Yes an excellent value for money viscaria alternative :) I always say to people both koto/kiri or limba/ayous combinations work, just a matter of gear taste and playstyle.

Mine is the Lin Gaoyuan's general draws his sword, but then from Temu xD

I agree with this @mightymouse , I think that even though white ash is a very hard wood, since the plies are super thin, you don't feel it much. Also, white ash is very flexible, so that gives the blade a certain feel and forgiveness that I love combined with the kiri core :) Acoustic is...

At the risk of being unpopular here, but if you played with the ZLF and Viscaria with those rubbers, that's fast enough for intermediates in most cases. I think it's important to know where power comes from in TT, and it's not about gear but technique, check this out...

Oohhhh!! I see!! hahaha indeed lost in translation! thanks for clarifying!!

I see, with what rubbers did you try the viscaria or what rubbers are now on the ZLF?

Hey! Violin is my favourite blade of all times, I used it for almost 2 years and it's a fantastic intermediate blade you can use all the way until you need more power far from the table. It's made from white ash and kiri so very different from the typical limba/ayous blade like primorac. It...

I love my H3N BS on FH and 8-80 on backhand, if the basics of technique, footwork and overall condition are there, then it's great value for money :) In any case, what was not clear to me is if you have the Loki blade already or you want to change to it. It's not a slow blade, as an...

You could also argue that you 'nailed' your FH hahahaha

I know ;) It was a joke from the video the user posted above hahaha :D

Backhand is for the people with slow feet xD

Yep this is what you see nowadays in pros indeed, many are changing to pushing from right leg, but most people I know of and coach are still more comfortable with left to right in the majority of stroke situations

Most high players in our club have a euro/non-chinese FH stroke and it's fine so the answer is yes at the amateur level, for sure. Just be careful not to be too tense on the arm/shoulder, I see this often as people try to add more power, this leads to injuries in the medium/long term.

I like Revolution 3 for anything non boosted, and DHS 15 for boosted. If you don't seal the blade, DHS 15 clumps quickly, so you need to seal, or use R3 for the blade, I do that and it's fine. Others have said to moist the sponge or indeed add some water to it. It is said R3 has more catapult...

I see, much more structured than me, I go for the vibe glueing always haha

Yes with the old H3s, the commercial was still so tacky! One very good player in our club the same, he used it for 3+ years and still tacky after so long, but he didn't boost, quite a beast the guy :)

Always hard to explain without images / videos no worries :) I think I get it ;)

So here you refer to a more core-based motion from what I can understand? So probably more like anders lind explains or different @Takkyu_wa_inochi ? :) Yes chiquita has more weight on the dominant leg for me always, otherwise I don't get the right feel for it. By the way, the transfer I talk...

Not really but it has helped me focus my technique in let's say 80% of the standard situations :) Yes I agree here, sometimes footwork is not enough to get into the right position, plus as amateurs our footwork is not always topnotch, in this case it makes a lot of sense what you say here. And...

I missed this before, yes, I fully agree, writing an amateur guide now to H3N and this is my advice as well. Will have a look! Wich osmo oil product exactly? There are different variants :)
