  1. Nittaku fastarc G-1 is a good rubber? if yes is better for fh or bh?

    G1 is less sensitive to incoming spin than Glayzer 09C and this makes it easier to play hit/block/receive. At the same time, the short game will be a little worse, but there are no solid pluses without minuses. By the way, I like G1 on the backhand, but only on blades with soft wood on the...
  2. Blade upgrade from Korbel (Japan)

    That's exactly it! By the way, I personally like blades with a head size of 158x151 mm and a handle length of 103 mm. At the same time the Butterfly standard is 157x150 mm and a handle length of 100 mm. These three millimeters in the handle, it would seem, are a trifle, but in fact they balance...
  3. Nittaku fastarc G-1 is a good rubber? if yes is better for fh or bh?

    I played your blade and I played G1, though at different times and separately from each other. I think G1 will play well on the forehand on your blade.
  4. Europe Smash Sweden August 14-24 2025

    I was very impressed by the play of the Korean guys - An Jaehyun and Oh Junsung. In my opinion, they took the best from all tennis nations - Chinese-style forehand topspin is very low, powerful and reliable, Japanese speed, footwork and technicality, European ability to play at a distance, a...
  5. Blade upgrade from Korbel (Japan)

    If the question is for me, then I don’t like 7-layer all-wood blades, so I won’t compare them.
  6. Blade upgrade from Korbel (Japan)

    Not quite so. If you compare with Korbel, then Korbel has the structure Limba/Limba/Ayous/Limba/Limba, and Innerforce ALC has the structure Limba/Ayous/ALC/Ayous/ALC/Ayous/Limba. And if you compare Harimoto ALC and Innerforce ALC, then these are the same structures, but the blade head size is...
  7. Blade upgrade from Korbel (Japan)

    I have a few thoughts, maybe they will help you. Jupiter 3 is very good on booster. Without booster it is half the productivity. But in any case it will be a step forward. When you glue new rubber it will be good for 2-3 weeks, after that the factory booster will evaporate and J3 will...
  8. How do I add weight to a racket?

    You can use heavier rubber or more layers of glue on your rubber.
  9. Help!! How to tamed Yinhe T1s blade!

    Hi, @Bladehunter ! You can reduce the speed and increase control by replacing one rubber on the forehand first. Try a slower rubber of a hybrid type. I recommend you try Jupiter3 (max 38, red). Despite its low price, this is a very tenacious and durable rubber that works great on fast blades. In...
  10. What's the best Butterfly off wood blade?

    There was a question about off blades. Diode V is def.
  11. What's the best Butterfly off wood blade?

    So much the worse for you. By the way, in the final of the tournament WTT Champions Japan both finalists played with innerforce structure blades.
  12. What's the best Butterfly off wood blade?

    In your list you missed at least one blade with innerforce structure. Many people play with such blades.
  13. WTT Champions Japan 2025 - 7-11 Aug 2025

    I haven't followed all the messages in this thread, but for some reason I find it very unpleasant when a crowd attacks one person, this looks like bullying. This should not happen in a civilized world.
  14. Liang Jingkun signs with LOKI

    Judging by the specification, the maximum weight for the R series should be within 85+3=88 grams, but in fact it is almost 10 grams more!
  15. How to maintain grippiness of shoes

    A bit off topic. My Mizuno Wave Bolt 7 wore out in a year. In that same time, the soles of the budget Asics Upcourt 5 look almost unworn.
  16. Best rubber under $5?

    I tried the blue 868 with Japanese sponge a long time ago. Very decent rubber of the old type, very sticky and tenacious, not fast even with a booster and not heavy in weight. For fast and heavy carbon blades, where you need to slow down the speed and balance the weight, this is good. For its...
  17. Cheap blades for xiom vega on both sides

    To be honest, there are more questions than answers to your post. What did you play with before and what do you play with now? At what level and in what style do you play? What chinese rubbers did you play with before and why did you switch to Vega? The Vega series has several versions: Vega...
  18. Want to know why Yinhe Pro 05 is so head heavy?

    We have a saying - "A good thought comes later" :-). In fact, when the blade board is heavy, there is not much that can be done to change the balance closer to the handle. In fact, there are two options - increasing the weight of the handle or decreasing the weight of the blade. All the Yinhe...
