Is STIGA TOUR really soooo UNTACKY ?

toripoff · Jun 15, 2014

I have Just Bought Stiga Tour H and M ...
and when i rub my hand over them, it didnt gripped at all... so is this defaulted piece or what ??

and if its geniune.. then how is it possible to spin the ball??? do i need to change the playing technique ??? because at tabletennisdb.com , it showed 9+ spin rating..... and i m not able to spin much as of now...

blocks are of greatest quality though... i loved it!!

haha.. u dont know how much i was waiting for this particular question !!

i thought the same way when i started using this rubber.. but after some time, u will feel the difference...

it has a special kind of technology within, which is non-reactive to incoming spin, but can produce a huge amount of spin, just a bit change in technique is needed....
u need to brush the ball precisely .... thats it !!

good luck

I was playing with it for a while, But because of its bad spin and tack i replaced it. It was actually horrible spin!

yeah.. it needs a bit of patience...
it needs a complete fast hitting action to spin the ball...
you cant just produce a lot of spin by its top sheet... as the top sheet is not grippy at all...
so u need to include your sponge into your shots.... this rubber feels great when you are use to of it.. trust me..!!

worst in HUMID conditions though...

yes, i tried it on my backhand, what i amazed to watch is how easy it is to hit a fast backhand on a heavy backspin serve... heavy means, like really really heavy backspin....
wwoooooowww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the Stiga sponsored players here has a few samples
I felt the top sheet, it felt so different - unlike any normal topshop.
I think the material used causes the different in grip.

I agree, it is not at spinny at first, the grip isn't to my liking.

Personally, I didn't insure using it, but that was just only a few mins.

I have come from Acuda S2 and I can say that in spin there is not much difference. Actually I feel better with Calibra because it gives me good blocks and lots of spin when I loop the ball.
