I think you have to reach a certain level to notice that. For beginners all rubbers are the same because they don't know how to penetrate the sponge. Just 0.05mm difference can make the ball clear or hit the net in critical situations.

I get your point, I and many club players in my country wondered the same thing. If only they name the latest H3 to something like "H3 Power" it would clear all debates. And keep the super sticky ones as H3. But that would ruin the H3 brand name I guess, they want it to be the No1 rubber...

2.1mm, it gives you better feedback because easier to penetrating the blade

yes, the carbon layer looks a bit like Glassfiber, maybe an upgrade from King 3 ? If so I'm buyinggggg

I'm talking about H8-20, and 710s sponge in general, the supply for both H3-20 and H8-20 is hard to get since last month

the rubber seems to have very high demands at the moment so harder to get. It's basically a H3 pro with softer topsheet ideally for BH. My most favorite Chinese style BH rubber.

the #80 sponge is not strong enough if you do BH counter attack. I have played a lot of DHS rubbers and have to admit most of their sponges are.. mediocre, only some versions of H3 sponges are good (Recently they have this 710s sponge which is really, really good, but hard to buy. I am using the...

B2 prov blue was one of my most favorite FH rubbers, however it throw angle is low and is a bit stiff if not engaged enough. I switched to H3 pro blue for a higher throw, and some grams lighter

I don't think 8-80 even comes close to D09c, not even C55 I think Butterfly will suit Hugo better, if he makes the changes of equipment

what do you use for BH ? if it's bouncy maybe try a more controlled, slower rubber (like a Chinese tacky rubber, it holds the ball very well)

or DHS HUrricane GO

too bad because Xiom outfit looks very eye catching and no other sponsored Xiom players wear it as nice as he does

it will be named.. Dedicated Hugo's Sword

I forgot to say, I usually do hook serve to the short FH side of the opponent (if he is right hand) - 90% the opponents will return to my BH, the long hook serve to opponent's BH side will mostly be returned to midde/FH side

I think you can try to focus on the thumb - it plays a big role in blocking and RPB

there is this manga I read when I was a kid - I still remember the Buddha serve when the ball lands on the other side but doesn't bounce.. many hilarious anti-physics moves like the Prince of Tennis manga lol

why do I think this actor looks like Liam Pitchford

my video was a bit old but I think can answer your concern: For short: you have to choose a grip which strengthens your playstyle because changing grip in the middle of the rally is almost impossible. I suggest a neutral grip slightly prefer BH (curved 2 fingers, slightly deeper thumb) - which...

based on my own experience, I use hook serve (no spin/topspin) a lot and almost of the cases the return will be a long ball so there are many chances for opening loop. Lower level opponents usually push to BH with little spin - easy to BH loop, higher level opponents can flick the ball to FH...

I strongly recommend the hook serve, if you have a strong backhand then that serve will benefit the most.
