Hi all, As promised, I had another coaching session today at ebatt and so will aim to get some similarly edited footage to last time uploaded tomorrow. Question - is this still the best thread to do so? I know there was interest in seeing progress from professional coaching for a 6 month...

One more bump before it goes in the cupboard 😆

To be honest this was the beginning of 'major surgery' on my forehand, from top to bottom as I was hitting everything either very flat (slap), or, cocking my wrist and flicking to achieve some topspin with nothing else moving. This exercise was aiming to focus on footwork, rotation, brushing...

Some edited footage from my first coaching session today with a focus on FH. I took up TT around 5 months ago, coming from a significant tennis background as documented on another thread. FH has been a major weakness compared to my BH which is pretty strong.I appreciate a couple of points: This...

Bump. Really surprised this hasn't been snapped up to be honest!

Deposit not received. For sale again.

Sold, pending deposit.

I can relate to everything you're saying here, 100%. Do you play with the same sponge thickness across the different rubber types? I'm reluctant to drop under 2.0 but still want the harder feeling.

Makes total sense. I also noticed BH flick was much harder than with both the TB and even the cheap Bribar with 1.5 Friendship rubbers on. Does make me wonder if I have a preference (how aware of it I am consciously is another thing) for harder rubbers.

Purchased November 2022 new - used only a handful of times. I've changed to an all-wood blade as documented on this forum. Supreme value at £170. Note: the blade alone in the UK will set you back £170 whilst the 2.0 T05 rubbers are £60 each side. That's £290. I'm in the South East...

I got some brief warm-up footage today, will upload tomorrow. In terms of the setup: Played with it today and the blade is very nice. I did notice however that the Pro (in particular) and Europe rubbers still present much more of this spring or ‘catapult’ effect and obvious bounce than I was...

It’s arrived! It feels great in the hands. The grip (for me) is actually much more pleasant than the TB. Does feel slightly more head heavy than I expected - combination of the handle and rubber weight I assume. Rudimentary test at home tells me the Pro and Europe runners will be plenty spinny...

Well, I had planned to have uploaded some footage of me playing with the new setup this week having order it 20/11 from TT11, however after issues with both the company and DHL this hasn't been possible. Hopeful I'll actually receive the equipment this week before 02/12. Not ideal but it is what...

That's interesting. I've really decided to just adopt a test & learn mentality. There's simply too much equipment and too many choices out there. I'm starting off with the 2.0 on each side( both Pro and Europe) whilst I've also ordered Max in each rubber to enable a quick 'upgrade' later on...

Hi Amir, I am in the process of moving away from high end equipment too (Timo Boll ALC with Tenergy 05 2.1mm on each side). I've gone with the Yasaka Sweden Extra all wood blade, paired with Xiom Vega Pro (FH) and Europe (BH) rubbers at 2.0mm. It arrives this week. I'll be posting my...
