  1. Are the ESN differently colored sponges (green, purple, red etc.) actually meaningfully different?

    I don't have any sources but as for me I don't find any difference in feel between for example Bluefire M1 and Xiom Vega Pro. Of course different manufacturers make a bit different sponges(mainly on hardness) but it's not like H3s BS and OS. So I suppose it's just marketing. Like Andro's color...
  2. Long V vs. Harimoto Alc

    FangBo might be harder. But I haven't tried it. DHS Long is the same speed as Stuor but harder and firmer so it better suits with hard Chinese rubbers. Soft rubbers(under 39 DHS) play well on Stuor
  3. Best Chinese Alternatives to D05 Tier List

    I think this thread should be named " Best Chinese BH rubbers(for me) Tier List. Because all the rubbers mentioned are not even close in feel and characteristics to D05. Even ESN and Daiki can't make an alternative. I agree M12, AK47, Aurora Max are great for BH but they are really different...
  4. Sanwei target national new version

    Yes it has. With Mantra H, Jupiter 3, Bloom Arc, H3 I can powerloop with arc while with the same movement with STN the ball drops into the net. So I had to adjust and brush really properly. Other than that, it's a very good rubber. Powerful sponge, more lively than H3 Prov Blue, easy to achieve...
  5. Moon 12 Blue on sale!

    I read your post and decided to reglue my M+ to the carbon 729 Blue Arylate blade. I felt Moon 12 was toooo balanced and decided to glue J3 37 on BH. But now I got that with Jupiter I land onto the table only open-ups🤣. Thank you for the reminder I will try M12 again!
  6. What's this cheap glue?

    The effect is gone after 3 hours but is better to wait 2 days to get the voc fully evaporated Water based glue damages the blade but the VOC glue doesn't. It may damage a very proned rubber with large pores in sponge, Rakza 9 for example. I glued Stiga Mantra H with speedglue, it feels OK...

    Does anybody knows something about this new 729 blade? 729 Blue ADvance https://sl.aliexpress.com/p?key=VvvvOJ 729 Blue ALC is like Viscaria so Blue AD might be like Viscaria Super ALC? Oops, the link doesn't work but you can find the blade on Ali
  8. fixing the bad habit of straightening the upper body during looping

    I think big belly makes you lean forward. It's heavy, it's in front of the body => more weight forward. The main is not to fall forward on your face😁 But if you have a big butt...
  9. cheap aliexpress rubbers vs. more expensive ones.

    Pros don't play with such a cheap equipment because they have contracts and use top notch rubbers and blades. So you take a common Tensioned rubber. E.g. Andro Rasanter R47. It is 50$. Would Jupiter 3 at 15$ be 3 times worse? Short answer: No. Long answer: they are different rubbers for...

    I don't think my rubber is falling apart🤣
  11. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    @Attitude Hello! I'm curious why did you change LAC to 729 B2BS/R9 on FH? Do you boost?

  15. Skyline TG2 Alternatives

    Do you use new or old STN?
  16. Skyline TG2 Alternatives

    729 battle 2 blue sponge(prov, nat), orange prov. These rubbers are more tacky than the new Skylines and Hurricanes and they have low throw still being very grippy. The main problem is the quality control. One sheet may be super tacky, another one absolutely not. But these B2 rubbers are...
  17. What can be a good BH rubber pairing with H3 NEO FH?

    For BH use you can try DHS Hurricane 3 Neo Ma Long FH 42. It's pretty cheap and easy to use, good for beginners. Although it says FH but for FH this might be too soft so a good deal for BH. If you'll not like it I could buy it from you for a good price at 20$😁
  18. Is Sanwei Target National a good forehand rubber?

    Old STN is good rubber. It's low throw but not too much and it's easy to counter topspin with it. Also it's pretty powerful. Soft topsheet makes it easy to lift backspin
