Tibhar Drinkhall Range

Lol, get out. No-one wants Drinkhall - we all want the Ma Long and Fan Zhendong range. Am I right? No? 

gee we all know Paul what's the problem

ok we must all only buy ML, TB and ZJ, I forgot

Really? Paul is not here to defend himself is he? Paul is a great ambassador of the sport and yes he is know the world over. He is a friend and your comment was stupid.

Getting a respectable World Ranking and having signature blades would be considered "Making It" to me...

Well done Paul Drinkhall...

No doubt Paul is World Class/Level Player.
But I have a question here:
What is the advantage of using Tibhar Paul Drinkhall Powerspin blade?
Haven't seen a single note about that in the review.
These rallies they have done in the video...I think they could do it again with each possible ALC/ZLC/ZLF or simple Carbon blades and rubbers new generation.
In that case...
I think video review must contain some comparison.
I really doubt Paul is using this Tibhar blade.
A year ago someone told me his blade is Butterfly TB ALC.

It's .4mm thicker compared to the butterfly's ALC line up (6.2mm vs 5.8mm) which means most probably it'll be faster

He switched his sponsorship from butterfly to tibhar and he's not doing half ass sponsorship like dima, he's using full on tibhar's equipment

Market - what about the 100,000 people playing in Great Britain, could sell a few thousand blades.

Anyone else noticed that handle color scheme of Tibhar Drinkhall range is Victas Koji Matsushita series rip-off?

The handle was identified as belonging to his blade is likely more accurate.

That's not the point I am making. I have no doubt it is real, but the people who identified the blade are mostly only able to look at the handle.

In the original link (OP) I was surprised by the Drinkhall Defensive blade... looks good btw, although on the lighter side by my liking. Turns out they talk about the defensive superhero named Jo Drinkhall... Is this a relative of Paul's?

Thanks, Andy.
