Do you know who carries the Lion Claw?

Seems I'm wrong - I swore I saw it the other day.

Tested out the 755 vs the DG 2 yesterday. Definite differences in strength and weaknesses. The DG 2 is slower and less sensitive to spin. Easier to control. But, the 755 also had good control. A little faster, definitely more grip. But with the grip it felt like it was a little easier to attack under spin due to the grip of the 755. The thing I liked about the 755 as compared to a pip with even more grip is, even though there was grip, it was more controllable than those other pips. So maybe it's the right combination of grip and control for me. I played a 2000 level player yesterday, one match with each, and he felt the 755 were tougher to play against. I'm going to keep testing the two of them in the short term. Going to practice more today, probably with the 755, and figure out which one I want to try in the next tournament I'm playing in, this coming Saturday.

I've fished out my lion claw. Will photograph it for you and put it on my backup bat and maybe have a light knock at social Tt on Tuesday. Taking things easy owing to injury, so some light EJ-ing in a social context could be fun.

He used to use Lion Claw but had changed to Spinlord Stachelfeur last time I saw him at the tt centre

Cool, thanks for the pics! I had another good session with the 755 today. I'm thinking I may go with that at the upcoming tournament on Saturday and see how it goes.

The Lion Claw has certainly aroused my curiosity as they appear to be smooth tipped which I prefer. It's slow speed will be a bonus as I prefer slow LPs too. Thanks LC for posting photos

Checked Lion Claw at Custom Table Tennis and it looks promising but very surprised to note international postage to the rest of the world (outside Europe) quoted on website is more than the cost of the item.
