  1. At What Point is an Upgrade from D09c to Z03 Justified on BH?

    So beginners can just start with any rubbers?
  2. At What Point is an Upgrade from D09c to Z03 Justified on BH?

    Only if you do not play any match or any tournament. And you know how to adjust your strikers. How many amateurs can do this?

    The problem is no one would spend several months trying a new rubber. I feel z03 is for you or not for you, from the first try. It’s not about the speed, it is about how you play table tennis. You can adjust to z03 only if you’re willing to adjust your technique, sometimes in a big way.

    Not easy
  6. Ma Long @WTTC2026: Harimoto Tomokazu is the Best Non-CNT Player.

    Well, CNT had big closed training for WTTTC. But I think he is struggling to win more often now. Let's see how he perform in the Asian game and coming WTT events.

    Well, I probably under counted the number of MLTT players. Before MLTT, I would say only about 10 players in the US are 2600+
  8. GEWO Lineup

    Gewo seems to price differently from other brands. No 30% from tt11, which I don't like.
  9. DHS Inner Carbon Blades Comparison: Sun Yingsha, Wang Chuqin, Long 5 & B2X

    I am also playing with commercial Hurricane WCQ and SYS. SYS feels a little easier to play with. It pairs well with C2/LAC. I have D09C/Rxton 1 on WCQ. So hard to say the exact difference since rubbers are different. I played with Bo carbon before, it was hard & stiff. and I would assume B2X...

    Probably only about 20-30 players are usatt 2600+ in the us including mltt players. A retired China provincial player is about this level too

    I think you played pretty good in the first match especially the third ball attack. Not sure how your opponent changed more in the following games, but he probably looped/attacked more of your serves instead of just pushing. You probably want to serve quick and long sometimes to help your short...
  12. DHS Inner Carbon Blades Comparison: Sun Yingsha, Wang Chuqin, Long 5 & B2X

    It would probably be interested in exploring the difference from HL 5H and HL 5A as they are more different. I play with HL 5 H and it is quite different from all these HL5 variants.
  13. DHS Inner Carbon Blades Comparison: Sun Yingsha, Wang Chuqin, Long 5 & B2X

    All these blades only have minor variations. The blade designs probably attract different buyers more than their functions.

    Dan and Frog are basically living on table tennis, semi pro at least. I would say average decent USATT players are probably about 1700-1900. USATT 2500+ are pro, and 2300+ usually were trained like pro or the very top amateurs. The medium USATT score of all US players (play once a week or...
