Chinese manufacturers offer completely different rubbers—ones with a unique vibe that makes them valued. For high-speed rubbers it is better to choose Japanese or German manufacturers.

And what is happening in China? Is there such a ranking?

Yes. If there are hollows in the handles, the palm feels a vibration when hitting the ball. If there are no hollows, the feeling is more solid (more dampened). By the way, as for the Viscaria, the entire feeling goes from the blade head to the index finger, and in my opinion, hollows there would...

Hollow handles can be found in most brands. However, I’ve seen variations in the hollow volume even within the same blade model from Yinhe. In one blade, the hollows were both in the ply and the handle halves; in another, they were only in the halves; and in a third one, the hollows in the...

The cavity in the handle makes it lighter, shifting the balance more toward the blade. Additionally, when the ball hits, acoustic vibrations are generated inside this cavity, which can be felt in the palm. Some people like this, while others don't. For example, I personally like these...

I was repairing a well-worn Butterfly Timo Boll Spirit blade. This blade features a very interesting koto top ply. Firstly, it has an unusually dark color; secondly, it displays a beautiful coarse "fish-scale" pattern; and thirdly, it is extremely hard. While koto on new blades tends to cut and...

Hi, @Dan! Have you already felt the difference in the game with opponent?

War has already changed. The next war at sea will not be a battle of aircraft carriers. Our country, having no fleet at all, has sunk most of the ships of the Black Sea Fleet, including the flagship of the fleet - the missile cruiser "Moscow".

Once, @Zwill wrote about an air box, where rubbers are boosted by air pressure greater than atmospheric. What if this box was pumped not with simple air, but with a mixture of terpenes?

It's interesting. I was wondering why recently in the ads of our local sellers of new Butterfly rubbers imported from Japan, there have been so few D09Cs and its price has become higher. Conditionally, out of 4 ads, only one has D09C.

It looks really great! I wonder why they don't finish the edges of the blade and the end of the handle at the factory? Also I wonder how soft the walnut used by Nittaku is, because the walnut we use for the surface, is more similar to koto in terms of its technical and playing characteristics.

He ignored it again, instead, he threw a piece of another forum. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

The thing is that when gluing the handles, a slippery layer of glue is formed and the handle "floats" when clamped. To solve this issue, for example, Nexy made two centering holes in the handles and the canvas. As far as I understand and saw from the videos, other manufacturers use special...

The blade will bend differently on one side and the other, and a sensitive player will feel it.

It's very interesting what he will write now.

@Matt Hetherington , his job is to get emotions out of you. He's just a AI troll. And by the way, I've said this many times and he doesn't deny it, he just ignores it. I wonder, will he ignore it again this time, or will he write something? An ordinary person cannot spend so much time and...

I didn't want to measure anything and post it here. Just a routine repair of a new! DHS Long 5 blade on the surface. But I decided to measure the dimensions anyway and it turned out that the size of the blade is different on both sides. On one side - 159x150 mm, as it should be, and on the other...

If anyone thinks that calling the best player of our time a "Little Fatty" is an insult to that player, then I'll disappoint you. It's an insult to the person who says that.

Hi, Marvin! Today I will just reduce the blade head for my friend and if I don’t forget, I will write back on reducing the blade weight, balance and increasing the frequency. But in fact, the weight and balance of the racket as a whole will decrease more due to the reduction in the weight of the...
