  1. New sheet of Evolution MX-S feels different and harder

    As you already have bought the rubber, an easy fix is to apply a thin coat of booster. There are some points to consider when buying rubbers, if you always want to get a rubber really close to your previous one: 1. Choose the weight of the rubber. A difference of 7 to 10 gramms for an uncut...
  2. What is the best alternative for Tenergy 05?

  3. How to get better at table tennis when you have no one to play with and get competitive?

    If you want to get competitive without cimmiting to a team you can also search for Andro TT Race Tournaments. This is a tournament series with very frequent dates anyone can enter for a little fee (like 5 Euros).
  4. How to get better at table tennis when you have no one to play with and get competitive?

    Does your club have youth work? If you say your level is intermediate und you have not been trained professionally until now, the kids might have right level. And you could benefit from playing drills with them. If your club doesn't have youth work, you could search for a "Hobbygruppe" in...
  5. Does rakza 7-generation is outdated ?

    The Generation of ESN Rubbers like Rakza 7, Donic Baracuda oder Fastarc G1 is hugely popular. In my club the baracuda is by far the most played rubber starting at 1200 TTR up to 2000 TTR. If your game isn't all out offensiv with the need for power, these rubbers check all the boxes.
  6. When do you discard a 3 star ball?

    I might have a controversial opinion: Three star balls getting downgraded to youth training balls after one hard hit with the Racket edge. In 99% of the time, the ball will wobble after a edge hit (like a little un-round). If you open a old ball, you will see a lot of bright white lines...
  7. Most cushioned shoe for table tennis?

    Go for Yonex Shoes. Amazing outsole, great cushioning
  8. Which Chinese / sticky Rubber to choose

    Thank you for all your suggestions. There is almost zero Players in my club using Hybrid or Chinese rubbers (besides from our top Defender who uses Globe 999 since forever - has played Bundesliga in the 80s, is 65+ years old and is still the second strongest player at my club). I'll guess...
  9. Which Chinese / sticky Rubber to choose

    Friendship Battle 2 seems like a good offer and is available without worries here. Are all DHS TG3 the same or is there a commercial / provincial diffrence?
  10. Which Chinese / sticky Rubber to choose

    Hi Guys, I need help to chose a new rubber. Currently I am playing with Tibhar MX S in 2.0 on forehand (BH medium Pips, Blade is a Viscaria Light inspired rebuilt). I really have issues with overshooting because of the bouncy nature of the rubber. And MX S is already a relative unbouny rubber...
  11. Why can't they remove the dust from new balls?

    And then the moist dust sticks to the balls until they are played? I don't think that this is the right answer 😅
  12. How durable is Tibhar Hybrid MK?

    I haven't noticed any change after approximately 60 hours of use. Topsheet starts to show wear but grip is fine for now
  13. Share your Racket's Photo

    SDC Blades, Limba / Innegra FH and Koto / ALC BH. Fastarc G1 on FH on both Blades, Andro Blowfish and Dr. Neubauer Explosion for BH.
  14. I Played Vs World Champion Werner Schlager | Speed Glue Edition

    Dan, what an absolute banger! I love Schläger, the way he plays, the way he thinks about table tennis and I just really like his style. So much power and wo much brain combined is absolutely amazing. Thanks for brining back the speed glue sound - that's a he'll of a ride through memories👍
  15. using a razor blade to cut the rubber

    I'm also team scalpel. Takes a bit of practice, but after a few attempts your cuts will look great. And it really ticks my box if my rubbers look neat and have a clean edge 😉 Scissors only for OX Rubbers.
