Customer review for Yasaka Mark V

External Review for Yasaka Mark V on March 9, 2019

This is just a short review, or maybe a confession. After more than 3 decades I finally back again to this sport. And several months ago, I've been testing several blades and rubbers. Yasaka Ma Lin EO Cpen, Donic Waldner Black Devils CB Cpen, DHS H301 Cpen, Donic Burn Off Cpen, Tibhar SPW FL, Xiom ZQ FL, Xiom Ice Cream AZX FL, Nittaku Acoustic Carbon FL, XVTs, Sanweis. Yasaka Mark V, Donic Bluefire M2, 729 RITC Tack Speed 2000, 729 Focus III Snipe, 729 Aurora, Palio AK47 Red/Yellow/Blue, Stiga Power LT, DHS GA8, DHS H3N National Orange, Nittaku FA G1, Xiom Vega Pro, Andro Rasant Powergrip, 729 Battle II, KTL Pro XP. That's all as long as I can remember. The main thought is I just realize the best of Mark V after I've been through with many setups of blades and rubbers, and I've made a certain big progress in my plays. At the first time I had the Mark V with Yasaka Ma Lin EO, I did not feel any special about this legend rubber. But today, I know for sure, very very sure indeed, that this rubber is a real legend. Mark V is a real "do-it-all" rubber as those said. I can execute all my strokes very well with ease. My powerloops, smashes, punches, hits, drives are fast and sharp, blockings are good, touches are easy, choppings are good also. Basically I am a penholder, but I decided to learn playing with FL too. My styles, when using Cpen I use Ma Lin's style, and when using FL I use Kreanga's style, killing with my BH. We must be at a certain step of skill untill we can use the best of Mark V can give, all the gears. So, my thought is that this legendary Mark V is not for beginners, cause beginners can not explore all the gears of Mark V. No wonder someone said so many advance players still using Mark V, and they are so good for sure, because they know how to use all the gears. That's all...
