I think it's perfect how it is tbh. I compare it with Tennis. Some players have the edge on serve and 3rd ball, some have a big shot on one side and not every point is a 15 shot slug fest, not should it be, same for TT imo. Table Tennis is more about spin and those that can handle it best...

Mark V The price of that rubber is ridiculous tbh. It still has a place for beginners but that's it and so it should be ~€15. Butterfly at least has longevity going for it and that makes Glayzer a steal at €45 and even Dignics is fine at €80 if you can get a year from it. ESN rubbers over €40...

Crazy post from you, really. Equipment is important, and you actually know it's important. What it is important for is certainly up for discussion and absolutely, technique is king. But if someone says an Inner Carbon Blade with D05 is difficult to play with there is definitely some...

You could try Glayzer 05 instead instead of D05. It's a more forgiving rubber, same topsheet as D05 but with different (and softer) sponge. You will more easily achieve spin and find it easier to work on your FH technique.

No. It was a joke that stemmed from some comments earlier in the thread.

I cannot actually remember the last time I've broken a Nittaku or DHS ball, it was last year sometime. Even the DHS 1* training balls are better than these Loki ones you bought and the DHS 1* are only ~€4 for 10. Good info all the same, thanks for update and the review

Well he is getting his ass kicked here! Maybe that's because Zyre is shit 😂

Looks quiet in WTT until the US Smash at end of June. What else is happening before then?

Checked in luggage Is booster more flammable than any other Aerosol, Deodorant, Perfume or Aftershave? I reckon not....

Definitely reglue it yourself imo. Changing for a different blade is going to give a different feeling anyway. There are some blade makers in here, SDC, Hypnotic and others who, if you hit them up directly can give you the absolute correct advice on the gluing process. In general tho a...

Absolutely agree with this. It depends much more on the technique and the rubbers. D09c and not hitting as you loop can feel weak from midrange but properly engaging that sponge it's no issue at all to hit the table and counter looping like that is a D09c strong point. Same for D05 although...

Noooooooooo!!! There's an entire separate thread for that 😉

This challenge was tailor made for you guys to collaborate with Craig Bryant on that serving practice!

Nope. How do you like them, any good?

Oh man, I didn't realise how much of a mess I was until I read this! Id pretty much forgotten what was in the drawer but actually I have: 1) my new FZD ALC with D05 and D80, haven't played it yet, going to start coaching with it nxt week. 2) Innerforce ALC with D80 and D09C. (Current racket...

My brain🤦 I had actually read this yesterday 😂 For some reason I was remembering it as having referred to 0-2 in the Harimoto match. Is there a transcript from the Harimoto match also?

I wonder if they'll do a season there soon to boost the entire thing, and the value of their investment. 🤔

Is there a transcript of what he said to Liang during the Alexis match? Would be interesting to see that

It seems odd that a coach for the top U13s in the country wouldn't know the likely impact on a player of D09C V D05 by now, these rubbers are around for ~8 yrs. Zyre I get it, it's basically brand new. But to just wave off the possibility that a kid (parents) may spend $100 on something without...

I'm surprised he hasn't given his thoughts on this. I would have assumed that D09c was too hard for an U13 player but I also do not know anything about elite level coaching in Canada. What little I know would have me recommending D05 over Zyre or D09c for its obvious use as an amazing attacking...
