  1. Colorful sponges

    indeed. Although the Thibar ones are in the same vein as dignics 09c et rakza Z so they behave mostly like European rubbers. But yes slightly tacky. sorry I didn’t read your post correctly and only answered wrt the colors :)
  2. Stiga Nostalgic Offensive blade + rubbers

    Can’t tell you about specific characteristics, but I’ve been using that blade for about 2 years now and I really like it. The nostalgic VII is fine as well. ive been pairing the offensive with mantra M rubbers as well as Thibar hybrid K1 / K1 Pro and both work really well. Will be testing the...
  3. Colorful sponges

    Thibar K1 Pro (purple) most of the friendship 729 rubbers as well (particularly in the bloom series)
  4. what is the best blade I can get ?

    There is only one correct answer to this question and it is “the next one you will purchase”. Remember folks, the correct number of blades is one more.
  5. New Rubber from Stiga

    That would make sense, especially given the recent trend. Could be a genesis 3 that would be an actual hybrid this time (because it wouldn’t be fully Chinese) ? Who knows?! or yeah, an updated mantra with better spin.
  6. Wet ball - let?

    man, if the ball is wet both players are affected. I can’t see any reason why anybody would be impatient because of the other playing making sure the ball is dry...
  7. not confortable at backhand

    I have one suggestion to make that I know to be controversial but worked extremely well for me: change your FOREHAND rubber for some short pips (outside of competition season of course). You won’t be able to rely on your dominant forehands and thus will have to use your bh more. I did that for...
  8. Horrible experience by using DHS Skyline TG 3 Neo in Stiga Rosewood NCT VII

    Man! I followed the exact same logic and trained back with friendship bloom power! I won’t lie it wasn’t easy but I feel like it really helped me get back to speed.
  9. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    Actually that doctor is still using that treatment and so far the marseille area is the one where we currently have the less death/pop, so... (and it is one of our biggest cities) main issue is that doctor’s communication team suck bad and they’re using every trick they can get to get their name...
  10. Is your club closed because of corona?

    Club’s closed, country’s closed as well.
  11. Tips for disinfecting equipment and balls

    Even if that’s sound advice, the topic is still interesting, if only for arguing’s sake :-)
  12. Qatar Open 2020

    You do understand that this is because of the coronavirus scare right? Edit: failed to see that the message I’m replying to is from the previous page and had been replied to before, sorry about that.
  13. Qatar Open 2020

    Damn the matches between those two are always amazing to watch
  14. Trying new blade after Viscaria

    what's more appalling to me is that this is a thread about blades and nobody mentioned rule 20. A true loss for the gods.
  15. Stretching to avoid stress in leg muscles.

    While everything you just said is perfectly reasonable Carl, I felt like it was worded in a way that could lead some to generalize to a wrong deduction. You say « You do not want to stretch for that » and « Stretching would not be the answer »... and while that is partially true I feel like...
