  1. Used too much sand paper on wings of blade

    A few times with clear epoxy (which needs one hour to harden) and black epoxy with iron dust which is quicker. There is also 5 minutes (really need half an hour, but after a few minutes it can´t be adjusted) clear epoxy for a few bucks. How does it feel? Well, same as wood. there is really no...
  2. Used too much sand paper on wings of blade

    5 min Epoxy resin, then sand it to the desired shape. But it would be heavier then, not much, but more then before.
  3. Why do you still use Tenergy 05?

    Back then, it was even cheaper, but you still have inflation. Tenergy is not anymore the most expensive rubber. These new Andro are more expensive. Stiga is the same. Others are like 10 USD max cheaper, but their lifespan is the third of Tenergy's.
  4. Dignics 80 vs Hurricane 3 Neo Provincial

    I would offer my perspective here. Note, that I am not an expert nor someone with great backhand. Nevertheless, since you are playing with Hurricane on the backhand, it wouldn´t be too good to go for a soft rubber, hence the hardness of dignics is good. Rozena is too soft. Remember, the...
  5. DHS PG7X

    There have been similar questions back then. But it is not yet distributed or widely used. Since the composition is the same as in H301, and the P series are cheaper variants of higher blades from DHS or others, such as PG6X is Viscaria/Timo Boll, PG5X is HL5X, PG5 is HL5, PG7 is 506 or HL3, I...
  6. STIGA Mantra M or Butterfly Rozena (BH)

    It depends on what you mean by an amateur player. Anyway, it wouldn´t really make a difference for almost anyone if it were Mantra or Rozena. In both cases, you should take a 1,9 mm sponge, to get control, it won´t be slow. With Rozena, you would get a longer lifespan, with Mantra, you would...
  7. Dignics 09c vs DHS Hurricane 3 Blue versions

    I would recommend getting a slower blade with those Dignics, or even Glayzer. Since you can use this combo in multiball, where all is given, where the ball will go, how fast, etc., yet you are struggling in a match, that means you have no control over it. Since you are using it in max...
  8. Heming Hu on Equipment

    Well recommending Hurricane and Tenergy, that may be out of line. But there are many rubbers, that could be considered good enough. Even Werner Schlager recommended using rubbers like Rozena and Glayzer from the start, just with a slower blade, and then changing to faster blades. These rubbers...
  9. Why do Zhang Jikes Movements Look so clean?

    I read somewhere that Zhang Jike also had problems with vertebrae resulting in lot of back and neck pain.
  10. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Nope, but from photos on Prott, it looks like another innercarbon variation, and if it is koto as the top ply, it could be the same as DHS 301, of which I already have two pieces.
  11. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Bought another PG7 and PG5X (HL5 structure) and PG6X (Viscaria structure + Hurricane 8-80. It is an endless adventure with trying Hurricanes, this one insanely heavy. 53 grams cut without glue.
  12. How do you remove the glue from sponge the best?

    Yep, glued a lot with that. With evenly spread layers both on rubbers and blades, it works well. Also glued some for my teammates, and recently there hasn´t been a problem. Only once that came eventually from the blade and we couldn´t reglue it no matter what, but it was a specific case. I read...
  13. How do you remove the glue from sponge the best?

    You can get a liter of liquid latex for about 10 euros. When the rubbers are not so old, you can then peel off the old glue by adding 2-3 layers of latex onto the sponge, same technique as gluing, layer, dry, etc. Also, the latex is good for gluing. I say good because it behaves like these...
  14. Should I boost my Dignics09C ?

    I can't tell anything with D09C, but my experience with boosting one layer of FTL on Tenergy 05 1,9 was a miracle. It has a better feeling for a ball, not so rigid, thus a softer feel. Regarding K3, I´ve been using it for a month and a half, and it is really good rubber. It grips the ball well...
  15. Should I boost my Dignics09C ?

    Hello. I don´t want to hijack this thread, but also do not want to create a new one to spam the wall. Could you please write here, on in PM, how does the K3 behave after boosting please?
  16. Matches from a good angle to learn from where pros use W968

    Worshipping "W968" is getting out of hand.
  17. Rubber peeled off after gluing, what should I do next?

    Yeah, reglue. But it seems like you put really big pressure since the pimples are this visible. With regluing normally, it could play differently.
  18. Is 2.1 to 1.9 thickness noticeable?

    It can. I am maybe the last person, to tell someone anything about blocking in table tennis. However, whenever I changed from Max to 1,9, mostly Stiga mantra and tenergy, I could feel that the thinner sponge helped with feeling for the ball, unpredictability of speed due to the high catapult...
  19. Real Stiga Dynasty Xu Xin Edition?

    Also the blue metalic label with name and picture should be other way round, for a left hand player like Xu Xin.
  20. A good downgrade from Fan Zhendong ALC?

    Hi. I will tell you what I´ve recently come around. I played with inner carbon blade. Just for the sake of nostalgia, I bought a blade that I had before, but destroyed, which is DHS PG7. I put older used Tenergy 1,9 on bh. I instantly felt the ball better, the feeling for the ball, therefore the...
