Victas ZX-Gear Fiber

I only played with this blade once, so I might update my review later. I used Victas VJ 07 Regular on the forehand side and Giant Dragon Dragon's Talon (long pips) on the backhand. Surprisingly, this blade seemed to be one of the best I've used with long pips. On the forehand side, however, I felt I lost a bit of control compared to using the same rubber on custom-made 5-ply and 3-ply wood blades by Mr. Levi. I disagree with reviewers who said the blade feels like all wood. It has the extra rigidity typical of carbon blades, though it's not as pronounced as in other composite blades. Overall, this is a very good blade, finished to a high standard.
