H3N (+ some Haifu Seamoon ;)) or the quite similar Battle 3 with a higher base speed. H3s are nowadays quite less tacky then they were a couple of years ago and the B3 is also less tacky than the B2. Battle 2 and Sanwei Target have a too low throw for me. A bit more hybrid like: 729 Dragon F...

H3 37 (at least when boosted) works well on 5-ply all-wood blades if these are stiff and fast enough e.g. Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive (played this with H3 37 on BH for quite a while) but also other thicker/stiffer 5-ply blades work well. If playing further away from the table these 5-ply...

Donic Baum Esprit and Skachkov Carbon, 160 mm x 152 mm, Viscaria structure.

It is quite popular and definitely a good blade but it also has a very unique construction https://ttgearlab.com/2017/02/11/review-tibhar-e-lebesson/ I would ask https://www.sdcttblades.com/ / https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/sdc-handmade-blades.19018/page-73 to build something...

Haven't seen that much variation with my H3s. Only a too soft H8-80. 729 Battle 3 has very good quality and is closer to H3 than B2. For an all Yasaka setup you could try Rakza Z (~50° ESN / 38.5° Shore A same as the Rising Dragon) or Rakza Z Extra Hard (~55° ESN / 41° Shore A) but at least the...

I've not experienced this with Finezip but have seen something similar recently with Free Chack and Free Chack Pro. Especially that the glue remains both on sponge and blade and not in one piece on the sponge as usual. Also had issues removing the glue from the sponge and a couple of times that...

H8-80 does not need boosting but I've seen some quality issues (two had 37° but the third one was maybe just 35° and much lighter)... B2 or H3 vs. Dignics 09C: D09C is faster, more catapulty on low power strokes than B2, B3 or H3 and has a way higher throw angle. From memory: I didn't like...

Exactly: When I sand the blade face until it's completely smooth (neither my fingers feel something nor swiping with some cloth should reveal some tiny splinters etc.) then I usually don't see splintering or just some negligible splintering when removing rubbers. Some blades might still splinter...

Splintering: Did you sand your 729 Blue Arylate? I do this with all blades using 400 grit sandpaper and had no issues. Thickness: Yes, 729 BA is around 6 mm. Don't have calipers but they are as thick as the nominally 6 mm YEO and Victas Swat I have here. Agree with not to hard Chinese rubbers...

I could only briefly test a G09C on a TB ALC (can't remember exactly, at least something Viscaria-like from Butterfly) vs. H3N on my Yinhe V14Pro but I would not say that the G09C is as slow as a (boosted) H3N. On low(er) power strokes that G09C was faster than my H3N. Can't say how fast it...

729 Dragon F could also work. Medium-hard 38° - 39° DHS/Shore-A, medium-soft 37° - 38° DHS/Shore-A but it might be that the early ones were simply not factory boosted (729 didn't factory boost the first batch/batches of Battle 3...

H3 won't let you go once you have adapted to it ;) I tried some Battle 2 (but not a version with a blue sponge), some hybrids like Rakza Z, Codexx EL Pro 52 or Victas Triple Extra and also some Sanwei Targets but I always returned to H3. Currently - for me - Battle 3 (boosted) is the...

DragonGrip = 55°, Hybrid XH = 52.5°, Hybrid H = 50°, Hybrid M = 47.5° If we believe the numbers from Stiga then the spin capability is more or less the same but the Hybrids are faster.
