  1. The blade off Wang Manyu ??

    Hhhhhhhhhh. I actually grabbed mine a few weeks ago. And now I am in China training like there's no tomorrow and I use this as my racket with H3N BS 40deg 2.1mm that I cut and glued first a year ago and before I came to China I reboosted it with plain seamoon. It is fantastic. On BH I just use...
  2. Friendship 729 battle 3

    N Nice, it looks like it can spin well.
  3. I think I unlocked the ultimate cheat code for Butterfly rubbers with Spring Sponge X

    Yes, I tried it and it works with Mantra Pro too but not as well as Butterfly spring sponge. Literally nothing comes close to spring sponge X. Newer ESN stuff also not bad. Old ESN stuff like G1 are not good. Mantra Pro in between. But maybe Mantra Pro doesn't need this. If someone uses...
  4. H3 Commercial or Provincial?

    Like many before said get 39-40deg H3N prov blue sponge for forehand if you are serious. The provincial orange is not much cheaper. Provincial BS H3N or the national version is very light. So one can use a heavy backhand rubber with it if that's your thing. The new ESN rubbers easily go up to...
  5. Hurricane 3 neo

    I noticed this too with recent H3N I opened. I can only speculate they don't give it as much or any factory treatment. Is DHS cutting corners (which they really are if you think about commercial and prov versions) or many asked for this and they obliged...? Or something else? I leave it to...
  6. New Stiga Mantra Pro

    The H is the closest. Both Z2 and Mantra Pro H are rated at 50 degrees.
  7. Friendship 729 battle 3

    I broke already two B3. Bubbling up 😢 I'm not sure if I'm too strong or it's too hot. Now back on DHS H3BS. It took me soem time to adjust back to it but it wasn't like trying completely foreign. If H3 BS lasts longer then it's better for me. I also think since now I use outer carbon blade...
  8. What does “NEO” mean in DHS rubbers?

    What do we got here? A comdedian. Private joker, I admire your honesty.
  9. What does “NEO” mean in DHS rubbers?

    My biggest gripe is that I bought H3N BS 40 national from prott around 2020 early covid time that I just glued on my blade and it was fast as hell. (after coming off of H3N OS39 orange) Was that rubber unreasonably fast? No, but I hit meter long drives for a few minutes, hours until my muscle...
  10. DHS fans unite!

    Heeey, I'm so happy with my 40deg H3 BS on the Stiga Wang Manyu... It's light, it's fast, it's stable as heck, it's spinny... Awwwwwww it's really lovely. 3 layers of thin as heck regular Seamoon did the job so well but my blade is so well working with it too. I knew it from the first time...
  11. How many layers of booster on the Hurricane 3 BS Provincial?

    Just now I applied 3 very very thin layers of Seamoon on my prov 40deg BS and it feels perfect. Thin layers are nice since they get sucked in fast so they don't evaporate in the air and they get sucked in consistently so I don't have these weird patches on the sponge where more booster was...
  12. What does “NEO” mean in DHS rubbers?

    Actually, I'm not sure anymore since in the past H3 Neos smelled very yucky (and were faster) but recently not so much. So DHS might have just pulled a productivity maneuver on us and skipped the boost part (or boosts less), but still ads the glue layer. Some other Chinese companies do this too...
  13. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    The BOA laced Arthur versions look fine. Why the hell did they even release the black and white Rxton is a wonder to me.
  14. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Could be from the same factory as BTY... I doubt tho. I've seen Tibhar branded shoes with the same sole as the Loki one, they changed the butterfly wing patterns to these circles but they're not fooling us. If it's from the same factory then probably they will hold up well enough. Granted Tibhar...
  15. DHS fans unite!

    I killed my 2nd Battle 3 just today. Ok, this one was old, 1 year old but I didn't use it that much but I guess it didn't like being boosted too many times even if it happened with big intervals between. So yeah bubble again. One of my eyes is crying the other is not. On Saturday I'm going to...
  16. TTD, Revspin, review sites are all missing key metric

    Revspin, so cute. Speed ratings: Tenergy 05: 9.3 H3 Neo: 8.4 DHS C8: 7.4 I kind of rest my case. If Tenergy is 9 on a scale of 10 then H3 Neo is at best a 6 and C8 maybe a 3. But some comments there are legit.
  17. From 729 Battle max pro to Battle 3

    The B3 topsheet is night and day better than B2, and Battle Max Pro uses B2 topsheet. B3 sponge is also better but that is less obvious. Not much price difference between these rubbers so might as well try B3. If you don't boost B3 be aware that the first layer of glue will not stick to the...
  18. Broken WCQ blade

    Maybe 😂
