If it's close to Petr Korbel it's good then. I don't like the big head size and slim ST handle of PK, feels head heavy. I already ordered Virtuoso FL handle, it looks big and comfortable Yes sealing a thin coat is necessary if anyone want to use waterbase glue. But Violin doesn't need sealing at all, no problem. Virtuoso seems to made for Glue ban, suitable for Tenergy, let's see if it's really a good combo. |

What is the best rubber match so far for Virtuoso? What D is your BW2? I ordered a Virtuoso and a custom made 7-ply flexible Off blade. Will report back when they arrive in resp. 1 and 6 weeks. Communication so far is good. The only question not answered was the type of veneers they are going to use for my custom made blade. But probably this is classified information... BTW, anybody tell us something about sn491 - composition, feel, speed and control. Thank you |

You asked about the lamina, not the veneers :) that was answered... Your custommade racket will have koto outer ply. The others are really not for public ;) |

Hi all, we recenty noticed that some of our testrackets have been traded. We are glad to achieve that because it seems we stepped to that level. Besides that it is very good since testers provide that opportunity for other and we can have more and more feedback.
Please consider that we have never sold testrackets with the old OSP logo. In sum testrackets differ in the logo only.

It was quite a surprise to receive this blade in the mail few weeks ago. OldStiga Standard Palatinus 5 ply All Wood Anatomic (Ulf “Tickan” Carlsson style) handle Blade weighs 86.5g.
The Anatomic handle is as good as Stiga Clipper’s and some of my Butterfly’s, I like it as much as my Photino’s, SC’s which are thick, “meaty” and I always use these two as my Benchmark, but not the KLPSP’ & TBS’s as these two are just too thin for my liking. The “prints” on the OSP Virtuoso handle seemed to be smudged while the “maker” was printing on it, it therefore doesn’t look as good as the “Golden” color of the later batch. Again, if I paid HUGE bucks for it, I would’ve returned it for an exchange, yet this one was just 1 out of PLLSystem’s 1st initial batch and it’s for me to test play, it doesn’t matter as most of the Stigas I came across over the years looked more awful than this. Rubbers Info.: Overall weight of this Combo: 173.5g
Nice cracking, crispy sound yet not as loud or pronounced as my other/last/previous blades, i.e. Old SC, 91g Acoustic, TBS, KLHSp or even my favorite Photino yet louder than another of my all time favorites, Tibhar H-3-9. It feels less stiff than all the above-mentioned, but I felt that it has quite a sweet spot compared to the others but not as nice/large as H-3-9. It has the typical woody sound but with an added sweeter kind of tone unlike that of Acoustic or other pure 5 ply (Pkorbel) which I’ve tried and still own. The control is, well, just fabulous and I thought I could just go on & on and that it’s THE blade that makes me NOT thinking about…..”wooooo…I’m playing with THE blade of ALL blades and I’ve got to be careful and not hit the table by accident”. It’s just a confidence-inducing blade as far as I’m concerned. Really really put a smile on my face every time I hit or blocked.
It was a breeze both FH and BH, whether active or passive but not as “instantaneous” as more expensive or famous blades like SC, Photino, TBS or even KLHSp. In a way, it reminds me of my last but seasoned 91g Acoustic with some glued DHS rubbers, not as fast as those greatest but faster than Pkorbel, AR Stellan Bengsston, AR Evolution, it felt better than YEO as good as my friend’s WCS Senso V1 w/Tibhar Nimbus Medium on BH yet slightly more confident both FH & BH almost right on par with H-3-9 with IQ 35d 2.0mm. Would I spend huge amount of money to acquire this? Yes, but I’d have to unload some of my gems for just this or IT. Would my EJ Quest/days be over for good? Very likely YES, as I don’t see anything interesting out there for that equal amount of $$$$$. Would I pass this Virtuoso on to others to have a crack at it? I don’t think so.. Would I return this Virtuoso to Laszlo, PLLSystem upon his request? Nah…Fat Chance. I’m gonna keep it for the NEXT 25 years at least. There's no way I'm gonna sell or trade this away.... All in all, IMHO, this is just a gem and to be honest, I’ve not touched other blades for 3 solid weeks…that’s really quite unusual for an EJ or now past EJ like me. I might have said things/BS repeatedly in my so-called “Review”, If I did, please forgive OR just ignore me as English is my 3rd language. I might come back to this thread to fix my mistakes tho’ in due course/next or future re-visits. Edited by tiehwen - 06/28/2010 at 8:58pm |

