DHS Sponsored Players List

[joshmak10]

Most companies have a list of their sponsored players, but DHS is the biggest brand that doesn’t (at least, they don’t seem to on any of their english sites). Thus, as a DHS stan, I thought I’d create a thread for a list of DHS sponsored players and their equipment. Feel free to mention anyone that I have missed or update me of any equipment updates/mistakes

Jang Woojin
Blade: W968
FH: DHS Hurricane 3 Neo Blue Sponge
BH: Victas V15 Extra Sticky

I believe he is sponsored by Victas and they let him use DHS? Or is he sponsored by both?

He’s 100% sponsored by DHS, he gets his own signature W968 blades with his name on them from DHS and is probably also sponsored by Victas since he has been using the sticky V15 extra for years now

 

[Robin0910]

Sarah De Nutte is also sponsored by DHS and uses W968 with H3 BS on fh, not sure about her bh

 

[Robin0910]

Ionescu uses Long 5 / W968 but no DHS rubbers

 

[Robin0910]

Zhou Kai
W968
H3 Neo BS
Dignics 09c

 

[Robin0910]

Zhou Kai
W968
H3 Neo BS

Same or similar with Kaui Man, Zhang Rui, Chen Yuanyu, etc. Essentially, the majority of CNT is sponsored by DHS

Interesting, she only uses H3 as a DHS product with her blade and BH rubber being Butterfly (Viscaria Regular and 09C). Are we sure she is sponsored

In that case, you have many names that should not be up there just because of using DHS equipment.

“战德班 赢巴黎” 2023红双喜全国伙伴会议暨爱心公益活动举办
http://www.cnpingpang.com/portal.php?mod=view&aid=63299

在巴黎奥运周期，中国国家队有13名顶级球员成为红双喜的代言人，他们都使用红双喜套胶或底板获得了世界冠军，双圈大满贯得主马龙、奥运冠军陈梦是其中的代表，王楚钦、孙颖莎作为新生代的代表人物，全套器材全部由红双喜提供，在本次年会上，红双喜亮相了马龙的金满贯狂飚龙5，也同时公布了2023赛季王楚钦和孙颖莎使用的狂飚王和狂飚飒底板，王楚钦已在新加坡大满贯赛事上正式启用狂飚王底板。正反手狂飚3，或正手狂飚3反手狂飚8，也成为目前中国乒乓顶尖高手主流配置。

During the Paris 2024 cycle, 13 top players of the China national team became the spokespersons for DHS. They all won the world titles using DHS rubbers or blades...

Who in my list is not sponsored by DHS?

The 13 contracted CNT players.

http://sh.people.com.cn/n2/2022/0610/c134768-35309745.html

与此同时，红双喜也没有忽视国内外乒乓赛事上的明星效应的力量。原国家队的王励勤、王皓等都是红双喜的签约队员，“狂飙王”及“狂飙皓”至今吸引无数的乒乓球迷；红双喜如今不但与马龙、梁靖崑、王楚钦、张煜东、向鹏、丁宁、陈梦、孙颖莎、王艺迪、钱天一、张瑞、蒯曼、覃予萱等多位中国优秀乒乓选手签约，而且还与美国、韩国、比利时等海外选手签约，“明星造市”的影响持续扩大。

At the same time, DHS has not ignored the power of star power in table tennis events at home and abroad. Wang Liqin and Wang Hao of the former national team are all contracted players of DHS. "Hurricane King" and "Hurricane Hao" have attracted countless table tennis fans to this day; Now, DHS has not only signed contracts with Ma Long, Liang Jingkun, Wang Chuqin, Zhang Yudong, Xiang Peng, Ding Ning, Chen Meng , Sun Yingsha, Wang Yidi, Qian Tianyi, Zhang Rui, Kuai Man, Qin Yuxuan and other outstanding China table tennis players, they have also signed contracts with overseas players from the United States, South Korea, Belgium and other countries. The influence of "star market" continues to expand.

You cannot deny the possibility of a player having a contract with DHS just because he/she uses its rubbers only. If he/she is in the official catalog, then include him/her and make a note until you have evidence that says otherwise.

 

[zeio]

Include these KNT players who appeared in a 2021 video on why they use H3.

Both Kuai Man and Zhang Rui have their personal fh rubbers sold by DHS so they’re def sponsored by them. I don’t think Kuai Man is sponsored by butterfly since she’s no their list of sponsored players

 

[Tony's Table Tennis]

sponsorship has different tiers
so OP needs to be clear on what he considered sponsorship imo

 

[Chang]

Ovidiu Ionescu also uses Long 5 or W968, not sure if he’s sponsored ​

He had tape over Ma Long face at the bottom of the blade, or maybe it was on the handle. Recently saw it in match.

Perhaps Cho Seungmin is also sponsored by DHS. There is also thread with photos on the forum.

W968
H3 BS
H8-80

What about An Jaehyun?
