That is hilarious and I guess to be expected. I suppose BTY-Joola lawyers had a friendly chat and the naming will eventually change to Hyper ARY-c due to it. If you check Joola's product video on the link you posted even the Freeze has AL-c printed on the bladeface.

Yes, they are. My FL feels quite fat. Fatter than normal Viscaria FL and much fatter than Super Viscaria. I hate the Super Viscaria FL handle, it's totally ruins the blade. I hope the FZD S-ALC is better. I only tried one Super Viscria and the handle totally ruined my experience. Even if it is a...

Hovering Dragon is not a hybrid in the sense that it doesn't have a tacky topsheet. However the sponge I think is Japanese and the rubber topsheet is Chinese. In that sense it's a hybrid and feels kinda like a speedglued rubber. But not ESN-like... I think the definition of a tensor rubber is...

Indeed, I was sad when Stiga moved to ESN as the manufacturer. I thought they're gonna break up with Daiki or whoever made their Japanese rubbers. Yes, I think they make the rubbers for Nexy, most likely the Neottec rubber too that got some traction a few months ago. Chances are that if it's a...

Yes, Mantra, Airoc, Calibra, etc etc were all Japanese made.

The Gold Arc 5 and 8 are ESN as well, the Tin Arc series was the Chinese "tensor" copy. There are a few Chinese made rubbers that are non tacky and have cake sponge. 729 Presto series, Yinhe Moon (Speed), Victas TR, Yasaka Hovering Dragon. But all of these play quite differently. I guess the...

I actually use Chinese rubbers a lot and you are right they are smaller sheets. But as I said manufacturers could use two sizes so they could cater to your case too. This is a great idea even if it would create conflicts among some players. But I wonder what rubbers could be created if someone...

My friend in CD says her area (Wenjiang district) is out of lockdown.

If you're still referring to the handle it can be made from any material. It could be even from metal or fully carbon fiber.

I really like how Yinhe and DHS on some sheets apply glue on the sponge in the factory. Surely with specifically designed equipment and dry area with optimum heat profile they could do a better job applying the glue evenly and with an optimum thickness than me at home. This would be a cost for...

Does the K3 have one of those C-touch topsheets like Bluegrip C2? One of my friend's C2 is showing wear marks really fast and severely too. These rubbers must be sooo professional that you must change them every 2 days 🤡

I know, but search is not so smart 🙃

The 80 sponge is pretty bouncy, and stable. I'm a pretty big fan of loop killing, I like to end a point ASAP and I strongly believe what the opponent cannot reach or react to is the best shot. The H8-80 can do it, but I feel like for proper loop killing harder sponge would be better. Like the...

Now there is a Revolution high viscosity glue. The name is really bad, since it's not thicker at all. But it is stronger than normal one. I'm a huge DHS no 15 fan, I've been praising that to no end on the forum and it is truly great. The high viscosity Revolution I think is better. It's lighter...

Title fixed. THX

I hope you are reading tabletennisdaily! You should! I would like to give some advice to all of you potentially even help you have more profit while we will save the Earth a little bit too while at it. I have collected some ideas over the years that have come across my mind that every...

Haven't tried yet. I don't think the blade requires it for me. I will try later on but I can already tell without even trying that it will be good since it's 3g lighter than H8-80, and will bottom out later due to being harder. The feeling will be similar, flat hits worse, blocking worse, touch...

I added pics. I'm a bit lucky, it has some fishscale pattern. Hope you have the 40deg big dipper on your hand. The 38 on BH felt a bit soft and bottomed out for me quite easily. But it was really nice to banana flick with it and driving from a few steps back was also nice. So for FH 40deg is...

Well with the Joola Super ALC blade the 38deg H8-80 on FH feels like a rocket, maybe I can get used to it. Since the H8-80 at 38deg is already a heavy rubber (52g cut) and really fast I was thinking of maybe slowing it down a bit with a H8, 2.15, 40 deg one. But like I get conflicting info on...

Wow, I already find the H8-80 quite bouncy and fast. I was thinking the normal H8 is slower. Guess I am wrong.
