I was just checking if there are more variants of DHS Power G7, than I already know (PG7S - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002820584558.html), and I found these:

PG7H - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005875572860.html
Top plies are probably Hinoki, third ply could be either baked or just painted Ayous.

PG7X - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005907907811.html
This one is very interesting - the product images are not good enough to guess 100% sure, but most probably, it has Koto top plies, then there is again that colour of ply which can be either baked or painted Ayous - and then the third layer is a composite layer of unknown type.

I do hope though, that the price of PG7X won't stay this much.

After playing with LAC a little bit here and there i can see why and how people like it.


Its got good Spin but not super Great Spin like H3.
I found not too fast, just like normal Chinese rubber.
Control obviously Great.
Arc almost like H3, a little bit higher i thought.
Pretty similar to my experience with H3 BS
And for the price pretty good Performance.

But maybe i am biased because of my Main combination.

Back to DHS:


Dynasty Carbon with Nittaku H3 Turbo blue.
That thing is a monster.
I can send unreturnable rockets.
The Spin is unmatched.
Throw Angle really low.
Very hard and really powerful.
I can Block every thing, I can even chop topspin.

A little heavy but not too much.

DHS Chinese Greatness +
Nittaku Japanese Greatness+
Xu Xins swedish blade
=
Probably my Main setup forever.

If I dont stumble upon a W968 with Ma long H3 my opinion will unlikely change.

That's why I am tempted to try LAC but still I am sticking with my hurricane. Buying in bulk, my hurricane is $18-$19 a piece. If LAC drops its price to $15, maybe I will try it. Otherwise, just sticking with hurricane commercial

Yep, there is simply nothing that LAC can do that one cannot also do with commercial H3

yes but I think the power to use LAC without tuning is beneficial to commercial H3

 

[Emin]

@longle i know youre playing Penhold but I would encourage you to try The Turbo Blue,
no boost needed, long lasting and obviously high quality,
im also curious what u would think about it,
it requires some power but is really rewarding

its on sale on tt11 right now

So far I haven’t tried anything from DHS but would like to join the club 😉

Ps. Along with DHS #15 I received white sponges for glue distribution but there are few black ones (see top of the bottle). What is it? 🤔

Since about 2 weeks I play with the Double Fish Volant Phoenix H40 on the FH, and it has everything I need. I've found my holy grail.

So, see you in 2025, @Zwill and DHS fans.

Does it require boosting?

 

[harty]

BTW. thank you for the prompt delivery!

You're welcome! That goes without saying!

 

[latej]

Does it require boosting?

Yes, it's a typical dense sponge, with all what comes with it. However, I've put only 1 thin layer to make it straight, and it's OK for me.

If I wanted bouncier, I'd try DF Polestar. But since I didn't yet, take this recommendation with the usual grain of salt.

 

[Zwill]

I will go to HK in two weeks so I might be able to pick up the Polestar-P and I see there is a 35deg pored sponge version of the Volant Phoenix. Both are available in the Slovak shop too.

Did you use FTL or Seamoon?

I also received those black sponges back in the day but I still have them. It's also for spreading the glue, I tried and I didn't like so only used the white fluffy sponge.

Yes, that's the DFVP2. I prefer bouncier on the BH nowadays, but if I searched for H3 H37 alternative, that's what I'd go for.

Did you use FTL or Seamoon?

A mixture of the rests of the both, but good 80% of it is Seamoon. Now I've added some expired Vietnamese menthol oil in there, for the flavor.

Good luck in HK.

Great, I will give it a lick of Seamoon too, for me it felt pretty good out of the pack just nothing major but maybe the booster helps it.
I didn't boost it since the 39 deg felt soft, but some rubbers get more "inflated" from booster. Like G-1 for me without a layer of FTL is pretty meh, but that single layer of FTL makes it bit harder and like I said more inflated. Just like the difference between a rubber ball if it's low on air or pumped up.

I assumed the black sponges were for removing glue residue from the blade

 

[longle]

Anyone tried G666? my favorite rubber in 2018, craziest spin rubber (I did not boost it although it looks boosted on the blade)

Ages ago I used to play with G888. But I have no idea what the difference between G666, G888, and H3 are.
