Depends on why H3 isn't suitable. Sometimes it's because H3 is too sensitive to spin, then a less spinny (usually less sensitive to spin) rubber would be better. Sometimes it's because H3 is too hard so you need a (too) big swing to get power out of it, then actually a bouncier rubber with more...

When you do powerloops then other plies also get involved so a bit harder to conclude.

Funny you mention H3, for me it's a rubber that many people shouldn't use yet or it isn't the best fit for them but they useit because the Chinese National Team uses it, like composite blades.

I think the TT11 guys generally prefer a more controllable rubber over a really powerful rubber. If my memory serves me correctly there is another review where most testers prefer tibhar aurus over MXP.

Viscaria also has the clout of Zhang Jike, Fan Zhendong and many others :) To be fair that's the same for all top-end blades that I can think of, except some super-pricey single ply Hinoki Japanese penhold blades.

Donic Elite carbon has abachi (ayous?) core but inner aramid carbon fleece BTW.

Donic Original True Carbon Inner has innerforce structure but with Kiri core, so probably not what you want. Is there a reason to stick with Tibhar/Donic? If it's because of sponsor reasons you could ask your sponsors what would be the best candidates and ask them to give you a sample to try out?

They are all harder than Limba so you'd feel less dwell on soft touches generally speaking.

They are not ITTF approved, might as well get something from Palio, Yinhe, 729 etc. if you are going to participate in any kind of competition to avoid hassles.

Most new blades with similar construction to W968/HL5 or Viscaria/XYZ-ALC struggle to really stand out. Brands like Tibhar, Joola etc. wouldn't make cheap ``clones'' like Yinhe or Stour, and they couldn't make a blade that is clearly superior to those popular blades (rarely anyone can, it's...

Handicap tournaments in my local league is like this: 1. Each game is first to 31 points (biggest handicap is ~20. Best player could be ~-10) 2. If the sum of handicaps of both players is above 31, then play best of 5. If the sum of handicaps is 5 or below, it's best of 1. Otherwise best of 3...

Wang Hao retired before 40+. Composite blades are certainly more and more popular nowadays. There are reasons why most professional players use composite blades. Whether amateur players should follow that is another matter. Also it isn't very convincing coming from you when you are using...

Handicap + best of 7 is ridiculous...

Just email online shops that sell this blade to send you photos of their stocks and the weights? I know you can specify blade weights for table tennis 11, not sure about the fish scale.

Have you tried Moon speed 53?

Outside top 30? Simon Gauzy - currently 31 :D or Mattias Falck (35) because of the short pimples.

I started playing with T-11S last week and it feels very good for me. I'm also looking forward to your reviews on 970XX K and Pro-01. Are you planning to test these blades with Yinhe rubbers or just any?

What's your actual rating? If you can compete with 2100 player, and the opponent you played in the 2nd video can win 1 game out of every 6 game against you, he's probably 1700 which I have a hard time to believe...could be the effect of the camera though. The result could be deceptive though...

I think Aibiss is discontinued. It's apparently the worst non-Chinese tacky rubber ever made. I've seen it on sale on several Chinese online shop, which is unusual for Butterfly. Spin should also be two dimensional. The spin you get from serving is rarely the same as the spin you get from...
