I think this is a very accurate description of the blade! I've been playing with it for a few weeks and I really like it; it can be quite fast, but I always feel it provides a lot of control. Perhaps it's due to the choice of wood (outer koto and limba underneath), or maybe it's the mysterious...

Hi, For over a year, I've been experiencing ankle pain that worsens after more intense or frequent training. So I'm looking for shoe recommendations that offer superior ankle support. Have you heard of any specific Mizuno or Butterfly models that might be a good choice? I'm currently using Stiga...

I like Nittaku equipment, but their adhesive covers aren't very good. They lose their stickiness quite quickly. Gewo's covers are much better (they stay sticky for several months).

That's right, subjective question :) You wrote that in your opinion there are blades that are equal or much better than Butterfly's Innerforces and I was curious which ones you rated higher (and why).

Please can you specify which are much better in your opinion?

Please, can you tell me if this blade is significantly slower than Innerforce ALC? 80g is the perfect weight for me, as I have some injuries and can't use heavy blade (my current blade also weighs 80g).

Thanks, the blade seems interesting indeed. And this series is manufactured in China, which is probably why its price is much lower than the HAL.

Does anyone perhaps know if there is an inexpensive Chinese blade with a construction similar to the Xiom Calderano HAL (Koto top layers and a woven fiber instead of carbon fiber)? I've been tempted by the HAL blade for a while but as I've never played with Koto I'd prefer to test such a...

Really?! I've come across an opinion that Z2 is faster than T05. It's strange that there are so many different opinions when it comes to rubbers...

Hi, Have you played bot 7p-2a and 7p-2a.carbon, or only carbon and 5p-2a? I am curious which blade provides a better feel and more control, as I have seen that opinions differ on this subject. Someone wrote that for topspin play the carbon version works better.

Thanks! Acoustic now is made in 3 versions of handle size, so there is no problem with thin handle anymore.

Has anyone played both the Nittaku Acoustic and Septear and could compare these blades in terms of control, feel, speed, sweet spot, dwell? Is indeed the feel and control of the Acoustic as exceptional as people often write? The hinoki is also often said to provide great feel, but if you...

The basic technique is to try to play lobs to the end of the table giving some tospin, which makes the ball bounce so it's harder for the opponent to play a precise smash. Of course, adding a sidespin would make it harder to pick up, but it also increases the risk of missing the table...

Speed : M3 Spin : slow hits = S3, fast hits = M3 Control : S3 Generally I liked S3 more, it's enjoyable rubber, very soft so I wouldn't use on FH for sure, but on BH for players who like very soft rubbers should be good choice. On the other hand M3 is a more recent rubber (but of course newer...

i don't know when Butterfly changed the logo but i have a 25 year old primorac and it has the old black logo on the handle so yours is definitely younger

Maybe Nittaku Fastarc C-1?

Hi, so your are not too happy with the C1? Have you already dealt with the FX-S and are you able to describe the difference? I guess that probably C1 is less bouncy than FX-S, but has better durability. I am asking because I currently have FX-S on BH and I plan to test C1 on BH at the next...
