Yeah most rubbers will do bad with humidity, specially sticky rubbers

Thats also true :) Just tested and indeed its very bare bones still.

Yes very good video indeed, he explains difficult concepts in a nice video, things like gears, catapult, why some rubbers (i.e. hard and tacky) need thicker/harder contacts, etc. Kudos to him, video is also very nice to listen and watch

Awesome let us know! Im interested as well!

will come promised ;)

Hey all, This is my last review before the summer holidays and could potentially be a controversial one, but I'm still going to put it here and we see where the chatter goes hahaha So I just finished the review of the Donic BlueGrip C2 (and also finished with reviewing BlueGrip for a while)...

Yes in my own experience after many orders also :D You can also talk to them and they will do their best to give you an specific weight of a blade for example

Yeah start with regular (little bottle) yellow haifu, i buy always from beo store or global sports, those are 100% reliable :)

The 'truth' is usually indeed in the balance and middle. A first time beginner doesnt know what a correct full stroke is, so better focus on fundamentals and compactness, most amateurs waste too much energy and movement that doesnt add power to the shot. So a middle of the road rubber like xiom...

Yeah balls that go to the wide BH are hard to do with weight on right :)

Let us know how TG2 BS goes, i think it will throw lower, be slower and spinnier, but let's see! :) 8-80 is very good indeed, given the right technique and body condition!

Sorry missed this, not for now but thanks for the kind offer! I have a bit too many to test now haha

Yeah dwell is low indeed, and for the backhand i would not do 39, very hard indeed! For the forehand a 38 could work if you want softer, but if you need more catapult then others are better, look fo the nuzns, bluegrips, dna hybrids, etc :)

Thank you! I need to test Rxton 9 still, but it is definitely better than Rxton 5 in the speed and spin area, so for a high intermediate Big Dipper 5 for sure better than Rxton 5, but for beginners and low intermediates, Rxton 5 better, less tempo, more control. Same for Arthur China btw. In my...

Thanks! Yeah agreed, I never had the chance to try it so tough to say :D And indeed, that tensioned + flat arc is the main problem the rubber has, in a way it's like the BlueGrip S1 or NUZN 48 but more extreme. For 15 euros is worth a try if you play on a soft/flexy blade, then this effect is...

Yeah I use Thanks <3 And cannot agree more that serve return is one of the hardest things in TT, you need to adjust as you play to new serves and spin, plus you dont control what you get, tough always

Yep same, those are much better :)

I have not tried the previous BD gens so I cannot comment on it, but definitely not a comeback to H3, those were very very tacky and the new tacky normal is indeed only semi tacky, and indeed BD5 is for sure faster than a normal H3 :)

Hey all! This week I'm back with a small pause in my Donic BlueGrip adventures and with a review of a rubber that I wanted to test in depth for a long time, I'm sure many of you have wondered how the Big Dipper 5 plays as well! It's an interesting budget rubber, for the price it has, the...

I used to like Ti Long videos a lot, but then he started on world records and weird stuff, but the old videos are still very good, he hits a lot of excellent points we can all learn from :)
