Help me to choose new dhs blade

[yossi]

Hi,
I want to try a new blade from DHS, this will be my first time with their blade.
I am wondering which blade to buy, long 5, long 5x, hurricane wang chuqin.
Or another blade that you recommend.
Currently playing with Alexis Lebrub Kyoto.
Thank you very much

Try dhs w968

Try dhs w968

The wood is expensive to me, it cost 600$ at tt11
I was thinking about a long 5/x but I was thinking maybe a newer wood or something better
Maybe Hurricane wang chuqin, but I didn't see any review about it

I would recommend the DHS Hurricane King ACB. We are several on the forum who likes it. I bought mine from Global Sports Store @ Aliexpress. Their big spring sale starts next monday and the ACB is down to 103 euros (for me that is, since prices seem to vary depending on where the customer lives). Anyway, higly recommended!

Also, remember Aliexpresses coupons that will give you even more savings!

Edit: and personally, I also have the cheaper DHS 301Z and like it even more! Great price on that one too, starting from monday.

Thanks a lot for the response.
I'll buy it today, sounds great and reviews are great.
Do you have any recommendations for rubber for this blade?

But don't buy it today! As I said, wait until monday and it will be at least 20 euros cheaper.

For rubbers, maybe Loki Telson 100, Yasaka Bolo Dragon or Loki Arthur China on forehand. The Loki Telson 100 is the one most similar to euro-tensor rubbers, if that's what you are used to.

And BH rubbers, maybe Yinhe Moon 12 Blue mid hard, Reactor Ckylin Pro or KOKUTAKU BLutenkirsche 868. Global Sports Store has them all. I use Yinhe Moon 12 Blue mid hard on the ACB blade and I'm very happy with it.

Do you really want to switch from an outer carbon blade like the Alexis Krypto Carbon to an inner carbon blade?
DHS has TG506X, TG506A (different fiber) and HL5A. Regarding top ply quality 729 or Loki are usually better than DHS.

Rubbers: If you just want to try a different blade than keep the rubbers you're used to. Otherwise: Chinese blade, Chinese rubbers...

I was thinking about a long 5/x but I was thinking maybe a newer wood or something better

Why do you think the HL5X is not good enough?

 

[job59]

I'm a bit confused with the data I read on TTGearLab. There, the HL5X is really different to the 301X, I returned to since some weeks. Clearly slower. Is this what people here say too?
Another question for me is the difference between the basic HL5X and the W968 provincial. Is it worth the double price? As I'm using the H3 provincial, I know there it is a huge difference.
