    Posted: 03/06/2017 at 9:28am
Hi, for you Infinity VPS V owners out there, I am curious on what the weight of your blade is.  I just received a mint condition Infinity VPS V blade with anatomic handle from another member on here, and noticed that it weighed 96grams on my scale! I read online that the Infinity VPSV was supposed to be a fairly light blade around 82-83g, and was wondering if the extra weight on mine is due tot he handle shape (maybe Flared and ST handles are supposedly lighter?).  Just curious on if the weight on mine is fairly typical or an anomaly.

96g is definitely a heavy weight for VPS. I have several VPS blade around 88-89g.

I have an 84g anatomic. It definitely does feel lighter than that cuz of the balance.

I just sampled four Infinity VPS:

1.  Master (FL) --> 92 grams
2.  Master (FL) --> 95 grams
3.  Classic (ST) --> 93 grams
4.  Old stock in Champ (Conic) --> 79 grams !!!

I think the new batch employs more dense wood, thus higher in weight

It is a good blade though (I chose the FL Master 92 grams).  It is fast.  I guess if you own 80 grams Infinity, it will be slower.
Blade : Just wood
FH : black rubber
BH : red rubber

I don't know if AN has good balance.   With the slim Master FL, it is head heavy.   Even my friend who is accustomed to his Korbel (head heavy as well) think that my Infinity is too head heavy.  His Korbel is considered "balanced" compared to my Infinity.

I have a 90 gram legend and a 92 gram JTTAA master FL - I prefer the feel of the JTTAA on bouncing, but can only use legend.  Both feel great!

My infinity AN does feel Atleast as balanced as a xiom vega pro, and a new viscaria, the old tbs and old viscaria does feel a lot more head heavy. FYI, iv tried quite a few of the old gen visc and Tbs while only one new visc.

How would you guys (with heavier Infinitys) describe the blade speed compared to 7-plys or carbon blades?  I have mostly 5-ply allwoods and my 96g Infinity is by far my fastest blade (almost too much for me to control).

I have a 90g China market version which feeds and play better than the European version. Also IMO the quality is better.

For who doesn't want heavy blades, sell them to me!
There is no real "pro", "prov" or "NT" H3 in the market.

This is my first post here. My name is Luigi and I'm from Italy.
I have just bought an Infinity VPS, FL master, from a European seller.
Weight 93 gr.
I'm worried by the weight because i have think to buy a light weight blade!
But now read from you that I'm not the only one, I'm more relax and not convinced that I have a fake or faulty Infinity blade. Not yet tried playing.
Hi and thank's to all.
