  1. Zhang Jike says inner carbon blades degrade faster than outer carbon blades. Why is that?

    I think he only says that because traditionally (and especially Chinese) use Viscaria, TB ALC as outer carbon blade with koto top ply, while the inner carbon blades are traditionally limba outer plies from DHS or Innerforce ALC, ZLC etc. I realize there are koto top plied inner carbon blades but...

    DHS releasing Ma Long 5H, Ma Long blade with super ALC or whatever DHS is naming it.
  3. How to play against flat hitter?

    Recently I play against a few penhold SP hitters, some on Primprac carbon some on Viscaria, so if they hit it's fast as light. Against them I just use a lot of low underspin. They mostly hit the ball in the net or push a higher for me which then I flat hit 😏 Easiest way is to dismantle them is...
  4. Has anyone tried Hovering Dragon Dynamic Version?

    It might, because hinoki is quite soft. With viscaria type blade I felt the special medium hard version to be too hard. It felt like the topsheet doesn't have enough time to do its job. With W968 which is quite soft it is much better. So if your hinoki top is thick and soft it might be a good match.
  5. Has anyone tried Hovering Dragon Dynamic Version?

    The standard Chinese medium soft is the most bouncy, it is for sure more bouncy than the Dynamic version. But don't imagine it to be Tenergy like bouncy that you do nothing and the ball springs everywhere just because it has spin. This rubber doesn't do much if you don't put intent to it. But if...
  6. Has anyone tried Hovering Dragon Dynamic Version?

    Actually I have changed my backhand to the Dynamic version. I still don't know what the Dynamic is about this version, as for me it still feels slower and less dynamic than the standard medium soft. But it's not slow in general terms, it seems a lot faster than G-1 or at least it has a more flat...
  7. Use of signals in doubles

    You can make up your own signal system and you can confuse the opponent and their coach I they try to steal signs.
  8. Alternative Blade to Butterfly Primorac Carbon Off+

    Isn't the TSP / Victas Hino carbon pretty much a clone?
  9. Bad cheap chinese glue

    So strange, DHS no15 smells so sweet, it almost has a nice smell. The drying I can understand but the ammonia smell is weird🫠
  10. Bad cheap chinese glue

    I just keep em in room temp. Both Sueke, Suke and never had issues for months. But I don't remember issues with DHS no15 or Revo either. Only glue that dried on me was a tube of Stiga Power Attach, aka Nittaku Finezip.
  11. Switch away from Chinese FH rubber, what to choose?

    Actually I played with it on BH 2 times on w968 and it's really good but different to use to ESN or Glayzer. So I wanted to quickly compare a G-1 on the w968. G-1 is kinda crappy in comparison (G-1 unboosted). The topsheet is much softer, less grip, less spin, also much slower. What I can do...
  12. DHS W968 review

    But still my body is the only thing I have with me all the time. 😼
  13. FS DHS W968 provincial (letters)

    This should be his taobao store. The method described in that thread is ok.
  14. DHS W968 review

    I don't have a shore scale with me. Just by hand and feel. That BS softened up a lot, but not really surprising. Not the pro, just the normal K3. It's very good on it, but durability is the main issue. K3 doesn't last long. I haven't seen it on Ali. Only on Taobao and maybe prott? But I'm not...
  15. SDC Handmade Blades

    I wonder if anyone made blades with active weight shift system. For lack of my creativity I imagine someone puts a water capsule into the handle which is maybe 30% full, other 70% is air. So if you hold your racket upright the water flows to the bottom and you have a handle heavy blade, if you...
  16. DHS W968 review

    Yes, E85 indeed. The normal Chinese is D10 I think but don't quote me. Actually the normal Chinese topsheet had a smudge on it but like who cares for 80-90ish rmb. I will try the E85 blue sponge on BH side. The biggest difference between the standard medium soft and special medium hard is that...
  17. DHS fans unite!

    My expeirence if my original boost was crap I took off the H3, removed all glue and boosted directly on sponge again, granted with less booster. Then it started to work fine.
  18. Which foam sponge do you use to apply glue?

    I'm not sure how to cut it well but what I do is I use the sponge then I just cut off the bottom where the old dried glue is. So I can use a DHS or Sueke sponge like 4-5 times. Because of this I have 2-3 extra bags of sponges since the sponge outlasts the bottle of glue easily. And it's very...

    Damn that's really heavy. H3BS is supposed to be light. Mine always around 46g, it's one if it's good feature😩
