  1. Tibhar Hybrid MK review

    Out of those, I've only used Xiom Vega Pro H and Victas V>20 Extra. The Victas is quite fast compared to Vega Pro H. Right now I'm using Victas V>15 Sticky Soft that I like a lot. Restarted table tennis last fall after a 30 year "break". :)
  2. What faster blade can you recommend for the future? Thanks in advance

    7-ply wood maybe? Stiga Clipper Thibar BSS1 Victas SWAT Power/Koki Niwa Wood Butterfly SK7
  3. US Open Table Tennis Championships-2025 (16–21 December 2025)

    Anyone from the forum participating in this years' event? :)
  4. What's the best Butterfly off wood blade?

    Thank you! They seem quite different indeed, would love to try both!
  5. Rating progress evaluation

    Do you know what that would corespond to in the Swedish ranking system? In Sweden, as a beginner you start at 750 ranking points. I'm from Finland, but since TT is such a small sport here, me and my club mates often goes to tournaments in Sweden. In my local club, almost no one has a playing...
  6. What's the best Butterfly off wood blade?

    How do they differ from each other?
  7. Butterly Korbel SK7 - Anyone use one of these - review please?

    I was gonna buy the Korbel SK7, but then discovered there's also a SK7 Classic which I prefer, at least estetically. Unfortunately the SK7 Classic isn't sold in Europe, but could be ordered from sellers on Ebay. Are the Korbel SK7 and SK7 Classic (almost) identical...
  8. Nittaku fastarc G-1 is a good rubber? if yes is better for fh or bh?

    Maybe my Yasaka Falck Carbon has low throw? :unsure: Is it even possible that a blade exhibits low or high throw?
  9. Nittaku fastarc G-1 is a good rubber? if yes is better for fh or bh?

    Would you say C1 is a low throw rubber? For my personal taste, C1 borders on a bit too low throw. In a bit of panic I had to use it as a replacement BH rubber for one of my blades, Yasaka Falck Carbon. Just had to replace Sanwei Gear Hyper as BH rubber, since I really, really hate low throw on...
  10. Tt-japan

    Unfortunately, I have the same experience. Have asked about availability and only met with total silence! This led me to put in an order for an out of production Joola blade I couldn't find anywhere else. The web store indicated it would be in stock, but in the end there were none. They got back...
  11. At what skill level would a hard (48-50 deg and up) FH rubber improve the game?

    Do you encourage me to try out some harder FH rubbers? Lately I've used Vega Pro H, J&H X47.5, Victas V20 extra and Victas V15 Sticky Soft on my FH. Actually, the other day I ordered some Stiga Hybrid H, DNA Platinum H and Dragon Power 52.5 to try out. Cheap as hell on Aliexpress Black Friday...
  12. At what skill level would a hard (48-50 deg and up) FH rubber improve the game?

    Hi, I've had a strange discussion with a club mate of mine. He has got this weird opinion that you always should choose a hard (48-50 deg and harder sponge) FH rubber if using a carbon blade. I try to explain to him that all carbon blades are not equal and the differences in speed, stiffness and...
  13. New Stiga Cybershape Aura (!?)

    Is the chinese market Stiga Surge the same blade as the Aura? What is the surface made of on the Aura? EDIT: outer ply on Aura seems to be Limba. And according to this video, Surge uses yellow carbon fiber and Aura green:
  14. Double Fish Project-Z: New blade for Zhou QiHao Made in Korea

    Ordered one today! If the delivery goes reasonably smooth, I can give it as a Christmas gift for myself! ;)
  15. Best Viscaria higher quality alternative

    Today I was so close to break my Butterfly boycott (main reason is their no discount policy), when there was a slight sale on Fan Zhendong ALC, but ultimately the boycott continues since the ST handle was out of stock in their EU web store. Anyway, intsead I ordered those two models from HW...
  16. Is it possible? Blade question.

    Do you know this for a fact? I have a friend who loves his Maze ALC and would like to continue using that blade. The problem is that even used Maze ALC goes for 400+ euro, totally mental. Chat GTP suggested that Freitas is the successor and probably the available model that's most similar to the...
  17. Xiom Hugo Hal from a perspective of a Butterfly ALC User

    I have Vega Pro H on two Xiom rackets (ANJ TXMi and ALX 36.5), unfortunately not on the HAL, which I use together with J&H X47,5 on FH. Anyway, I highly recommend the Vega Pro H rubber. Just go with it on the HAL! On all these rackets I use Vega Korea for BH, another solid choice!
  18. New Cybershape from STIGA

    Personally, I wouldn't say you'd miss anything, going directly to the HAL. But that's only my limited view. Maybe someone with more experience could second that opinion or argue against it? I have the second gen. The first one sold out before I could snatch one; by the time I became interested...
  19. New Cybershape from STIGA

    Funny, I got quite similar background as you! Played lots and lots of TT growing up, in schools and fritidsgårdar, but never ever organized at a proper club witch coaches and stuff. Started again last fall, when I decided to join the local club. Right now, one of my rackets is the Hugo HAL and...
