  1. WE USED 1950’s BATS! | Marty Supreme Knockout!

    Surprisingly difficult to find equipment for hardbat (== ping pong?). When you search for 'ping pong paddles' there's Stiga's guide for table tennis equipment called 'Choosing The Right Ping Pong Paddle | 2026 Guide'. So even Stiga messes up ping pong and table tennis...

    Went crazy and now I have total of 3 Stiga Dynasties o_O Two Chinese versions arrived at 91 and 93.5 (!!!) grams, which is a bit too much for penhold blade...in the latest video I play with the 91g version. The JTTAA version is 89, which is better, so I'll give it a try and see whether JTTAA...
  3. Lin Gaoyuan is an amazing drifter?!

    Saw on rednote how Xu Xin sings, also very good.
  4. Lin Gaoyuan is an amazing drifter?!

    What the heck is this real? Appears on 3:17. Though whole video is worth watching
  5. Stiga Intensity NCT V Xu Xin Edition + 729 Battle II prov blue + Hurricane 8

    It's me again with another video. Stiga Dynasty is truly the best blade I've played with. It is the most balanced option between BTY outer ALC blades and inner carbon blades. This time I was testing it with TG2 Prov. blue + Hurricane 3 Ma Long Star edition 37' red. Boosted once with 1 layer...
  6. DHS fans unite!

    If h3 works fine for you then why change? I've got a present from my fellow table tennis players: red H3 Ma Long Star Edition 37'. It's awesome and very, very consistent rubber. Also quite tacky. After break-in period it now plays very well, even for RPB blocking. I've only put 1 layer of...
  7. Interesting how things change - while everything stays the same

    Interesting how quickly yesterday's Hurricane 3 became today's less tacky Hurricane 3. marketing wins, people want to find something for easy wins, but it's always about skill 🤷‍♂️

    Recently I found that I play better with more linear blades, 301 is too flexy for my taste right now. Dynasty carbon is the best direct successor to Stiga Rosewood NCT V, which I also like very much, but it's less suitable for plastic ball era IMO.

    Won a tournament yesterday with Stiga Dynasty Carbon. Outstanding blade
  10. Variations within the same blade model

    The testing approach you describe sounds very interesting. There's so much speculation that Blue Label Stiga Dynasty Carbon Xu Xin edition is 'softer', more solid, has better feeling on the Chinese forums and videos, however ttd tested and said these are completely the same... By mentioning...
  11. Variations within the same blade model

    Of course, it happens with any blade manufacturer, even Butterfly. Wood is wood, it's all different. People claim that with BTY or Stiga or other 'premium' brand it's different, however I find that the variation is just less than with cheaper blades. Option 1: become rich. Buy 100 blades and...
  12. New Stiga blades: Luma and i1

    also, some cool 2026 Stiga Dynasty edition will be released in China it seems. Good marketing, I want one :)
  13. The Pro's Equipment - Discussion!

    hhmm here it is on prott
  14. Best all wood blade?

    Gave my Intensity NCT V to my student (he's the same age as me) instead of his Yinhe Pro 05. The trajectory of the top spin is insanely safe, powerful when needed too! He gained around 50 rating points almost instantly and also says that the feeling of the blade is outstanding. I would even go...
  15. Best Chinese sticky rubbers that don't need boosting

    Also to those who actually want to learn proper technique without the rubber 'pop' by itself. It is much more satistfying to hit a loopkill with H3 or B2 or Skyline 2 than with T05 or whatever tensor. On a higher level the footwork and stamina is a must anyway, so rubber is complementary to the...
  16. Best Chinese sticky rubbers that don't need boosting

    ah, finally Pentium III Will see if this one is a revolution or another version of battle that is completely the same as the other b2s or b3.

    Purchased YEO from AliExpress and here are some of my observations: - the seller promised the 'wordless' version with Ma Lin portrait, however I received a regular one - the wood structure and grain looks EXACTLY like my Stiga Intensity NCT V - it has JTTAA printed on the handle, while the EU...
  18. I can't play with Tensioned or Hybrid (EU, Jap) rubber anymore on forehand

    To me on the backhand side I switch between H8 and Xiom Vega X. New vega x almost 100% outperforms Chinese rubbers, however after only 1 week of everyday play the ball starts to slip a lot during the shots where I have to be more passive (meaning, the top sheet becomes unusable in some...
  19. Stiga Intensity NCT V Xu Xin Edition + 729 Battle II prov blue + Hurricane 8

    One more short vid with Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive (aka YEO), DHS Skyline 2 provincial blue sponge and Xiom Vega X. Overall, this is the best combo I think for me. If Rosewood V and Intensity V are somewhat similar, then YEO is a different beast. Trajectory is more flat, a bit easier to use...
  20. Most optimal playstyle/strategy to master

    When I was little I thought this is real. These days I'm still impressed on how they managed to make this video.
