Looking for the old Stradivarius that has the black and red "Viscaria" handle design. ST handle prefered. PM if you want to sell.

I've been playing a V series for 4 months now and I think it's great. Power and touch. Can't go wrong with it mate.

I realized I typo'd "World". Anyone know how to edit that?

I highly suggest you try the Vans Ultra Range shoes here. They were never built for our game but I’m telling you they are the best…bonus: street cred.

Yeah man. I’m definitely tournament oriented. I guess I just need to give it time. So frustrating right now though.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm more TPB and have solid services and returns. Going shakehand, I only have an underspin serve, no topspin or pendulums. I realize now it's just going to take a lot longer than I thought to get there. What I need to avoid now is buying new equipment thinking...

I’ve always been a penhold player and recently (3 months now) I started getting coached. After about 6 sessions, my coach said I should try switching to shakehand. We gave it a try and I’ve taken to it in lessons pretty well. Forehand and backhand have more power/spin, starting to get better...

Blade: Donic Burn All+ (Has anyone else in the history of TT ever used this blade? Or am I the only person who's ever bought one?) FH: D09c 1.9 (Love this rubber. Worth the price.) BH: Bluestorm 2.1 (Still on the fence with this one. Had great reviews but I'm not vibing it yet.) I also play...

I bought this rubber 6-7 months ago (just to see how it played) and at first I liked it. Has good control with some speed close to the table. Perfect for close to the table play and blocking as mentioned by everyone. I also have D09c on the other side of the blade and I much prefer it over the...

Update - Had a pro look at the setup. He said the weight is definitely from the sponges. Again, I used max sponges on both the 7 and Z. I balanced out the weight with some grip tape and now it feels good. For the record if anyone cares, Rakza 7 Max and Z Max are heavy. Awesome rubbers...

Weighed it a few times and it's accurate. It's definitely the Rakza's that's making this bat husky. I just need to balance it out and use this bat as a trainer. Boo.

It sorta felt like an issue from the first time I used it. Was thinking it would be one of my lightest set-ups but turned out to be the heaviest. So weird. Did not expect the rubbers to be so heavy.

It's definitely head heavy. I'm Penhold grip so with the slightly shorter handle, you can imagine how light it is. Maybe I should use some grip tape to add weight to the handle?
