Rubbers Like Wang Chuqin's Setup

Wang Chuqin uses DHS Hurricane 3 National forehand and Butterfly Tenergy 05 backhand — same configuration as Fan Zhendong, but with a particularly aggressive two-sided attacking emphasis. These picks suit explosive close-table attackers who want Chinese-style spin signature.
