If you keep the rubbers especially H3N than I would suggest to get a Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive or Avalox P500/Xiom Fuga. Going from YSE to YEO before switching to outer carbon was what I did a couple years back. Imo all-wood blades with spruce below the outer ply and a thick ayous core work...

Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive (more like Off close to the table when >= 90g) Cornilleau Hinotec Off- (hinoki, limba, ayous, limba, hinoki, nice blade if one likes hinoki) Avalox P500 or BT555 Donic Persson Powerplay (somewhat between 5-ply blades and 7-ply blades, 5 wood + 2 layers of thin...

Not 4x but Korbel made in Japan costs 84.90€ in Germany vs 44.90€ for the Korbel made in the EU. In Japan the official price is 6050 Yen incl. VAT or around 37.02€ for the Korbel Japan. Outerforce ALC 109.90€ (16500 Yen or 101.46€ in Japan) vs. Viscaria 169.90€ (22000 Yen or 135.28€ in Japan)...

If it's only the short game and everything else is perfect than just practice short game with the Dynasty Carbon. Loki CNF = Loki Telson CNF or Rxton 9 with basalt and CNF? Telson CNF feels very woody. Very nice for the short game, receives and slow loops but speeds up considerably on full...

Or spend less time and money and support some of the excellent blade builders like @Wakkibatty and @hipnotic https://www.wakkibat.com/home https://www.sdcttblades.com What could also work is to stick a coin or some other convenient weight to the end of the handle i.e. what some did before...

Maybe he was using the outer version with dark handles ;) Would have been nice if Loki had used a similar dark design for that blade too.

Everyone I know who is using Butterfly or DHS rubbersin some (our) venue(s) swears a lot when humidity is high... Problem with all (these) rubbers is that one has to make a more solid contact in these conditions to grip the ball well enough. I.e.: footwork/technique and how well one can...

Glue. I usually do not seal my blades and the factory sealing that some blades have usually vanishes after a couple of gluing/sanding rounds.

When I got mine from Playa PingPong Store in late 2020 they were already sealed... With other koto outer ply blades like Falcima, 729 Blue Arylate or Persson Powerplay I never had issues with splintering but I always smooth the surface with 400 or 600 grit sandpaper and use (most of the time)...

R9 boosted: Speed faster than boosted H3 Throw higher than boosted H3 R7 boosted: Speed ? Throw ? How are the topsheets compared to H3? Softer, harder, similar? If the R7 is also faster or at least as fast as boosted H3 37 with similar or higher throw than I would definitely give it a try...
