I think the Donic Zhang Jike New Era blade. Joola Trinity if it's still produced (this one is from the same factory and uses same fibre as TMXi I believe).

Wow! That's quite a difference. Did you mostly play with older balls? I think I used a lot of relatively new ones.

Thanks for the info. Does yours really still look "fresh"? Here is a look at mine after about 5h of playing (freshly cleaned). That's why I was a bit suspicious of your claim. I'm used to hybrids looking like shit but still playing fine. So it's not a problem for me.

Alright, good to know. Sorry for the blunt question :) Let me ask some questions to get the information I am missing in your other posts. Which rubber(s) did you play exactly? 48 or 42? 2.1 or 1.9? Red or Black (this might explain our different experience with the fresh look)? On what blade did...

Do you have any affiliation with Andro? Your posts here seem a bit like advertisement to me. I played 3 times with this rubber and it looks at least as bad as other ESN hybrids, maybe even worse. You also don't really share your own impressions much and speak in generalities instead.

My frequency is also ~1300hz. So good consistency there. AJH TMXi Pro had more variance i believe. On the negative side, the finishing quality is not as superb as AJH TMXi Pro. Especially the handle. It is rougher and I had a wood fibre sticking out. The blade surface is also a bit rougher. I...

Awesome! My 87g arrives tommorrow. Hope it's the same frequency.

Have you played the XAXi yet or measures the frequency?

What's the weight if your XAXi? Can you measure frequency?

What new techniques did you learn after switching to slower equipment?

Is it supposed to mean that high on the vertical axis means more control and low means less control? And then left side of the horizontal mean more speed/less spin and right side of the horizontal mean less speed/more spin? It's very confusing. Maybe they planned on making it 3D but didn't...

Korea is 45°. The new blade will be sooo much faster. Slightly slower rubbers will still be a lot faster than your current setup.

Now that I know you are coming from 5 ply all wood, I would also suggest slightly slower rubbers on the much faster blade like vossi. I would go Vega Pro FH and Vega Korea BH. Blades still: 1) Chrome XAXi (if available), 2) Artemis ALXi (if available), 3) Hugo ALXi Pro, 4) Hugo TMXi Pro

So you are using the Lebesson blade at the moment and not the Long 5? Also in your first post you say that you don't like bouncy rubbers like Tenergy 05. Are Vega X and FX-S less bouncy? I'm not sure. Could you clear up any confusion and clearly state what you are using right now and what you...

I have AJH TMXi Pro, 36.5 ALXi, CDS TMX Pro (all not in production anymore), Hayabusa ZL Pro. Omega 8 China, Pro and Euro. Vega Pro H, Vega Europe H. All of them have advantages and disadvantages. What does your coach think? His opinion should be the most relevant.

Not sure. I have not played those rubbers a lot. It's just what I would try coming from Vega X. You could also try Vega Pro. Maybe that one doesn't need a break in period for you. It's still not clear to me what exactly you want. You wrote you like Dignics 09c and would like a tacky rubber, but...

I think thats even faster than MK Carbon.

The new Xiom Blades should be widely available within the next 5 weeks. My choices would be: Blade: 1) Chrome XAXi (if available), 2) Artemis ALXi (if available), 3) Hugo ALXi Pro, 4) Hugo TMXi Pro FH Rubber non Tacky: 1) J&H Z52.5 - 2) Omega 8 Pro - 3) Omega 7 Pro FH Rubber Tacky: 1) J&H...

Can you not get the new Xiom Blades that just came out/are about to come out? Only Hugo or Hayabusa? Just to make sure...you are currently playing Long 5 with Vega X and ELP? Because your profile is different. What do you not like about Vega X and what do you want from a new rubber?
