Review of PP Taiwan Apollo 3-Ply HinokiI owe many blades and have tested countless of rubbers. It is a hobby aftrerall.I am bored with carbon blades, expensive or cheap. I never test a 3-Ply 8mm thick Kiso hinoki outside with a thick American Hinoki inside until recently. The reason for me to make this review because of the excitement to share my experience. If some blades come from some BIIIGGG brands like Butterfly, Donic, Tibhar, Yasaka or Andro , it would be anticipated and understood. But if it comes from a Taiwan PP brand (in Taiwan it is called I LOVE PINGPONG), it is a big surprise. http://ww3.ping-pong.tw/product_info.php?cPath=24_173&products_id=4616. It is Taiwan PP APOLLO 3-Ply Kiso Hinoki + American Hinoki. It is a rare CL type handle; a smart combi between China CS and Japenese Jpen handle. A smart combination between outer Kiso Hinoki and thick core American Cypress (Hinoki). I am a penhold player so most of the time I use penhold. There are many choices in its website; FL, ST, Jpen, CS, etc. Well, recently I re-match it with my favorite DHS GoldArc 8, then Rhyzm-P. Then Palio Aeolus, Xiom Vega Tour (I know many of the gurus out there prefer Vega Pro), Rakza 9, Hurricane 3 Neo, Hurricane National Blue Sponge, and finally the legendary T05. I even try with the low-priced Palio Hadou 40+ (42-44) and Palio HK1997 Gold (I don’t like AK47 series because non-tacky at all). It is fair to try low-priced rubbers as well. I asked my team-mate to try it as well. Guest what. This blade is a magic. I like it. They like it. It is NOT because the blade is new or cheap or expensive. But it is an excellent blade in speed, spin and control. This blade is somehow (don’t get mad please Hinoki and Darker Speed 90 lovers) better than ......... many single or multi-layer blades. As a pingpong lover, it is truly amazing, a truly new and refreshing experience for me. Try it. http://ww3.ping-pong.tw/index.php?cPath=24 May 24, 2019 | |||||||||||||||
