I am puzzled as hell. DHS has ditched their long-term lovers. The only ones that are still tacky are 729 and TDE

Just use VOC glue if you're not playing official tournaments. Far cheaper per ml, less sponge wastage, dry more quickly and better adhesion.

I used a few Nittaku H3 Pro blue. I used to like it as Nittaku used the high quality tacky H3 topsheet. But the latest batch I bought in 2022 used the new non-tacky H3 topsheet - less grippy, less spin, much longer trajectory and less control. It is even less grippy than my D09C

This setup will be able to do anything - from defence to offence.

The surface doesn't show a stretched topsheet. I don't think it has been boosted, or underboosted. What is the hardness of the bs?

Congratulations for the effort 👍👍

For the tenergy sponge, it will be good for Bh

It is very unfair. Although only few, less than 20% of our club members play tacky rubbers, it caused a lot of confusion. For example, people buying the normal H3N sheet (the one with black 3), expect a tacky sheet. But the switch of formula happened to some of the old packaging. So it’s a...

To increase speed. If you look at the H3 CNT uses, they have a matte look.

This is the first TG2 being non tacky. Stocks sold in China tend to have a very high turnover so I would say this sheet is among the first new non tacky TG2 topsheet. Bear in mind this is the expensive blue sponge TG2 so we can rule out QC issue.

Agree. It’s still grippy. But my technique has been trained with really tacky rubbers over many many years I will keep using tacky rubber.

I've played with DHS rubbers all my life. For many years, H3 had been my favourite until DHS took the tack off H3. H3 with even less tack than D09C, hardly grip the ball and has poor control. For the love of Xu Xin and tackiness, I switched to TG2 (or Skyline 2) for its supreme control and...

Thanks for your interest. The head size is 150mm x 158mm.

Try 729 Bloom series. $11USD each. Very tacky and spinny. Not fast with great control.

Every nice rubber seems to aim for the Dignics price!!

G1 is more well rounded, many use it on FH. P1 is good enough. I used to play D64 on BH, compared to P1, D64 can generate spin more easily. Nonetheless, P1 is spinny enough on BH.

G1 and P1 are very durable. I find P1 very good for bh as it’s less sensitive to incoming spin

I prefer softer touch, so I prefer 5X or W968. But Dynasty carbon is more balanced between fh and bh. Long 5x still comes short in bh

I have played with both. They have very different feel. Dynasty carbon - more responsive and faster with low impact due to the harder top ply. Long 5X - softer feel due to limba top ply. Would suit better short game and service.

Depends on your goal. Do you have a lot of time to train? Do you have a good coach? If so s1 is better. It’s extremely hard to attack with p1. But s1 is an attack monster
