Nittaku Rorin 10.5 mm vs Darker Speed 90 10mm?

 Time to buy a new blade. I am already on a budget this month and can't buy both blades.   I'd love if someone who has played with both of them could compare them in terms of hardness, dwell time, speed, control.

 Thanks in advance.

why do u say s90 is top level? but rorin 2nd level?

I will go for a Darker Speed 90 very nice blade. And performance is excellent

 Thanks guys and girls. I  ordered the Speed 90 . The next dilemma would be Rorin 10.5 mm. or TSP Special Dynam 10.5 mm.

Maybe its not a question of what to buy Thycaline, but its the question of when youll buy it. Its just a matter of time before you have everything

one of THE most enjoyable viruses around. XD

This one I try to answer.  If you are a power and spin guy, go with Rorin that is softer.  If you like to do offensive blocking and punches, and you like to loop from mid distance, the Dynam is your beast.

Not sure.  I ask myself the same question too.  I think the labor is the same.  As long as people keep buying them at that price level, the manufacturers will also keep jacking up the price.

I'd like to challenge that saying by stating that it's easier to make Jpen considering that the makers only need to make:

I tend to agree with Fatchoi. The more you produce, the cheaper the cost. Since single ply is more popular in penhold and demand is higher, the cost would be relatively cheaper.

I am curious about the thickness like of 10,5 mm whether it is actually specified as having 10,5 mm. I thought the thickness (specified) would be 9 or 10 mm unless it comes to a thinner one like 8,5 mm (thinner is more fragile for single ply hinoki). I got a 9,5 mm Speed 90 from iruiru, but it is specified as 9 mm.
If you want a 10,5 mm Dynam, you can ask iruiru to measure it first.

They have the regular Dynam only.  But I guess you can special order the Dynam Special.  Just give them the stock# 21411.  The regular Dynam is #21011.

CEO,

Is your dynam a special one? did u buy from iruiru.

Any review on the Dynam Special? :)
I currently considering several 1ply jpens.

 Yasaka Musashi Special is 9 mm and it's a great blade, especially for people with small hands.  If you want  an inexpensive 10 mm. blade  try Yasaka Hasha Deluxe.  The best brazilian players use Yasaka j-pen blades.

Where can I buy a darker speed 90?
