Ok so while working on my serve the other day it occurred to me for the first time that I don't know exactly where to look when i'm serving. It didnt bother me before but now that ive thought of it, its driving me nuts. I play tennis, and obviously on serve you look at the ball the whole way...

yeah that sounds really solid- i've loved everything ive tried from xiom. if you like to play further away is the vega euro not lacking a bit of punch though? To be fair I dont have a ton of experience with vega euro and none at all with vega pro, but my favorite rubber i've ever played with...

so i'm pretty inexperienced with table tennis at a competitive level as of now, so could someone give me a run down on what is so special about table tennis shoes specifically? I've played tennis my whole life and i've always just played table tennis in my tennis shoes. My running shoes would...

I cant say i've used those exact blades but maybe my experience with something similar could help. I used to use the timo boll ZLF and now have switched to hayabusa Z. On each blade i've used xiom sigma 2 euro max. The major difference that I notice is that while the hayabusa blade is more...

I am only an 1800 US rated player so take my advice with a grain of salt, but I have always loved my Timo Boll ZLF. I havnt used 05 or 64, but I loved t80 on both my backhand and my forehand. I would reccomend it as more of a backhand rubber, so maybe 05 forehand 80 backhand? Honestly you...

thanks guys, I appreciate the input. What did you mean when you said too heavy Tony? Im using max thickness on both sides already and the bluefire is a pretty hefty rubber. Is S2P just unusually heavy? And what about Omega 4 Pro? From the looking around i'd done it seemed like it would be...

hey guys! I have finally found a rubber I love for my forehand- Sigma 2 Europe, but am not totally satisfied with my backhand which is bluefire Jp03. Its getting about that time to order new rubber and I was wondering what Xiom rubber you would recommend for backhand? I loop from both sides...

Hey guys, I've been using Donic bluefire jp03 on the backhand of my timo boll ZLF. I like it alright, but not as much as I was expecting. What bluefire, or any Donic rubber as I've always liked their products, would you guys reccomend for max thickness on backhand. I am a two sided looper and...

what is the name of the song that comes after remember the name? Sick video by the way.

Sigma 2 Euro from xiom. I didnt find bluefire jp03 to be especially spinny

I dont know how it would work for backhand serving as thats not something I ever do, but for everything else youve said T80 works extremely well. I havent owned another kind of tenergy, but Ive hit with 05, 05fx and 64 and I agree that it has the best characteristics from each kind. My only...

hey no problem. Its for sure a better backhand rubber. Good luck with your tournament and your rubbers!

Ok, I dont know how that ranks you versus me, but as a 1700-1800 USA player I would imagine you are probably more advanced/technically sound. I use the xiom sigma 2 euro rubber, which by all accounts is more unforgiving than the vegas. I have also very briefly used a friends vega euro and I...

thats great. "yeah, i knew EXACTLY where you were going to hit that"- waldner to boll

Hey guys! Just some food for thought, who are you alls' favorite players and playing styles? I really enjoy timo boll and the european playing style. I think it is more fun to watch when players are willing to use their backhand effectively as well as their forehand, so I also really like...
