    When you stored your racket in the attic, was it inside a bag or with film protectors, or by itself, in other words was the rubbers exposed or contained/covered?

  3. Which ESN (or Jap) rubber is closest to H3 orange provincial (non NEO)?

    In my experience: 1) Xiom Vega China as already suggested 2) Yasaka Rakza Z 1) is available only in Max, so it's quite heavy, but it's relatively inexpensive 2) is available in Max and 2.0, if you want to save on weight. Both are surprisingly very sticky but they play more like a boosted H3 (to...

  8. DHS Hurricane 8-80 review: A great hybrid backhand rubber

    It might be worth for you to also test Xiom Vega Europe H, 45 degrees of hardness and it's H-touch, not C-touch, so it's slightly tacky. I did like it on BH, it needs a fast-ish blade because it's not really fast, but flicks, under spin opening and serving are great with this rubber.

  14. Most consistent BH rubber for opening up the game

    The BH rubber that made super easy to open down spin game for me has to be DHS Hurricane 3-50 especially the soft version, 35 degree. I could open even from low positions and also flicks were easy. Unfortunately it's also very very slow. I think it's useful to practice openings but because they...
  15. H3 alternative

    In my experience the German rubber that plays the closest to H3 is Xiom Vega China, you don’t need to boost. Quite heavy though.

    Funny I've got exactly the same shoes he's wearing in that video. And I think I know why he chose them: long feet (they were available up to 48 EUR) :)
  17. Xiom Vega China VM Review

    Coincidence I'm playing with Xiom Vega China on my FH and Sieger PK50 for my BH. They are very different: Vega China is pretty hard, I measured 50 Shore O with my durometer from the top-sheet side, while Sieger PK50 measured 43-44 (that's why I use it for BH). As said by others Xiom Vega China...
