Do you think that Ma Long changed to different socks after introduction of the new plastic ball to compensate for the reduced speed and spin?

AIM:
The primary objective of this study was to test the aerodynamic properties of a selection of running and general sports socks.
METHODS AND PROCEDURES:
Eleven pairs of socks were tested in a specially constructed rig which was inserted into a fully calibrated wind tunnel. Wind test speeds included 3, 4, 5, 6, 12 and 45m/s.
RESULTS:
There was no significant difference between any of the socks tested for their aerodynamic properties. The drag coefficients calculated for each sock varied proportionally with the Reynolds number. No particular sock was more aerodynamic than any of the socks tested.
CONCLUSION:
There is no evidence that a sock that is "aerodynamically designed" will help an athlete go faster. This may be more product rhetoric than reality, and further work is justified if such claims are being made.
However, the socks for the new Poly ball help you grab the ball better and get more spin!
But only if you boost them.
ALSO ITS LABEL LEFT AND RIGHT LETTER ON THE SOCKS TOO . THIS IS WHAT I USED FOR HARD DAY OF TRAINING . IF U DONT BELIEVE ME TRY IT AND U WILL SEE THE RESULT
