  1. Need new FH rubber to my Stiga Cybershape Carbon

    It’s going to take a long time to adapt from a springy tensor rubber to a tacky Chinese style rubber. Not worth it in my opinion. Just fix your technique or use a slow rubber like Xiom Vega Intro (maybe even Butterfly Rozena).
  2. Alternative to Gewo Hype XT Pro 50

    JOOLA Dynaryz AGR is a lot easier to use than Rhyzer Pro 50 (softer topsheet). Faster too. (I have used both rubbers a lot). Currently I’m using Dynaryz ACC on backhand and loving the balance of speed and control. But, if you want more speed then use AGR.

  6. Looking for a similar blade to Stiga Azalea offensive

    The Azalea Offensive seems to be sold out at every store I’ve looked at. Can you guys recommend a similar blade? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  9. Confident when training, but s**t when playing

    My biggest problem during real matches vs training is that I get too nervous and rushed rather than staying calm, relaxed, and waiting for the proper timing to hit the ball. Basically I start getting anxious and swinging too early at the ball. It takes some time to just get used to things...

  12. Tactics against short pips penholder

    I’m struggling against a middle aged traditional penholder using short pips. His athleticism is decent because he is able to make quite a few step around forehand shots. I’m a typical two wing looper 1700~ rating. Any basic suggestions? Which serves/placement should I avoid? Which should I...

  14. Anyone using a Nobilis with tacky or semi-tacky rubber?

    I acquired a sheet of Dynaryz ZGR very cheap and want to try it (liked it when I briefly tried it out on someone else’s blade). The JOOLA Nobilis is 3 + 2 blade with 1.2mm on hick Hinoki outer plies and ZLC. (Not a conventional tacky rubber looping blade). Do you guys see any issues with...
  15. need help with my decidophobia

    If you want something in the 50 degree hardness range I’d go for DIGNICS 80 or 05 since it tends to have more spin. Personally I love JOOLA Dynaryz AGR, but it’s extremely fast and it only works for me as a forehand rubber.
