Well, that's one side. How about those who LIKE playing against pips? How about those who play with pips? See, your opinion is very much valid, but I wouldn't consider it a cheat at all. It adds style to the game, where games can become more strategic rather than just smacking the ball the same...

Yep, I am planning to change it to a Yasaka Goiabao later this year. Yes, it is an allwood, but a very powerful and fast one. This is a first! I've never really noticed this in my game until my rubbers start getting wet (not really the ball though, maybe I'm missing something). Sometimes, the...

Hmm... I see, I'll try to see what I can do. However, I think you missed out on a couple of comments talking about air moisture and quality control and boosting

"i" 🥶🥶🥶🗣🔥🔥

That could do, but overall i think g1 would do a better job...

Update: thank you for all your ideas and suggestions! I will analyze all of them However, I think I have found the problem. Air moisture. Just earlier I played at a school where it was more dry and there was no problem. Came back to the house and quality started to drop again. Is this it?

You're on your own here, bud

OP literally said it was too expensive 😭😭

You can try some cheap hybrids from yinhe or yasaka Maybe go for Rakza Z? That's basically a more controlled and cheaper D09c. But then again G1 is already good

I feel like it is simply the spin reduction. Even heavy spin on the modern ball can't compare to the old ball. Those arcs are wild. But I mean ITTF did do what they wanted to, that being making rallies longer and more entertaining. So whatever they're doing, they're doing it good

In my recent playing, I found myself missing shots because of one thing: the ball dives into the net when I make the stroke, and it seems as if the ball has no spin at all. My training partner also says this (that my balls lacked spin compared to before). Sometimes the balls had decent spin...

Ohh, I see it now. Thank you for the clarification man, I really appreciate it! My point is the ball of course is still spinny, but not nearly as spinny as before. Because of that, people didn't focus as much on spin (because spin isn't as much as a weapon now but instead more for consistency...

Yep, good points allround. The ball does spin pretty equalliy against the slow backspin and for far range attacks. But, I was really talking about the ball change, and how that affects the spin of the game. I've seen many comments that after a decade long break, they come back to a "spinless...

I would continue to post things about my opinion, like that when I said flat hitting has become more apparent I don't mean that every shot is flat hitting, but at this point there I have already learned what I needed to learn. Thank you, @NextLevel for the information!

Yep, of course I know about the spin increasing both max speed and consistency. But the current ball limits the spin on shots, because of the size and material changes. Of course, tt is still a very spin based game, but in recent times flat hitting has become more apparent. Compare the modern...

I guess. But the most modern ball, 40+ and plastic, reduces the amount of total spin on the ball, hence making the game more speed based. This is a reason why penhold fell off, since penhold has more feeling than shakehand, and the game moved away from feeling and is now closer to power.

Well, looks like I stand corrected! The rubbers to an extent are more important than the blades! However, the blades do have a longer lifespan so you have to pick a better blade first, then you can experiment with the rubbers. And I guess the blade also gives most of the feeling to the game, so...

Yep, that's a good call. G1 is fantastic, don't stray from it.

@Walalang I really just suggest keeping the fastarc and improving your stroke to make sure everything goes into the middle. If not, just get another G1 and not stretch it when gluing it, like what @Tyce said. G1 is an EXTREMELY good at control, speed, spin, and control. Usually if a player...
