  1. Why does everybody say Pro 05 is HL5 clone?

    Other than B2, i havent really found one yet. But thats why i was hoping W81 would be good. I also have a lemuria long 5 clone on the way
  2. Why does everybody say Pro 05 is HL5 clone?

    Here is xvt 600 and pro 05. Same core thickness. Xvt has higher frequency though because it is zlc. I think zlc works better on this structure though. Zlc feels quick and snappy. Alc feels more muted, without the springy flexy feel.
  3. Why does everybody say Pro 05 is HL5 clone?

    I haven't tried the 05 yet. I might just return it...because I am not a fan of this structure. I've had a few of this type of blade already, and I don't really like any of them.
  4. Why does everybody say Pro 05 is HL5 clone?

    I'm surprised to hear that. I can't imagine that a thickened core blade can feel the same as HL5.
  5. Why does everybody say Pro 05 is HL5 clone?

    Xvt zl 600 is also this thick core structure. But i knew that going in. So its not really a HL5 clone, despite claiming to be w968 structure.
  6. How to measure blade frequency?

    Right. But explain in simple TT terms, what am i measuring? Frequency tells me the surface hardness?
  7. How to measure blade frequency?

    Lol i dont know what you are saying. All i know is that the frequency isnt enough to tell you the flex and feeling. My Stuor Harimoto and Sanwei 75 inner are 1440-1450, but feel much better in their flex and springiness
  8. How to measure blade frequency?

    Yeah. I talked frequently in the past about how my Stuor Harimoto is unusually quick and snappy and responsive. Maybe the frequency plays a part in that.
  9. Why does everybody say Pro 05 is HL5 clone?

    Pro 05 has same core thickness as my Atletico Power. Definitely thicker than Long5 or dhs B2
  10. How to deal with the long pips fast swipe??

    I never was able to hit a loop on this ball mainly because I didn't have enough time. The swipe ball was coming in too hard and fast. It's almost like a punch. A few times I tried to lift it upwards with a open-face drive shot. These attempts usually just went straight into the net. The...
  11. Why does everybody say Pro 05 is HL5 clone?

    I just got Yinhe Pro 05 delivered because i keep hearing how good a clone of HL5 it is. I was surprised to see that the core is thicker than HL5. This is more like HL5x or Atletico Power. I can't possibly be the first guy who has ever noticed this. Why does everybody talk about pro05 as a...
  12. How to deal with the long pips fast swipe??

    Usually this situations arises when I push to his LP bh. He does the sideswipe hard to my fh corner usually. I can't push it or it'll popup high. But I haven't been able to loop it either, its too fast and deep angle. There was a really good video of somebody doing this shot on youtube, but...
  13. How to deal with the long pips fast swipe??

    I've been playing a 2100 long pips player. Our games are really close and often go long into deuces. But he has a "swipe" shot from his LP bh that is really hard to deal with. Instead of pushing with his bh, he swipes quickly sideways-upwards. The ball then comes very fast and very dead. How...
  14. $12 Fake Tenergy Review

    I tested out the boosted fake Tenergy. The speed, grip, loop are all very nice. My bh loops are quite effective and lethal. However, the throw angle is still low. It's kinda hard to do a good punch shot. You kinda need to do a loopy shot on every ball. I really really wish the throw angle was...
  15. How to measure blade frequency?

    And my favorite Stuor Harimoto ZLC is 1450. I think that 1400-1450 is my sweet spot
  16. How to measure blade frequency?

    Ok I measured the frequency of my Atletico Power, and it comes to 1340. That seems like a nice low frequency, it should be a nice soft flexy blade. But to be honest, I hate the feeling of the Atletico Power more than all my other blades. It feels way too stiff. So maybe frequency is only...
  17. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Can you take a side photo with B2 to see how thick the core is on the Pro 05 vs B2?
  18. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Got Pro 05, 1330hz. It is a bit on low frequency. I was hoping for 1380, to be a bit snappier. But I also noticed something else. The Pro 05 is not a Long 5 structure, it is Long 5x structure. The carbon is closer to the surface. So I'm very disappointed by that. I may return this blade...
  19. How do you grip your blade?

    I grip with my thumb higher on the rubber and my index finger higher on the rubber. I feel it gives more spin and control and responsiveness
  20. $12 Fake Tenergy Review

    After a couple days and 2 layers of seamoon, I glued the fake Tenergy 05 onto a blade opposite boosted Target 90. Tenergy has got a nice little rebound now, clearly a step bouncier than the boosted Target 90. Hopefully this also fixed the throw angle and it plays nice now. Will test it out...
