DHS ML X5 ... any good?

Hi all,

I want to ask, is DHS Hurricane Long X5 any good to have even for fun and not for competition or challenge?

Thanks!

I like. The blade long5x is more linear than long5. Blade to play through the rotation. With flat strokes, the ball flies away. To do this, I had to slightly change my technique. With the right movements, the ball flies very well and quickly. Very control and good defense.

I have and use the long 5x and I think it is great. It gives a clear feeling and vibration, lots of power and spin from the blade itself. Comparing to a viscaria, I feel like its more powerful and adds more spin, although it isn't as fast. Add your own power and you end up with great quality shots. I think overall its a great blade if you like innerlayered carbon blades.

Thank you very much for your replies.

Well, i love DHS Hurricane blades, their handles are the best suits me really, so that i like to have more of DHS blades, i have only one now which is Hao III, amazing control, and power i keep generating by myself, so i wanted something a little bit faster without sacrificing too much control because of that, and i can't think about anything as comfortable to my hand than DHS blades itself, and i was planning to get that Long 5 while ago before but i i got busy, now there is 5X out as well now it became like i have to choose between that or original standard 5, both are faster than my Hao anyway so for fun i feel like why i care how much speed or percent fast it will be as long it is already fast, i have friends i keep practice with them or play for fun and have a robot so i feel like it will not be as end of life if i changed from Hao to Long, well actually not changing but using both respectively, was thinking about Hao for training.practice and Long 5X for playing.

It is an old thread, i just wanted to say that i already bought Long 5X, it is a nice blade, didn't play with it yet, only trained with it few times with a coach, so it is not a big deal now, hope i will enjoy it more, and maybe i can add Long 5 later one day to see the difference.

Thank you very much all.
