The Pro's Equipment - Discussion!

Yeah it's Saviga V. Even from your photo you can read the word Saviga.

Saviga V also has quite a distinct stamp pattern, easy to spot the distribution of pimples on the lower part of the rubber

Here is Yang Yiyun with her Yinhe 980 Ultra.

Stiga Inspira Plus, Hybrid XH, Grass D.Tecs OX

Thank you. I noticed she played a little worse. Her attack from the FH was weak. There wasn't enough arc.

No idea what Zhou Qihao is using here.

Just noticing this now, but Yuan Jianan switched from Spectol -> VO 103. This photo is a from a couple months ago, but you can see the code 117-014.

Can't remember if I posted this already but Shan Xiaona has switched equipment again (this has to be a record?). Yasaka Atletico Speed with Speedysoft Dtecs. Backhand is still Rakza PO.

Ghorpade goes for the Viscaria SALC.

Also noticed Doo Hoi Kem is using an off-brand Lin Gaoyuan blade? I didn't recognize the lens in the handle. Looks like a sticker with Buzz Lightyear?

I’m interested to know what brand this blade is by ZQH. He also seemed to switch to a BTY rubber again for BH

Is that... Buzz Lightyear?

Chen Yuanyu seems to be using a black sponge rubber on his BH, a Xiom C55 perhaps?

Made in Korea, same as the Joola ZQH blades too huh. Might just be a redesign of the ZQH90

He was using DNA in Macao...

But does appear to have switched to Xiom

If you zoom all the way the in you can make out the C and the 0? at the end which would point to it being C55.0

After Doha, it appears Qian Tinyi switched from Hurricane 3 -> Tibhar Hybrid MK (Pro?)

Is QTY fully away from H3 permanently? I don’t see a blue sponge on her FH rubber at China Smash

That being said, it might be good for her. Her FH was quite weak and underpowered and maybe a hybrid will help her with some forgiveness and speed

Does anyone know what shirt Felix is wearing in the first few games?

 

[staysmart]

That bat doesn't look like a Loki Is LJK back to DHS?

Oh, my bad, was the event in February

 

[Peter93]

New custom blade for Kim Kum Yong?

Great spot! I never would have thought of this blade.

Yang Xiaoxin switches to Grass D. Tecs. I also noticed her FH sponge was dark purple, like Hybrid K2 Pro ir MK Pro. I wonder if she's getting ready to switch sponsorship.
