The blade and the age and condition of the pips can both have a big effect on how they behave, so it is entirely possible they would be different to your training partners without being modified. It is also possible to vary the effect depending on the technique used, either intentionally or...

Yes, interestingly the side with the lens on is the outer carbon, so nominally the forehand side, but being used the other way round.

Since I changed to OX long pips, I found the overall set up weight effects how they play quite a lot. If I try out a different inverted rubber on my spare set up, if it is the same weight as on my main blade, then the pips play the same and I can get on with evaluating the inverted rubber. A...

TIBHAR Hybrid K1 European Version is the one which is the same as Golden Tango PS

Do you have a link to the 2026 catalogues? Thanks.

I did, they didn't respond, although they did add me to their mailing list 🤷

I understand why they would have such a policy, but it is frustrating that they don't bring the full range into the UK. Looks like I'm going to have to find an alternative to their Wave Medal SP5. The BOA closure system makes so much sense for table tennis, but I've always had to buy them from...

The green DTECS Grass and Purple Hellfire X rubbers seem very popular with long pips users, and I'm seeing quite a few purple Joola Dynaryz and blue Tibhar Hybrid MK out in the wild.

One of the custom blade makers, such as @SDC will be able to make you exactly what you want

I have the same problem, but mostly after competitive matches. It does seem that something about table tennis makes it worse than other sports, which I have done at a higher level than I play table tennis at, and I never had any issues sleeping after those.

I'd be interested in how the NUZN and J1 compare. NUZN and 09C are both better for me if I use 1 thin layer of booster when I first fit them. I don't reboost, so I suspect I am mostly speeding up the break-in process, rather than dramatically altering the performance.

Sreeja Akula and Manika Batra seem to do ok

How are you able to practice 92 hours a week?

I tend to get two blades of the same model and weight so I can have one as a back up, but in reality I always end up using the 2nd one to try out a different rubber before committing to it on my main blade.

I've had a couple of people mention they are having more trouble with my serves since I changed to Andro Nuzn, I'm not sure why, maybe its a bit less bouncy. I think the tackiness is negligible and I can't see how it would be enough to make any noticeable difference.

It says season, not session

I think the general concensus was they were extremely similar, they would happily use either, and if pushed the Nuzn on the FH and K3 on the BH. I've tried both. There is not a huge amount of difference. I think the K3 had a very slightly higher throw and was fractionally more tacky when brand...

I'd also have a look at Victas Spectol, probably the S3

Yes, they have always replied to me when I've used that email. Sometimes it takes a couple of days.

Focus and don't give up. It might well be that to win you have to be having a good day and they have to be having a bad one, but if you concentrate on every point it will improve your chances.
