  1. Dignics 80 vs Hurricane 3 Neo Provincial

    It's all a matter of perspective. I'm a penholder and I like H3's low angle because it lets me take the ball really low (almost off the floor) and still reliably put it on the table. With a higher throw angle, it's much less consistent to take ball from below the table. I think the higher throw...

  2. Dignics 80 vs Hurricane 3 Neo Provincial

    Yeah Dignics 09c is a popular choice. But beware of the throw angle, it's very weird if you're used to Chinese rubbers.

  3. Dignics 80 vs Hurricane 3 Neo Provincial

    Dignics 80 is quite different from Hurricane 3. You'll have to get used to a new throw angle, new speed, more spin sensitivity, etc. I tried my friend's blade which had D05 FH and D80 BH, and I could not distinguish the rubbers from each other. They felt very similar -- if anything, the D80 was...
  4. Stiga Dynasty Carbon (Xu Xin)

    Review by 'greenbeanmachine' on item 'Stiga Dynasty Carbon (Xu Xin)'

    Personally I think Xu Xin has amazing taste in equipment and this blade is no exception. If you like Skyline 2 rubber, Xuperman rubber, or the Stiga Rosewood blade, you will probably enjoy the Dynasty Carbon. Stiga Dynasty Carbon is not exactly a "carbon" blade. The carbon layer is extremely...

  5. Darker Speed 90 or Imperial

    I have Darker Speed 90 in jpen and cpen. They're a bit too small for my hands, and so I am willing to sell them. Let me know if you want either of them.

  6. DHS H3N for beginner

    There may be some issues starting with Hurricane 3 as a beginner (because of the hard sponge) but you can deal with them. Personally I really like the hard sponge because it gives me good control in the short game, and I can hit the ball much harder if I put in a lot of power. It has a bigger...

  7. DHS hurricane neo 2 or neo 3?

    Try Skyline 2. It's slower and spinnier than Hurricane 3.

  8. DHS hurricane neo 2 or neo 3?

    Skyline 2 is better than both Hurricane 3 and Hurricane 2 in my opinion. But Hurricane 2 is good. Give it a try, you might like it.

  9. Other candidates for GOAT

    Okay y'all so I think most people would agree that Ma Long is the GOAT of men's table tennis. He's the most decorated, and he's demonstrated an incredible ability to strategize and adapt his style of play to beat any opponent. But I think that there are solid arguments that other players are the...
  10. Stiga Dynasty Carbon (Xu Xin)

    Stiga Dynasty Carbon (Xu Xin)

    The Stiga Dynasty Carbon is the blade that Xu Xin has been using since the switch to plastic balls. This blade comes in two versions: the regular version and the Xu Xin version. The only difference between the versions is that the Xu Xin version has Xu Xin's signature on the blade, and has a...
  11. Nittaku Miyabi

    Nittaku Miyabi

    The Nittaku Miyabi is made with only one allwood ply of Kiso Hinoki wood. This is a fast blade with a soft feel. The unique, soft feeling is provided by the Kiso Hinoki wood that is used in its construction. Hinoki is a very fragile material.
  12. Andro Rasanter C53

    Andro Rasanter C53

    Rasanter C53 is the hardest version (53 degrees) of Andro's new Rasasnter-C series. The C series is along the lines of a hybrid rubber -- slightly tacky, with a hard sponge and tensor technology. C stands for "Counterspin". Rasanter-C is a modified version of the well-known Rasanter-R and...

  13. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Xu Xin Dynasty Carbon (excited to try Xu Xin's equipment!) Nittaku Miyabi FL (I play with the cpen version of this blade and got it in handshake so I can train with both)
  14. Ma Lin Extra Offensive

    Review by 'greenbeanmachine' on item 'Ma Lin Extra Offensive'

    This is a fantastic blade that allows you to play some really amazing shots with ease. It's made specially for Ma Lin's style, and that shows. I am reviewing the penhold version of this blade (the version that Ma Lin used). Design: Ma Lin Extra Offensive is designed for playing penhold in the...

  15. Dignics 05 vs Tenergy 05 Hard

    That's fair. T05 Hard is a unique rubber, and it's easy to see why so many professionals still use it (including Lin Yun-Ju, Kristian Karlsson, Ruwen Filus) even though the Dignics series is supposed to be newer and better. I think it's definitely worth it to try T05 hard at some point. Even...

  16. Dignics 05 vs Tenergy 05 Hard

    There are differences, of course. But I think there are many ways in which they feel similar and allow you to play similar shots. T05 Hard and Chinese rubbers both have a hard sponge, and I think that affects the playing properties a lot. T05 Hard also has a lower throw angle than other EuroJap...

  17. Dignics 05 vs Tenergy 05 Hard

    T05 Hard has a totally different feeling to D05. If you like hard Chinese rubbers, you'll like T05 Hard. It's very fast also.

  18. Xuperman Powerplay-x: A Rubber by Xu Xin

    I think the Xuperman rubber plays really fast even without booster. But I don't even boost my DHS rubbers so take it with a grain of salt.

  19. Dignics 05 vs Tenergy 05 Hard

    I think Tenergy 05 Hard is the best butterfly rubber for counterattack. I think Andro Rasanter C53 is even better than T05 Hard though.

  20. Who's your favorite tt retailer?

    I usually go to TableTennis11. Their discount on bulk orders is unbeatable. However, I also like to use some specialty equipment which is hard to find on TT11. For instance, I like to use the blue sponge version of Skyline 2 and some other niche Chinese rubbers. For these, PROTT is a great...
