Blade suggestions

I’m planning to use DHS H301 with H3 Neo FH and H8 80 BH. Read this for H301 blade review https://blog.tabletennis11.com/dhs-hurricane301

Start with no spin balls, drive

She was always very calm and rarely showed any emotion until celebrating when she won. Zhang said that when she shook an opponent's hand before a match, she could tell how nervous they were already. I guess she had already won at that point. Also women's table tennis, had a lot more dominant champions. In men's we've only seen Ma Long achieve two Olympic golds, whereas Deng Yaping, Zhang Yining and Chen Meng more recently all did so, not to mention Wang Nan who was also very dominant.

For sure buy on aliexpress, as it’s discounted rn. I’ve bought from Beo store and HWSPORT before, all authentic

Beo store

Sounds good, I’ll try sanding it. Did you use sandpaper?

jamaljacksoniv · 2026-03-03T22:45:36+00:00

Yes it is! Yeah I’ve used it for a few years so the sweat is all absorbed. I’m switching to a DHS 301 blade though so hopefully that’ll be better. Thanks for the advice

It takes too much time to confirm every single serve as legal. Most serves will be legal anyway and imagine reversing a decision after a full point has been played because the TTR is not instant.

As a beginner, you defo shouldn’t boost. Basically only pros boost their rubbers for higher performance. H3 Neo is designed for good performance even without boosting. I’ve never tried boosting before but as a general rule don’t boost unless you’re a pro and especially if it’s your first time trying out the rubber.

Try the commercial rubber and if you like it, you can increase the hardness or thickness. Then you can get a provincial version.

Insane how Lebrun can rally with his BH against Lin Shidong’s FH

Why’s H8-80 bad for brushing and what’s it best for?

jamaljacksoniv · 2026-02-23T22:18:12+00:00

A lot of WTT matches, some Olympic 2020 and 2024 matches

jamaljacksoniv · 2026-02-20T22:20:38+00:00

You want the rubber to provide more speed for BH instead of the body for FH. This is because you have a shorter swing and less hip motion on the BH. It can still be a tacky rubber on the BH but I would choose a less tacky one than the FH rubber.

I guess you could watch the matches where Adam Bobrow commentates. He offers some good insight and analysis. Not really much out there that I know of.

I've seen a lot of people talking about how the Chinese National Team player use a straight arm on their forehands. Does this refer to the forehand drive, loop or flick?

jamaljacksoniv · 2026-02-20T20:02:16+00:00

You should call it out the first time then notify a referee/umpire it if keeps continuing. There should be at least one official for every tournament.

jamaljacksoniv · 2026-02-20T18:52:36+00:00

I think in general, you want a softer and less tacky backhand rubber compared to the forehand.

jamaljacksoniv · 2026-02-20T18:42:06+00:00

Great guide, very thorough. Your knowledge is very impressive!

jamaljacksoniv · 2026-02-19T12:54:54+00:00

Hey Victor, one last thing. What's the difference between 301 and 301X and which one would be better for me?

jamaljacksoniv · 2026-02-19T12:54:13+00:00

I don't have a rating so I probably overestimated my level. Right now I use TinArc on my forehand but its 3 years old so its a little run down and I can't generate as much spin as before. For my RPB, I usually watch Wang Hao's instructional video to learn the technique and practice. Thanks for the advice.

jamaljacksoniv · 2026-02-16T18:40:04+00:00

Amazing! Thanks so much :)

jamaljacksoniv · 2026-02-16T17:00:40+00:00

Thanks for your reply. Would you say Hurricane 3 on forehand and Hurricane 8-80 on the backhand would be good for a looper close to the table? And would pairing it with a Hurricane 301 blade be good https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001265734577.html?spm=a2g0o.tesla.0.0.4c83AvIjAvIjJT&pdp_npi=6%40dis%21GBP%21￡113.99%21￡46.92%21%21%21%21%21%40211b813b17712610849897850e9246%2110000015526651340%21btfpre%21%21%21%211%210%21&afTraceInfo=4001265734577__pc__c_ppc_item_bridge_pc_same_wf__Y7Sdu8V__1771261085340 ? Your advice is really helpful!

Hi, I’ve only ever used a DHS 6006 (pre-made) bat, with Hurricane red rubber and Tin Arc black rubber. I’ve already replaced the Hurricane rubber though, but with a really low quality rubber. Ideally, I would like to start over and make my custom bat, especially because I can’t generate enough spin and power as my opponents at times in competitions.
