  1. FZD switches from alc to salc

    I think you missed the intent of being ironic ;)
  2. FZD is back, not in shape but . . .

    Not a a very sharp picture, but I see the purple sponge. It could be Bugller though! :ROFLMAO:
  3. FZD is back, not in shape but . . .

    He beats the world nr 1 but not in shape? :) I think both players made many unforced errors in the first two sets, but after that it looked the same as before and during olympics to me.
  4. New Stiga Cybershape Aura (!?)

    The look of these new blades do not really appeal to me. They do not look like Stiga. Pastel colors :sick: ... The Inspira Surge looked quite good, but wavy and aura .......
  5. Which blade?

    Some of the best players in my club, playing in high league divisions in Sweden play with all wood blades. I.e: Stiga Clipper Wood Stiga Cybershape Wood Butterfly Petr Korbel Yassaka Sweden Extra To me the difference compared with inner carbon blades is not that big. Maybe a bit more flex in...
  6. DNA Hybrid vs Dignics 09C vs Hybrid K3?

    I can only compare DNA Hybrid H and D09C. DNA plays more like a regular tensor. It is faster and easier to flat hit and block. So to summarize: DNA + Flat hitting and blocking + Quite a lot faster(more catapult) unless you use a lot of force then D09C is just as fast D09C + Easier to flick +...
  7. Victas Hino-Carbon Power

    Koki Niwa wood handle and hino-carbon are quite different. At least the ST. Koki Niwa wood is bit square, kind of similar to Butterfly TBS. Hino-carbon is thin and rounded.
  8. Sponge hardness is not the end of story...

    I have a team mate who plays really nice controlled high arc, high spin loops with both fh and bh with T25FX. He barely ever flat hits. So I believe it can be used quite well for a classic playing style as well (even though maybe the other Tenergies are more optimal for this!?).
  9. Did Lin Gaoyuan get sponsored by a new brand? His backhand rubber has purple sponge

    Maybe he started playing short pips and is trying out the new Bugller from Butterfly. :) Bugller is purple sponged.
  10. Best alternatives to Dignics 09C?

    Stiga Dragongrip is quite similar
  11. Need help choosing first short pips

    I now have Spectol S3 1.6mm on Harimoto ALC. Chopping from mid/long distance is possible, but not ideal. Blocking is very stable and better speed. I used Spectol S1 1.6mm on a TB Spirit before. Blocking was very easy, however the pace was quite slow. Chopping had not that much spin reversal and...
  12. Need help choosing first short pips

    I agree Spectol S1 fits the description. I used S1(1.6mm) before on outer ALC blade. For me the setup was a little bit too slow for blocking and not good enough for chopping. I have now switched to Spectol S3(1.6mm) on an inner ALC blade and blocking has really improved and chopping ability is...
  13. Is super zlc too fast for me?

    https://www.butterfly-global.com/en/story/mizutani_20th/ check 2014-2015. Here is a part of when JM switches back and forth between the blades. The reasoning for the change is a bit vaguely described as that he needs more control now since the playing conditions are so different at different...
  14. Feedback on my League games

    Don't be too hard on yourself! :) I think you play really well. Nice technique and sprin on 3rd ball attack, especially BH. You also chose the right ball to attack on. If I was to point out an area where improvements can be made, then it would be your defence. When you do not get to attack your...
  15. Rakza 7 vs Butterfly Rozena (BH)

    For me Rakes 7 feels quite much harder though. Rozena has very soft sponge. OP wants something harder, but then also mentions disliking too much catapult effect, so maybe it is more the boncieness and not so much the actual sponge hardness that is the issue. I would say go with Rozena, it is a...
  16. Is super zlc too fast for me?

    Jun Mizutani is one examples. He played with SZLC for a while and then went back to regular ZLC. You can even read about that on Butterfly's webpage.
  17. Victas Koki niwa wood Conc vs Korbel sk7

    I have tried the Koki Niwa wood and liked it a lot. Super good feeling. I found it quite fast, but not as fast as typical outer ALC blades(I.e. Viscaria). Unfortunately I have not tried the Korbel SK7, so I cannot compare.
  18. Is super zlc too fast for me?

    Source: WTT broadcasts... Well, most pro's play with slower blades, which means they consider themselves performing better with a slower blade. Therefore I assume Creek means, most probably 99% of us amateurs would perform better with blades that are slower than the ones with SZLC. That doesn't...
  19. Victas VS > 401

    Totally different rubber than T05 and D05. Much, much slower. It doesn't mean it will not work for you, but you have be prepared for something much, much slower.
  20. Harimoto Innerforce Super ALC

    I do not think it has been available for a month. It was revealed, but not available in store until recently I believe.
