These are all very similar, spin wise I think Mantra Pro M can do more than G1 and V15 but not by a lot all across the hit ranges. But I wouldn't say the spin makes a huge difference, it's more like how forgiving the rubber. V15 has similar speed but less spin and it is more edgy. You have the...

Companies suck, they should include 3 sizing. Internal length, width and height in MM or CM or whatever non-assfugged metric.

I can do this one with BH, eyes closed, sitting down. The magician can make sure of it.:ninja: Look at him, shiny head, in a winter jacket... I bet igor pulls the vodka from the ground for his boosting convenience.

Every commenter in this thread (naturally except for me) is an absolute n00b for not realizing the master is giving the perfect opportunity for the opponent to hit a roller. 🤡

I really don't wanna go @brokenball on these tests, but... Just a few things to note: they use a 500g??? metal cube for the grip tests. That is not a plastic ball mostly because it is not plastic and not a ball. I have seen rubbers made for plastic ball act like an ice skate ring with the old...

Very good. I used my red medium hard sheet more on BH, nonstop since I got them in Aug and now I guess I have 200-250hours of use in it and it hasn't changed much for me. Sure it has marks on it, quite a few mostly from my fingers but I have not experienced any loss of grip. The sponge is as...

My absolute favorite setup for beginners, advanced or people struggling with injury or just prone to injury is Yinhe T11 blade with two sheets of 37deg Yinhe Big Dipper. The blade is very light, around 70g, it is very fast, but the rubbers are sticky chinese with a bit of a bounce. So this setup...

If someone wants a very thin and even application using an old debit card is pretty great. I used to do that when the water-based glues were introduced. Mainly I did it with Finezip.

I think Mantra Pro is the best bet if you can buy it from Taobao for 160-200RMB. That is in your budget, I guess Mantra Pro H would be a decent D05 and Mantra Pro XH would be a decent T05H replacement and the medium a good T05 replacement. (well I would probably say T19, D19 and T19H...

Yes, it's water-based.

You need to use a bit more glue and spread it fast with as few movements as possible. Especially I would start the first layer on the blade since the sponge you use to spread will suck up quite a bit of the glue. This is the biggest problem with DHS no15, it's a bit hard to use and maybe it is a...

The Tachyon is a lot softer and has a lot more wood feeling than ZQ S-ALC or a Viscaria even. If someone is looking for an all-wood feeling with carbon then it's perfect. My biggest problem with it is the varnish it has, my glues don't stick too well to it. I would probably need to use a German...

Compared to other VIS-ALC blades like BTY or Yinhe or South Korean the WMY feels much softer. But the core is more elastic so it kicks the ball more. It doesn't drop the ball like hard BTY blades. I think it's also more handle-heavy than most blades, which makes sense since the handle is more...

He mentioned this is the all-wood Xuperman blade, the APEX.

Well they speak English, if you know what you want you should be fine. If you don't know and start to do some phylosophical discussions about stuff I think you will have trouble 😅

Normally I would be skeptical too but in this case what is the gain for Stiga? They don't sell the blade internationally it's not even in their catalogue...

There's one in Wan Chai, I think it is called winner sports. They had a good variety of stuff.

I need to amend this as I was saying stuff that I now know are not the case. Like I said I don't get why the Cybershape was dropping the balls. I now know. It's not the wood, it's the rubber. The Mantra Pro sheet needs to oxidize for a few days to reach peak grip. I tried the Cybershape paddle...

One more thing I noticed since I glued 2 new sheets of Mantra Pro on a Cybershape. Like all rubbers, this also has some anti-stick material on the top so that during production the workers can remove it more easily from the mold. Kinda like how crepes and pancakes are easier to remove from...

In fact many amateurs use Battle 2 Double fish, Young shine etc etc H3 clones.
