  1. Best glue for easy removal from rubber

    yes i indeed use it to change abit of feeling. but i mostly played with tensors. it worked with rev.03 since a long time, but lately it is not sticking anymore and the edges not hold anymore. i tried with more glue layers, but that didn’t helped, just made the blade feel dull at one point.
  2. Best glue for easy removal from rubber

    that is right :D for me at least rev.03 always just felt softer compared to those first waterbased glues especially with several layers. sometimes even dull if i have to many layers. the new ones say (maybe just marketing, maybe real) they will feel harder, and from the look from videos they...
  3. Best glue for easy removal from rubber

    wow seams really like a high praise by many members for that sueke no.2! then i need to check that out. i just don’t know what i should do with 260 ml :D but nobody tried that new “Pro” glues by andro, tibhar and donic? they say this new glue formula makes the rubber more elastic and gives more...
  4. half long soft / less spin pushes! Absolutely hate'em MF'ers!

    you can try to either take the ball at the highest point and go more through the ball, that is what i mostly do and this results in the most winning points, but can sometimes go into the net if you misjudge the spin or timing (dependend on the quality of your opponent). or play it safe and spin...
  5. Best Inverted Defenders Rubber for Backspin?

    so tacky rubber is better then a grippy one and thinner is also better. nice :) but would you also suggest getting a harder one?
  6. What materials or compositions give the feeling of holding the ball?

    for me personally it matters more the overall composition of the blade. you can have outer carbon blades (mostly hard) that ‘hold the ball’ and innerforce blades (mostly soft) that don’t and are more responsive. i don’t know how they do it, maybe it is more about how stiff the blade is, maybe...
  7. Best Inverted Defenders Rubber for Backspin?

    hey everyone, one of my clubmates plays an untypical defensive game with two inverted rubbers and i wanna help her find the best solution. since here most people ask about offensive equipment made for pros i wanted to open a new thread for intermediate defensive players playing with grippy/tacky...
  8. China Smash 2024, Beijing, 9/26-10/6

    wow this was an amazing game!
  9. Does the color of the table matters a lot?

    for me the colour doesn't matter too. what messes with me more if i trained on a stop table but play the match on a slide table. sometimes you don't know this before and then it takes a lot of time for me to get the feel for it. sometimes i even need to change tactics.
  10. I touch the table

    'all over the world' is a big generalization. i would say it could be just a country / cultural difference, because in germany the tables usually are getting cleaned before a matchday and therefore a lot of people doing this 'touch the table' routine. i would not play a match on a table with...
  11. I touch the table

    no offense, but that says more about where and with whom you play than about the habit itself
  12. Is this forehand topspin technique in the video for both top and back spin half-long serves?

    i was teached the same by my coach. you will always have a forwardmotion in a topspinstroke, but against underspin it is from down to up coming from the legs and against nospin it is more from behind. the more underspin the more up you go, but you need always a forward momentum to give the ball...
  13. Is butterfly overpriced

    since the price updates over the last years i would say yes, tenergy is a good choice again. but something like dignic 09c? that is some money making tool for me
  14. Is butterfly overpriced

    i noticed the same and sometimes when i play against people and see their paddle first and think: "wow they play with viscaria super alc and dignics 05 both sides? oh shit they must be super good" and then i start warmup with them and they can't get more then 5 balls on the table i am seriously...
  15. I touch the table

    i also do it, i get really sweaty hands while playing and since you can only get a towelbreak after every six points, it helps. then at one point it became a calming mental thing and now i do it even without sweating :D
  16. Is butterfly overpriced

    yes that is true, we have the luxury that many TT brands are coming from germany, so maybe in countrys where you don't have tt shops and are only able to buy online there will be not much difference between butterfly and tibhar except for the price
  17. Is butterfly overpriced

    but i think that is so sad, because tabletennis is such a niche sport and most companys invest in clubs, sponsor players or even tournaments, so there really connected to the scene. while butterfly is doing this weird marketing strategy of beeing super exclusive and disconnected.
  18. Is butterfly overpriced

    i was actually kinda shocked when i registered to this forum and saw how many people play or praise butterfly or DHS, because that is really uncommon in germany. here you have the opposite and the most played companys are andro and tibhar
  19. Is butterfly overpriced

    that is true, a lot of tt shops in germany don't sell butterfly, or when they do then not officially and just 'behind the curtains', because butterfly has a really restricted selling policy. i don't know many people playing butterfly in germany and when you do see one then there mostly full...
  20. Tibhar Szocs Signature 1 vs. Tibhar Samsonov Force Pro Black Edition vs DHS Power G7?

    for me it plays like a slower viscaria with a higher throw, but feeling wise it is so different, because it feels really soft compared to viscaria and has a lot less vibrations. it also has a really fast rebound and therefore plays like an outer carbon blade with the forgiveness and feel like an...
