Very good and helpful video questions I got from the video. 1. For club players will DHS H3 National/Provincial/Commercial make a difference? 2. When boosting how long do you wait for the booster to dry and do you put glue first or directly to the rubber? 3. When does an ESN rubber require boosting when most of them feel "alive" and are softer from the start than H3? 4. Do you lacquer blades before using them because I have had the problem when after few new rubbers blade starts to chip away is that bad blade quality and have you had that problem threw your career?
hey, nice questions 1. theres not much difference: national and provincial just quality control, the commercial its just only slower orange sponge 2. 8-24h depends on booster thickness 3. the harder ones like d09c
just dont get commercial, its shit. National and provincial will make zero difference, theyre both good. Just make sure you are getting the rubbers irrespective of national or provincial, from a branch or franchise that doesnt bubble all the time. Hurricane can do that if you get a shit batch, but most of the time, youll be fine i wait 2 days after every big layer of booster to hurricane, and about 12 hours if i do it to a non hurricane rubber, i put glue on SECOND. NEVER put glue on first, you dont get the full effect of booster. ESN rubber - when i tried them, i boosted it very very lightly to get the activation and nice feel but they are playable without booster too what does lacquer blades even mean?
@@heminghu1434 Thank you for the tips. I mean blade lacquer when you peel off the rubbers sometimes it peels the top layer of the blade and has chunks missing have you had that problem many players lacquer the blade but some say it changes characteristics because rubbers don’t stick good.
@@Acceleratorr1 ahhhhhh just use nittaku or dhs white glue and this problem doesn’t exist. This only happens with those shitty thin glues like andro or butterfly ones
@@heminghu1434 i heard a lot of things about, put glue first cause it helps preventing bubbles, so its bullshit and i just need to apply glue when really glueing the rubber?
Hey Hu, very helpful vid. I have 2 blue sponge provincial hurricanes and now i know why it doesnt work the way it intented. Unfortunately i streched out them on the blade.
After you advise all my shot became much better)))) early i make more forward movement and i make many mistake, but now i understand that i need more spin then speed, and my movement became more up 😂😂😂😂 now my rally became like fan zhendong😂😂😂 but speed not enough, i used chinese rubber both side
I just recently purchased a W968 and bought the Nittaku Finezip that you recommended in this video. Sadly I realized after trying to apply it that it immediately clumps and doesnt spread as well as other water based glues. Also i realized that due to the strong hold , removing the glue seems to have slightly damaged the outer wood. Did you laquer your blade before use to prevent splintering? And how did you apply Finezip to prevent clumping? Thank you for your help.
no problem. I simply apply the glue, spead it out straight away without waiting. Wait for it to dry as well as the blade to try, then stick it on as I've shown in this video. Thats it
I basically got to choose my exact handle size, thickness, blade hardness to a tee, got to trial and error as many blades as I want and get them to keep sending them to me until I liked an exact model, I chose my weight of blade, thickness of the part that the edgetape typically goes. It was definitely an amazing and special experience being sponsored by DHS, who were giving me 100 black, 80 red rubbers per year and 10 blades of my preferred model
Ma long 5 feels way better than ALC or ZLC, i ended up hating them and feeliung that butterfly blades (except korbel) were too fast and overmarketed and oversold to players who deep down care more about fun and feeling good, than control and winning matches with precision in close moments, serving, returning, etc
Thanks for the vid! I was wondering: when you started using H3 instead of Butterfly rubbers - did you have to change your top spin technique to adapt to the H3? You said that you're using more power , but is it still the same movement?
its way different technic with chinese rubbers, if u hit with ur arm like with esn rubbers the ball goes into the net and if u apply enough force to pull over the net with hurricane u will have shoulder pain. so esn rubber technic is hitting with ur arm, chinese technic is hitting with ur body (legs gives spin and hip gives power, this combined is the whip effect)
@@markhorvath760 not exactly, it’s lack of body use and lack of spin that causes physical pain and ball shooting into the net, essentially you haven’t activated the tighter trampoline and it takes more effort to get it going, the right trampoline being hurricane and looser trampoline being an esn rubbber
Sh!thot stuff, Mr H... many thanks... the rolling technique is a gem and you cleared up a lot of nagging little points that no one really gives you...
Grouse Vid! See you online..and D'nong!

hahahah classical mistake we all make.
hi thanks for sharing this ! what about Falco long booster ?is it good and how to use it
@@a-s7179 in my experience, all boosters felt so similar I didn’t care which one I used, it was more about how much I put on
@@heminghu1434 thanks!

Can you give us a review of your personal blade? There is so many mysteries and rumours around this pro version. Does it feel like ZLC or ALC ?

I really didn’t man, I just had to be conscious of spinning the ball on each shot more so, which… I was already doing anyway

Are you luiz Manzano
disqualification for booster😂😂😂😂😂😂
no one has dq-d for using boosters because the ittf cant tell the use of a booster
😋😁
