Would never have predicted how that all went down. Chaos.

Equipment comments aside, this is probably the bigger factor. It's hard for us to appreciate how Fan's change of living and training circumstances is playing into it all, or how long it will take for him to adjust. If he does at all. He's got nothing left to prove.

Are we seeing the question "is zyre a good replacement for h3?" answered in real time? Lol, just joking we already knew the answer.

My sheet of Dynamic, 2.0, black arrived today. Will be comparing to C52.5 and V>15 Sticky.

Maybe Chintec will be a return of the Rakza Z topsheet style stickiness instead of recent barely-tacky hybrids. We'll have to wait and see - can't even find it on the LARC at the moment. Interesting that they also list the Gauzy edition of the VCI - with a thinner core. Nice.

What an amazing game, captivating madness

Kiss of...life?

Interesting to see Trinity Intense and Trinity Hybrid joining Dynamic and Charged. I wonder if they are just different sponge hardness options, or if the topsheets are different as well?

Looks like stock of Trinity Charged and Dynamic is landing https://www.schoeler-micke.de/detail/index/sCategory/234/sArticle/3425

Great video, many thanks! I've got a few pistol grips, always a lot of fun. I bought one of these newer shape Sanwei ones too, but the cheapo premade one that comes with Taiji T88 on both sides. Not great rubber, but the blade is surprisingly good! It's absolutely the closest to a standard...

Ouch CXT. Happens to us all....

I remember this video, I found it really useful as well. Made me realise I had a habit of locking my arm up after the first backhand hit and then not relaxing after. Sometimes it's hard to think about the body mechanics involved, but it's all linked. Ben made some good content back in the day.

I like the number on the end of the handle as well. Wonder how many he's got in his bag....

Looks like Hugo's using his green and yellow handle in Singapore. Beyond that, who can say (apart from Matt perhaps)

I love a Hugo vs Simon match, but they're both off-camera so many times.... Simon's blade seems to have the french flag on the handle. Wonder if he has his own named blade on the way.
