  1. Thinking about switching to Boll ALC

    I think 88-90g is the sweetspot in weight
  2. Viscaria or TBalc?

    In my experience the Boll ALC is a harder feeling blade - a treatment to the top ply seems to give it a crisper feeling. I like both but feel the Viscaria is a little softer and slightly less direct in feeling. The difference is not big…
  3. I got sucked into the Butterfly hype

    I don’t think it’s Butterfly hype but sounds more like the challenge of learning to play with a faster setup than you’re used to (inner alc + Rozena is not particularly fast) - undoubtedly this always takes a little time and may not yield results as you expect. I recently went back to a slower...
  4. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Picked this up recently and have to say it’s the best looking blade/rubber combo! (Plays really well too) Samsonov force pro black + Dynaryz AGR
  5. Is it time for a faster blade?

    Who are you and what have you done with Gozo??

    I wasn’t implying he was stagnating - I was however agreeing that his game style has it’s limitations when facing players with superior movement or weapons such as FH, which in my view all those listed have. I think his results in ‘23/24 vs CNT players have not been very good.

    Most of the CNT ? LYJ Felix

    For me it's not limited to Wang, but rather any player with a higher level of FH attack.
  9. WTT Singapore Smash 2024 3/7-3/17

    I agree completely - his weapons just don't look effective against the CNT players
  10. The Dark Side is getting more and more tempting...

    Team dissident is the only way - otherwise get that forum handle changed as Quadri will not be endorsing you...
  11. Fang Bo's coaching videos translated

    Thanks - that’s a great video.
  12. WTT Singapore Smash 2024 3/7-3/17

    Pitch would have to get past Truls and then likely Wang C to even get to a quarter!
  13. [Concluded] Looking for an ‘all wood alternative’ for Viscaria

    My Falcima was not much slower than my Viscaria (1380hz vs 1460hz) but had an all wood feel and Koto outer feel. My Virtuoso was a very different blade, much softer feel (Limba I think) and also slower - handle also felt very different.

    Butterfly Falcima is one good option and ticks your boxes.
  15. My perfect Bh rubber - Dignics 80, Victas V22DE, Nittaku Hammond Z2

    I find 64 much more accessible on BH - feels a little softer and easier to use.
  16. best glue?

    Strange that it has disappeared - I am just onto my second bottle and have found it pretty good.
  17. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    Not my experience at all. Grippy not tacky, feels softer than it is, loads of spin and control and pretty easy to play if you have a decent technique - best FH rubber I’ve played by far.
  18. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Thanks - makes sense. I need to focus on finding and identifying that catch and release feeling I guess. When you say BH hit - what exactly do you mean (Flat hit or more open blade topspin?)
  19. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    I was watching the video below where he puts a strong emphasis on wrist movement, then forearm movement - how does that fit in with what you are explaining? watch
