Thanks again L-zr, I'd been playing more recently with the nexxus pro 38 the softer ones were probably a couple of seasons back now. Is moving from a 38 to a 43 going to be that much of a difference if I stick with the 1.9 which was my plan?

Mine is the ALC.s too. if we said that I was at the lower end of intermediate, but I am getting help & practice drills with higher level players each week, would you be suggesting the fx version or am I misunderstanding?

Hi L-zr I'll be pairing it with an inner force ALC and I'm leaning towards fx, I'm just worried I might make it too bouncy and really hard in the short push game? Tbh though, at my level the push game tends to be 80% or more on the bh, so maybe I am worrying too much?

Hi TTD peeps, I feel that my technique has improved and I'm finally going to give the T05 a try on my forehand. I've tended to go mid or mid soft so far (nimbus sound, gewo nexus pro 38, aurus sound etc) so I'm wondering which version of T05 I should try out as I've been told that the normal...

Hi TTD Members, I am looking for a UK seller that might have an ALC.S for sale at a reasonable price to try out ? :) Thanks for reading.

I remember when I started , I was the same... I wanted advice but my "thoughts" of my game were in a mile apart in terms of reality once I started playing at a club. Having spent the first 3 seasons ejing , there are some pieces of kit that I wish I had started out with. There are lots of...

I know the article you talk about as I read snippets of it on a UK TT equipment website... The web page I found it in was this... https://www.ttequipment.co.uk/equipment-advice/rubbers-information/rubber-types-tacky-vs-non-tacky/ That page does say the original authors website is unavailable...

Didn't Andy Smith say that the Yinhe M202 was like a "mini mj zlc"? Think it was this review here: https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/equipment/blades/17759-m202/

No worries :)

Oh I am SOOOOO sorry that I didn't answer your question directly :rolleyes::rolleyes: I was pointing in the direction of these rubber reviews as a way to explain what the rubber does and how it performs. I thought that the post by NDH might give you an idea that it is "like" an ESN style, but...

I found Jupiter 2 reviews on a UK website. You can see them here :cool: https://www.ttequipment.co.uk/product/yinhe-jupiter-2-rubber/

I moved to Jupiter 2 back end of last season on my e3/e4 blades and I found it better (for me). It was between my Tibhar Aurus Sound (faster) and Gewo Nexxus 38 (Slower) in terms of speed (J2 slightly too quick on the e4, but just right on the e3), but comparable to Nexxus 38 in terms of spin...

Adam Bobrow: 5 years from now---- He needs to be working within the ITTF, maybe helping them humanise Table Tennis and its players. This guy could really do some good things when you listen to his thoughts. He might just have an out-there idea that hits the spot :)

I've personally used the Zack and Energy x-tra when I was starting out.. Zack for me was a slower control rubber, last AGES, I took it off my racket after 4 months and it looked almost like it did when I put it on (I do try to look after rubbers too :)) Energy X-tra was a soft and bouncy all+...
