  1. Yinhe Pro 03 (Inner Koto blade)

    Ilya Ronin, a russian youtuber who reviews table tennis equipment has also just bought it and said he will upload his review on YT soon. I will write the summary here when he does it
  2. How to navigate through Stigas line of 5-ply allwood blades?

    I wonder why do you think cybershape is only worth in carbon? I just saw a review a week ago, one dude compared 3 different cybershapes: CWT carbon, Carbon, and the wood version and he enjoyed wood the most. He said it didn't lack the speed at all and the control was better.
  3. China National team did suffer badly over high air humidity.

    Astana is the least humid city you can find. You have to go there to experience it first hand, it's super dry climate unlike in China.
  4. Palio AK47 appreciation topic

    Pretty different I would say, it all comes down to a personal preference, if you like harder and tacky Chinese rubbers or not.
  5. Palio AK47 appreciation topic

    I would have AK47 yellow both sides, they are pretty light and have less speed, higher throw angle than blue or red so they'r easier to learn how to spin. They will resemble modern ESN rubbers. If you like the feel of Loki Rxton then you should look for something similar to Chinese tacky rubbers...
  6. Sanwei Fextra 5 Classic First Playing Report

    your subjective feeling. Some people don't feel it at all, others are quite sensitive and can feel it upon the contact with the ball
  7. Yinhe Pro 03 (Inner Koto blade)

    I wonder if it's any different from 05. I also wonder how kevlar carbon is different from arylate carbon or zylon for that matter.
  8. Upgrade from Xiom Vega Europe?

    Tenergy 19. Has the same feeling, control, a little more speed and a lot more spin. Glayzer would be a lot harder compared to xiom vega europe, if you enjoy hard rubbers on your backhand then it's a good option, it can't produce as much spin as t19 though
  9. SANWEI NOVA Carbon is coming!

    hello, can you please answer about sanwei vita alc? What is the layer composition in this blade? What is the total thickness of the blade? Does it have vibrations?
  10. Loud rubbers recommendation

    tenergy 19 has that clicking sound when you engage the sponge few more that might have but have to be tested: tibhar fx-p, tenergy 25/25fx
  11. New blade - Stiga Pure

    horribly thin handles with extremely top heavy balance. For very specific type of players.
  12. Which Hurricane 3 version?

    someone on this forum posted that neo is just preglued
  13. Has anyone tried The DHS PG5X?

    korbel in ST feels thicker for sure but pg5x I think there is only FL. both FLs are thin as hell, I can't say which one is thicker because both are uncomfortable and too thin to my taste
  14. Rubbers for OVTCHAROV INNERFORCE ALC blade

    Couple days ago I borrowed two ovtcharovs to compare. One had D09C+D05 the other one T19+Bluestorm Z3. I liked the second one a lot more because it had better balance (not head heavy at all like the one with dignics) and more controllable to me, I overshot a lot less with tenergy and bluestorm z3
  15. Has anyone tried The DHS PG5X?

    Not much difference with korbel, a little more vibration/ball feel I would say. It's pretty fast and flexible. The handle is pretty thin. Timo boll alc is a lot stiffer, has less vibrations/muted feel, faster, produces less of an arc when looping.
  16. Best cheap defensive blade?

    I guess it depends what you compare the 980 to. 980 was the softest compared to all the ones I've mentioned above, it was flexible and soft which can be harder to control. There are few different DefPlays, I was talking about V3 specifically, that one is amazing, can't say anything about classic...
  17. Which of the 4 Innerforce ALC blades is the best?

    D or C. If I have to stick for life it means that over time I will improve, as I improve and get older I won't have to rely on my physiques but rather than on the speed of the blade, therefore Ovtcharov is the best bet. It is just slightly slower than viscaria the other ones are just way too slow
  18. Best cheap defensive blade?

    980 is a very soft blade, too soft to my taste. Koji Matsushita is a lot harder but I hate the handle, it's too slim and slippery
  19. Best cheap defensive blade?

    Having tried quite a few: Yinhe 980, Donic Defplay Senso V3, Victas Koji Matsushita Defensive, Butterfly Joo Sae Hyuk, Butterfly Diode V, Yinhe 980xx pro I could say that I liked Donic Defplay Senso V3 the most because the outer layer is oneigre? And it has unique feel due to hollow handle...
