  1. Any news and info on Zhang Jike's New donic bluegrip j line?

    That's the optimization problem... Everyone has limits: compactness of stroke/minimal time to execute a proper stroke, minimal time to cover distance x left/right, minimal time to cover distance y forward/backward (usually not equally fast) and so on. In this case the change is usually (from...
  2. Any news and info on Zhang Jike's New donic bluegrip j line?

    Is your coach really sure about that? When testing some setups recently I had issues getting spin in my loops with the heaviest setup. Even when playing regular drills. Fix: step back a bit. There is simply a lower limit on how compact I can execute a proper loop given a certain setup weight...

    I thought that all the AI companies fed their systems with YouTube videos... Maybe not...
  4. ITTF and FIT joined forces to ensure fair play.

    That's why the ITTF switched from celluloid to ABS, allowed carbon fiber blades and tries to ban boosters that can be used to extend the service life of ESN rubbers scnr
  5. Liang Jingkun signs with LOKI

    There's not much to do ;) just let a ball drop on the blade and use something like Spectrum Analyze https://apkpure.com/spectrum-analyzer/com.raspw.SpectrumAnalyze (not maintained anymore) or FFTWave for Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.gr.java_conf.ensoftware to measure...
  6. Researching the DHS Hurricane rubbers

    Normal H8 all have the same #25 sponge. H8-20 has the #20 sponge that all orange sponge H3s (neo and non-neo) have. @Vanilla: I have no idea why and how they came up with this meaning of vanilla but here it is used as in ordinary, conventional, average or standard.
  7. TT shops in Germany and blade recommendations

    Butterfly blades and rubbers are only sold (with very few exceptions) in Butterfly stores over here https://de.butterfly.tt/butterfly_stores
  8. Just Butterfly Glayzer (on backhand)

    A normal Sriver was 37 DM in 1985/1986 1) which were according to the Deutsche Bundesbank (central bank) 37 * 1.07 or 39.59 Euro in 2024. A Tackniness C or D was 44 DM back than or 47.08 Euro in 2024. 1) https://forum.tt-news.de/showpost.php?p=870836&postcount=24 2)...
  9. Just Butterfly Glayzer (on backhand)

    I wonder why the normal Glayzer is that heavy (Inspira Plus should have a normal head size) because the two Glayzer 09C (both red, both 2.1mm) that I had were much lighter. 99g to 100g incl. packaging and cut to normal/Butterfly head size 43g to 44g
  10. KTS Foundation blades

    KTS is just a brand of Tmount https://ttmount.com/category/kts-shakehand/46/ and as far as I can see these blades are all made in China instead of Korea (presumably by 729 that still sell some older KTS blades http://en.729sports.com/product/24.html)
  11. KTS Foundation blades

    Listed under main brand/Tmount Spinfactory only sells the GF.K and GF.K Ebony (currently for 89.90 Euro), Maybe they can get the other blades too... https://www.spinfactory.de/tischtennis-hoelzer/tischtennis/tmount.html Tmount ships to e.g. Germany but they charge $34.70 for shipping...
  12. What song are u listening to now?

    Not a specific one. Arte (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arte) made the whole "Black Sabbath - The End: Live in Birmingham" concert from 2017 available a couple of months back.
  13. What song are u listening to now?

    Rest in Peace Ozzy 🤘
  14. i dont think chinese rubbers do most people any favours

    Sound matters... Hit than brush is the more reliable way https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/brushing-the-ball-is-useless-world-champion-fangbo‘s-training-class.33665/ but "pure" brush loops are definitely useful and sometimes the only possible way. Problem is that the thinner the...
  15. What are the differences of Hurricanes that are Provincial and ones that are National?

  16. DHS fans unite!

    Is the H8-20 still weighing as much as the normal H8 or is more like H3?
  17. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Maybe I should have asked for a specific weight (range)... got 98g (not oversized just 15.4 mm x 14.9 mm, 6 mm)
  18. Hurricane 3 arc + outer ALC blade

    Did you switch directly from Rakza Z to H3(N)? Than it might just take a bit longer to get used to. Had the same issue when trying Battle 2 instead of my usual H3(N)s: many loops clipped the net and some went straight into the net before I got used to it. Same but in reverse when trying Rakza Z...
  19. Damien Éloi: Are the top players’ rubbers different?

    That's not the point. These top 10 pros can and will win the matches that they should win with stock rubbers but they might struggle (more or less) when facing opponents closer to their level. I see and feel this even on my level: commercial vs. provincial vs. national H3(N) makes a difference...
  20. Damien Éloi: Are the top players’ rubbers different?

    Just to clarify: That's what DHS wrote and Google translated. I think the Formula 1 analogy might be closer to reality than other comparisons. 1. They have a lot of rules and regulations 2. Every team tries to tweak the cars, tires etc. as much as possible to get an edge over the competition...
