2 months sounds very good compared to what I experience. I am waiting for 729 Battle II National (golden package) and Battle II gold (purple sponge) to arrive. I've used 729 B2 prov. blue sponge, but in my experience it can't be compared to DHS rubbers, unfortunately. Less spin and top spins...

penhold dreamer

Is it only for me or Haifu Seamoon really does last only for 1-2 days? When I boost (or reboost, it doesn't matter) with 1 layer of Haifu the effect on the first day is amazing. The second day is already meh, playable but already feels dead'ish. And on the third and later it's unplayable pretty...

May be he sanded it a bit like penholders do?

Wood is wood, you can't find two identical pieces. However, with proper quality control the difference between two blades might be much less, I think you mostly pay for that. That doesn't mean that cheap blades are bad, it means that the probability of getting a good one is less. I bought 5...

Great vlogs, thanks for posting!

Try working with a shovel using hands only and then using core&legs. Big difference. Table tennis teaches a lot, same as martial arts and other sports where kinetic chain is used.

Liu Guoliang played short pips on the forehand side, therefore his technique is less loop, more like a flat hit. Xu Xin needed to loop every ball on the forehand, therefore he needs a straight hand for more angular velocity. Straight arm is definitely more effective, more difficult to master...

Acoustic is a very flexy blade and it might not suite your style of flat drives and quick exchanges. Try out other people's equipment, may be you need something less flexible? I tried both Acoustic and Acoustic Carbon Inner and I think these are good blades, but may be a little outdated for...

Actually, I don't know exactly. There are local resellers here who can find anything 🤷‍♂️

So Stiga Intensity NCT V Xu Xin edition arrived much, much earlier than I expected. Ordered it from prott.vip, pretty good service this guy has. Shipped in time. Now I lack only YEO "wordless" version of all wood blades that Xu Xin and Ma Lin used. Currently playing with Rosewood 5 and pretty...

Such a beautiful blade. Honestly, tried Rosewood V (shakehand version, playing penhold grip) and fell in love and was waiting for CS version to arrive. I am not disappointed. It's a bit slower than modern carbon blades, but the feeling and control is just outstanding. Something even more...

Hurricane 3 was developed during speed glue era. T05 was developed around 2008? Doesn't matter really. The differences between rubbers exist, but it's not something that brings victories to players, especially regular players, not some top pros. Pick what feels good for you and stick with it...

hey, my bday is around New Year. Considering the delivery time it's going to happen around that time, but thanks anyway! 😄

YEO (CS). FH: Xiom Vega China VM, BH: D09c Stiga Rosewood 5 (FL). FH: TG2 Prov. blue, BH: 729 Battle II Prov. 39' w968 (FL). 729 Battle II Prov. both sides (40'+38') Stuor Harimoto SZLC copy (Stuor #20, CS). FH: Xiom Vega China VM, BH: H8 39'. & many more nakes blades and rubbers. These are...

there's no National TG2 AFAIK, there is only TG2 (regular commercial non-neo), TG2 NEO commercial, TG2 Provincial Blue sponge. I've tried TG2 NEO when it was tacky (older batches) and it was a good rubber. Currently playing with TG2 Prov BS on my penhold setup. It plays well on Stiga Rosewood...

Whatever that blade is 🤷‍♂️

Asked my friend randomly whether he has Stiga Rosewood NCT V and guess what ? He had it!!! Borrowed for a test for some brief time. There's like 1 more penhold player in my region and he plays worse than me, so no penhold blades can be found in 2000km range...so if I like that one I might order...

btw, what's with Chen Meng now?

So I see that you're using Q968 and H3's. Why use DHS then?
