Some fascinating insight from Coach Chu. The English dubbing is definitely improved these days.
He talks about intentionally snapping JPens and regluing to solve resonance issues. Having a blade so good that Yoo Nam Kyu asked to borrow it for a major final Vs Ma Lin.
And he reckons there could be another JPen great in the future. He cites Ma Long's system as being similar to a penhold system (relying on forehand footwork for scoring and not relying on Chiquita).
He currently uses a 93g JPen (assume it's 10mm) with Tenergy 64.
