Double Fish samples has arrived - what is your opinions?

[banbekas]

I think the Qiji topsheet is quite interesting. It's sticky differently than other Chinese rubbers. The VP is pretty usually sticky. It's hard to describe. Liek the Qiji stickiness is very thin but still sticky while other Chinese rubbers have a deeper sticky feel.
I kind of wish DF would experiment more with this topsheet with VP sponge or others...

Maybe that's the reason why DF would never experiment with it, it's different than the common chinese rubbers, and players prefer things which are familiar to them.

QC sucks too with Qiji and Polestar S. It only took me a month for those two rubbers to bubble. It's pretty much incomparable to VP which is built like a tank. They must have used military-grade rubber for it.

How does Polestar play compared to Qiji and VP?

Which double fish rubber would you advise me to test if I like the feeling of Yinhe Jupiter 3 39" the most?

218

218

I bought 218 Control and in my opinion it is not comparable at all. Dead and slow. Is 218 Spin much better?
After that I was actually thinking about Volant series, but not quite understand which is closer to Jupiter 3

My 218 spin was very fast

My 218 spin was very fast

Volant is also quite fast, but much softer than J3

How does Polestar play compared to Qiji and VP?

Polestar S plays like a normal chinese rubber. Livelier than Neo H3 but not by much. I prefer VP.

Volant Phoenix 1 40. Honestly, I like VP better than Jupiter.

Interesting. I wonder why Polestar costs more than VP. How does Polestar react to booster? I find that DF rubbers with booster are really fast.

I also kinda prefer VP to Jupiter too. Jupiter is harder and may have more power potential, VP is more forgiving, easier to spin, and also quite speedy.

I don't boost my rubber, brother. Putting your whole weight behind your shots is actually very rewarding and a good exercise. Winning or losing doesn't matter in training.

We have different taste then. Jupiter for me is lackluster compared to VP. Less spin, less forgiving, less powerful. Yinhe should have just sticked to selling blades.

I've seen all of these on marketplace, Phoenix 1 is something that I am interested in. Only reason I haven't bought it yet because I'm planning to get Dragon Blade ZLC. I'm still waiting for its review and how it compares to Viscaria, Long 5, TB ZLC.

 

[Grumms]

Does someone play with the DF Super ZLC ? I'm kind of curious about it.

this one? I tried it from a clubmate - it was very bouncy, the ball shoots very fast since it's an outer. it feels softer than expected, with more vibrations

How is it compared to Viscaria and Dynasty Xuxin?

Ok, so not sure I would like it either. Thanks for the feedback.

compare to ZJK ALC, it's softer, about the same speed. Faster than Dynasty

The double fish Paris balls are still the best balls to me by far. Followed by the gewo superselct 3 star balls.
