Penholder, setup: Forehand: Victas 401, 2.0mm Blade: Nittaku Hino 5.22 Backhand: Tenergy 19

I'm gonna get this and put a Victas 401 on it

Do you know the blade specific name?

The only thing I know is that an old lady brought it in a while ago (I think from the 90s or 80s?), the brand is hunter. From what I know, it is all wood.

Would it be OK if I added something slow like the DHS skyline series

Butterfly CN7-J (discontinued)

Decided not to go along with it, switched temporarily to CPEN for other reasons

OK sounds good. thanks for responses

Sounds good, thats the most common ones iv seen recommended. Is there any chinese pips or any other options cheaper? Thanks.

I've been using RPB on my Armstrong APEX 21, which has an black area on the back that is straight rather than curved (unlike standard JPEN). I put tape on top as a layer since the black part is slippery (glue wont stick as well and has air pockets). . How can I stick my RPB rubber (Dignics 05)...

Context: My brother is a chopper who uses the Yinhe Neptune 0.7mm on a sword 309 (All/Def), ad DHS H8 After trying Butterfly Feint Soft (25deg sponge and fairly grippy), it seems it was able to produce and vary more spin, with an "OK amount of reversal" as well. Are there cheaper...

Nah its more for a preventative/last resort thing. Like how when Ma Lin's footwork gets tested with strong angles and he cannot loop the next shot, he will just use his back (RPB side) to chop once and recover his footwork.

I've seen a lot of people recommend me add a sheet of LP OX or inverted on my backhand side of my racket. Ive heard a lot of people try inverted; however, even the cut weight is quite heavy, uncomfortable and almost unplayable. This is basically my racket: 1. Do I need to shave the black area...

Since JPEN backhand is considerably weaker than the FH, are flicks really a good option for BH side? I've found these on youtube:

This is my first JPEN blade and I've been using CPEN the rest of the time iv played before this. I'd say its quite hard. I'd assume its quite a bit harder since its compress from 10 to 8.7mm. The speed is absurd but I'm not sure if its my tenergy 05. Even on punch shots its very fast.

I just bought my Armstrong APEX 21 blade and added a tenergy 05 and its working OK. Which JPEN players should I watch for someone to imitate/rolemodel? Off the top of my head I know Ryu, Kim Taek Soo, Lee Jung Woo, Chiang Peng Lung, Lee Cheol Seung, Wang Jian Jun (~2006 era), Lu Lin (only found...

That make sense. Ig they can't control how the wood grows really.

Thanks for your comment. So is it kind of a luck of the draw with cheaper blades since they don't specifically have quality control? And if I get a "bad batch" will it still be playable to a reasonable degree?

Is the Xiom Power Hinoki OR Tmount KTS Tigersword better? Theyre both 10.5mm

Thanks for your note. Definitely won't be using S1 then. I'm also considering Goldarc 9, though I'm unsure
