Well, if you could ask this question for me to a company's expert and reply me here publicly, I would appreciate it. I'm pretty sure that other members as well, would like to know the type of motors.
I agree 100% with you: When a beginner starts off with a very fast blade, it hinders development.
The reason is simple: At the very beginning in order to learn and understand the mechanics of each stroke ,the movements have to be much bigger and even "exaggerated". That is something that cannot...
What's your Top 5 of blades that would like to have in your collection and never sell/trade?
My Top 5 of blades:
1. Xiom TMXi
2. Butterfly Innerforce ZLC
3. DHS Hurricane Long 5
4. Butterfly Viscaria
5. Donic Ovtcharov (Original) No1 Senso
I wouldn't recommend buying a Joola robot, just look for another brand.
I was one of the unlucky ones who bought a Joola Infinity: I was continually having problems with it and Joola abandoned the project by admitting it was a failed one. Of course, we were never reimbursed!!!!

I don't think that they can't make legal serves, it's that they don't want to.
Especially older players, rely on illegal serves to score easy point and know that most opponents out of respect of their age or in order to avoid being "hostile", will just not complain.
Take for example this guy...
It's not a matter of cameras, VAR system or simplification of service rules. Ultimately it will be up to the umpires to call an illegal serve. Most umpires ARE and WILL BE hesitant to call on illegal serves (especially on superstar players), in order not to disrupt the flow of the games.

I don't have an opinion specifically for EL-D, but rubbers tend to shrink if they are factory boosted or there's too much pressure applied when gluing.
To my experience, the only rubber that is not shrinking is Nittaku G1.
It's been about 6-7 months since I've tried it and can't remember all the details.
From what I can recall, I didn't like the feeling and vibration, the throw angle (higher than I like) and didn't like at all the blocking.
I've noticed that your current blade is Xiom TMXi which is the same I play with.
All I can tell you is that I tried Super Viscaria for 1 session with T05 on the FH and Dignics 05 on the BH and hated it.
Didn't like anything about it. I much prefer TMXi in all aspects.
I really liked the...
Yes, I will use the same rubbers.
The difference in dwell time and vibration that you mention, is it only due to the bigger head size and thicker handle? Does it have any other difference in composition?
@Giangt Apart from the difference in head size, would you say that TMXi and TMXi Pro have any significant other differences in play?
I'm currently playing for 2 years now with normal TMXi and I love it.
Is it worth trying the Pro version or is it exactly the same?
Interesting.
In 2021 Xiom introduced something similar, the iSwitch Vega Pro rubber, but I haven't seen it in any store.

it's a pity that this technology hasn't been implemented in all their rubbers.
I have never played with Chinese rubbers and never heard about pre-applied glue.
So H3Neo doesn't need additional glue on the sponge? You only put glue on the blade?
