  1. dhs-729.eu LEGIT ?

    Totally Legit, I used DHS-729 in the past, unfortunately, after Brexit they stopped shipping to the UK, otherwise i would still be buying from them.

    great to hear LDM7 is playing well and improving.
  5. The last tacky DHS rubber

    I just re watched the tackiness video I did, and the regular Glazer had 1 one anomaly where it picked the ball up, and on the other tries lifted the ball for micro seconds!! Similar to K3.

    Working on recovery after serving is very important, it makes a big difference. Gives you time. The recovery also depends on the serve, if you are serving short heavy back spin then you can recover slightly closer to the table. If you serve FH pendulum heavy side spin wide to receivers BH (off...
  7. The last tacky DHS rubber

    Definitely no tackiness at all?? Shame that the ‘classic’ rubbers are changing, DHS should keep the tacky version and just relabel a new version as H3 / H3 Neo NT (no tack) The sheet of Blue H9 I have has more tackiness compared to many newer Hybrid rubbers, it’s similar to H8-80, very slightly...
  8. Who was the 1st player to use boosters?

    I read somewhere, may have bee 'ping sunday' that some booster's contained Petro Chemical substances that are harmful to health??
  9. Xiom new collection (2024)

    Let’s put it another way. 2 blades - 1 is an all wood fast blade, the other is a 5+2 ply outer carbon blade. They both play the same, is the all wood blade now a 5+2 outer carbon blade?? The actual playing characteristics are not the defining factor, it’s the blades composition.

    because of the manufacturers advertising hype, and the trend towards rubbers that have some tackiness, they jump on the bandwagon and say it’s a hybrid, even though it isn’t. Just like they re-grade their own appraisals of a rubbers performance, because the new rubber MUST have more spin or...

    You talk of properties, and one of the base PROPERTIES of a Hybrid rubber is that it HAS some tackiness. The other is that it has a bouncier sponge (compared to a traditional hard, small pore sponge associated with a Chinese rubber like Friendship 729 / DHS H3)

    That's fine, but for me there has to be some tackiness, so I personally don't agree. the hybrids were originally a tacky Chinese Top sheet on a Euro bouncy sponge.
  13. Who was the 1st player to use boosters?

    I’ve read about speed glue and the Yugoslavian player, Dragutin Surbek using bicycle glue, to glue rubbers and then start the speed glue era. But who is responsible for using boosters, when and how??
  14. Andro R42 or hybrid

    If you go for a Hybrid, you could try the Donic Bluegrip series, they do about 4 or 6 of them, varying sponge hardness, and probably similar tackiness, I haven't tried them all, but there should be one in there that would suit you. Perhaps Bluegrip S1 or S2 Others are Yasaka Rakza Z / Z EH...
  15. WTT Contender Doha 2024

    As far as Harimoto is concerned, How can you slag this fella off? ok maybe about the load shouting!! but he has won, is likely to win again, there are WAY WAY more players that will NEVER win a tournament at this level. The Hype in Japan when he was younger must have been like THE Hype here in...
  16. WTT Contender Doha 2024

    match coverage on the 'live stream' was a huge BOS!!! very disappointing!!

    Hey Takkyu, I remember you posting that you were having a hard time last year, great to see that you're somewhat happier and have got you enthusiasm back!!
  18. How does Timo Boll win at his age?

    TB played very well, not only taking the ball off the bounce, but there were some really heavy trade mark FH top spins as well.
