So, what are you saying a 1.7-1.9mm rubber is intended to be for thickness? Are you saying the 1.4-1.7mm is intended to be 1.6mm?

So, I guess the question that I'm curious if anyone has the answer to is, if Spectol Blue is listed as 1.7-1.9mm how thick are they technically trying to make the rubber? In a perfect world with no defects what would would the thickness be? Logic says 1.8mm plus or minus .1 but if that is the...

Thats very interesting. I appreciate everyones help. A rough range estimate is what I was thinking may have been the meaning but I was hoping the answer would be different. I guess I will need to buy the specula and hope it comes as a 1.7mm on the lower end rather than a 1.9mm. How weird they...

Last time I use to play table tennis seriously I never noticed rubbers were labeled 1.7-1.9mm They were only 1.7mm or 1.9mm. Can someone please explain to me what it means if I am buying a rubber that is listed as 1.7-1.9mm. Both of my old rubbers flarestorm and flarestorm II have 1.9mm printed...

Thanks sooooo much for all the helpful advice and sources. Seems how you have been so helpful I have one other question. :) I'm looking for a stiff rubber with a low throw angle. (Pips out obviously) Do you have any thoughts. Maybe you or someone knows handy sites that display stats on different...

Do you have any thoughts on Speedy PO? Im looking at the reviews and stats on it at revspin and I feel like it may be something I want to try out. I'm looking for a harder rubber with good pace, control...I'm not worried about a ton of spin at the moment. I fell like this is the point where...

You don't happen to want to sell yours do you. ;) I have been looking for it for a couple hours since "Lasta" recommend it but I can't find one.

Thanks for all the amazing and valuable info. Have you used any of the blades above. If I'm coming from previously using the Butterfly X Star would one of them be a better blade to go to...meaning not as big of a skill level jump. Going from a X star to the fastest blade available may not be...

You are correct, I am playing pips out on each side. I prefer to go on the offense immediately and win the point... I'm not a defensive player and I don't rely on spin much at all. I dint have any problems with the Butterfly XStar but I'm hoping to make a few tweaks for the better. Such as...

Is that better? Im brand new and have no idea what I am doing.

​I’m Looking for help picking out a blade and some rubber advice. About 10 years ago I got really serious and decided to buy a blade and rubbers. I was advised to start with the butterfly xstar.I chose this as my blade and I have really enjoyed the pips out my whole life so I went with a...
