I tried the R9 briefly and I am not sure if I got a bad sheet or it's just so bad but for me the R9 was not great at all. I would describe it as super dead but honestly a recent H3N provincial BS was super dead for me. Before I had H3 national BS and that was fast and lively so I am not sure...

I think B3 handles humidity just fine. I don't have an issue with it. I think it's pretty comparable with how H3 national handles it. I'm saying the national since that has a similar topsheet surface as B3. Similar kind of matte, commercial H3 for me was much more glossy.

I have the one with 37deg sponge. To me the topsheet feels very supple and the grip seems good. Less bouncy than a V15 but not that much. Not sure about how spinny it will be or how easy to use but so far to me it looks pretty high quality.

Still looks really good. I think there is something in what you say that even the rubber drinks up some oils and changes a bit. I just use my good old Revo cleaner and rejuvenator and it keeps the B3 topsheet in originalish condition. After 2 months mine is like this. Gonna test Gold Arc 9 on...

What is really interesting is that since the weather is getting warmer the rubber got a bit softer. That is normal for any rubber of course but now it kind of started to make a clicking sound like rubbers that imitate speed glue effect. Sure it is not like Tenergy or 47deg big pored ESN rubbers...

If any of you clowns inspire a new Twilight movie that I have to watch with any female I am engaged with I will for sure make you sneeze or hiccup or worse. (for sure my wished will be worse)

I pray to someone up there that lodro does not start to sell stinky bath water nor does he start an onlyfans channel.

I have the same experience with K3 and Bluegrip C2. After a good training session I already seen marks on the topsheet which is odd since D09c doesn't have any for about a week. That's like 2h vs 10h for me. In fact I'm pretty sure K3 had marks after a good topspin... So I just assume every...

I do the same, I put my wallet and phone in my bag too together with the racket. I'm pretty sure my debit card is fine in the most generic 20 year old Nike wallet on the planet and my phone I don't even care about since I doubt little magnets can influence it.

Or SP players or defenders with LP. If the backhand rubber is light the H3 Turbo Blue is an excellent option. Actually I wonder how would it perform on a light but fast balsa blade. I suppose it would be pretty good. Big Dippers on Yinhe T11+ are working like a charm.

Wow, well B3 is a hard switch for someone coming from grippy Japanese or German rubbers but hang on. Not the hardest switch tho since B3 is not too slow like some other sticky Chinese rubbers. Like you get an old PF4 and hemorrhoids with it as you try to get the ball over the net from 2 meter...

I think Mantra Pro M is like the perfectly boosted G-1. QQ in backhand side was a bit hard for me to deal with for some reason. Like it didn't want to bounce as much, especially with weaker strokes. Mantra Pro M doesn't have this issue. For forehand I still think QQ is better than Mantra Pro M...

I haven't noticed that. The magnet it has is not that strong, I doubt it will interfere with anything. I have the blade and the weights in my racket case, I doubt the magnetic field outside the case is stronger than Earth's.

No, not a good bat. I would not spend 50 or more EUR on it since from Aliexpress you can buy much better Chinese rackets for the same price. Those paddles quality is night and day better.

Has anyone tried this glue? Is it any good? It's a water based glue but it comes with a brush. I'm kind of interested...

I was wondering if the Moon 12 qualifies as a hybrid, and I think it does too.

My V14 pro has splintered at the very edge. Otherwise it's solid. The koto is very razor thin, never seen koto or any wood ply this thin. I think Yinhe does a great glue job. For price pref the Yinhe is much better, but you know at high end stuff to get a little bit better you need to pay a lot...

Okay, but is it better quality tho? Butterfly is a lot cheaper in China too than in 1st word countries but I'm not sure it's worth it...

I have a V14 pro @ 94gramms, it is great, I would take it over any BTY Viscaria-like blade I ever had. The only better blades I have are Yinhe D715, Stiga Inspira Plus. But the Yinhe V14 Pro has some advantage since the top koto ply is very thin, paper thin so it feels very sharp and lively...

If you are looking at resell value in the future, then sure get the Butterfly Super Viscaria. If you look at quality and price get the Joola Zhou Qihao Hyper Ary 90 or whatever its name is nowadays. In the beginning it was Joola Zhou Qihao Super ALC 90. The South Korean blade maker makes better...