Hy everyone made a test for ultimate as well
OSP Ultimate I got the Offensive 7ply
wood from the new OSP (oldtiga by palatinus) blades Size: 158x150 ,91 gr, Forehand: Tenergy 05 2,1 (oil tuned ) Backhand: Roundell 2.1 (rather shabby) First of all i want to describe the main
elements, after a summary and impressions on a match. Chop: Chopping is punctual even with the tuned
tenergy. If i wanted to make heavy chops i had to make
faster strokes with my wrist, beacause it feels
sometimes more bouncy then expected. But after some mistake i could gave
very hard spins. Counter: Counter is not a difficult element and can be
expected for a blade not to take more mistakes. With this ultimate the tenergy feels harder
but even more punctual then i thought, the combo feels little hitter setup, but
still good. You don’ have to be hard this works form itself. Drop,Blocking: Shorter dropps are
not so easy with this but this not designsed for passive game its sure. But blocking a
little bit away about If i push it little
like close to table counterspin but just wrist stroke it was’nt gave back. My partner said : „You
could do that ? Nice” Nor am I thouhgt that it is so easy to make
harder blocks like Maze sometimes Topspin against chopped ball: Beacuse of lower arc
you must pull the arm little bit more vertically but not too uncomfortable way. It gave a lot of
spin with lower arc and slower speed but the ball is going fater down after touching
the table. It was more
unpleasent than i thought. I have to say this is nor my strenght Topspin against block,topspin against topspin: Dinamyc topspins is a
modern hitter loop and feels like your still using fresh glued sriver fx :) I could make very
fast topspins to end of the table…with high amount of spin. Hard and spinny bachand
topspins could be carried out with little wrist moves. I could make backhand
shots as well if wanted. Serve,Receive I could make serves with lot of spins but
chopped serves wasn’t so easy, instead i gave empty serves and after i could
finish te ponits with this weaponJ Receiving is easy if your good with topspins and
flicks short dropps is a little bit hard for me but I am using ow the slower
brother ,Virtouso. Summary: However i lost the
match int he finel set, but my partner said : „you were more agressive, i was surprised „ I used to lost
against him becasue he is playing 4 class higher tournament but I am satisfied
with the two set won and what he said. This is still a
looper blade but stiffer so maybe well suit for modern topspin game. Some forum writers
compared it with clipper. I can say it is better than clipper in all aspects.Not
comperable First of all it has
feeling!!Good feedback in your palm, Much more spin and so punctual. Higher arc, and not
a linearblade…so if you want to be softer,so you can! But if you are harder
this a fast killer weapon. If you are looking
for well balanced offensive blade with superb control this is what You want I am sure you will
stop EJ’ ing ;) |

I think you'll really like the sn486. I've been playing with mine for a couple a weeks and I won't be changing anytime soon. I plan on getting a backup for this one! I haven't tried the new OSP blades yet but they look to be of similar quality. Edited by robjkc - 06/29/2010 at 6:17pm |

No. OSP blades are individually developed. Custommade rackets are made for exact orders of certain customers

Mine was "crafted" as per my "specs.", not much, may be to some, to begin with. I had my so so average, well...good in some ways, a PKorbel plus my old Stiga @ the background (in my head), as template but I wanted more, i.e. more comfy handle, a bit more Oooomph, more power, more feedback/control and that unique classic allwood no fancy no wuahahahaha look. And to me, PLLSystem (or this Virtuoso) delivers and even MORE. There're actually some "extras" thrown into it as well, but I can't put words to it. How about this....A blade that makes me forget about the rest which I've thinking about acquiring prior to this ONE? A blade that makes me feel like holding it or just wanna look at it eventho' I'm not playing it? A blade that makes me say "That's it!" ? Or a blade that pauses/makes me stop my spending spree $$$$$?

I received my Virtuoso FL today. (thx Palatinus)
I looks and feels high quality. I glued my regular rubbers on (Baracuda + Hexer PS). Didn't play with it but it feels like a bit more powerful version of my Stiga Allround Stellan Bengtsson. Same clear, stiffish and softish feel with the power from the core. Something like a better quality, much better feel and a bit more powerful Korbel. I do highly recommend anyone considering to buy one while the shipping is probably still free (for the first 100 blades). You can be sure you'll appreciate owning a handmade blade like this. Details will follow after some playing.

1,5 wings looper LOL. I loop less on my BH since it's weaker. What blade do you use? Probably it's a custom made of yours, righT?

I'll be curious to hear how Baracuda and Hexer Powersponge works on the Virtuoso. tiehwen The Virtuoso is a blade that allows you to concentrate on playing your game, rather than drawing attention to itself. It's versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of rubbers and playing styles. |

Very much for a startup business. You have to change the CMS for a more stable one, like Joomla, WP, or Drupal. |

OFF Yeah... Let me explain.. (any suggestion welcome)
I use e107 because its flexibility. And we also have the databases that is not compatible to others.. But the main problem is not in the e107. It is a simple query from bots but in huge amount (ddos) to slow the server that can be made for every CMS. The main problem it that when the querys are coming my hosting iWeb kindly suspend my account. (Not filtering the bots, not foltering the IP-s etc.. just cut the server down with all my contents). I bought unlimited domain hosting package with unlimited bandwith. In my oppinion all who has website(s) working on the website be popular. What if my website is so popular that I will have dozens of visitors? The also cut down the server? I really cannot understand... I have left iWeb for hosting24.com I hope it will be solved soon..ON Well, thanks for your patience..We are back

I played with Virtuoso (with Baracuda and Hexer PS) today. Was a happy evening session. Everything was as expected or better. It's a very good blade indeed. Thx once more Palatinus. I'll order another one shortly.

if EVER I want to have a spare (hopefully unlikely), I'd go for a slightly tiny wee bit heavier, like 90g, ST handled one just for comparison sake.
Virtuoso, IMHO, is not just any or another allwood blade. It's THE blade.

I think your current website design is hurting business:
For example the tabs above the OSP site: http://ospblades.com/portfolio.html http://ospblades.com/social.html http://ospblades.com/contact.html yield the following error Not FoundThe requested URL /portfolio.html was not found on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. Also, if I might suggest listing the price for the virtuoso and ultimate in a more upfront manner to avoid confusion as well. |
