@JJ Ng I'm curious what you'll say about Rxton9. You know we two view the STN differently ;-) I'm done with EJing, Rxton 9 IT IS!

That's a very good point, but your opinion, and TB's opinion and any others, is valuable. I think people extrapolate anyway. Also, that's why when I write about some rubber, I tried to compare with some other rubber (if possible), because that make it easier to relate to it. My estimation of a...

You know precisely in your head what to do, which is a good thing. I also try to keep these things in my head, and occasionally (really just occasionally) remind myself about it, during matches. But I think some things should be ingrained even more automatically, and I think that comes with time...

My setup is now 200g, and with C55+O7P I think it was 196g, so I think Rxton 9 is 3g heavier than C55. H3 BS is know for being light-weight... But I believe you'll like the Rxton 9 too... Yes, that were my thoughts too, but my exp. with C55 tells me that it indeed is cca 1,5x more expensive...

Absolutely, see you in 2 weeks ;-)

Why does it always lead to this??? LOL. Anyway, I wish we all calm down, and do not consider ourselves even worse people than we are ;-)

Do you think the let call for Pitchord's serve vs Ma Long was justified? Not vertical, really? I think pure bs, and it's like players have no defense against it... I think L.P. played very well.

Opinions will and do differ ;-) For me C55 is closer to H3 BS, than to D09C, because of the response, I think people call it power curve... If we would consider just the tackiness, then yes, it would be closer to D09C... Let us know how you see/feel it when you have it...

So far I bought it in "Global Sports Store" on Aliexpress, except the last one, which I glued today - that one I got from my friend, but I don't know where he ordered it. All 3 samples I had were/are OK. I played last season (2023/24) with the 2 samples (1 for 3 months, each reboosted after cca...

That's a beautiful example. Half aware, half instinct ;-) I had a bike but never did something like this ;-) I think as long as you have fun, all is OK. Sometimes I do see people kind of frustrated, that they'd like to play better or improve more. I hope you are not frustrated. I'd say for me...

That's true, but even in these shots, you could even say, especially in these shots, the thing which I call the principle, is clearly present. I agree with that too, but the point imho, is not really to explain how he did that particular extreme shot, but rather to explain the basics, which...

One should ask, what is it that doesn't change. I'm sorry, but my opinion is, that the majority of "how to do the FH loop", even from real pro coaches, incl. chinesse, is weak, and doesn't show and elucidate the principle, and doesn't let the people to really feel it in themselves. Look, I...

I wouldn't say the drop is big, but it feels noticeable now. It's like it grabs the ball less. I wouldn't care that much in exchanges, where you use more power, but it's not right in openings, especially slower openings. If it were off season, I'd happily play with it for another 5 weeks, but...

This weekend we played the 1st match of the season, in "divize" in our region, and we won, thankfully. Our opponent couldn't come with their strongest team though. I made 2 wins 1 loss. The team win is important, we need every win we can get. Also, today, we played the final of the Czech Cup...

I'm glueing Rakza XX right now, looking forward to test it on Tuesday... Writing a bit prematurely, as usual... Couple of notes to my previous rubbers. The Xiom Omega 7 Pro seems to me closer to Vega Pro than to Vega X. All rubbers very similar hardness, but the Vega X (which I tried recently...

So this is my C55 after 5 weeks, cca 40 hours. Changing tomorrow back to Rxton 9 40,5. It is a very very good rubber, but the durability is not optimal for hOBby player ;-)

There's been a thread about it recently, just in case...

Yes, that's it for me too. I feel good when I know I play "right", which means good movement, good body work, resulting in good power, relaxed but not over-relaxed, focused but not over-thinking, feeling proper mechanics... Essentially I play for this feeling as a hobby player, and I can...

Sorry, it's "Nittaku Hurricane 3 Pro Turbo Blue" (or some other permutation of words ;-), not sure which is official).

When the season is over, try the NTH3PTB. Then every weight is good weight ;-)
