  1. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    You clearly don't if you think "And LP allows a player to produce heavy underspin from a regular topspin stroke hitting over the ball." is true. Naturally you think long pips are deceptive when you don't know what they're actually doing.
  2. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    Unsurprisingly one of the most outspoken critics of long pips doesn't even know how they work lmao
  3. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    It's closer to dead/light topspin. She used 755 which is grippy enough to impart its own spin. The reason Rich can do this (as someone who has played against him) is because his Mark V is worn to hell. It's almost anti-like. They are completely dead, which is why he hits the ball the racket...
  4. Butterfly to relaunch custom-made blade service.

    As many here know, Butterfly discontinued its custom blade service in 2016 after they found people were abusing the service to resell blades at marked up prices. The service is set to return this Spring, with new changes to the system. Here are some key details: 1. All blades, including...
  5. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    It clearly does have to do with losing since you are literally so scared of losing and insecure against someone who plays differently than you, that you want them segregated from you in competition.
  6. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    By definition that means they aren't better. If you don't know how to play against long pips, especially now with the larger plastic ball, ban on frictionless long pips, the aspect ratio rule, and the pimple density rule, I don't know what to tell you other than you simply aren't good enough. If...

    Wang Yidi and Wang Manyu both lost 4-0 to Sun Yingsha. Time to retire?
  8. What is the best ESN Hybrid rubber for FH?

    I'm not going to say it's definitely the lowest, but I do find the Codexx SuperSelect to be quite low. I've written elsewhere on the forum about the rubber so I won't write a lot here, but it's been my favorite rubber to use thus far out of ever next gen ESN rubber. Can't imagine using anything...
  9. Nittaku New Products 2024

    No it's a thing in Japan called "large ball" that is primarily played by the elderly. It's been a thing there for many many years.
  10. WTT Singapore Smash 2024 3/7-3/17

    One thing she did really well was draw in Wang with the drop shots and forcing her back and forth and drawing soft pushes back. China's going to have to develop a long pips blocker because this is a really surprising amount of difficulty for them.
  11. Stiga DNA Hybrid H or XH vs Other Hybrid Competitors

    V>20 is not tacky at all. Great rubber for sure, as it's extremely well balanced in spin, speed and control. As the description says, it does feel much, much softer than 52.5 deg. I'd suggest putting it on a harder blade (or at least not a soft one). I currently have an old sheet on my Viscaria...
  12. Stiga DNA Hybrid H or XH vs Other Hybrid Competitors

    I've used Dragon Grip and currently use Codexx SuperSelect (which is a hybrid). The Codexx is very lightly tacky. It can hold onto a plastic sheet for protection, but it can't pick up a ball, even for a second. Dragon Grip on the other hand is super tacky, and I agree it's tackier than newer H3s...

    Miwa is absolutely cooking Chen Meng right now. Chen looks pretty rattled at the moment.
