Oh, one of the bats I built for a colleague is the N10S. Cheap and cheerful. Noticeably slower, even compared with the Y-13. It also had more coarse feedback, though, similar amounts of it. I wanted slow and linear, so Focus 3 Snipe on the back, and you guessed it, B2P 38 on the forehand...

Sooooo, my new setup arrived a few days ago. V14 Pro 729 Battle 3 (40 black) DHS Gold Arc 8 (50 red) Two layers of glue, every surface. ----------- My previous setup: T11S (slightly faster, but little dwell). Battle 3 (39 black). B2P Soft (37 red). I sold this (nephew). An ideal excuse to build...

Since I posted some reviews on RS, my inbox blew up with questions and even suggestions that I should collate my findings and post on a forum. Since I don't have time to write the novel-length post required to cover this at the moment, I thought I would share the start of my foray into taking...

Nope! But you'll certainly be tempted when it's brand new. I looked at a few boosters on Ali Express that first week... And don't read some of the comments under the B3 reviews on reddit. I was almost dissuaded by this tiny minority of negative reviews, which in hindsight, were based on utter...

I signed up literally just to suggest that you try Battle 2 Provincial Blue Sponge (at least 39, DO NOT bother with 38, because it's otherwise identical but with a speed limiter), or even better, Battle 3. In the last couple of months, I've run the Battle 3 39 on a T11S for my forehand and it...
