If Dima uses 2 zyre rubbers (sorry, I don't remember whether he switched on both sides or not) then against: zyre + antispin > zyre + zyre. Removing zyre from each side results in Antispin > zyre If it is one zyre and one dignics, then it is ad against dignics

Yes, different tables feels different. Some might need some time to adjust. But, rubber, blade, glue, shoes, sometimes balls, etc. are things that you have influence on. Tables are usually out of your control. You just play on tables that are available at location where you decided to play...

Part 2. I had a tournament tonight. It is interesting, but I played exactly as I must. In 95% of tournaments I lose to someone weaker than me,it is like some weird habit, I just must do it. In 10% I win against somebody I shouldn't. But I almost never play exactly as I'm supposed to. Rubber...

I didn't touch Butterfly rubbers for 15 years, but finally I tried Zyre 03 today for the first time for 1 hour, mostly multiball and 3 sets at the end. Obviously, it is too early to make final conclusions, but I can't wait 3-6 month before writing about it here :) Setup: Viscaria SALC, Zyre 03...

@Gozo Calderano , I think you forgot that playing style also matters, i.e. "ball keep coming back" is not a problem for a defender And how could you forget about the main reason: "when butterfly releases a new rubber"? ;)

But why are you playing with Zyre03 and not with Rasenter EC if you know about it?

I might be wrong, but as far as I remember host nation is one of top seeded in football, and there might be more than one host (well, they also have problem, that host nation usually loses some ranking due to not playing qualification matches and it is hard to estimate their real ranking)

Butterfly blades (at least some of them) have logo on one side and a small round transparent thing on another like this: And if I place logo on the BH side, I have this round thing on the FH side not covered by my hand. And lights sometimes refracts/reflects from it, when I perform bh loop and...

My impressions about K3 Pro durability: 1. First 2 weeks it is very cool, I'm in love with the feeling and power and spin and everything 2. Then 2-3 weeks it is still fast but a little bit less, still incredible for me 3. Then 2-3 weeks it gets hard for me, hard to lift underspin balls, easy to...

Yes

Evolution series is not limited with those two, others might have different throw angle Are you talking about MXP or about MXP 50? From what I heard MXP 50 has lower throw angle than ordinary one. Regarding personal experience, MXD was rather low as for my FH, had to keep in mind this on every...

It might not be that boring if both of you agree to play a few sets just pushing. The desire to win could make it a lot more interesting.

When I measured my TB ALC it was 1564 in most points, and got 1612 once, 1540 doesn't look like being too fast :)

I wonder whether adding lines to tt ball (or something else that would help to see actual spin) could cause stroboscopic effect when viewing it on tv/youtube. If yes, then it could make it even worse for a viewer, since spin you see will contradict with player strokes.

Answering the question, it was combination of 5-6 training videos. I doubt that I'll find them now, but they were: some Chinese guy talking about triangle when making backhand Shmyrev talking on some master class about where head of the racket must point Zhang Jike saying that he prefers side...
