Just a quick follow-up: I re-tested this setup, and the sponge of the Pro Dragon F now completely lacks the dampening, which I mentioned after my previous test session. Now it is a good backhand rubber in classic terms, but now it plays largely differently. I was able to time/speed pressure my...

I think, I have seen your similar question in (at least one) another thread. I'd not copy my whole answer from there, but I can add one more rubber suggestion: Victas V>402 Double Extra: it is marketed as a rubber "for the flexible allrounder". Indeed, not really fast, but I think it is better...

Yinhe blades fair surprisingly well in consistency. I own several pieces of Yinhe U-2, and they play very closely to each other, most of them are within 1290Hz and 1330Hz. Also, they are not dead regarding feeling, there is a healthy amount of vibration in them, which helps with impact feedback...

Then just ignore what I have said, and miss out on that. I have found it for significantly better prices, but since you are completely uninterested, I also don't expect you to bother. Do you really believe, that "handmade in Sweden" does make a difference, when it is about one of their most...

Take a look at Yinhe PD 437 S or PD 537 S at some time, possibly you will be surprised how well those woods are playing.

Faster and more spin usually correlates with less control in a classic viewpoint, but I agree that this is not just that straightforward. It is maybe better to approach this with focusing on different qualities of given rubbers. Based on your currently listed rubber, if you want something not...

One thing you will not get with Pro Dragon L, is soft and light rubber - the sheets weigh around mid-60s (a few of them can be even 68g, maybe the 'soft' sheets are around 63g). And yes, it is not high tension, it keeps its playing characteristics well. The 'mid-soft' sponge feels like at leas...

I have just recently assembled two rackets with these: - DHS PG3Z + Tibhar Hybrid K1 Euro on both sides: For the first time, it was very weird, accuracy was terrible on weaker shots & short game. Now it is noticeably better, after I hit with it for about 2 hours. The racket weighs 199.1g in...

Out of the Yinhe cheap rubber realm, I think you can try all of these: Neptune, 955, Qing (all of these can be purchased with 0.7mm sponge) If you really want thick sponge, I can suggest Barna Legend Long, but maybe you would like to play with thinner sponges to better understand long pimples...

Yinhe E-3 is Limba top | Spruce | Ayous core Yinhe E-4 has White Ash on top ply (the same wood which is being used for Acoustics) - E-4 intermediate ply is Koto So, Yinhe E-4 is not a clone, but much more similar to Acoustic than E-3. Regardless of these, E-3 has pretty good feeling (I just...

970XX A does not seem to be a direct replacement. Pro Feeling uses Volcaryl (which is a Basalt-Arylate fiber), while 970XX is mentioned to be made with Arylate-Carbon (probably not really much difference between Basalt and Carbon, just the former being a bit softer /don't remember, where I have...

I had the same reasoning to worry about consistency when using booster (manually I cannot produce an acceptably even layer). So my reasons not to boost also inlcuded this, but also that I think, regluing sheets is time consuming.

Yes, if used really well - I think, for most of its use cases, there may be better rubbers found, but it is unique in its own way, so it is not completely worthless to try - can be really up to the user - I have seen a Tom Lodziak video with a professional player using it.

There could be a list made with many model names with Yinhe blades not available anymore. For example, I wanted to get Uranus U2 Pro (Wenge top plies), but simply I could not find one. Also, Pro Feeling is not available anymore outside China, which makes me really sad (that was a stellar...

I have tried TinArc 3 and TinArc 5, both in 37° 2.1mm and on both side. TinArc 3 uses the #50 sponge, which is not really bouncy, but has medium power - the rubber topsheet is rather dense and stiff (and it sticks extremely well to protective sheets despite being almost untacky), so it has a...

729/Friendship Pro Dragon L has a dense and very grippy topsheet (while it is meant to be almost non-tacky, protective sheets are stick to it very well). The sponge is not really bouncy, but it has a lot of gears, when it is needed - the topsheet-sponge combination here requires to play with...

Where and when did you get your Yinhe Pro Feeling blade? I am trying to get one since one and a half year without any success (I have it from a prior purchase, so I know, how great it is).

I don't know, how famous they are, but I know two other blades: Yasaka Sweden Extra - 5 ply rated at All+, 5.8mm thickness DHS Power G8 (PG8) - 5 ply also rated at All+ (maybe almost Off-), 6.0mm thickness, thicker medial plies Both are easily available for a budget price, when searched at the...

Based on what I have read, E2: Probably has Hinoki top plies (medial plies are Spruce) E4: Certainly has White (or other subspecies) Ash wood - certain product photos suggest Koto as medial plies, so it is not entirely like Nittaku Violin, but still similar E5: Somewhere I have seen it has...

I can also suggest taking a look at DHS Power G3T and G3Z, also G7X (became available very recently), and at 729/Friendship King series blades (inner KLC with 4 different top ply wood: Padauk, Rosewood, Lignum vitae (Verawood), Ebony).
