I hate how my lighter color blade handles always discolor with use due to sweat and dirt. My W968 handle has gone from a nice light blue to a dirty blue. I know some people have posted saying using lemon oil or Watco's oil. I've tried these things but they don't really work for me.
No worries. I wouldn’t say it’s better, it’s just different. I prefer crisp blades because it gives me a sharp feedback. ALC feels slightly more dull to me. Just all preference.
From what I’ve read online, it’s pretty regarded that the MJ-ZLC is an easy to handle blade that intermediates can use.
Well I like to experiment a lot. The MJ ZLC is much more crisp and easy to use compared to W968. The ZLC layer being on the outer layer makes the carbon engage earlier but the limba top verneer gives enough dwell. The MJ-ZLC plays similarly to an outer koto ALC blade but slightly more crisp...
Does anyone here serve with their BH rubber and then twiddle? Thinking about doing this because the BH rubber is generally softer and easier to engage.
Currently using T05H on my MJ-ZLC and having this same debate myself. The T05H feels great but wondering if I might get more spin potential from the D80.
Thinking of either doing:
FH: D09c, BH: D80
FH: T05H, BH: D80
FH: D80, BH: D80
I actually just switched to this blade recently. I'm currently using T05H 1.9mm on both sides and it's been one of the best setups for me. The hard rubber synergizes with the soft limba top layer so the short game is easy to control and then far away from the table, you can hit past the limba...
How does Dignics 80 compare to tenergy 05H? Currently using T05H on my MJ ZLC and it feels great, very controlled and crisp. Then I saw that MJ used to use D80 on both sides so wondering how the two rubbers compare.
I understand that Dignics 80 is supposed to be the Dignics version of T05 and...
Nittaku Gyo-en. That blade has such a bad vibration that it's unplayable for me. I've tried it with multiple rubbers and have experienced that same thing.
For me, I really like the design of the MJ ZLC, so elegant and symmetrical with awesome looking symbol.
Honorable mentions:
Xiom TMXi Pro - I just love the red design of this as well
Nittaku Gyo-en and So-ten - beautiful blades, don’t like the way they play
Joola ZQH - love this shade of purple
Ideally I would have gotten all red ones because I like having D09C on my BH while using H3N BS on FH. Guess I'll have to switch to H3N OS for a while.
Gotta support my EJ bug, it ain't cheap. Finding cost-saving measures wherever I can.
I could take off rubbers and keep gluing them but sometimes I'm just too lazy to do that.
