Exactly. Just like with Hurricane 3, which is an inherently slow rubber, but you can add more power yourself, and thereby more precisely calibrate the amount of power on the ball.

Since the W2 is harder it inherently - by default - is a little slower. However, given that it is harder, you can add more power to the ball itself, which in turn means you can play faster shots in a more controlled manner, if you get what I mean. Softer rubbers are inherently faster than...

I agree. The Waran II is less well suited for looping. It is possible to make fast, flat fishing shots from mid-distance (you can read the full written Waran II review from my web-site). For me, it is a close-to-the-table blocking and driving rubber that still allows for excellent short game.

Haven't tried the Fextra.

In this particular video, I am using the Tibhar Bernadette Szocs Signature I. It is a little softer and mellower than my usual Samsonov Force Pro Black Edition.

Actually, in this particular instance, I used the Tibhar Bernadette Szocs Signature I. It is a little softer and mellower than the SFPBE.

At long last, and after writing many written reviews, I finally got around to review the Spinlord Waran II, a rubber that I have been playing with for the past 2-3 years, and received many questions on. I hope you enjoy it.

I will be reviewing DHS Hurricane 301 vs 301x shortly. For now, here is a visual comparison.

More feeling (= advantageous in short game), slightly longer dwell time (= more spin), and quite powerful. Pro-players have superior feeling, even with carbon blades, and therefore can use those. Many of us mortals can do better with 7-ply blades imho.

As someone who reviews a lot of equipment (and practices the scientific method professionally), I attempt to change as few variables as possible in order not to draw false conclusions. For example, when testing a blade, I will use my usual FH/BH rubbers, play against the same practice partner...

Hi, I am a life-long table tennis enthusiast and chemistry professor, hence the alias "The Pong Professor". As part of a never-ending journey towards the perfect set-up and "marginal gains", I enjoy testing out new equipment and have been writing equipment reviews for Tabletennis11.com since...

I actually shot a video on this earlier in 2020.

If your FH is strong and you do a lot of FH-FH loop rallies, I could easily see it happen. I use the more sturdy orange sponge for practice and blue sponge (leading up to and) in tournaments.

You can buy distilled water in any hardware store and in many grocery stores (e.g., near baby food) - but why? The water cannot possibly be so bad that it leaves a residue?

Since I couldn't make the password retrieval function work, I had to create a new profile. I have played 14 + 6 years. Located in the Pacific Northwest. 2017 US Open O40 doubles win. I review equipment for TT11.

The sedentary lifestyle (working from home) has resulted in +10 lbs for me as well, despite being able to play TT 3-4 times weekly !!
