Watching FZD's strokes in games, I would be very surprised if he was indeed playing with a Viscaria. It seems that his blade is a lot more flexible than that.

Timo Boll changed his forehand rubber. Look at this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZcIvUeK0e4
9:13 Look everyone at his black rubber, the "butterfly" logo is new one, so he uses the new tenergy 05 hard, that's why he changed to his backhand rubber to do the smash in point 6:12

Between 1938 and 1949 Stiga was actually called Stigma. 

They started manufacturing tt-equipment 1943, so there probably are "Stigma handles" out there.  

But I don't think anyone uses a handle from the 40's on a Viscaria... Tongue

Freitas using his signature blade or is it just the handle? Quadri using his with Rhyzer 48 looks like.

Hard to say if Freitas uses his blade since the only difference is the top ply Limba is thicker on his blade than a Maze .

His old Maze would look way more worn than that though? Or he gets some from Butterfly I wonder.

I would guess a pro player can get made what ever they want from the Butterfly custom shop. Honestly the top ply looks thick to me on Freitas blade so I would bet it's actually a Freitas. When I compared my Freitas to my friends Maze the only difference was the top ply thickness. The Maze alc has a very thin top ply as were the Freitas top ply is the same as the inner ply thickness. Here is a Freitas vs Kenta ALC which is the same as Viscaria/TB ALC. Maze was suppose to be the same thickness or thinner than Viscaria

No surprise that Xu Yingbin is using a Viscaria at the WJTTC, but interesting to see that some of the CNT are actually using the Golden version instead of the regular one.

Yasaka Alnade or at least the handle because he is sponsored by Yasaka and used to play with Viscaria.

Miu Hirano switched from Clipper to Viscaria.

So when Butterfly dropped LSW, that freed up some cap space to sign Miu Hirano LOL

It seems that Mizutani is already using Butterfly Lemuria rubber.

Hard to tell, but it may be Lemuria on Red and Dignics on Black.
This was a great signature until I realised it was overrated.

Looks like Eugene is using a non-tenergy butterfly rubber on his forehand as well at the US open. What is all this new stuff??

The non-tenergy part of my comment was key. It's got like a yellow sponge or something.
