Decent level of play but why do you expect W968 + H3 to perform well if you only slightly brush the ball? Both these blade and rubber require strong forward motion and body strength, while you play like it's Viscaria + T05.
Plus, you also tend to put the ball with a high arc closer to the edge, which is naturally (at least for H3) the least spinnable variant of the ball.
Right, I think he's brushing a bit too much. W968 + H3 is made for very thick contact. The W968 naturally creates an arc when you're hitting the ball. That's the biggest adjustment I need to make when I switch between the W968 and the Vis. Hitting too much into the blade with the Vis will result in too flat of an arc, while brushing too much with the W968 makes too high of an arc. He's got good technique, I think with a bit more experimentation with a thicker contact using a more forward and less upward motion and he'll be able to appreciate the difference a lot more.

It's this blade quality (the ball trajectory goes long, check out Table Tennis Gan review - he said so as well, and he is much highel level than me...) and I said that I was testing this for the first time. Prov. H3 BS did very well on this blade.

edit: will -> well
I think you're missing the point: you need a vastly different technique to play with W968 + H3N. There is a ton of other equipment that suits brushing topspins better.

There is nothing wrong with brushing the ball--in fact, it can be very effective and strong. But W968 + H3N require you to smack the ball to open the equipment's potential, otherwise you only utilize a small portion of its power.
