it's covered with a special material that elongates the fermions inside the sponge when applying ~6kg of pressure, locally increasing the weak nuclear force to be on par with the strong nuclear force, but just in that specific vector space manifold. look up the AdS/CFT correspondence for more...

ok so in your view, buying bar of chocolate is not easy because it involves costs. at the same time time, you say you've made logical arguments. don't see any point engaging any further. you are correct in anything you said and will say.

did someone ask you to pay for claims i made? i sure didn't. i did propose a wagerlike agreement though: also, i guess you use a different definition of contradiction. my working definition is: a proposition, statement, or phrase that asserts or implies both the truth and falsity of something...

you ofc would control for those variables.

totally up for it if you are willing to pay for experimental costs if results support my claims. water/uv cycling(whenever you pass by a lumber yard, look out for stacks of wood that are soaking wet) is used as a standalone or as a precursor to kiln drying in dimensionally stable wood...

moisture and specifically water does sip into the blade and the handle, collecting experimental evidence about this is extremely easy. all true. didn't say that hinoki has high density, it is low on the janka scale(which measures hardness but wood hardness is highly correlated with wood...

in this context, the wood aging process involves exposing wood to cycles of water soaking and uv treatment or just leaving it out in the open uncovered but stacked such that it's well ventilated. this makes the surface of the wood harder and more dimensionally stable.

nice long explanation. i just would like to add that moisture does sip into blades and probably does change the "feeling". you can easily test this by dehydrating a blade that's seen at least 6-7 months of use. if you measure the weight of the blade before and after, you'll find 1-5 grams are...

yes, don't bother learning stuff, it's useless! just buy a lot of stuff and spend your time on tiktok! understanding the world is for nerds. are you a nerd?

totally! DIYers are the OG EJers. raw materials, prefabricates, tooling, r&d time, failed experiments. normie EJs got nothing on us dawg.

i get about 1.5 months worth of play with 2-3 sessions/week before the booster effect disappears. i'm fairly certain i can feel the effect decay after about 2 weeks but it's sure as hell not there anymore after 6.

although you ask a lot of questions, which is a good thing. you seem to ignore the answers you are presented with.

if it's not user input error than probably yes. but you obviously don't know if both blades had the same water content when measured, same ball, normally working mics, etc. whenever you use that spreadsheet to interpret the frequency response of a blade, take the mean of the measurements like...

a higher frequency response measured this way = stiffer blade which typically means, a faster blade. meaning ball has higher speed when struck with equal force compared with a blade with a lower frequency response. that said, higher Hz measured this way does not equate a faster blade, it's just...

all true. but still, bouncing the ball on the blade and recording the sound with a mic is a metric that correlates with the eventual paddle mechanical performance. it's not a useless metric, but it can mislead you if you don't understand what it means.

this conclusion is getting popular on this forum and imo it's correct. a bty blade is indeed more expensive to make because they had to pay for the r&d, but since tt blades are pretty simple products and the materials needed for manufacture are readily available, after it gets to market...

some of that variation is due to ppl not using the same measurement condition, but you can expect ~50Hz variation between same model blades even from premium manufacturers because wood is not(yet) made in a lab.

that's not true, mean of v14 is higher than pro 01.

also, please share the Hz measurements via https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tnzuhP98Iwl3_ZYIKs770Z4GeEXB1cPaF6xXC3IMLfg/edit?gid=0#gid=0
