I would be interested to learn what you think about the difference between the G1 and Glayzer. Both are very good rubbers, and it is really just going to come down to what feels right for you. I personally would go with the G1 over the Glayzer. The Glayzer is a good rubber without doubt. But...

I have used the Genextion on both FH and BH and have limited experience with the D05. I guess I would explain it to be similar to the Fastarc G1 is to the T05. D05 is a hard rubber that feels hard and is ideal for very advanced players who can get the most out of the sponge. The Genextion is...

Yes this is a thing with the G1. It is a very good rubber that is particularly great at high energy rallies and it does not react to spin compared to the performance output. The trade off is these rubbish balls situation as it does not grip as well and can slip, particularly in humidity. For me...

Haha yes this is a funny video. He does really good videos this guy but this was one of those match for him.....we have all left a match internally blowing up like this. I agree about having to play weird and what you don't like. I think it is a mistake of players who avoid that difficult long...

Yep, and because of this they keep buying more and more advanced gear and all MAX to the point that it is holds then back.

Maybe worth just randomly playing at these other clubs to see if there is that player who can share some wisdom or small corrections. Keep an eye out for that player who might not be as good as you in ratings etc but knows the game. Sometimes coaches are not necessarily particularly high rated...

Is it the only club in the area? Have you directly asked the better players if they could spend 10 minutes helping you?

Bad edging tape is a thing. I have had one that was insane with strong glue and a nightmare to remove. Was worried about damaging the blade. I am aware that some players put a thin layer of their rubber glue along the edge before putting edge tap on. I can't vouch for this as I have never done...

That's not good. It appears too many clubs are overly focused on internal competition/fixture over the true competition of open tournaments or leagues.

T05...1.9mm and all your problems will go away. H3 is all about power transfer from your own body as where the general esn rubber is more about helping you generate power. This changes your technique as you will need more body engagement with the H3. IMO you want the rubber that helps....T05...

I have had a casual hit with the Battle 3 and thought it was a much easier to use version of the H3N. I can't confirm if it wasn't boosted or not as I just had a hit to see what it was like...but it felt good.

Always been curious about this rubber..I would assume Nittaku would only allow higher quality rubbers to help avoid the inconsistency you can get with H3s.

It is the T05 time!!!!! I have just transitioned from the D09C, to the G1 and now I am new to the T05...finding it ridiculously easy to attack and understand all the talk about it. I went 1.9mm so I still have control as I adjust to catapult sponge. Since they are serving half long, you should...

Or science school. I recommend breathing on your rubber and rubbing it with your palm and reporting back if the rubber stays frictionless due the moisture...or does it start to grip again as you rub it...but hey, you keep having problems with the cold. That is on you, not me.

Fascinating....the person who has problems in the cold....telling a person who doesn't they are wrong.....Basic rubber science says otherwise. I am going to leave this with the you not solving the problem with top pro players in the world are certainly not breathing on their rubbers and running...

Lol, couldn't be any more wrong. Slow breath (slow allows body temperature transfer from the lung to your breath) with the naturel moisture creates a temperature transfer particularly for soft rubbers. Then the friction heat created from your hand. On a car tire...no, but on soft rubbers...yes.

T05. Everything else will just be a step down to your D05 and frustrate you IMO..if you are worried about it being bouncy, just get thinner sponge. If you are good enough to use the D05, you shouldn't have problems with a thinner sponge T05 when tired.

Just use your breath and hand cleaning method between every point to keep the rubber warm for each point.

I see others have said it but warm your rubbers up. Low humidity will give your rubbers more grip but outright cold is not good for your rubbers performance. Warming up is also key but you can get sports gear designed to keep your body warm as well without overheating. These type of compression...
