Butterfly Gergely Carbon

Review of Butterfly Gergely CarbonBlade is good and light I used donic coppa gold on bh & fh for this blade have to control otherwise ball is flying anywhere for me hard to control,I put MkV so the control will be good but ok not much have to be advanced player to handle this paddle so I switched to xiom strato Fh,Bh rakza7 soft max all controllable even on hard smash ,spin,topspin doesn't matter

Review of Butterfly Viscariahere is my honest review of this blade i am updating , this blade has a low throw, it crispier in feel i can make the ball slow or fast everything is possible with blade you name it spin, chop, BH,FH, smash but the handle on this blade is a minus point plus the size of the blade had to be half cm. extra which is ok , I changed the handle on the viscaria ,changing is very easy dip the handle part in boiling for 10 minutes and slide through the handle with a sharp knife slowly it comes, clean and then apply which ever handle is flexible. i changed the handle, a long flared one to my surprise it works perfect better than the original handle i am using Dhs Skyline TG 3 on the FH & Dhs hurricane on BH the quality on my shorts have increased and the speed is getting better day by day

Review of DHS Wind CW-CFrankly to say I owe many blades like butterfly gergely tamca,xiom strato,xiom zetro quad,yasaka malin,aruna Off+,joola k7. But none of these blades were powerful on their strokes then I came towards a video Chinese coach giving training in YouTube which rubber to use on fh and BH and what blade should a player use mostly off or off + whichever one prefers ,I use to use tensor rubbers on fh and it was difficult sometimes to smash so i put hurricane 3neo on on fh on xiom strato but results were moderate ,so I decided to bring a wind series 1030 blade and same hurricane 3 on the Fh but flex was there but no power,I was obsessed at last I came across this blade the Dhs wind series CW-C I read the reviews and decided last try I put Dhs Hurricane neo3 on Fh&BH Tibhar Aurus man what a blade heavy though powerful extreme blocks backhand smash,topspin, Fh topspin are so fast and perfect accuracy on the table I was surprised its handle is so beautiful like a socket fitting the palm and so agressive, responsive,accurate & damn powerful thanks to Chinese coach putting good ping pong videos to improve ping pong at a higher level no good coach in India they recommend tensor rubber on Fh .Hurricane rocks and last but not the least ladies &gentlemen this blade cost around $25 or 30 very cheap and solid quality same like stiga & butterfly blades but I will suggest this is the blade till date i have come across heavy but with lot of flex never forget to use a Hurricane 3neo,skyline, or the 8 on FH if you boost the rubber it can be more powerful on strokes and BH whichever tensor rubber suits you'll, Great blade

Review of DHS Fang Bo CarbonThis blade is ok specially when it comes to close play and mid, I like this blade in all aspect, As for my previous blade was the DHS Wind CW-C very heavy blade good to finish points during smashing, this blade's feel is somewhat like my yasaka Malin, Blocking on this blade is fantastic, I heard plenty saying that the hurricane long 5 & the Fan Bo 2 carbon are almost similar except for a slight change in the size so i preferred fang Bo as it is cheap than the hurricane long 5. I think this blade can be even used by beginners they will develop a good skill a good accuracy this blade is 5.9 mm in thickness thinner to my previous blades,also this blade is very responsive at the time of receiving tricky serves and chops , close play to mid this blade is unforgiving, from long distance it is also ok but one should have a good footwork , I am using the dhs hurricane 8 on Fh & Dhs Tin Arc 5 on the Bh Try this blade may be there will be luck standing your ways brother 's & sisters A cheap & Very responsive blade go for it

Review of Donic Baum EspritThis is very good blade specially for looping it is slightly slower to that of the viscaria, the precision is better during flicks and Backhand, to get the best of this blade, and get a similar feel like that of the viscaria use the traditional DHS Skyline 3 boosted on the Fh and Rakza Z hard on the BH, serves go real deep and the defense mechanism of this blade is very good, this blade is similar to the Xiom Stradivarius , the donic baum has a softer touch whereas the stradivarius has a stiffer touch, overall its a very good blade which will not disappoint you

Review of Friendship/729 Z-1 (Z1)This is a nice blade for the price is very cheap using MkV on both sides, 1st it was a bit difficult to control the ball on the table but when I got used to it,it's fabulous good for smash and topspin,you can back fire topspin to topspin but need a lot of footwork,this one gives a nice ping sound too for me it is like an all-around blade though it is an OFF+ blade, I play close &mid so for me it's ok ,nice blade

Review of JOOLA Aruna OFF+I am using stiga genesis S on BH & FH . This Blade has good control, topspin is superb, loop and chopping is also good, smashing depends one can hit harder the way you like , serving is also good it is somewhat like the xiom strato off++ but still has good control and balance over the ball I prefer this more than my xiom strato , for those players who want to play an aggressive and offensive game this blade is for you go for it

