  1. question about equipment characteristics

    Stick with the Korbel. Stop looking at new equipment. Focus on training. If the equipment is good enough and in line with what you need, you will get used to the equipment and adapt to it. If keep on changing setups, it actually messes with your technique. In 2 or 3 years, what you use...
  2. Video Footage Safe Thread

    @Tyce ; @Zezima : I am going to assume you do not understand how this thread works. Please read the post quoted below. This thread works differently than most. Anyone can post video. But if your name is not on the list from the post quoted below which is the first post in this thread, then...
  3. Butterfly Primorac + Fastarc G1 + Rozena

    I am not sure you read above. I gave the ply construction of the Primorac Off- : and the OUTER PLIES OF THE PRIMORAC CARBON. THERE IS NO LIMBA IN A PRIMORAC CARBON. THE PRIMORAC CARBON IS ONE OF THE FASTEST BLADES EVER MADE. IT HAS ABSOLUTELY NO RESEMBLANCE WHAT SO EVER, IN ANY POSSIBLE WAY...
  4. Butterfly Primorac + Fastarc G1 + Rozena

    Faster setup but going from carbon to Primorac Off-.....something there does not compute. Still, it is worth trying. If you got the Primorac Off- and tried it with the rubbers you are thinking about trying, you would at least know for yourself if was useful for your game. It would make...
  5. Butterfly Primorac + Fastarc G1 + Rozena

    So, was this: "change my blade (3+2 hinoki)," A reference to the blade you are switching from? And, if you read in context, I said he was right that "3+2 Hinoki" was likely a reference to the Primorac Carbon because that is the construction of that blade. So, what blade where you...
  6. Butterfly Primorac + Fastarc G1 + Rozena

    My guess is, you are right, he must mean Primorac Carbon. One thing I would say, OP is thinking of equipment incorrectly. Any rubber can go with any blade. Even though people on the internet say all these things about how certain rubbers work with certain blades and certain rubbers don't...
  7. Tired and Disappointed of Boosting Hurricane 3

    But that detergent (the chemicals in the TT company rubber cleaners) will cause the molecules in your topsheet to oxidize faster than they normally would which causes the rubber in the topsheet to not stretch as much and lose its grip faster over time. Does that matter. Nah. It probably won't...
  8. Re: Forum title

    And part of my point was that we still always know what you mean, so....does it matter? We can laugh at it, but it certainly is not something to fuss over.
  9. Re: Forum title

    Probably not. Go listen to Dan's videos and read text he has written. All the mistakes I listed above are from him. :) I have joked with about his grammar. But he doesn't care and hasn't changed it. He uses possessives and reflexives incorrectly all the time. He is not using the...
  10. Re: Forum title

    Grammar on this site. lol! The pro's racket : yep. It was fun to get to try out the pro's racket. How to play like the pro's : nope. the pro's what? The apostrophe is for a possessive. Pros plural: many pros ; how to play like the pros ; But there is so much that is much worse on...

    Zeio, It has been requested that you open a new thread on this subject you seem so interested in. Open up a thread on the AI and Robotics stuff you have been posting in the General Off Topic Forum. You could migrate posts from here to your new thread if you want (copy content and post...
  12. Non-carbon fibre blades

    Glass fibre is hard. Hard. Arylate and Zylon without carbon are fairly soft. They often use arylate in the coverings of cables to charge phones and computers to make the material stronger and more tear resistant while still maintaining that soft bendable feel. It is also used in the material...
  13. Non-carbon fibre blades

    Timo Boll Spark....not sure that they still make it, but that is a blade with a construction not too different from the Timo Boll Spirit and Timo Boll ALC (those two are the same construction with different handle) but the Spark is Arylate and no Carbon. I remember playing that years...
  14. Tired and Disappointed of Boosting Hurricane 3

    Just use water. The chemicals in the dish detergent break the rubber molecules down and cause them to oxidize which causes them to lose their elasticity (ability to stretch) and their grippy quality that allows you to grab and spin the ball. Don't worry about microscopic amounts of oil from...
  15. Tired and Disappointed of Boosting Hurricane 3

    This is the reason. Some of those things you did to make the topsheet not look so bad, ruined the topsheet. A little booster accidentally put on the topsheet is not great. But it is nowhere near as bad as putting detergent or baking soda on the topsheet. Dish detergent causes the rubber...
  16. Elbow getting very sore.... would a lighter racket help?

    Something to understand, regardless of whether it is "tennis elbow" or something else, if, when you don't play for a while the pain eases up and moves towards not being as much of an issue, and then after you play for over an hour, you notice the pain is notably worse, then it is not hard to...
  17. move from TimoBoll ALC to innerfoce blade

    Is there an actual reason you guys have hijacked this thread with as many posts that have absolutely nothing to do with OP's thread as this? @joshmak10 I don't view your first post as part of the issue. You were trying to give a different idea to the OP. But you could have recommended to...
  18. move from TimoBoll ALC to innerfoce blade

    Changing the blade as a result of needing new rubbers....I get that, then you have the old setup as something you could always switch to and you could change the rubbers on it if you ever are needing to use it. If you have tried an Inner ZLC and like it, it probably would be fine. Inner ALC is...

    You should read the rules for For Sale Threads. You don't have to comment in someone's For Sale thread. You can ignore, choose not to buy, but you CANNOT MAKE COMMENTS, particularly DEROGATORY comments about the price of a blade. If nobody is interested in buying a blade for the price a...
