DHS 506 Ma Long

Excellent blade for heavy top spin game and spiny serves. Nice power in flat hits. Good balance between speed and control. I really adore the feel of the ball in forehand topspins from mid range as well as flat hits from near the table - very dynamic strokes with this blade. Requires a good touch for blocking, pushing and serve receiving. Overall great blade for power and spin. Works well with both; commercial NH3 and national H3. I love its powerful forehand topspins, for me they're way better than Ma Long 3's, which feels a bit blunt compared to 506 in this stoke. However Long 3 gives me better control in blocking, pushing and receiving - that's why I moved on to Long 3. Having said that, I really do miss the stiffer power of 506. For the time being I keep it as a back up blade, I may come back to it when I improve my touch.

i got this blade a while back and not only is it the most comfortable blade i've ever tried but it's the most consistent blade by dhs and on the market considering it's speed. i definitely recommend this blade for all types of offensive players especially for mid-long distance attackers as well as close to the table counter-ers and blockers. amazing blade!

Absolutely best blade by DHS so far, even at great price! So easy to do open loop, and I just could keep attacking with it, which is what I wanted in past two years! Finally, I find it and will not switch to another for sure. about 155$, not cheap, but worth of the money... By the way, PG-7 is really good blade and looks like 506.
