Hi,

Over here in the good ol' U. S. of A., our go-to Butterfly source is Butterflyonline.  Since at least March 10th, this blade's status on the website has been "Coming soon."

A little birdie just told me the next date for the blade's availability is end of April.  The end of April is "soon."

Thanks.
Tenergy: Two weeks of heaven, followed by three months of excellence, then, a nice rubber.

But only with V-series, because it’s the first and most superst alc blade in the world :D

Exactly. Thumbs Up

Butterfly simply started to produce this blade at the end of 2021. So the first produced blades got the V (=2021) and when 2022 started, they used the W as first letter of the serial.

This has absolutely nothing to do with a quality difference.

V serials salc is far more expensive than the w in the China aftermarket. I think it’s just more rare other than netter quality. They belong to the same first batch.

The one with the 'V' is made for North America.  On the box, it should also has 'MK' near the serial number.

received my SALC of 92 gram, very similar to my custom made Vis. Seems to have more carbon in the synthetic layer. Ball bounces and sounds the same

To me they both feel softer and a little less stiff compared to a regular Viscaria. If you always wanted a Viscaria with a softer feel and a little more catapult at distance this would be a good choice. If you play close to the table,prefer  a lower throw angle  and like a crisper feel stick with the standard Viscaria .

Thanks!...........Good information.

They spent 10 years to mess up with the original Viscaria by using thinner fiber layer  and finaly they can name the  one with thick fiber layer Super ALC.

For Me super viscaria is made for pro players WHO use hard rubbers that s why IT will be Play like koto Kevlar blade like drinkhall powerspin but with  better japanese quality 
I saw a lot of players on good level and I think about first Polish division and they change his viscarias, to cca unlimited because it is a lot softer and faster so they can choose hard rubbers like r53/mxp50/05hard/dignics/k3/triple double extra/rhyzen without any problems, soft blades give them more rubber flexibility.

New Super Viscaria will be small stock because hype is high, so IT is normal part of business. 
Everybody knows that first stock of butterfly new blades  are very good. 
They sell 10k blades for 200 euro and IT is 2millions and normal viscaria dissapear because WHO wants sell outdated product for 50% of new product?
You will feel the Vibe when  they make Super Maze Alc with Denmark flag ( Freitas didnt deserve his own blade) or Super Timo Boll ALC, 
No one will want to buy Revoldia,. 
Super Apolonia alc with green and cherry handle, I want that 
No one will want to buy Layer Alc. 
Thats how they handle the buzz


zhang jike blue dragon super alc could be the greatest blade ever made.

if I will be honest, it can be very good, the idea of Super ALC is the same as they did with Zhang Jike - very soft, super sonic fast but I don't care haha
I will buy just to have because I love black handle from Super Viscaria
If you wanna be so  funny... I  change top ply from W968 National that cost 1k$ who the fook is (you) "that guy" ????
I saw hype in Poland from 1st league to 4th league, everybody wants new Viscaria.


So Butterfly said they spent 10 years designing this blade? In 2012 there was another ball so they designed a blade based on old 40mm  ball ? How come you design a blade to be used with  ball that nobody uses early in 2012? Plastic  ball was used in 2015

I received 3 a few days ago; 89,90,91.  I put 09c both sides on the 89g. I find it has better feel than alc, more predictable than zlc and not quite as stiff/fast as szlc. I’d say it’s a winner but I need way more time with it to make a final judgement.

It's that Timo Boll/European thing with the ST handles.  Some of these manufacturers think this theme is followed more but it is not; the Chinese flared handle is.
