A colleague of mine has a few different Apolonia ZLC blades and says all of them feel differently. He plays 2nd Bundesliga, so I guess he knows his equipment well. I experienced this as well with my Franziska ZLC...

Best: Franziska ZLC FH: Dignics 09c BH: Nuzn 45

Not really. My blades are usually around 85g and with T19 and Nuzn 45 (+ edge tape) my entire racket weighs 180g. I guess cut to a Franziska ZLC blade, its around or below 45g. I didn't play with Nuzn 48, I guess the 45 variant offers more forgiveness and is easier to play with. I really like...

Hello, there is a thread asking the same question: https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/rasanter-r47-vs-r48.28017/ The hardness is not the only difference between these two rubbers, please have a look at the link I posted.

I used to play with it, it is balanced very nicely and not head heavy at all.

I know of a semi-pro player (2nd Bundesliga) who is using T19 on both sides (Apolonia blade). Our coach and also a player for the 2nd Bundesliga of my club is playing with T05 and T64, while being sponsored by Butterfly since he was a kid. Question being, why not play Dignics or Zyre if Tenergy...

I ordered two Yasaka rubbers, one pair of Nittaku shorts. The total came up to 90 eur, shipping was maybe 10-15, customs free paid via DHL was 20-30 eur. Basically it took longer and was more expensive than if I ordered directly in German shops. Customs is really ugly in Germany, idk what it...

Donic and Joola would like to enter the chat

Lind is a great player, yes. But then Butterfly has like 5 oder 6 better players signed, that's what I meant. Zhang Jike is probably still quite popular in China, even though he had some scandals. Usually companies sign active and promising players, not retired and scandalous superstars with...

What do you mean? It’s sub 50€ for example in Czechia. Vega series is cheaper and good enough for most players if you‘re after that.

If the rumors are to be true, what a shame for Xiom. It's similar to Donic, no real superstars if Hugo leaves. Is Butterfly/DHS/Tibhar paying that much more? I would certainly love a H968, although I quite dislike DHS politics regarding provincial/national versions of equipment (even boosters...

Any other suggestions? Rakza Z would probably be a bit too heavy I feel.

I live in East Germany. 1. Usually some German online shop for rubbers and glue. I don't use booster but bought some a while ago on Aliexpress. I think tt11 has good prices and ships worldwide, probably the way to go for you. There are German shops which ship internationally as well, it costs...

I still have one more sheet of Glayzer 09c for my backhand. I didn't even know its ESN hardness was around 50-52°. Normally I played medium hard rubbers on my backhand (such as Xiom Omega 7 eur or Joola Tronix Acc). I am doing quite well with my backhand right now. I am "swapping" due to EJ...

I have those rubbers in my house already, so no additional money wasted. I just wanted ot know if the feeling changes drastically or not, that's all.
