supposedly exactly the same as w968 😉

Power is inner alc. But yes, lots of positive reviews on Bilibili, I'm currently looking into buying one myself, but due to the recent lockdown (COVID) in most big cities in China, it'll take quite a long time for them to be able to ship it to me, so I'm patiently waiting lol

Exactly, you need to know what to look for, hence hard to come by because most people don’t know that lol

Ehh, you were asking "Why is boosting illegal in the first place? And if many players do it anyway, is there no penalty or reperussions ? How do they check the racket to see if it has been boosted?" And my post was a direct answer to all those questions: it is illegal because the rule says so...

That's how it works my dude... the head only has spinning wheels that spins the ball, which if you give it a ball they'll spit the ball out, but you need to give it a ball to spin with, i.e. if you don't feed more balls to it, it'll not throw balls at you. And look at how the ball gets fed to...

Hmm, which part of it you don't understand? In the first post, I never said anything about not using it myself, all I ever said is that ITTF rule says it's illegal, and you should not use it in sanctioned tournaments as that will be going against the rules. But in non-sanctioned matches no one...

Currently there's no way to detect if there's a booster applied to the rubber, the only things checked are VOC, thickness (4mm including top sheet and sponge), uniformity (no weird bumps, tears, cuts, missing multiple pips, etc.). And if your equipment didn't go over the limit, it's legal. To...

Speed glue is kind of hard to come by if you’re in the states, and rubber looses the “speed” rather quickly, and people know high VOC is harmful to your health.

IMO, you only need to care about this if you're playing at sanctioned tournaments, technically it's illegal per ITTF rule "The covering material should be used as it has been authorized by the ITTF without any physical, chemical or other treatment, changing or modifying playing properties...

I just use Joola varnish since last time I tried the wipe on poly it didn't work for me too well, i.e. after one layer splinters still happen.

I've been playing at the local club since Jan 2022, masks were required till last week, but I still wear them when I play.

Yep, that's it, mystery solved. It's the DHS 6002 six star paddle's blade lol Haven't found the exact picture, but here's a DHS 6006 six star paddle 6006 is Ch.pen, 6002 is flared. And looks like your friend overpaid for this blade, a brand new one with rubbers costs about $50. P.S. could...

I do think 69% feels much better when I played it, feels softer and can hold on to the ball better, comparing to my other one that's 60%. But it could also be a placebo lol

All I got from this is, Ma Long is a EJ.... 🤣

Yes, which is why I think it looks weird and have no clue what it is. I can't think of any other blades that uses Ma Long's photo on the handle, well, other than counterfeit/clones.

I see you're enjoying the 69% HL5X :D

So… I just bought two 69% ones, one for testing, the other one as a gift / future upgrades for my girlfriend. But due to covid the courier companies in Shanghai has halted their warehouse operations, have to wait for at least two weeks.

I buy all my butterfly products on megaspin, mostly because they ship even faster than butterfly themselves lol

From Ma Long's picture in the handle it looks like the older version HL5, but the pattern on the handle doesn't match what I remember.

DM me with which one you want to look at.
