Hello, I'm an amateur player and I recently bought a Stiga Clipper CR but still haven't bought rubbers. I rarely play (1-3 times a month). I was thinking about trying out anti. I've played with all kinds of rubbers before (inverted, short pips, long pips) but never anti. The barna super...

Hey, I played for about and hour with my 802 and 802-40 with the Stiga allround CR blade and I found it incredibly slow, the ball often went into the net even tho I played with a very open bat. I found it very hard to find the right speed and angle to get the balls over the net and land on the...

Hello again, just wanted to tell you that I went with the Stiga Clipper CR. It has a great black friday discount on dandoy-sports and lacquering is even free! (This is not an ad) :p It seems like a great blade for short pips, stiff, hard, fast. Can't wait to try it out!

Hello and thank you for your input! I will definitely give my 802s a try to see which one I prefer the most and then go from there. I might stick with them, although I need to buy a red one, maybe the mystery version that enoxzr recommended! The spinfire does sound like what I'm looking for...

Dude... Look what I found in a plastic bag with all my other old rubbers :D Aren't these two rubbers the exact ones you talked about? 802 and 802-40? The 802-40 has a super soft 35 degree sponge.

Hi! Yeah the sponge has really absorbed the glue and is semi glossy, it does seem very smooth tho. Just gonna double layer glue it and see if it sticks to the blade, otherwise I might need to go for the glue you linked, thanks!

Alright, will look into more Balsa blades, thanks! From what I wrote to enoxzr: "I've never tried a balsa blade and they kinda scare me tbh. I'm afraid I will hate it (played table tennis for about 7 years in my youth and always used 5/7 ply without carbon)." Do balsa blades have a distinct and...

No way, actually found the short pip rubber I used to play with back in the day and you won't believe it... You can just make out the sponge hardness (medium). Not sure about the thickness tho but it's niether max thickness or the thinnest since our trainer never recommended us buying either. If...

Hello short pip lovers! I'm an amateur player that is thinking about doing something crazy. I've never really been a fan of the looping playstyle and opening loops has never been my strong point. So why not go for short pips on both sides? I believe I've found the rubbers I wanna go for...
