And the battle for the TRUTH continues ;-)

I didn't play with the G888, but the Rxton9 is the best "alternative" for H3 BS prov. so far for me... It is more tacky than the newer H3s, I actually wouldn't mind being less tacky. The top-sheet is nice and elastic, the sponge similar, very good spin. The speed - it is what we call linear, and...

Finally getting why you speak about the/his head ;-) Put in playback speed 0.25...

Yep, the top-sheet is too hard for the BH, and the sponge is too soft for the FH. My 2 cents... ;-)

I know, but can't achieve yet... In the meantime I realized that I keep my elbow too high, and then I simply can't achieve the "horizontal" bat, so I lower it now for backspin, which gives a chance for recognition... Also it matters where is the ball relative to my body at the contact - if it is...

Lately I struggle with bringing good backspin on the RP serve and I had it in the back of my mind for some time... Side and top-spin is no problem... I even tried to contact the ball like from bottom up on the further side, before I watched this, but still not there... So this is like for me ;-)

From what I have seen I think you've made impressive progress for the 4 years, very impressive. You also look like someone who has a lot of fun during the training. I sort of understand your momentary frustration, but in my opinion, this is all just the process... I really wish you find...

Fwiw, I have the same impression ;-) I actually bought the B3 H39 for a friend, but when I tried it, I had a problem with the top-sheet, not the sponge. As you say, I felt the top-sheet is overly hard, and I thought no amount of boosting will make this right... Anyway, this might have been just...

Is this enough? ;-) I think that in order to maximize the power, 1 detail is this: how "open" is your chest at the point of contact? I think there are differences even among CNT, e.g. between WCQ and FZD, and I think WCQ's is more open/powerful. I mean that "how open is your chest" is a...

You're right, but we know why it is as it is. Honestly, it doesn't even put me off. I don't consider these ratings. Either I try the rubber on someone else's blade or I get enough probability from AnatomicEdge, TTD or other forums, and buy. I do make mistakes, e.g. the Z52.5 went off the blade...

Fwiw, I've tried the Xiom Omega 7 China Guang (O7CG) yesterday shortly. The sponge looks visually pretty similar to the C55, hard to see diffs. without magnifier, so the O7CG sponge is also rather dense, either equally or almost as dense as the C55 sponge. It was on friend's blade, the Meister...

Sorry for waking this up... @zeio, any material about pimple structure and its influence of the playing properties? I could write about my experience, but I'd rather read something "objective" ;-) TIA...

75g with 4 very thin layers of glue, 54g cut to my blade (159x150, the miracle from Sergio), the 2.1 thickness. (I did a bad job, had to remove). It is not suitable for both sides, imo, but that will depend obviously on the player's preference. The sponge has typical chinese dense sponge...

Some people say that to become expert at just about anything, you simply need to put in cca 10'000 hours. That is what really matters and other things are less important... So, year has 365 days ~ 52 weeks, lets say I play 3 days in a week (which is not always the case), this makes 156 days...

I play with STN now, I think about almost 3 months, boosted with 1 layer, after 2 months re-boosted with 2 very thin layers. Actually I'm glad I tried it, but I think I won't stay with it. The Rxton 9 top-sheet is a bit nicer for me, a bit softer and more elastic. And the sponge of the STN is...

I think there is a small misunderstanding, because we speak about two different "straightening the arm". If I had to illustrate the point I was trying to convey from another perspective, I'd say that the back-swing ideally should not follow the same path as the forward swing, but take another...

Very curious about your evaluation... P.S. We should have sub-threads... This really feels as a sub-thread/chain response...

Yes, that's it... and also total "unsurmountable" ;-) difference to hybrids, for ages, and the eternity... Edit: I'm not really serious, sorry ;-) Let me explain... Like you, I felt in love to the response from the dense sponge. But as you know, it's double edged sword, it really only works...

That's good, there are indeed nice places here, e.g. this year's TT-forum meeting was in town called Polička, which has beautiful old-town centre, and the beer from Polička's brewery is absolutely excellent... Also here, I'm sure you'd enjoy it... The clubs usually have dedicated venues, but...
