DHS Hurricane 1 With Yasaka Rakza 7 fh and Donic Bluefire M1 bh

My review

Fh with Yasaka Rakza 7(bought on sept 2013 to replace T64)

- less spinny than M1
- smash better than M1
- lower throw than M1
- less sound than M1

Bh with M1(bought on april 2013)
- Block better than R7
- sound louder
- spin/loop better
- smash/flat hit harder to do
- need to close racket angle more for top spin

Overall
My game get better especially when doing bh drill with Abe. My backhand consistency is improved.
Also practice forehand down the line drill

With this setup I can beat MN, Zb, Mtudm, Hl, Abe, hjd,PokL, Taj, Mud, Fai
still unbeatable-An, Lt, Mpoli, NorAb

DHS Hurricane King Blade

Bought used HK blade and sticked with Donic BluefireM1 rubber on fh and T64 on bh. The blade gave more reaction time and defence much better compared to TBS. Better looping blade rather than smashing. After a month of playing with this equipment my backhand stroke showed  imrovement. However I have to suffer elbow pain when doing bh stroke.

Club result:
lost: AN, MN, ZB, MP
win: abe, hjD, Hl, Ln, Ml
close: PL, Fz

Setup
HK BfM1/T64

Back To Double Inverted

After using pimpled rubber for about 5 months, I changed back to double inverted. The result when using those setup did not show big difference. So no point of stay defensive if the outcome is not better. For me satisfaction is the "key" to the games rather than winning the game alone.
From my analysis of strength and weakness of my modern defensive style:

Strength:
1. More relax
2. Easy win(against some players)
3. Some surprise/unexpected result against higher rank players
4. Less pain after play.
5. Defend against loop ball on b/hand getting better

Weakness
1. Hard to play against control no spin player
2. Become lazy
3. Too passive
4. Less sweating
5. got impatient especially when get weak ball on pimpled side.

Setup
TBS T05/T64
