Uh oh, scary stuff now

Doing burnout competitions with those dry-boosting rollers or something

Was that an illegal serve called out? Truls looked not to throw it from an open palm in the replay and tilted it vertically. I thought they didn't bother umpiring serves with how hidden some are

It's clearly a sign to EJ even harder to get used to every single possible blade/rubber combo, so a difference doesn't feel off!

Never thought I'd root for North Korea in anything but here we are.. I don't have any streams available here, I'm following along the points in text, but it seems like they're hanging on for now! Well heck I jinxed it 😂

I've been having the thoughts of treating my office to a pair of rackets that could be an upgrade over their bunch of many many many months old premades (for some it looks like the rubber is detaching from the sponge lmao) and maybe tease them into EJing as well! Thankfully for my wallet, most...

I've got a cheap Tibhar-branded snapoff knife, currently has been used for 6 rubbers without snapping any parts off and is still pretty decent. I tend to start with lighter cuts to guide the deep one through though, dunno how that changes things, but I've had no issue other than skill issue yet!

I currently have a little bit of edge tape on either side of the bottom half of my rubber, around the area where the rubber text is. For me it's purely to mask and aid my less than perfect glue job in those corners, though maybe it might be from the cutting pulling it off a bit or something.

The last couple of weeks I've started tagging along the weekly practice of some local players to start improving somewhat instead of just the office playing, and it's been great. Long way to go, since there's no coach (just players practicing against each other), but it's been a lot of fun. I do...

Yeah, coming up with new names is a struggle for me too whenever I make up stories. Why'd they make a sponge out of this bouncy racket covering material though? You appear to be bouncing more than the superball today! Anyway I'm going to boost the heck out of this fancy piece of equipment...

I want to put little googly eyes on each pip. When you stare into the abyss (of pips), the abyss stares back at you.

Well that was quite the show of force. If I've gotten the rankings right, after the update on Tuesday Felix should still be ahead by 7 points? Very little in it between those two now.

That third game was mighty fun to watch. Through #11, #9, #7 to face #5, just needed two more players afterwards to finish the statistic.

There's like a billion different kinds of rubbers out there, some might like the G09C, some don't and prefer something else. Looking at other comments in this thread I have the feeling it does induce mixed feelings, but it is one of many - the only thing that matters is to find the right setup...

Damn, there go my hopes for a tacky antispin!
