Very good. I used my red medium hard sheet more on BH, nonstop since I got them in Aug and now I guess I have 200-250hours of use in it and it hasn't changed much for me. Sure it has marks on it, quite a few mostly from my fingers but I have not experienced any loss of grip. The sponge is as...

My absolute favorite setup for beginners, advanced or people struggling with injury or just prone to injury is Yinhe T11 blade with two sheets of 37deg Yinhe Big Dipper. The blade is very light, around 70g, it is very fast, but the rubbers are sticky chinese with a bit of a bounce. So this setup...

If someone wants a very thin and even application using an old debit card is pretty great. I used to do that when the water-based glues were introduced. Mainly I did it with Finezip.

I think Mantra Pro is the best bet if you can buy it from Taobao for 160-200RMB. That is in your budget, I guess Mantra Pro H would be a decent D05 and Mantra Pro XH would be a decent T05H replacement and the medium a good T05 replacement. (well I would probably say T19, D19 and T19H...

Yes, it's water-based.

You need to use a bit more glue and spread it fast with as few movements as possible. Especially I would start the first layer on the blade since the sponge you use to spread will suck up quite a bit of the glue. This is the biggest problem with DHS no15, it's a bit hard to use and maybe it is a...

The Tachyon is a lot softer and has a lot more wood feeling than ZQ S-ALC or a Viscaria even. If someone is looking for an all-wood feeling with carbon then it's perfect. My biggest problem with it is the varnish it has, my glues don't stick too well to it. I would probably need to use a German...

Compared to other VIS-ALC blades like BTY or Yinhe or South Korean the WMY feels much softer. But the core is more elastic so it kicks the ball more. It doesn't drop the ball like hard BTY blades. I think it's also more handle-heavy than most blades, which makes sense since the handle is more...

He mentioned this is the all-wood Xuperman blade, the APEX.

Well they speak English, if you know what you want you should be fine. If you don't know and start to do some phylosophical discussions about stuff I think you will have trouble 😅

Normally I would be skeptical too but in this case what is the gain for Stiga? They don't sell the blade internationally it's not even in their catalogue...

There's one in Wan Chai, I think it is called winner sports. They had a good variety of stuff.

I need to amend this as I was saying stuff that I now know are not the case. Like I said I don't get why the Cybershape was dropping the balls. I now know. It's not the wood, it's the rubber. The Mantra Pro sheet needs to oxidize for a few days to reach peak grip. I tried the Cybershape paddle...

One more thing I noticed since I glued 2 new sheets of Mantra Pro on a Cybershape. Like all rubbers, this also has some anti-stick material on the top so that during production the workers can remove it more easily from the mold. Kinda like how crepes and pancakes are easier to remove from...

In fact many amateurs use Battle 2 Double fish, Young shine etc etc H3 clones.

I tried the Volant-Phoenix and the Polestar-P and the Polestar-P is like a nicely boosted H3N OS, or more like a Dianchi D... I think the Polestar-P and Dianchi D have much harder and more elastic sponges than H3N even if they are rated for 39 or 40deg only, they feel very firm and elastic. And...

I was so into the Q Power after playing with the Q Quality until Stiga released the Mantra Pros. Now I'm like I know the difference between Q Quality and Mantra Pro M and I think Mantra Pro M is better, well I would say better in most situations on BH. Q Quality I would take over Mantra Pro M on...

I think it sticks well enough. It works pretty well with boosted H3 too.

Why not buy the Sawnei training ball? I don't know it that well, but usually they are manufactured the same way just being sorted. Round ones = 3 star, wobbly = training at least it would only make sense this way. Their training balls are available on Aliexpress 100pcs for about 25USD?

What is your match ball? Get the same kind in training ball. It's better to train with the same type of ball as you play matches with. Not much sense in using Nittaku training ball then playing with DHS match ball. If you don't play matches then I would get the Neottec-Nittaku ones.
