  1. DHS Hurricane Long 5 and andro Rasanter C53

    so, as I gift I received the DHS Hurricane Long 5. at the beginning I glued on it Dignics09c and Donic Bluegrip C2. it was a nice combo, but for competition, the blade wouldn't be legal as the rubbers were quite small. I had some andro Rasanter C53 rubber and Nuzn 50, Rakza Z and Z Extra Hard...
  2. Butterfly Michael Maze equivalent blade

    today I played with Butterfly Michael Maze blade with Dignics 09c + D05 and I really liked the blade. apparently it is a limba outer blade - is there something similar in current Butterfly lineup available?
  3. Researching the DHS Hurricane rubbers

    so, in my competing career I was never fond of chinese rubbers. probably because of the bad experience I had when my dad put one of the Friendship 729 rubbers onto my blade in order to get my backhand going. and everything I remember was - tacky as hell ... but sloooooow!! dead snails were going...
  4. Warranty on Table Tennis Blades

    so, about a month ago I bought Xiom Hugo ALX Supreme Pro. yesterday I wanted to change rubbers and after peeling the rubber off the blade, the top layer splintered badly. I am attaching some pics as well. I noticed during the first rubber change, that the top layer is quite fragile, but...
  5. Substitution for Stiga Radical

    I am doing a research for my team-mate, who is currently playing with Stiga Radical, which is not available anymore - which short-pip rubber would be a good substitute for this rubber? Stiga has Symmetry now, but I have no idea, if this is just modernised Radical or something completely...
  6. Nittaku's Hurricane(s) vs. DHS' Hurricanes

    hello there! so, I have tried the "regular" unboosted DHS Hurricane 3 and like it for most of time, but I did not like the fact that it can bite you when you are not correct with timing and/or positioning. I do not want to get things messy and start playing with boosting (then I go back to speed...
  7. Is modern table tennis changing rubber technology trends?

    so, a little bit of food for thought. I got this question while reading one of the threads on this forum, where statement was made by @WingTT : It's hard to generalise rubbers based on generation but the trend is toward harder rubbers. The only advantage older rubbers have is maybe price and...
  8. Rubber thickness

    just a short question - how does rubber thick translate into play in modern table tennis? I am buying some new rubber and most are available in MAX thickness which I am afraid would be a bit much nowadays. 20 years ago when I played competitively MAX ment most speed, but also nice, cushy...
  9. Looking for FH rubber options

    hi all! so, currently I am trying to get back into table tennis. after cca. 20 years of hiatus I started playing at the end of 2023 again. table tennis was quite different now then it was when I stopped playing. I was playing professionally, on top national level (top 10 in my country in...
  10. Any effect on freshly glued rubber?

    recently I got back into table tennis and when I stopped playing it was still era of speed glueing the rubbers ... so I am in process of finding right material for me and was wondering - does the current water based glue add speed or not? or, better but - does it affect playability? I was using...