Review of Tibhar Drinkhall Power Spin Carbon1st of this blade is said to arcylate carbon blade it doesn't look like, the carbon looks like that of a regular blade, blade is stable on the Bh similar to my bty viscaria but on Fh i found it is not stable doesn't go as expected it becomes difficult to topspin, or maybe i have to do it in a different angle i don't know, my viscaria plays like a charm i use dhs hurricane 3 and yasaka rakza x on bh, didn't like this blade much i don't know, i feel i will stick to my viscaria,

Review of Xiom StratoCurrently I am using my bty viscaria It's been long I had used this blade, after lot of research in table tennis I thought of bringing this blade back to life for a try & I used rakza 7 and hurricane 3 neo previously on this blade, recently I put my old viscaria blade rubbers on it and also changed my handle from ST to FL , since I have ordered new rubbers decided to give a honest review, speed, control & are not that par with my viscaria if I rate this with my viscaria I would rate it 6 and viscaria I would rate it 10, even though the Strato is so thick it lacks a lot in power,speed , control maybe slightly ok Bh I found a bit good it's not as aggressive as my viscaria , I just wanted to compare Strato to my viscaria so had to write a honest review, I think or maybe if it had Alc carbon maybe would had performed a bit better ,on the serves I could serve short there where it slightly excells ,and chopping I liked I can say 40% touch play is also like 50% topsin is good but depends I may give 50% I had to struggle to put power on the ball but with my bty Viscaria it is unforgiving small errors u r done (boy no chance) with the strato there is a not a chance to overcome gaining points through most of the means , by the way I am using DHS hurricane 3 on Bh &DHS skyline TG 3 on Fh I like this setup a lot ,on my viscaria I updated rakza 9 on my Bh instead of DHS Hurricane 3 and my DHS skyline TG 3 on Fh
In my opinion those who really want to excel in table tennis I would recommend few blades ,( stiga Dynasty xuxin, bty Viscaria, Harimoto Alc, long V ,Timo boll Alc rest I would never go for)

Xiom Zetro Quad
|
Review of Xiom Zetro QuadXiom zero quad is a very nice blade I used to use butterfly gergly then shifted to xiom strato also a unique blade but this one is a bit different it lacks in power No problem but a little effort can solve,I am using donic bluefire m2 on both sides this blade has it all, doesn't matter how hard your opponent topspin the ball the ball is back on the table my strongest opponent is a guy using ox rubber both sides this guy used to make all players confused chopping and topspin used to become a big problem, it was hard to get the ball on the table, I tried even the amultart but was all in vein this one xiom zero quad has it all doesn't matter what your opponent is upto remember the game is yours , this blade changes the Damn situation and I love it . I am not an intermediate player though medium but I compete with intermediate players they to ask me how you get such a strong topspin on the table back this blade can make your opponents frustrate if you have the right skill while playing I also have the yasaka malin with approximately same feel but I prefer zetro quad becoz I have noticed one thing in zetro & my strato when I topspin the ball it goes slow but when it touches the table it becomes so fast & aggressive becomes difficult for opponents get the ball back, At last I will say ladies & gentelmen try this blade out and enjoy every moment of the game

Review of Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensivefrankly to say this blade is a very good in all its aspects but the disadvantage of this blade is it is not still crafted as per expectations, i used the yasaka rakza7 on both sides but there were problems getting the ball on the table, so i tried using short pips on Fh spectol it was difficult too, then i purchased the aruna off+ where the handle is flared and flexible for Fh & Bh but was still not satisfied so i purchased the DHS CW-C blade which is a nice blade and heavy has a big head & face and nicely well crafted handle & good performance on the table , so after my observation & conclusion I came to know that yasaka malin has a short handle and the head & face in a bit small, so i added a piece of extra 6mm wood to the handle to make it a bit long and sanded the handle to fit my hand exactly, now i can topspin with short pips easily good control and now i am trying to put DHS skyline neo 3 on it , this blade is a very good blade but craftsmanship is a bit poor so players have no idea why they cant get good power on this blade, i figured it out after a year now this blade performance in really deadly, i hope in the long run yasaka improves and upgrade this blade with a beautiful head & a bit bigger face like Dhs & a flared handle like those of stiga blade, i recommend this blade for players of all types

Review of Yinhe T-8SThis blade is ok, not too good in its performance it's good in smashing, on my forehand topsin this blade rocks, and blocking Fh flicks it's good, the disadvantage I found is, it's bad on the BH, only because of it's bad craftsmanship, the wings on the blade are not wider, so the hand wrist doesn't get locked hence BH shots go out, few go in, actually it's a nice blade but due to the wings the game gets spoiled, the wings are similar to that of fangbo alc , if it has wings like the viscaria it would been better on the BH, I brought this blade since my viscaria is dying, and no much money to spend so ended up with this as a replacement, many have compared this blade to the viscaria, I actually disagree, if u r really used to the viscaria it's a complete different story, if u really have good viscaria with a good weight like 92 grams and the wood is crisp than a player really knows what a viscaria is all about,
I have the s series viscaria, on the BH my viscaria is so fast that my opponents have no time to think, here the t8s lacks if it had koto on one side it would been better and proper crafted wings , I m using the traditional dhs hurricane 3 on Fh and yasaka rakza X on Bh
