  1. Friendship 729 battle 3

    Sir, you have used R9 before and now you are using B3. Do you think B3 is similar to R9 or is it better?
  2. Post your latest EJ purchase

    I've always wanted T560. It looks gorgeous. She's a beauty. I'm eagerly waiting for your review.
  3. Why do Zhang Jikes Movements Look so clean?

    Forehand topspin and no problem so far. Feels great and awesome. I don't notice the difference in spin back then and today. As a matter of fact, people are still using H3 and Tenergy with plastic ball. Even though those two rubbers are meant for celluloid. Barracuda, Vega Pro and older gen ESN...
  4. Dignics and its Effect on Sales of Tenergy and Rozena

    Because Barracuda and Acuda offer the same as ESN's newest offerings. Anyway, Butterfly is the Apple of TT world. Everyone will use their product at the end of the day much like everyone will use iPhone because it's just that good.
  5. Why do Zhang Jikes Movements Look so clean?

    Exactly by how difficult is it to put more force on plastic ball? Because if that is the case then Ma Long should have retired along with ZJK. H3 and Tenergy were meant for celluloid ball but those two reign supreme even till this day. The ball change is so insignificant you might as well say...
  6. Choice between T05fx, rozena and T19

    Spin sensitive rubber is good for spin generation and his style is exactly that. It's a bouncy rubber, sure it is but so what? It means he just needs to work on his touch. Getting another Tenergy rubber won't fix that. Even getting Dignics or Chinese rubbers won't fix his touch game just because...
  7. Choice between T05fx, rozena and T19

    Nothing is wrong with your equipment. It's more than good enough for your playstyle so fat. 05FX is great for everything, it's not losing out to any rubbers. Heck, it's more forgiving. No need to change here. Sameg goes for Rozena. It has enough spin, ZYl used to use this and she was world #1...
  8. Why do Zhang Jikes Movements Look so clean?

    I wonder if that slight increase in weight really matters or not to pros. Nothing really changes with the ball changes. Ma Long was still dominating back then minus the final. Zhang Jike was still destroying people left and right when it mattered. Fan has always bee like this. Europeans are...
  9. Seeking Advice on Equipment Upgrade

    729 Super FX Blue Sponge is your answer for FH. Moon Pro Hard for your BH. I think these two rubbers are good enough.
  10. My experience with Chinese rubbers

    Speaking of experience with chinese cheap rubbers, mine has always been very good. I've gotten my hands on several of them: 1. H3. The only H3 I didn't try is the 37 version. 2. Volant Phoenix. It was a really good experience. It's a bit weaker than H3 but not much different really. 3. Qiji...
  11. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Just a little update on R9. Yesterday I took it off and peeled off the glue on the sponge. After that, I re-glued the rubber and had some session with it. The rubber's property changed. It's softer and I can feel the ball dig deeply to the sponge. It's getting faster but then I notice slight...
  12. Is there a way to fix the top ply or stop it from splintering? (Photos attached)

    I used superglue around the edge of the blade. Every new blade of mine receives similar treatment.
  13. Rubbers Shrinking?

    Can't comment on EL-D but EL-P does shrink after a while. Considering these two rubbers are still from one family, I'd say EL-D will shrink just like its brother.
  14. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    It is. Maybe the factory boosting is still there, I don't know. Boosted H3 Provincial BS Vega China
  15. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    I agree that everything is relative but at the same time, it's quite true if you look at it from a different angle. I mean, I have been using unboosted B2 Gold and unboosted Volant Phoenix on FH. It's undeniably faster than those two rubbers. For me, even unboosted B2 Gold is fast enough to end...
  16. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    R9 is faster and more powerful it's not even comparable
  17. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Changed my FH rubber to Loki R9 a few days ago and an unboosted volant phoenix on my BH. Previously, I had B2 Gold on FH and Moon 12 on BH. I slapped these two chinese rubbers on my newly trusted Loki V5. The blade is very head heavy and heavy. R9 is a great rubber. Powerful, even with a small...
  18. What is the best ESN Hybrid rubber for FH?

    The experience I have had is exactly the same as yours. Two days ago I tried to play N80 again after a few months of letting it rot. It is wonderful, lol. Counterlooping is still godly but now, the loop and push are loaded with massive spin. What a strange rubber, lol
  19. Table tennis a dull and easy lazy sport?

    It's a dull sport. I skip the part that is only push and third ball attacks. It's different when I'm the one who is playing. I enjoy winning from third ball attack or my opponent can't return my serve. Is it an easy sport? Yes, anyone can do it. To be good at it? No. The stress and the mental...
  20. Big Dipper, Loki Arthur China experience.

    Interesting. So, these rubbers that take time to break in is getting better the more we used them? They don't experience degradation in quality instead they got better. People should copy this technology. As for me, I think the term breaking in is more like the tack is slowly disappearing and...
