Reviews of DHS Hurricane Long 5X - Chinese Penhold (11)
Good feeling... And very fast.
Very control and speedy national PRO blade. I like it, because i can smashed all my opponents. Very good played with sticky rubbers and with Tensor rubbers too. So wonderful weight balance, i have a blade 90 grams, it is so cool.
I had high hopes for this blade because of the above ratings, but man i was wrong. This is certainly not the fastest blade on the planet as the speed is at off- maximum. Yeah, it feels good looping, but it is modest in everything else. Low throw mean smashing goes downward, block is decent but it doesn't feel crisp, flics are slow because the blade is medium in hardness. I own a Timo Boll ZLC too and compared to this the zlc is better in every single aspect... hell, this isn't even the best chinese blade, there are some all woods that i tried and were better... If you're an somewhat experienced player looking for speed, this is not it.
Very fast blade for playing a modern style attack game. Not the Version that Ma Long uses but of a similar composition for the masses. I bought this w/ provincial neo 3 blue 41 degrees on fh and prov neo orang 37 degrees on bh for fun to copy Ma Longs setup. After a few adjustments going from dignics 05 on the Backhand Id have to say Im very pleased. Monstrously fast and soft neo h3 on backhand. Softer sponge engages with a more compact stroke. The blade seems to have a flex catapult effect.Its easy to play a passive backhand counter top spin game off the table,while looking for the opportunity to attack with forehand. 10 out of 10
This blade is very fast when you hit flat, topspin and loop the ball. It has a very good control like other slower blades. Pretty difficult to loop the backspin ball on the forehand side, you have to do full swing to be able to execute the right looping shots. Topspin on the forehand and backhand side are stable like a wall. Counter topspin is like a thunder. Its a beast! I love it. So easy to use.
