Yinhe pro 13s, good concept but is it worth to try ?

I saw in aliexpress.This blade is inner KLC fo FH(it claim this structure form Long 5) and outer ALC for BH(Structure form viscaria). Do you think about this blade?

I hear a lot of good reviews about yinhe. However i bought the v14 pro with moon and after 2 trainings sessions the wood started to chip (hadnt hit the table or anything, the boosted moon wanting to curl tore apart the wood veneers).
Dont know if i just had a bad version or what, but something to take into consideration.

Hello guys,

i´ve ordered the blade a couple weeks ago from Aliexpress (deeplin store, very good store!).

Due to the pandemic i have no oportunity to review.

First impression:
  • outer alc: pitch sound from v14 is a little bit higher than pro 13s
  • outer alc: speed seems to be identical
  • outer alc: pro 13s feels softer than v14
  • outer alc vs inner klc: noticeable difference! inner feels a bit softer

I didn´t like the V14 because it felt too stiff for me.
13s feels more softer or flexible? and overall the quality feels better.
The handle is also a little bit thicker. Almost identical to the old Hurricane King blade. Thiker than newer DHS blades like PG 12.

Also i have a couple of pictures for you.

Thank, olega12 It look very good finished. I think V14 stiffer because Kevlar vs ALC.

The wood weighs 88-89 g and both outer veneers are made of Koto.


Finish is really good, I will sand the edges above the handle a little bit.


Size: 15,7x15 cm and thickness: ~ 6mm

I'm also waiting :)
In the meantime I can share some information I found about this blade.
According to princett, blade is: Koto (0,8mm) - Ayous - KLC - Ayous (core) - Ayous - ALC - Koto (0,6mm)
So it is H301 + Viscaria construction I think.

I also found some chinese reviews of this blade (I can not post links yet, you can find them by searching "银河Pro13s bilibiili.com"; text one with comparison with 11s and 12s and video one about also d706 and 970xxk)
Using google translate it seems that (probably :p)
*BH side is comparable with viscaria and has low throw angle
*FH is similar to H301X, has good control, has that "eating the ball" (I forgot better term for that...) feeling

There is also (apart from PRO-11s with spruce) a PRO-12s blade that has limba as external FH ply and is only for stationary sale.

-- edit

It seems that the creator of one chinese review translated it to english and uploaded it to youtube. You can find it by searching "milkyway pro13s" - channel Table Tennis Gan (good channel btw, it has some insteresting reviews of interesting blades like viscaria gold or tenergy 19).

It also happened that I bought one :p Blade frequency test shows value of around 1410 Hz (88g weight)
