  1. Add a bit of sidetape at handle

    Does it really make the setup less head heavy?
  2. Am i cheating for using medication?

    I have ADHD, and without my medication i just can't focus, the ball teleports in my eyesight, much harder to keep track, not only that but i start to play really impulsive, without tolerance to frustration, wich makes really stressfull. But with medication i can stay calm and focused (like a...
  3. Tips against long pips

    When i play against someone using pips i have some issues with the spin, cause they don't always reverse the spin, so usually the games goes like this, i serve with low backspin, the receive has a bit of topspin, i drive, than he blocks with long pips, but sometimes it comes back to me with...
  4. Footwork issue

    Hey guys, i was doing this multiball drill during training, one short backhand ball, then one long backhand ball (all backspin), so the goal was to push short the first and backhand loop the second. The thing is, in the short ball i go foward with my right foot (i'm right handed player), then...
  5. Why so much hate against boosters?

    Why does people in this forum hate boosting so much? Every rubber already comes with fabric booster, so why is cheating to use booster? It's even more weird to hate chinese boosted rubbers, since it's much more difficult to use them than any european or hybrid rubber. Can someone explain?
  6. Which setup should I invest more time in?

    I have these two setups that I believe are good for me overall: viscaria + H3 39º FH + dignics 05 BH, xiom 36.5 ALXi + H3 39º FH + fastarc g1 BH. I really like both, but honestly, I still can't control the viscaria even in the FH with the Hurricane 3. I've been training for a little over a year...
  7. Generating power very far from my body on backhand

    I feel like my backhand is a bit weird, can't figure how to release the power close to my body, and this make my BH really awful.
  8. Hurricane 3 arc + outer ALC blade

    Yesterday i noticed something off about the H3, even though i can produce great spin and speed in forehand drive, i think the ball doesn't make a great arc, it's really spinny i can tell, but it has flat trajectory, i tried to do forehand drive with fastarc G1 (my BH rubber), and it has really...
  9. Why every new xiom blade have larger headsize?

    Literally all of them.
  10. Setup advice

    Hey, i was playing with viscaria + h3 39º OS FH and dignics 05 BH, even though i was enjoying this setup, i tried an allwood setup (hayabusa off pro) with H3 FH and vega korea BH, at first i was feeling this setup really slow, like ball would go at slow motion, and this lead to me using a lot of...
  11. Having some trouble with equipment

    I’m using viscaria with H3 39 commercial boosted on forehand, and dignics 05 on BH, and i’m not having great results with this setup. Guess my forehand is ok, but BH is really off, the biggest issue is that i can’t produce enough power in BH to engage the sponge of dignics, but i can use the H3...
  12. Starting position backhand

    Just realize i have long arms, so starting the backhand stroke at the belly is a bit weird to me, starting at the waist make it more natural and it feels better, is it wrong to start at this point? To reference i used this guy. (my arm almost reaches my knee)
  13. Some doubts about BH topspin

    Should i put my elbow a bit high to do this stroke? Also, i think i’m not waiting enough the ball, in what time i should hit it? Early descending? And where is the start positioning? Should i start with my racket closer to my body? There’s some footage
  14. How to receive side top spin serve?

    I really strugle with this kind of service, if i play passive i'll only suffer from the third ball, but when i try to attack the ball usually it will go into the net, should i hit the ball sideways because of the sidespin? Or brush the top of the ball lightly? Also, against penholders it's so...
  15. How long does a blade lasts?

    Just wanted to know, using viscaria for 2 weeks and i'm loving it, how long can i still use this piece of joy?
  16. My 15 month EJ journey in table tennis (Xiom offensive S+ Xiom 36.5 ALXi + TMXi + Viscaria)

    Hey guys, i have been training table tennis for a year and a few months, I would like to share a little about my journey with table tennis equipment that I have used so far. I started with an old racket (Yinhe N11s) + two Palios AK47s, at that time I knew nothing about table tennis, even the...

    Can you tell??
  18. Does anyone know what is this?

    I've seen a lot of people using it to put the rubber on while boosting.

FH: now i'm using rakza Z, but...
  20. Blade with cracking feeling

    I fixed the ripped 36.5 ALXi a while ago, but now there is a bit of cracking feeling close to the damaged area on BH side, when I hit this area the ball goes slow and a bit weird, because of that I'm starting to think about a replacement blade. My playing style is aggressive, I hate passing...
