  1. DHS Hurricane 8-80 review: A great hybrid backhand rubber

    @victormanriquey as stated. It is official. I just glued the h8-80, on my main blade. I won my 3 match in today's league. But I know why and what I am getting with the h8-80. The test on my Stuor confirmed it. I putted 2 small layer of Haifu these time. I did 1 heavy I think on the first sheet...
  2. DHS Hurricane 8-80 review: A great hybrid backhand rubber

    Coming from T19 on BH, to H8-80. I do enjoy the quality of the rubber. I struggled with the throw angle of T19 being really high, and the rubber not being tacky. So many times the ball slipped from the sheet. I am too used to thin brush with tacky to recover when I am late and can't hit brush...

  5. Go for Fang Bo B2X or Hurricane Long 5

    I always struggle to understand the meaning/feeling of muted. It means less feeling ? More absorption ?
  6. Big Upset with W968 Golden Grand Slam Version

    I have never been that technical into TT equipment, but as an engineer, I find it interesting now with how you explain it. I am hanging on this forum while waiting for 3D experience to load my rocket launchpad :)
  7. Go back to Hurricane?

    HI, hope your doing well. I suggest you to go with H3 NEO Orange sponge 39. The beginner friendly H3. Boosting helps, but at your level, i would go with 1 layer. If no booster, it is fine, but the H3 needs to "break in". Booster kinda remove this period. Break in, is like when you get a brand...
  8. Go for Fang Bo B2X or Hurricane Long 5

    I can't wait. HL5 feels like the best piece of equipement i got since the Fang bo 2 a decade ago. But more importantly, the comparison with WCQ and SYS interest me.
  9. Big Upset with W968 Golden Grand Slam Version

    The changed feeling, was a harder feeling. Limba is soft, and the sealant make it harder, kinda like koto is harder than limba. The flex, and probably the frequency remained the same, but feeling wise, it felt harder. On both wing, and i boosted only FH. But yeah, I probably did it wrong...
  10. Big Upset with W968 Golden Grand Slam Version

    Well, I did not know that sealing a blade changed the feeling. I learn that it avoided splintering, that is why i tried to seal my blade. But then, the feeling changed significantly to me. + The surface was not sticky. I used white glue from Rev.N3 normal viscosity, and my boosted H3 (curved)...

    The vernish i used once to seal my Fang Bo B2, i followed the manufacturer process (Xiom). It changed the feeling completely.
  12. Go for Fang Bo B2X or Hurricane Long 5

    Have you played with regular Bo2 ? To me it felt smiliar to the Long 5, but long 5 does it better. Flex, medium+ throw, late kick (earlier on long 5, and more kick overall), controllable, and head heavy. Relatively thin handle compared to BTY Viscaria.
  13. Big Upset with W968 Golden Grand Slam Version

    Exactly. Well, a mix of WCQ and Ma Long. I focus more on the 3rd ball 5th ball attack like WCQ, but when the point is on, I am more like Ma Long, controlling with BH to get me a ball on FH to attack. I studied a lot Ma Long recently, and it helped me improve my game a lot. Before, I was studied...
  14. Loki adc special vs dhs w968

    What is spring effect ? On a rubber it makes sense, but on a blade, I am curious. Also, drier ? What do you mean ? I am not familiar with those terms for blades. I think they should have pretty similar composition, as LJK played 968 before LOKI partnership. Also, there is a tons of LJK ADC...
  15. Big Upset with W968 Golden Grand Slam Version

    My BH allways had spin. Instead, I gain stability in blocking with it. To me, the head heaviness actually helped me in BH. I have this inertia that allows me to "know" where my hand is, and add stabiliy to my shot. (More like a feeling, already hard to explain in my native language, so in...
  16. Big Upset with W968 Golden Grand Slam Version

    I agree. Many young player plays with speed. I allways played with spin (I think people who played with the old celluloid ball were spin focused). And the young player can play with massive speed both wing, boum boum each side. Those player, I play with spinny slow ball, they strugle a lot more...
  17. Big Upset with W968 Golden Grand Slam Version

    No problem on my GOlden Hurricane long 5. Top quality, no splinter. I don't know if it was sealed (I bought it 2nd hand), because it does not look like it. Feeling is amazing. So far, the best blade I had. I did play with Viscaria, I did not like. DHS blade, and handle just works amazingly well...
  18. DHS Hurricane 8-80 review: A great hybrid backhand rubber

    I am curious about your review/comparison of the 3 top DHS blades. Don't put me in temptation lol. :o I want to settle on gear. I think what's good about H8-80 is that it is slow and controllable. In match, i would rather put a slow spinny ball on the table than net or out. I played only 2...
  19. DHS Hurricane 8-80 review: A great hybrid backhand rubber

    @victormanriquey I played a bit with the H8-80 on my HL5 clone from Stuor. I putted 1 layer of Haifu National White booster on the sponge directly. Wait 24h before gluing it. It is much "faster" and "dynamic" than in my memories. Maybe the blade is for something. But Tons of control, and way...
  20. Go for Fang Bo B2X or Hurricane Long 5

    B2X yes, just like Long5X is stiffer. But the only difference (outside ply quality) between the B2 and Long 5 are dimensions of the head and grip. The B2 is less extreme than the long 5. My point is, Don't buy a Fang Bo B2 for a flat hit game. It is still a blade for spin oriented game, but at...
