much spin.

So what do you recommend me getting out of those.

I also be interested on the Acoustic too.

thanks
