  1. Glueing

    My experience with the no15 glue is a bit different. If I put 2 layers on my H3 and 1 on the blade, when I peel it off it almost always left holes of dry glue on the sponge. The glue layer just breaks easily. So I had to put 4-5 layers to be sure.
  2. Dang Qiu

    Been a penholder for about 4 years. Now playing shakehand. Penholders play like shakehand anyway. There’s little distinction between the two styles.
  3. Custom racket - Advice

    Is Primorac too flexible and soft for a beginner in the plastic ball era?
  4. Custom racket - Advice

    If this is your first custom racket it might be way too bouncy for you. In the long run Viscaria will give you room for development. Perhaps start with Viscaria and slower rubbers such as FH Donic Baracuda and BH Tibhar Nimus?
  5. Its my turn to be in dilemma

    Looping in full swing is such a good feeling. I also love the loud hitting sound!!
  6. Does boost tacky rubber will have benefits for me?

    I have played all variants of H3, Skyline 2 and Skyline 3. Among the 3, Skyline 2 has the shortest and widest pimples. Skyline 3 has the longest and thinnest. It means Skyline 2 & 3 has the hardest and softest topsheet respectively. H3 sits in between. Hardness of your rubber is the...
  7. H3 Neo National/Provincial/Commercial Differences

    Been a H3 user for many years. The new batches of provincial and national H3 are less tacky, and the grip on the topsheet wears off more quickly. I plays once a week. The ball will skid on my H3 in about 3 months. My old H3 used to last twice longer.
  8. Why single-ply hinoki not popular in plastic ball era

    Single ply hinoki Jpen is very versatile. But in general Jpen favours a speed game. That’s why my 10yo Darker SP90 pairs extremely well with porous Japanese rubber such as T05. You want to pair with Japanese rubbers because Jpen is made for deadly 3rd ball attack and mid distance rally...

    Only RSM can engage that hardness [emoji23]

  11. Its my turn to be in dilemma

    In a smashing situation, if you have the time to perform a powerful smash, TG2 is extremely fast due to its high top speed. Actually, TG2 is perfect for turning a lob into a very short drop shot. It’s very very lethal. See below (from 4:27) https://youtu.be/OjtLCTcTTrs
  12. Its my turn to be in dilemma

    My experience is that TG2 has higher QC than H3. 10 out of 10 commercial TG2 sheets are equally very tacky. My new provincial H3 sheets are of poor quality. Some stay tacky for long, some stay tacky for short time
  13. Its my turn to be in dilemma

    I’ve literally played every single version of H3, TG3 and TG2. Be aware the provincial TG2 blue sponge is non-Neo. So it needs at least two layers of booster. The pimple structure dictates the characteristics of H3, TG3 and TG2. TG3 has the longest and thinnest pimples. TG2 has the...
  14. Why single-ply hinoki not popular in plastic ball era

    I’ve tried 37-40 degree H3 on my Darker 90. My feeling is that 37 degree can be fast enough but give you lots of good feel. 39-40 degree really kills the good feel of hinoki.
  15. Why single-ply hinoki not popular in plastic ball era

    Thick single ply hinoki is not good for looping. It has little flex. What it produces is a strong FORWARD kick due to the hinoki wood.
  16. Why single-ply hinoki not popular in plastic ball era

    My experience tells me that Jpen offers a firmer grip than cpen. Make sure your friend never change to cpen [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

  19. Dwindling number

    In my city of 150000 population we used to have a business competition. We had about 10 teams enrolled. There was definitely some interest out there in the working class. I was actually asked to teach a PE department because the teachers wanted to enrol in that competition. But that program is...
