Ross made me a "Rapscallion" I named it the Nemesis series...I loved it so much, i decided to have him make me another blade with a slightly different look and feel. Here are some pictures as to how it turned out.     This blade is more similar to the Nittaku Violin. It is a tad faster and stiffer than the rapscallion, however the blade is still light. Ross was able to make the blade around 82grams for me. I have Tenergy 05fx on one side and have tried many rubbers on the other... The blade performs nicely under all circumstances. I dont know that i could say enough about the workmanship and quality of this blade. It is incredibly solid. I have about 5 high end butterfly blades including the Timo Boll ZLF and ALC. This blade competes with any of the highest end blades i have tried. I also recently purchased a Xiom Zetro Quad and find myself going back to the Ross Leidy blade time and time again. I have never felt a more comfortable handle. The gorgeous wood is just amazing to look at and more incredible to feel. Questions are welcomed.... More details to come as well. ------------- Blades: Ross Leidy (Nemesis) Ross Leidy (Canxan) Ross Leidy (Rapscallion) Infinity VPS Rubbers: Nittaku S-1 Tenergy 80FX 1.9mm |

I don't have any questions, but that is definitely (IMO) one of the more attractive blades I've seen him make to date. Congratulations! He and I have conversed a few times (and unfortunately for him, at great length) about making me a blade... but I can't quite get the blade I want at the weight I prefer. Someday... someday... Anyway, congratulations again on a beautiful blade. ------------- Neo H3 40D| Offensive S | Tenergy 80 |

Congratulations what a beauty! I love mine (Ross Leidy Ultimate P). They are almost to beautiful to play with or put rubber on. :) ------------- Wood Paddle Red side Black side. |

Very nice blade! How much does it vibrate when hitting, looping, pushing? Does it have enough power for counter-looping away from the table? Is it faster than timo boll alc? ------------- Blade: Ross Leidy Custom Fh: Rakza Z Extra Hard Bh: Tenergy 05 |
