I also suggest you look at the mlfm channel for rpb tutorials.

Hmmm, so the hinoki word on the blade is a little sneaky... that being said there was no mention about what kind of hinoki it is so it's just not doing research on my part.

About tpb backhand, the thumb is pushed on the cork block and three fingers are straight and stacked on top of one another, for blocks. For backhand topspin and smash, sort of more like wang hao grip with thumb unhooked and middle and ring finger pressed on the back side, and pinky finger...

Hello, jpenholder here, I use mostly tpb for my backhand, and have the ability to turn it downwards to get topspin. With a good snap it's quite fast too. My backhand is long pimps, and at first it was almost impossible to rpb with it cause the bat must be open so wide, but I mostly use rpb for...

I have been thinking more accessible being the 982, with boosted h3, 2.1mm, as it’s not really at a point where I can say I deserve the t-max. As for the backhand pimps at 0.7mm, I use it during serve receives, (not with twiddling tho), and I do use it at times for backhand chops, (following Joo...

Thank you for the suggestions, I have looked up on the g-max but found that 400+ Sing is quite a sizable price. I found the cypress-s more accessible.

I'm had no trials with both of these brands before, not even borrowing a friends to attempt. But if so, what models do you suggest for the other manufacturers?

As a jpenholder my target when I have saved up enough and is at the right level is to get a 10mm 1ply hinoki Darker Speed 90, jpen. I don't know how but only today did I notice that it was discontinued. Hearing from SF-Libb, it seems that it is a very good blade, hence I'm a little saddened by...

Below is my bat set up.

Lucky to even get training and all these equipment. I train with the local elderly at the Community Club and the first true bat i got was last year for Christmas my current yinhe.

Wow that is thicc. And the weight too. My bat is 178g.

Just wondering do you play 10.5mm 1-ply on one sided jpen or are you shakehand? Just wondering would two inverted rubbers on such thick wood be heavy?

Good mention about 1 ply hinoki. I have a fellow mate i made friends with playing in the local sports hall, and he let me use his Darker speed 70 jpen 9mm, with Black Tenergy 05 hard. It dwarfs my own bat (and so does the price), and you can really feel the shots, especially on fh loops about 1m...

I know this conversation is basically dead by now, but adding my comments as a jpen holder, who is currently using is square head jpen moved from a single sided round head cpen (kaii yoshida style) I have to say there is not much of a difference when game play, but starting off round head is...

I personally use this exact rubber in 40 degrees. It is very fast and control is quite good, and is able to generate a good amount of spin. But, it isn't very durable and isn't the best rubber for feeling the ball.

In a sense it's like an end of an era, and count in Joo Se Heuk too. The defensive playstyle was really something. Now of days it almost seems that it is back and fourth ripping forehands, ending with "chole"! Let's not forget the 2000s and early with Ma Lin and Ryu Seung Min.

That being said we'll all miss the time seeing Xu Xin, Ma Long and Boll in play.

Sad 😔 I do hope that the up and rising Truls Möregårdh and Lebrun brothers still provide hope for this sport.

Personally I use a Yinhe 988 penhold blade with Tacky Chinese rubber for forehand and long pimps on the backhand, (for the rarely used RPB). I find this bat very fast and is quite effective when doing a backhand smash, with the tacky chinese rubber making quite a nice arc. However, it really...

I just searched up this model of of the butterfly blade and I found this listing on Shopee.sg...
