  1. Whats the best and worst combos you’ve tried equipmentwise

    Best: Stiga Dynasty Carbon, FH: Xuperman Powerplay X (if only it were durable :cautious:), BH: Hurricane 3 37° You cant get any more spin than this. Worst: Yinhe T-11s, FH/BH: Andro GTT 45 No spin at all - no topspin possible. The ball just flew straight ahead like a beam...
  2. Big Upset with W968 Golden Grand Slam Version

    Or you can also use hairspray for temporary sealing. (not a big fan of this) The best method for me so far: quickly apply the sealant to the blade and wipe it off with a lint-free cotton cloth so that only a very thin layer remains.
  3. New blade to be released by Stiga this month

    I can confirm that. I briefly played with one that weighs 90 g. I find the thickness of only 5.6 mm strange compared to a Dynasty Carbon which is 5.9 to 6 mm thick. It is definitely slower than a Dynasty Carbon. It is more linear, but not nearly as spin-friendly. I didnt like it at all.
  4. Zyre 03 Rubber Review with Dimitrij Ovtcharov!

    For Gods sake, why would anyone do that? If any rubber doesn't need boosting, it's the Zyre 03.
  5. Butterfly Zyre 03

    I played with the Zyre 03 2.7 mm for about two hours on a Stiga Inspira Plus blade. It is slightly faster than a Dignics 09c. It does not have the pronounced catapult effect of a Tenergy 05. Unfortunately, I haven't played with the Dignics 05 in ages, so I can't compare the two. The dwell time...
  6. Can anybody recommend a blade that is both controllable at the table and fast further from the table?

    This. My blade weighs 91g and nothing comes close to it in terms of control close to the table and power away from the table. Maybe a Carbonado 45 or 145 (90+ g).
  7. I need a clear answer, when receiving, when does the ball has LESS spin? Off the bounce? Or after it reached its apex?

    It is incorrect that the ball loses a significant amount of spin over time. Over the distance of the table, the ball loses about 5% of its spin and 35% of its speed (spinsight measurements). I think the reduced speed is the reason why people believe that the ball loses a significant amount of...
  8. Butterfly Zyre 03

    German MRSP: 89.90€
  9. Tired and Disappointed of Boosting Hurricane 3

    I have had a different experience. I once played a new sheet of Hurricane 3 for two days for eight hours each. After that, the surface was completely oxidized. However, if I place a rubber protection film over the rubber during each little break, not much oxidation occurs. So it seems to make a...
  10. What is the best table tennis ball for matches?

    DHS DJ 40+ (Tokyo) are the best balls. (Doube Fish PAR40+, GEWO ULTRA SLP, Nittaku Premium are also good)
  11. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    I have now played about 5 hours with the Telson 100 on the backhand and the top sheet is separating slowly from the sponge - quite clearly at the edge + bubble. Strange, I never had this problem with my two sheets of LAC.
  12. Stiga Surge Hybrid Carbon

    Its a shame. It will not be launched worldwide, it's unique to the Chinese market. But why?
  13. Sanwei shoes - order issue

    The same goes for me. Many thanks @Andrea Jiang
  14. Sanwei shoes - order issue

    They wrote me the same as you. Pay 80 usd for the return shipment or take care of it yourself. I am still hoping for a better solution.
  15. Sanwei shoes - order issue

    The same thing happened to me. The shoe size information on the website is wrong. There is a note on the shoe itself with the correct shoe sizes. It also matches my measurement. The mistake is clearly on the Sanwei side.
