Played a proper training session with it with lots of loops against backspin and some games against a young boy with long pimples.
With B2 Provincial I was often dropping ball to the net, here I was launching long more often when adding force, throw angle seems to be higher, it took some time to find a right arc to make openers harder to hit. Blocks and flat hits are good enough, speed is all right, not dead not a cannon. I must admit it's indeed a good rubber and a step forward comparing to B2 and others (for me of course)
With serves I din't feel much difference so far, it's good if you do it well, G09c allows both ways though, thin brush or with sponge.
So far I don't feel that I should go any harder than 38d, it still feels harder than G09c, which is quite hard but still feels springy.
It was on koto top Sanwei 75 inner, which I plan to ditch unfortunately. I've ordered a limba inner DHS Fang Bo B2, not B2X, will see how the rubber will play on it. Hopefully it's slower enough to keep BH side controllable.

Battle 3, loves koto alc, on limba top ply the throw is low but sometimes there is no springy effect, you dont feel the rubber and ball...
How do you guys continue a strong attack with it? Imagine that I opened a backspin ball, got a fast block towards my FH.
1. I wait for the ball and drive it forward with quite open angle. It works and produces long, low and fast ball.
2. I wait for it and brush with a compact accurate stroke, also works and makes a higher arc with more spin.
3. I try to hit it forward earlier on raise with closed angle and force and power dump it to the net. It's not easy with other rubbers as well but here I feel the window is really narrow.

So today I was experimenting with my rackets. I had my good old Cybershape with G09c and Glayzer air boosted. What is air boosted? I put my racket in a "pressure chamber" to make the spring sponge x pockets expand and filled with more gas. Does it work? It works too well in fact.
But if someone follows my posts they know I had B3 on my Cybershape, but that bubbled up which means the topsheet unglued from the sponge in some frequent areas. So that rubber is scrap.
But from before I had a B3 cut to a normal blade shape so I glued that rubber to my Joola Vyzaryz Trinity blade. That rubber was boosted almost a year ago and then just sit there in my cabinet unboosting itself. But actually it's still pretty boosted after almost a year. So B3 holds boost very well. I would say it doesn't drink booster very well but what it drinks it holds. This is unlike some blue sponge rubbers that drink booster like it's friday football match time but they piss it out by 30 minutes first half.
My point is on the Joola blade the B3 felt pretty good in this condition. It was fast enough, spinny enough, I could bully my opponents enough with my serve, heck one of my opponents literally tilted that they can't do anything with my serves. That is just hacks.
But then again with G09c in my forehand I am kind of used to countering opening loops like I'm eating truffles. I make shots my opponents say impossible to. So G09c air boosted is just like Dima says with D09c. Just swing and use it.
But today I used my B3 against the same opponents on the some day and it worked just as well actually. So B3 for amazing countering is right up there. Do I like B3 more than Glayzer 09c? Wellllllll, Glazyer 09c feels better to play with if air boosted, But B3 has serve hacks. Serve hacks trump everything since if you can finish a point on 2nd touch then gg, your opponent is tilted.
But I kind of feel that to some extent B3 can be air boosted too. I am not sure but it felt that way in hindsight.
I am kind of gravitating towards B3 again tho G09c just feel so nice. Soooo difficult to chose.

B3 is stiff rubber there is no structure, no density just cardboard feeling rubber no dwell time ...I found koto alc is the best choice for B3 but I found my mind is not working well when I use it because the throw is sometimes low and you loose the flow in crucial moments. I still wait for more loki rxton reviews.

B3 is pretty good too, B3 is probably more consistent but G09c air boosted feels just so right. It's a feeling thing too. When I hit an amazing shot with G09c it feels like I was just hugged by Pamela Anderson in her prime.
If I hit an amazing shot with B3 it feels like dull and nothing but the end result is about the same. I guess my opponent would say B3 is more amazing since they don't know where the hit come from since I can do it from wrist too from my pocket.
If I think rationally I would say B3 is much better and I think the air tuning box effect it quite a bit. But G09c feels like Pam Anderson is holding me.
I get that meth is bad and addictive but so is boosted G09c
I've glued B3 onto DHS B2, will see how it feels.
But yeah, it seems China just keeps using old tractor tyres to produce TT rubbers.

Loki Telson Has better quality than MXP/ Tenergy
But yeah B3 looks like old tractor tyres melted to get semi sticky rubber, no lies

People tell this about every new DHS/729/Yinhe/Loki you name them rubber. And after initial period of praise the interest just fades.
Did they at least learn how to glue topsheets to sponges properly?
yes. Your hands will smell as well after playing

Yeah, Loki Telson is art of gluing rubber to get maximum tension.
There is structure, which B3 didnt have. B3 is like anti spin rubber with great grip if I think about structure. Telson is more like Dignics 80+, MXP50+5 you feel the rubber... It is spinny and B3 has spin too but easier to access, release the monster spin from Telson. B3 is not sensitive to opponent spin.
If you love attack B3 is like 2010-2012 rubber in ESN years.
Telson is 47,5 degree on Japanese scale.
B3 is monster when you love chop-blocking and easy counter shots but needs a lot of glue.... I put 5 layers plus 2 layers of booster to get the bounce
