Butterfly is not lying. ZJK is indeed spot using T80 in Rio 2016. See the round corner rectangle and the number 8 (roughly) at the end of the serial 14-018.

Do you think the difference from a commercial version and the ones he uses are extreme? Or do you think it's just a little more durable?

?ts definitely extreme. I dont know about durability after all pros dont use their rubbers more than month, some even change them after 1 week, but kreanga's rubbers for example were floating over a gel which was something like factory boosting

on the other hand, Ma long is not using tenergy at all against mizutani, I guess he's favoring control/spin over speed

I'll try to catch a screenshot of ZJK vs samsonov

Ma Long has been using a Red H3 with a special softer sponge on BH since before the 2015 WTTC.

And also, based on ZJK's playing style and arc, it is T64, not T80
So I am not convinced there is T80 unless we have more solid proof
After seeing a recent interview with ZJK I think it could be true he switched to T80.


in the intro you can clearly see the ITTF ID-no. Which is 14-018 and not 14-003 T64.

Here is a snapshot.

I hope DHS will release a market version of H3-60 similar to what ML and XX is using. Should be the next best selling rubber for BH and a good excuse for people moving away from Tenergy.

Impossible, you still have to boost the hell out of it and not to mention DHS won't release the rubbers that the pro are using

There are many so call H3-60 National selling in taobao claiming to be ML/XX's BH rubber. As DHS is already making TG3-60 in bulk, I see no difficulty for them to put H3 top sheet on that same #60 sponge and give us H3-60. That name alone is gurantee to sell like hot cake. DHS should not miss this opportunity after ML won OG with it and just let taobao seller make a big profit.

Perhaps the CNT have a special contract with DHS to stop them selling their rubbers commercially...

Competitive advantage and all that...
