Nah, those guys have powerful forehands for sure, but neither of them look as technically beautiful when playing Jian Li. Jishan does have the lefty advantage and definitely comes closer but Kai is not in the discussion to be honest.

Kaden does have a really nice forehand game and technique for sure

NB: I wonder if he uses Golden-V, will the scoreline....

For technical beauty I agree with you. Kai's forehand is more compact and I think even more explosive. Jishan is more similar to Kaden.

Here's Jishan:

just thinking really aloud:

Spoiler

Could Kaden perform those almost physics defying FH bomba if he does not use boosted H3 but instead unboosted grippy elastic Jap / Euro rubber.

Just thinking aloud.
