Ma longs blade and rubbers

If i'm not wrong, he uses DHS Power PG-7 with Hurricane 3 Rubber with Blue Sponge on his forehand, and Tenergy 64 on his backhand :D And if i'm not wrong on this either, this combination is hella heavy; Chinese blades and rubbers, especially by DHS are quite a chunk to hold, haha!

Thanks a lot :D

He uses DHS Skyline Blue sponge national team version (black) on forehand, and Tenergy  64 on backhand

i thought that chinese had light bats

No, actually they have the heaviest bats

He's using a custom DHS 7 ply blade named the DHS-506. With DHS TG3 on forehand and Tenergy 64 on backhand

Thanks for the view of the shed.  Also I particularly appreciated the video on the pen holder Tomahawk serve.  I play shake hands, but your demonstration helped me better understand how to get under, top. and side spin.

I am still having trouble with the pendulum serves.  I can not seem to get very much speed into these shots.

Thanks again.

Hi Bob,

For the Pendulum serve try to relax your wrist and flick it back and then forward like a snake striking.

Hey Michael,

Ma Long now uses 

BLADE: DHS Hurricane Long 2

BLACK FH: DHS NEO Hurricane 3 (blue sponge)

RED BH: Butterfly Tenergy 05

Chinese team can use any blade and backhand rubber as long as the FH rubber is DHS and black (cause black is spinnier).

@Cloud Cledera, is black really spinnier? Are you sure? I thought that both colors are the same if they are the same rubbers....

I think they are the same too.

Probably the reason why tires are black and not red. It's actually a matter of preference but MOST use black as FH. Even I do.

Same but i'm not sure about the spinnier part

It doesn't matter. Oh and one more thing: Chinese players whose FH are black also use blue sponge on their rubbers because blue sponge is extremely hard and advanced.

hehehe Uses timo boll alc , Neo hurricane 3 with Blue sponge in his forehand and tenergy 64  on hBackhand?

i'm not sure, i think he switches rubbers and blades so often

Why do pros change so often?

Last time i saw him playing, it looks like he is using an alc right now, but i am not quiete sure

all wrong lol.

custom PG7 (5W 2A/C)

fh: black original Skyline TG3 topsheet with national blue neo sponge (not #21 <- this was a test sponge during transition to speed glue ban prior to neo's development)

bh: T05

source: seen his racket up close.
