For me its not about speed. The Xiom Euro is also great in short game maybe only a little bit more unforgiving as it is harder and stiffer. Main point is that the HLV is not well controllable when the game gets faster, though it is slower and more controlled in the slow game... I hope you can...

Well, for me superbackhand's comment seems to make sense. I restarted to play table tennis 15 months back and tried several setups since. Settled on a viscaria like Xiom Vega Euro blade for a bit and then tried a HLV copy (ovtcharov No1 senso) because i was curious. The HLV is slower and more...

Hexer PG has more catapult so serve and receive and blocking is difficult compared to G1 .

You could try the same with wood glue. Not as stiff as epoxy but more stable than the wood itself. Try it with an injection and a cannula to get the flu deep into the cracks until it comes out...

Also many similar blades from other brands available. Gewo Force Arc Donic True Carbon Andro Treiber K Yinhe V14 Pro

Boll ALC and Viscaria are the same composition. Get one in the same weight range. Grips are different though...

I think the tackiness has a bigger effect on this test than the bounciness...

How is the blade size of the hl5 copy? And weight?

Sure he is right as long as he tells the truth. You have to deal with it. By the way this is very similar in double matches...

@Stuart Marquis Are you playing international matches? Wow!

Same topic came up in a german forum 2009. They asked ittf official and he stated via e-mail: Odd Gustavsen bestätigte auf Emailanfrage, dass "ITTF only authorises the top sheet, not the sponge. The Law 2.4.3. governs the use of sponge." But the discussion also pointed out, that ittf planned...

There are many ox pimples out rubbers you can also get with different sponges. All have the same number, so i assume the topsheet is approved for its own. Sponge verwion: How can you tell if the sponge is the one glued in the factory or by the user? You cant. A friend of mine who is also chief...

H3 neo is just a factory tuned H3, so it has the same topsheet!

So tell me why different H3 always have the same ittf numbers? Even the neos have the same. For my understanding only the top sheet has to be approved but the sponge is interchangable as long as the sandwich including glue is below 4mm...

Donic True Carbon Inner. Used one around 35-45€...

I had a similar story with joola. Found MY FH rubber in the Joola Golden Tango PS. Had a red one in the past, very tacky, but some minor holes in the top sheet, no problem but i wrote an Email to Joola because i was curious about the QC. Another black sheet, very tacky, everything ok, but worn...

I have played a lot of tacky rubbers before (Bloom Spin/ Power, Origin, H3/Neo, G666, TGII) and I think its helpful to give them a little massage to break in. Just press the rubber with your fingers down firmly over and over again for a few minutes (with protection sheet applied)- this has the...

Thanks for the replies. @ creek were is the information from? The edges look the same as the W968. Is the W968 much stiffer in your opinion? Maybe I will stick to my Xiom, but I was curious about one of the most famous blades and had the opportunity to get one cheap. But if it is really that...

Hello together! I am new to this forum as there are not many reviews in German forums to HL5/ w968 blades. I got an 86g st Donic Ovtcharov No1 senso, which ist said to be a w968 or at least an improved hl5 (i cant tell as i only have this particular dhs made blade). Normaly a play with viscaria...
