  1. Clipper like type of blade?

    Yasaka Galaxya, Donic Persson 7 are both slightly milder takes on the Clipper formula
  2. Is short pips answer to receiving serves?

    Sp do not resist spin enough to make a dent in ones (lack of) receive ability imo. You need to hug the table to take the ball early and cannot rely on the topsheet to grab the ball when you need to spin it, the margin for error over the net is tighter than with smooth. But in exchange you do not...
  3. Anders Lind’s new blade: “Donic Anders Lind Hexa Carbon” question, please review it if you use it

    Flared handle size is definitely smaller than my FZD series, and more similar in size (if a bit rounder) from Super Vis. I sold my Super Vis and my Lind is being borrowed so I can't compare directly
  4. Butterfly 2025 New Blades: Outer Force ALC, CAF, ZLC

    Outerforce Super ALC when? I like the feeling of the Freitas and the performance of FZDSALC and I'd love to try out an outer SALC with limba top
  5. I want to upgrade. TB Alc, fzd alc or viscaria?

    I'd honestly suggest putting a new set of your old rubbers on whatever new blade you're going to get. Its better to change one thing at a time
  6. I want to upgrade. TB Alc, fzd alc or viscaria?

    What do you want from these rubbers? Are you familiar with them? They are fast and bouncy and can be difficult to play with if you are not used to them.
  7. I want to upgrade. TB Alc, fzd alc or viscaria?

    FZDALC has a slightly larger handle than Viscaria and TBALC so it would make sense to get it if your hands are bigger
  8. I want to upgrade. TB Alc, fzd alc or viscaria?

    Why straight to the blades? In comparison to Stiga ARC these are all very hard and direct. Have you tried these blades before?
  9. Which fh rubber?

    I was asking someone else, but my point is that a boosted hurricane is essentially a completely different rubber than without boost. This might not be the answer you want to hear but my best advice for your equipment dilemma is to use the rubber you can play the best with on average, and just...
  10. Which fh rubber?

    Have you tried a fresh boosted Hurricane before?
  11. Real or fake ZJK T5000 ? Please help

    First off the blade in photos does not appear to be ZJKALC, but ZJKT5000. You can tell because the stripe in the handle is purple (ALC is blue) and the insert on the bh side of the blade has faint text saying T5000. Second it looks legit to me, P serial code indicates 2015 production date which...
  12. ❓What Is Your Setup, and WHY?

    I think it is more about the balance of the blade, the handle on FZD is a bit wider than Vis/ZJK so there is a bit more weight in the handle. D80 is the "in between" Dignics. 05 is more aggressive but it is stricter in its requirements to land your shots, 64 is easier to use and more direct but...
  13. Xiom new collection (2024)

    You can have 2 samples of a single model and have them play noticeably different. I'm not convinced that there much if any difference between OffS and Hayabusa Off just from looking, handles may be different shapes, but visually they look the same in terms of construction
  14. Why hurricane 3 are less tacky?

    Provincial grade is way easier to find nowadays compared to 10, 15 years ago, it would make sense that DHS would lower provincial QC standards to increase distribution and profit. National is also much easier to find, and I have been able to find national Neo for under 60USD on Aliexpress during...
  15. Discontinuation of Darker Speed 90

    I don't know what hardness scale DoubleFish uses but if its similar to the one used by DHS, then G1 is softer. You want something soft and light for bh to start out with, something easy to use- like KTL Rapid Speed, RITC Focus 3 Snipe, Palio AK47 Blue.
  16. Discontinuation of Darker Speed 90

    You say tacky both sides, but Fastarc G1 is not tacky. If you are using the DHS scale of harness then G1 would be closer to 38, not 40. I don't even know if they make 38 degree Hurricanes anymore but the H3Neo 37 I tried felt softer and mushier than G1. Do you have any experience at all playing...
  17. Rules regarding RPB side of racket

    If you are not competing then it doesn't matter. But legally you can really do whatever with the racket where your fingers rest as it is not considered a striking surface
  18. I TESTED MA LONG’S ACTUAL TABLE TENNIS BAT!

    I bet it's likely that for really high profile players wanting market versions of a blade, the manufacturer would at least separate out samples of a desired weight to provide a pool the end user could select from. Schlager has stated in the past that he was using off the shelf Primorac Carbon...
  19. Are inner carbon blades an exception to "don't go carbon yet"?

    Your point stands but he used the Butterfly Defence II, all willow wood with 5 plies in the handle and 3 in the head
