Now, for some reason, I remembered a phrase from one of my favorite writers: “If there were no politics, then many people would deservedly feel like nonentities.”

I have a slightly different blade, specifically the Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive. I recently took down my Yasaka Bolo Dragon and tried three forehand rubbers: the Victas V-15 Sticky Soft; the Stiga Helix 55; and the Dignic 09C (a very old one). Impressions: Sticky Soft is too fast for me...

Sorry to get a bit off-topic, but could you tell me the difference between the Rakza Z Extra Hard and the Rakza Z? Also, how do they compare to the Loki Arthur China (named after your front rubber?). I'm more interested in how difficult it will be to adapt to them after using purely Chinese...

I bought the Yasaka Bolo Dragon on AliExpress again—this time from a different seller. Once again, the rubber sheet arrived with very low tackiness. It lifts the ball slightly off the table, but it doesn't hold it for even a second. It seems they struggle with consistency in their product...

I played 802 and 802-40 for 3-4 months each, 2-3 times a week. I had the 802 with a stiffer rubber than the 802-40. Both were slow. I tried boosting them with the Falco Tempo Booster. It only made the sponge softer. The speed didn't change. I also tried boosting the pimples: Stiga Radical, Palio...

I've read a lot about different hard pips and played with them for about five years. I wouldn't even consider Chinese hard pips because they're slower than European ones. I've tried 802 and 802-40. Others might be faster, but judging by the reviews, they're not. If he's currently playing...

All rubber from Spinlord and Der-materialspezialist. My my favorites:

Yasaka Sweden Extra Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive 32£ ? Sanwei Fextra 7 Palio chop no.1 (it`s not a def slow blade!!!)

I bought this rubber on AliExpress. My rubber has almost no stickiness; it barely lifts the ball off the table. Judging by the reviews, mine has some kind of defect. It produces little spin. Serves have become much easier for my opponent.

Thank you. Do you know, what rakza PO thickness he uses?

Thanks for the advice. I'll have to try the P.O. rakza. Could you please tell me what blade thickness your teammate uses? And what blade did he use before? Thanks.

I tried the Spectrol S1 instead of the Stiga Radical. For me, the Spectrol S1 is much softer and has much more spin. However, compared to the Radical, it's more sensitive to spin. I also had difficulty blocking. For me, the S1 is a good rubber, but it doesn't suit my blade with a hard outer layer.
