The setup

He is a left-handed shakehand attacker, and the blade under it is Butterfly's Viscaria Super ALC — the Viscaria name on a firmer Super ALC layer, with "SUPER ALC" on the handle badge. Our own Viscaria page covers the standard blade and the outer-fibre feel that made it the board most players picture when they picture a modern shakehand racket. Before the Super ALC he played a Butterfly custom arylate-carbon, so the move was within the same family.

On the forehand he plays ZYRE-03, the clean Ricosheet topsheet over an extra-thick Spring Sponge X; before it, Tenergy 05 Hard. On the backhand he plays Dignics 05, the non-tacky high-tension sheet of the Dignics line — and ZYRE-03 is what he had there before this, so the two sheets swapped sides rather than one simply replacing the other. The short version of that move: the newest, firmest sheet on the forehand, and the long-standing Dignics 05 back on the wing where he blocks and counters off the bounce.

Both rubbers are on the Rubbers price table. The blades table lists a Viscaria and the Fan Zhendong ALC, but not the Super ALC, so name it in the quote request.
