Spectol S1 vs Yinhe Pluto

[AutomaticBackhand]

How do these 2 compare?

In 1.5 /1.6 mm respectively.

How different are they in their characteristics.


Would appreciate if someone who played with both, could give his opinion.


The playstlye would be similar to
Muramatsu and Sun Yang.


How is pushing and chopping?

 

[Gekko]

Very different.
S1 is just a classic short pip feel. A bit dead sponge, but otherwise a very normal. Slips a bit.

Pluto is much closer to medium pip, it slips a lot. Very low throw and quite fast for a medium pip.

If you are chopping the s1 is better, if you chop block, then Pluto is the way to go

Inspiring by Sun Yang?

So you know if there is a close alternative to the Spectol from one of the Chinese brands on AliExpress?

I was going to buy a spectol anyways, but might as well try that route.

Dead sponge sounds good to me.
