  1. Rubber alternative for FH & BH, cheaper

    What hardness do you use?
  2. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    For a beginner use the Rxton 1 and an allround 5-ply blade or similar. I haven't tried the Special, but all the others might be hard to use for a beginner.
  3. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    I really liked the GTX on backhand, but it's not very forgiving so you got to hit the ball right :)
  4. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Put the GTX on backhand and LAC on forehand :)
  5. I wanna play with the big boys!

    Yep. That's just plain stupid :) You could just say "use Tenergy 05. It plays by itself" ;) To get better, at any age and at a lower level, you need to use rubbers that are more linear to really work with your technique and footwork. I'm not 62 yet, but closing in, but I still practice 2-3...
  6. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    I sent a question about them again right now, so we'll see what the reply will be :)
  7. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Still waiting for the Hard ones. Seems like Yinhe has problems producing these still....
  8. best glue?

    It's the oil in the booster that hasn't dried all up. It happens all the time when you're in a hurry :)
  9. Alternative to Stiga Clipper and Intensity

    Sanwei Parla is close. Quite fast and good feeling 7ply wood
  10. Need Help Choosing a New Forehand Rubber (pls)

    Yep. It's easier in a way I think. Easier for someone that comes from Euro/Jap rubbers to use than Battle 2 in my opinion. Yes the durability is nothing I can say anything about so far.
  11. Need Help Choosing a New Forehand Rubber (pls)

    Yes. Unboosted I think B2 is better in the short game. I'd say that you should look at Yinhe Big Dipper 38deg, it's something softer and a bit bouncy. LOKI GTX Pro is also a rubber with a bit more elasticity that could work. And DHS Hurricane 8-80 is really quite nice. Sanwei Gear Hyper is a...
  12. Need Help Choosing a New Forehand Rubber (pls)

    No I wouldn't say that Battle 2 or 3 are like a boosted H3N. They are quite similar to H3/H3N but perhaps a bit softer over all. Battle 3 is a more easy-to-play rubber and has a softer, bouncier feeling than B2. LOKI Arthur China plays like a boosted H3 40deg somewhere. Have you played a lot...
  13. H3 not so tacky?

    Ah that's a good one, but you'll have to work a lot more now then? I tried some tacky hard rubber on a Sanwei Fextra Allround blade, and got that same feeling. Even though the blade is allround 5ply wood, it has some kind of harder feeling, and that fits great with the Yinhe Jupiter III ASIA...
  14. H3 not so tacky?

    No sorry. I'm too small, so I can't buy from DHS directly yet. have to build up my volume :) I think a big company like DHS don't want to get the word out that they have changed something on ther flag ship, so they say that it's all like before :)
  15. H3 not so tacky?

    I always thought that I needed the tackiness for my brushing, but yesterday I glued a Hurricane 3 National Orange Sponge 39deg to my Yinhe Pro 01 blade. Unboosted and it didn't lift the ball for more than 1/10 of a second. At first it was kind of dead, like I'm used to. But after playing a bit I...
  16. So Battle 3 is on sale

    B3 is a more "easy-to-play" rubber. A bit bouncier and a softer touch than B2. The B2 gives you a better effect when playing really aggressively and in the brush-department. But they are quite similar though. For me. I'm used to Battle II Gold/Battle Max Pro 41deg/DHS H3 41 deg. It felt like a...
  17. Hurricane 8, underrated, overlooked rubber?

    The H8-80 has been more tacky for me.
  18. Hurricane 8, underrated, overlooked rubber?

    Well. These are totally different and it depends on how you play with them. H8-80 is faster in weaker shots as it's a more soft, bouncy rubber and H8 is faster when you add a lot of power and start closing the bat angle more.
  19. What Glue should I use?

    TT Revolution No. 3. It always works for me and attachment is really good, and easy to remove as well.
