i would also add to this: most professional players are not EJ's and have one blade they chose to play when they where quite young and then mostly stick with that for a looooong time. imagine to be a fan of ZJK when you where quite young and then buy yourself a viscaria, in the idea you will...

i didn't played it till it was done since i switched to bluestar A1 before, but it was normal esn sticky hybrid rubber durability with having a bit of early wear and tear on the topsheet that didn't effected the play but mostly stayed the same. judging from that and my experience with other...

i tried both and they are really different rubbers. just because they made in the same factory doesn't mean they are the same. K3 is softer and has way more catapult, a hybrid closer to tensor. C2 is more in the realm of D09c, a hybrid closer to chinese.

since i play hugo HAL i can attest you that donic PPP plays nothing like it. HAL is way stiffer and way faster with a lower trajectory. HAL plays more like an easier to play outer carbon blade while PPP plays like a slighty stiffer 5ply allwood. Falcima same as PPP but stiffer and faster...

once i tried the hurricane 8-80 in the really soft version and i think it just get's to slow with the tackiness. you need to put some power in to overcome the tack, but if the sponge is soft, then it doesn't support the power enough like a hard dense sponge would. also the ball hold was way to...

really good article! some things i wanna add to it from my own experience: tacky and hard rubber are more precise and follow your stroke better. the more spin you put in, the higher the ball fly out and the flatter you hit the more direct the ball flies. so the window of ball curve and...

if you already decided to have the priority line, then i would say suck out the rich and make the priority price really high so that the waiting line there will always be low and by that you can afford someone helping you with basic steps of production to produce more blade for the normal line...

maybe you should look up dark limba and then know why this is just a normal variation. mine look like the one in the picture more dark and gray not as orange as in ttgearlab, but as doppelmoral said, we will never know for shure and if you rather want to believe that there is some dark secrecy...

a picture from yesterdays match against patrick franziska at montpellier

i can just say that my two hugo HAL looked exactly like the one in the video you linked when they were new.

i remember ma long doing this shot quite often. mostly he chops to the left side, but sometimes he chops also to the right side and this is the same as in truls clip

my commercial version is also dark, because they use black limba instead of normal limba and if you play with it it gets even darker, so i can imagine this can make the confusion. the arylate in HAL is orange.

but what isn't similar then in your view? it is as said just a heavier version with maybe better wood selection.

maybe you can share the pic. but i still can think that it maybe is just the dark limba underneath that gives the illusion of a carbon layer

i also doubt that, i think when you play this blade yourself and see how hugo plays you know that his version must be the same but maybe just super heavy. it is not like the time when fan zhendong played the 'stiga infinity' and everybody was like: nooo wayyyy this blade is just to slow for the...

i still don't understand how they could cut out the Hugo HAL blade. it is just one of a kind... 😢 also hugo itself still plays with it?? really weird choice of them

i also push short topspin balls if the ball is low. no problem with that no matter how heavy in case a soft flick is not threatening enough and a fast flick would have to less room for errors (also i'm not good with that). so if you play a short topspin to my forhand i will push it down 90% of...

g-1 doesn't have a long arc, rather a high one and this can also lead to overshoot if you not close the racket enough or go forward with your stroke. HAL is a nice blade, but still rather stiff, so coming from 5 ply an innerfibre blade is easier to transition to. vega x has the same spin...

in your bio it says you play dignics 05, what is wrong with that? it is a super fast and hard rubber
