I play FZD ALC with boosted H3N 39 commercial on FH and Tenergy19 on BH. I played with unboosted H3N before and could not play well enough. Finally decided I’m already so invested in the Chinese stroke so why not. And all my life I had been running away from Butterfly blades because of the high...

You’re on the wrong thread 🤪 I am planning to change my bh rubber to D05.

I haven’t played with C1, but I have wth G1 and S1. I would say those have a medium high to high throw angle. The Yinhe Moon 12 Blue medium hard has a medium throw angle. I actually did not think the sponge felt too hard. The topsheet has some softness that I think compliments with the medium...

Yep, that’s the one.

boretennis shared the correct link. Seller is Too Fun Store.

Alright, so what’s the view on replica blades? As an equipment junkie, I’ve purchased a few replica blades namely: TB ALC, Viscaria, and W968. The TB ALC replica was actually called Timo Boer 😂. This one had wide wings. I assembled it with Palio AK47 Red and Blue. It had insane speed and...

I just glued a Yinhe Moon 12 Blue medium hard on a replica W968 and wow it is amazing. This might be the best budget backhand I’ve ever played with. I will update once I get more time with it. It has some catapult effect that feels controlled. I don’t feel like it lacks any speed or spin.

I’ve looked online for commercial H3N 37 degrees but cannot find them available in red rubber, only black. Does it actually come in red? I’m only looking for commercial as I want to keep it cheap. I plan to boost it and use for backhand on a Loki Kirin K3 blade. Or is there an alternative that...

My FZD ALC is my first Butterfly blade. I’ve tried Tenergy on many other brands, but I feel that Butterfly rubbers play the best on Butterfly blades. I said that I don’t like Tenergy05, but I recently played with my friend’s Outerforce ZLC with T05 and wow I actually enjoy hitting with it. Nice...

I'm also a believer in Tenergy19. Never liked the play with Tenergy05. T19 allows the ball to sink into the rubber/sponge and increase dwell time. Couple years ago, I had T19 on BH for my Xiom Ice Cream AZXi for some time and enjoyed it. Changed the T05H on FH to T19 and it was way better for my...

I bought a b2 nbs for my fzd alc, but I've been busy. I will assemble it soon and see how it is.

I went with Battle 2 Provincial Blue Sponge 38. So far I'm impressed with my forehand loops and drives. When hitting consistent, the people that I usually play with have not been able to return my forehand loop kills. The only thing that I have an issue with is that the topsheet is not as tacky...

Actually I plan to ask him next time to let me try it!

It's hard to say what my USATT rating is. I don't live in an area that has a league and the one TT Facility I had planned to enter tournaments removed TT. If I had to give myself a rough guess I would be anywhere between 1200-1500 but if I'm very consistent I can see it being up to 1600. I'm...

Alright, so I need to know what I'm doing wrong! A friend I play with uses a premade Timo Boll with Dignics05 FH and Pan Asia BH. I have no difficulty winning unless I'm just really off that day. However, he recently switched back to his older premade paddle, which I believe is the Butterly...
