If you start in the bottom team, so what? you'll be playing against everyone better than you so a good opportunity to learn. If that was me, I'd not worry about where my team place and just focus on competing to get my individual win % as high as possible across the season. Have that as your...
I've recently moved to Neo H3 on FH and absolutely love it too. I've started playing with Nittaku PK50 on by BH and get on really well with that. https://www.tabletennis11.com/other_eng/nittaku-sieger-pk50
Ah right, sorry. As i'd not properly played with it before (apart from on a mate's bat a few weeks ago) I thought i'd start with no extra booster as the Neo is pre-boosted. I did buy some booster along with the rubbers so my plan was to try a couple of layers of booster in a few months
I have the Xiom Offensive S blade listed above, and the Vega Europe DF on my backhand and love the set up. Great touch with this set up and it's not too spin sensitive, but like others mention, it's all about training and practice to neutralise spin
probably not the right place to chat camera gear at length so I'll just say that I've currently got 2 x canon 5D mkIV and a heap of L lenses that could help pay off my mortgage if I sold them all!
Said like it's a bad thing. Some people love understanding everything to with the sport, which includes geeking out on blades and rubbers. I find this side fascinating, I'm exactly the same with tennis gear and photography gear.
I have this rubber on the Xiom Offensive S and it's great. Really good touch & control of serves and can generate enough spin and speed to open up and drive. It's also great for blocks.
from what i can tell, it could be an introductory offer price as i've never used AliExpress before. I'll order a few next week and see how I get on (trying a few different rubbers on monday on friends' bats)
