Hi Guys!

New Year, New Blade :)

So here we go again! I was watching the CTTSL game with Tianjin vs. Ningbo and I noticed that Ma Long has change his blade again! Definitely not the same handle as his DHS 506 PG3 prototype.

Hurricane Long 3, an advertisement in a TT magazine

It is now official! DHS has just announced the new Hurricane Long 3 coming this year. Same structure as Hurricane Long 2 so it is indeed another 7 ply wood blade. Besides the change of handle colour there is also modification on adhesive used.

Here is a screen shot of the bat:

Let's set the ball rolling.. :) Is that even a DHS? Yellow lettering on black background -> Viscaria? just like ZJK?

Could definately well be. Some tape is covering a blade of some kind :p

Why does he change his blade all the time? He did really well with the old one .... :(

Haha that is what I was thinking Tim, when you are one of the best players in the world, why would you change, Maybe he got bored. What ever blade it is, it seems to have worked as defeated he Hao Shuai 3-0. Give Ma Long any blade he will play amazing! :)

Yeah, but "only" 3-2 against Lei :D
We have to wait for the first World Tour but often I think the chinese players are not interested in CTTSL, always quit, no cho and the matches are often not very exciting

True! Perhaps he is just finding the right combination so he is ready for the upcoming 2013 World Championships!

A noteworthy point is what grip cool is blue and has yellow line.
Maybe it's hurricane hao series,but blade is white,so blade is different ruket.
Ma long's blade is always secret.
Viscaria is completely different.
Hurricane long 2 is more different(this grip is brown).

I want more clear pictures.

Only find this picture, but can't see his blade clearly..

Seems like a Hurricane Hao of some kind alright. In one of video matches I notice a black lense with chinese writing, so imo it is a DHS blade some kind. But as Christian stated is it his primary blade or just one he borrowed?

Absolutely that very well looks like a Hurricane Hao handle (blue and yellow), but when I was watching the video a couple of hours ago, I noticed red plies characteristic of the Clipper and PG7. So he may have customised it or had one made especially for him.

Could you please take a screen shot of that buddy? :)
