New guy here. This is my first "proper" set up. I played with the premade Palio Legend for about a year but the rubbers pretty much wore off. so I decided to build one. Have been playing with it for a few weeks & very happy so far, but it's surprisingly heavy (compared to 175gr Palio) which takes some getting used to.
Gorgeous weapon there, brother.

That's a nice upgrade!

I'm exactly the same with [.....] and photography gear.
Tell us about the photograhy stuff 📸 🙂.
I like the cheap stuff so still stick to my A99 but lots of lenses as they are so available and inexpensive.
I also stick to jpeg as raw pp takes away too much tt time 🤫

probably not the right place to chat camera gear at length so I'll just say that I've currently got 2 x canon 5D mkIV and a heap of L lenses that could help pay off my mortgage if I sold them all!

says STAX X9000 is the BEST!
Got myself another Cybershape Carbon, wanted to try straight handle instead of FL(CONC) I already own... also asked seller to try to find me blade with weight around 88-92g, and he actually found one with weight exactly 90.0g...

So far like it very much (it's my main blade for now), but I feel it's mostly not due to st handle, but very suitable weight and balance for me...

Also, for a very long time wanted to try one layer hinoki blade, and finally bought myself new toy, it's Nittaku Miyabi blade...

Really pretty and great quality blade IMO, a bit heavy for my liking (weight is 93g, if I remember right), but still tolarable...
Tried it with some old rubbers I had...

Liked it very much on "training" (just playing randomly with a friend for a couple hours), but after a few lost games in tournament changed to Cybershape... two problems, one is short and soft play (it's too "bouncy" and uncontrollable), second is that black rubber (Gewo Nexxus EL50 Hard) IMO it not for this blade (the red one is Joola Dynaryz AGR 2.0, and it seems fine for me on BH)... so bought two new Joola Dynaryz AGR max and assembled new racket...

It's became even more heavy, and it feels even heavier, still tolarable for me though, but after playing with it 15+ minutes and changing it to Cybershape, the Cybershape feels like a feather... But again, playing in "training" with it was great and fun, but after a couple of games on tournament (obviously lost) I changed to Cybershape again... Problem no.1 is too much for me to handle, short play is very important in my playing style, and it's a pain with this blade, so not for me, but not planning to sell it, because it's just so much joy and fun to play with it, so will keep it for ocassional "trainings" with friends...
