Edit : I think I missed some irony here ^^

It's just their knack for design rip-offs

I got that after I posted my reply

Yinhe 05 handle, like the 01, is not as smooth as the T8s or the MC-4. Why? Why not making them of the same quality?

 

[Tyce]

I quite like the 01s handle tbh, though it's quite different than other handles

 

[Grumms]

I like them too, almost the best, but just below T8s and MC-4 handles.

The result. So smooth with wet glueing

Another balde to try :

I bought a new setup. Tibhar Libra SAC blade weight in at 87 g (Flared handle). It was on sale from tt11. Tibhar K3 on both sides. The weight with K3 rubbers is 192 g, wich is a little more than i like. I am going to put Glayser 09c on both side or Hurricane 3 on forehand. I had K3 laying around, so i will try how it is, but its probably to fast for me.

Both of these are really good

I don't doubt that. Bo2 has a 1301Hz frequency, surprised that it's so low.

 

[Grumms]

I can't find a 47,5º Goldarc 8. Is it worth insisting or, I yiu already have ESN rubbers (Gewo Nexxus for me), you can pass?

Regular or Pro? I have a couple regular TMXi and they are nice, though in the end quite similar to Harimoto ALC. A tic slower but more natural feeling to me. I've heard TMXi Pro is very different

This is the pro version. Curious how it would play - but need to fix my back before testing it

What's your opinion of the Moon blue?

 

[Tyce]

What's your opinion of the Moon blue?

I'll give mine (without being asked):
...disappointing.

I don't know if it's the sponge being too hard (M+) but the topsheet skids, a lot. Can't put spin on with subtle strokes, so for topspin I have to whack really firmly (and then still the result is meh) and a proper amount of backspin through pushing is just seemingly impossible. Yes, I have the new logo version.
Used it on a couple of different blades, too, but everywhere it's the same result. It's kind of similar to a sheet of rubber that's humidified too much, but then permanently so.

What's your opinion of the Moon blue?

I had him on a Stuor Harimoto ZLC and it was great on my FH. But, it's not tacky, so I lost the advantages of this (easy flicking, easier loops,...) compared to my Arthur China or my Big Dipper. But I want to try it on the BH, and that will happen tonight !

 

[Grumms]

Tested both Bo2 and Yinhe 05.

Bo2/Big Dipper 38/Moon 12 M- : Too slow. I need faster rubbers. So next try will be with Arthur China Boosted on FH and Arthur China on BH.

Yinhe 05/Arthur China/Voland Phoenix 2 37º : almost perfect setup. My FH was a beast. On the BH, it lacks the bouciness of my usual Gewo Nexxus, but there's a lot of safety in everything. Not totally convinced. I will try Aurora Max Boosted and H3 Neo 37º boosted.

i also had my eyes on this one, i saw a review which said it was pretty similar to w968 which ive always wanted to try.
