Lebe ich eigentlich hinter dem Mond ??

Ich war und bin der Meinung, dass nur DHS und Double Fish Plastikbälle produzieren. Wir haben die von DHS.

"Die neue Charge sollte wesentlich besser sein. Das ist auch bei den Palio Bällen so.
(...)
Die neueste Charge der DHS-Polybälle habe ich noch nicht getestet (...)"

Appearance - well made. Like all good rubbers.

Top of pips has textured, not smooth. Soft.

I Played 2 matches - Here's what I think
A+ at lifting underspin ball.
A+ at control direction and depth. Due to it's softness, I can feel the ball and has good control with it.
B - B+ at chopping.
C at spin reversal from blocking. I'm not a pure blocker but John Wetzler also feel the same. John can keep ball low I'll let John uses it in game on Monday night.

I feel like this LP is good for active style, attacking and hitting.

Spent about two hours with it so far... Feels remarkably similar to Talon ox, just slightly slower but with somewhat better control in all strokes. The pips are somewhat firmer than Talon. The pips tops are textured and pick up dust easily, which reduces friction a bit after an hour of playing. Spin reversal is typical for this type of pips, which means it's there but fairly easy for experienced opponents to deal with. Definitely does not produce the type of #$@! balls as often as Dtecs ox (the kind that elicit loud cursing from opponents ), which means better control for the user as well. I mounted it on a Firewall Plus to enhance its reversal characteristics.

My preliminary conclusion is it's a very playable LPs for the close to the table blocker but definitely not for the passive, beginner level type. To get the most out of it you'd need a flexible and active wrist. Against topspin it's important to feel the ball with the tip of the pips first while blocking the ball, then apply appropriate force to guide the ball quickly forward/downward (or sideways) without bottoming out the pips too much. In other words, a small block-chop motion is needed to achieve desirable spin reversal against most topspin drives, whereas a "stick the blade out and hope for the best" block will mostly scrub the spin off the ball and produce an easy return for your opponent to kill. It's very easy to chop all kind of balls with it as the feeling is very linear and predictable, and "meaty" enough to push against underspin with authority. All in all it's an excellent control LPs for the "modern" close to the table LPs blocker who can also attack as well as defend. Probably the best of its kind by the slightest margin. Will test further this week against other opponents.

John uses Yasaka Phantom 007 OX Black. Blade : Donic carbon blade.
Here's what he said -
007 is better when dealing with no spin ball.
Fast aggressive chop block - HF is better.
Just stick it out and let rubber do the work - 007 is better.

Kommen da von Sebastian und Pascal auch Hölzer? Hab ich da was übersehen?
