  1. Yeah! Baby yeah! Let's go retro. Retro is the new sexy!

    Come back in a few years when you're 18.

    Well yes I do, its called science. Unless there is some science showing different colors have different effects on the ball, then it's all opinion and worthless anecdote.

    That article is an opinion piece. If there is any reason to believe what they say is true, they don't even attempt to support it with their evidence.

    I hear red cars are faster than black ones, but I don't believe it. This makes sense though. https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/red-and-black-are-different.28413/#post-393003

    I just put Sriver D13 on my 20th century Butterfly Stayer that had D13. From ahead of the curve, Desertman
  6. My Personal Guide to Rubbers on Aliexpress

    Much better than a killing machine
  7. My Personal Guide to Rubbers on Aliexpress

    Tell me there isn't really an AK47 rubber...:rolleyes:
  8. My Personal Guide to Rubbers on Aliexpress

    Oh yeah, about that W968. I should probably change that but I don't see how. When I signed up it required me to put something and I just chose whatever I saw on the first post I looked at. I have no idea what a W968 even is, but I'm pretty sure I don't have one. :) In ignorance, Desertman

    I used to be into video games but I quickly gravitated toward one or two and had no interest in the rest. So different strokes I guess

  12. Request for advice for heavy players and wide feet
