Review of Friendship/729 SP Transcend

Great attacking power with Ultra tacky topsheet.
Combined with Transcend sponge this product is lively away from the table as well as close. Transcend is lighter and faster than traditional Chinese sponges. Sponge stores energy to release into the ball, while most sponges allow energy to dissipate.

Review of Kokutaku 868

Tulpe 007 is a bit more tacky, a tad faster, and has a better wearing topsheet than BLÃ¼tenkirsche 868

Review of KTL (LKT) Pro XT Silver Dragon

It is not as light as LKT Pro XT. It has the same topsheet but the sponge is harder and therefore also heavier.

Review of Nittaku Hammond Z2

I ordered the maximum thickness version. Along with a wood with SZLC is the racket. The fastest combination I've ever had. Now, I tried to adapt and close the palette more. If I don't succeed, I will also try with woods with more control, OFF, or OFF-. In my opinion, they are faster than Dignics 09C. They are extraordinary, but if you are at the average or close to professional level, try them on wood OFF or Off -, and the 2.1 versions, not maximum. I say this because I tested them with a friend on a pure wood, without carbon, Off, 2.1 thickness, and the sensation was of speed with a lot of control. On my wood, with SZLC, OFF +, maximum thickness, I no longer have that feeling with good control. It's the cosmic rocket.

Review of Stiga DNA Dragon Grip

I successfully use this paddle face on forehand. I also bought a rubber Stiga DNA Platinum hard variant, which I use on backhand. This is my first time playing a hard rubber, and I don't regret it. I had to go from soft to hard. I was able to compare the two types of rubber, and I can say that Dragon Grip it has average durability than Platinum. Dragon grip loses its grip if it plays in a room where there is no air conditioning, and there is moisture. The rubber is loaded with moisture and the ball slips , compared to Stiga Platinum, which is not so sensitive to moisture. He has these two incovenients. Stiga Dragon grip is a very good rubber , but when it breaks, I want to exchange it with Stiga DNA Platinum extra hard.

Review of XuShaoFa 999 ZCD

This rubber is mildly tacky, very elastic topsheet. Break these sheets in and they play wonderfully. Harder sponge (44-47) Only potential drawback is this rubber runs heavy.
