The difference would be 2.8gm = 2.8ml of water +/- depending on the temperature. Curious if that's a small enough volume to be absorbed by a blade. Anyway, the weight change is an interesting phenomenon, whatever the cause.

To me it looks fine. I don't see any problems with the surface area apart from the dings around the edges. They wouldn't affect performance. I personally would have no problems using it. But some others might be able to give you advice about the dings around the edges.

Most likely still good as new. But a photo will help the experts in this forum help you. The PPP is a really good blade, and one of my faves. Assuming it is a Donic Persson Powerplay that you have.

Stereotype trigger alert... PoppaChubby the French: 'H' as in 'ipocryte' Timo the 'ipocryte. American on phone: eepocree-what? WTF? PoppaChubby the French: 'H' as in euh...oh, 'Ugo'! 'Ugo Calderano' American on phone: ooogo-what? WTF? Is it ee or oo? PoppaChubby the French: You don't play...

If you see any post from me saying blades contribute more to performance than rubbers, please know that WASN'T ME. Rubber over blades! Rubber over blades! All hail Lord NextLevel! 🖖 ;)

If I use this list, and the person on the phone gets it, dead giveaway they are an EJ too. Me: 'J' as in Jyoola Phone person: 'Jyoooola? LOL. It's pronounced 'Yoola'. What are you ITTF rating 500?

'J' as in 'Yorgen Persson'

If we had naming conventions like chess, you could tell your students: Practice hook serve. First ball bounce on A1, then second bounce D4, ball must exit at D5. Or Adam Bobrow can comment plays like: Alexis serves A1 to D5! Calderano loops to A3! Alexis blocks to D8! (and people listening on...

I called a dentist yesterday to book an appointment. I was asked to spell out my name ('A' as in,,, 'B' as in) and it was awkward to think of a good 'as in' for some letters. It would be nice to have a ready list of TT / PP names or terms to use, like: A as in Aruna B as in Boll C as in...

Perhaps that's why they're number 1 ha ha. But if sailors have a port side and a starboard side...

That tape is as thick as a Zyre sponge! Did you boost it?

While watching FZD vs WCQ I was struck by how effective FZD sends the balls to the leftmost side of the table. The left vertical edge relative to WCQ if you consider the net as horizontal. It was hard to explain which part of the table I was referring to, so I'm curious if the different parts...

Persson also had a unique way of holding the blade. His index finger wraps around the edge. If you cover the upper half of the body, it's hard to tell from just the shorts and legs if you're watching Saive or Szocs!

What do the numbers below mean? (The long series of white over blue numbers under LSD's feet). Edit: oh wait I got it.

What if you drop a small thick drop of glue in one of the spots, let it dry thoroughly and then peel off? Maybe the previous one will comes off with it. Just a theory though. Someone else had the same problem years ago...

Appreciate if you can send a video link.

Are there actually female EJs?

Funny enough, the first time I saw a ghost serve at world competitions was Jun Mizutani ghost serving Ma Lin! I may be misremembering if it was indeed Ma Lin as I can't find the video anymore, but it was a videoclip from this show. This version doesn't have that particular exchange with Ma Lin.

ZJK - that's true. I forgot that. Ma Lin - didn't know that. Maybe i haven't watched Ma Lin much.

Yeah. More important than even training is the outfit. Hard to play naked. You won't be allowed in the court even if you have "ITTF" tattooed somewhere.
