  1. Is W968 Provincial (Letters) a W968 blade or a HL5 blade?

    Either buy a national W968 or a commercial Long 5. Provincial Long 5 is not worth it since mostly only the quality control is better and it’s hard to resell since there’s no difference other than the card itself. As it’s mentioned above Harimoto SALC is a good alternative for a better quality...
  2. Hybrid Rubbers

    If you switch between looping and power driving/looping then I can totally recommend Victas V15 Sticky. That’s what I currently use on the backhand and I love it. The throw angle is quite low for a hybrid though but I think that’s what makes it unique.
  3. Benedikt Duda, new Rubber?

    Bump. Is Victas gonna release a new rubber soon?
  4. WTT Champions Chongqing 2025 - 11-16 Mar 2025

    Not always. When he played Harimoto the last 2 times Harimoto won the majority of the backhand to backhand exchanges. LSD’s backhand is very good against spin but not that good against pure speed BH dominant players like Hari and Felix Lebrun. though, overall, I still think his backhand is...
  5. DHS poor quality control

    By the way, for anyone interested, the marks do not influence the gameplay at all. I’ve played with this blade for about 70-80 hours and have not felt any irregularities.
  6. V>15 Sticky: Finally !!

    It’s fast enough on my Long 5 which I’d not call a hard blade. it definitely has enough power to finish points, just look at Jang Woojin playing who probably has a harder sponge but everything else is the same. Maybe it is not powerful enough on 5 ply all wood blades but hardly anything will...
  7. V>15 Sticky: Finally !!

    rebound speed is higher for Rozena but overall V15 Sticky is faster than rozena, the former bottoms out too easily
  8. V>15 Sticky: Finally !!

    In China it’s really not that expensive. It’s just as expensive as K3, V20, a little more expensive than glayzer. And its not just a controlled rubber for passive play, its a lot better than all the ones you’ve mentioned as its fast, one of the fastest hybrids I’ve ever tried. It’s a lot more...
  9. WTT Champions Chongqing 2025 - 11-16 Mar 2025

    So many good first and possible second match matchups. This tournament is gonna be lit 🔥
  10. V>15 Sticky: Finally !!

    I’ve played with it for 3 hours now and I like it so much I have to write a review about it. The weight is alright, not too light not too heavy, I forgot to weigh it but it’s lighter than my boosted H3 H37. I use it on the backhand on a Long 5 with boosted H3 BS on the forehand. The Long 5 and...
  11. LK_Tt's Thread with Questions About Equipment

    Other than the regular Haifu Yellow I’ve only tried this newer Haifu national brown booster which is I think in between the black and yellow one and it doesn’t soften the sponge up enough for me so I don’t recommend that unless you’re a professional. So I’d go with regular yellow or national...
  12. WTT Singapore Smash 2024 3/7-3/17

    yes, some people complain too much. There are other players who are known for hiding the ball at serves but are nowhere near close to top 10 let alone No 1, eg.: Anders Lind, Noshad Alamiyan, etc. but it’s annoying that there are situations where Wang Chuqin clearly hides the serves way too...
  13. Butterfly 2025 New Blades: Outer Force ALC, CAF, ZLC

    Only 120 euros? What a steal, oh.. I mean I need to steal it to afford it
  14. Xiom Omega 8?

    sorry, not the Asian cup, it was either Mixed Team World Cup last December or Star Contender Doha or both
  15. best tt shoe?

    Yes, but I don’t recommend them for tt. Badminton shoes have higher heels which eases movement (mostly needed in badminton) but is not good for stability in tt.
  16. DONIC New Zhang Jike blade

    No way they try to sell this original true carbon copy for the same price as a flagship model. The name itself doesn’t justify that (especially, that Zhang Jike himself doesn’t compete anymore so he can’t even use it effectively. Any blade is good for sending multi balls.) it beats me why it’s...
  17. Xiom Omega 8?

    Does anyone know what Jang Woojin uses on his backhand? He uses something with a black sponge and he used to use V15 sticky so I assume it can be O8 China or O8 Hybrid.
  18. Did Lin Gaoyuan get sponsored by a new brand? His backhand rubber has purple sponge

    wow, they actually started making rubbers. Case closed then
  19. Did Lin Gaoyuan get sponsored by a new brand? His backhand rubber has purple sponge

    Well, he did lose to Harimoto (but that’s not surprising anymore)
  20. Did Lin Gaoyuan get sponsored by a new brand? His backhand rubber has purple sponge

    Unfortunately the quality got a lot worse after uploading the pic but it’s clear as day in the original photo that it’s purple. But just compare the sponge’s colour to his t shirt or the colour of the rubber itself.
