  1. Headband sugestion

    I always bring lots of headbands because I also sweat a lot and wear glasses. I measure the intensity of my 2h workout by the amount of headbands I use. A good nights workout will be 5 . I just buy some of the cheap toweling headbands at Ali. They soak the sweat up nicely, cost very little...
  2. Victas Hino-Carbon Power

    I might want to buy one just because I like the handle. 😁
  3. Does Hurricane 3 Neo rubbers get tackier overtime?

    Looks like you have found the magic trick of the "tacky stuff"". If you manage to produce it you could sell it to the chinese and become a millionaire but of course I shall then ask you for my 10% Commish 🤣🤣🤣
  4. Does Hurricane 3 Neo rubbers get tackier overtime?

    in recent times not just H3s but pretty much all Chinese rubbers previously known as very tacky have lost a big part of their tackiness. Maybe the chinese have run out of the ""tacky-stuff"" 😂 Re. rubbers getting tackier as they age. Do you think that they are getting tackier through using...
  5. Boosting

    My method is to now glue any commercial H3 on my blade without boosting because one really can not tell anymore what hardness it is . After this initial "cold run" I then decide how much boosting (if any) I feel is needed. I cut my rubbers with scissors and leave a generous 3-4mm overhang...
  6. Some questions about Edge tape, Gluing, impacts on gameplay

    OK, i get it now. You are trying to make me believe that the top veneer of the blade de-laminated because you did not have the edge-tape . Right ???
  7. Is this blade legal?

    Naturally there are restrictions and one of them relates to the flatness of the blade. Others have already made suggestions how to fix the little damage so all I feel like saying is that after the glue has dried block-sand the the spot that has been repaired. I would use 280 or 320 grit lightly.
  8. Advantages of older generation rubbers (R7,G1,Vega Pro,..) ?

    thanking you kindly. Yes, this makes perfect sense (y)
  9. Advantages of older generation rubbers (R7,G1,Vega Pro,..) ?

    Ohhh, i sure want you to be happy ! 😁 as you seem to be the expert please help me understand what is ""keeping the tension in a rubber"". I understood the idea of a matt on a trampoline , the tighter it is stretched the more the bouncy effect, right ???? Now what has got me befuddled is...
  10. More tacky = more spin??

    I have just ripped a virtually brand new 999 from a blade because it just did nothing for me. Me buying the rubber was a bit of an act of nostalgia and because they are dirt cheap at Aliexpress. I am talking about the version with the white/creamy sponge. May i suggest a Loki rxton 3 pro as a...
  11. What is the ranking/positioning or Loki Table Tennis Brands (rubber and blades)?

    Hehehe 😂 The problem with old farts is that they easily get confused . Loki and their ever expanding range of rubbers and blades is showing clear signs of "fartism". More is not always better and the qualitative inconsistency problems made me turn away from Loki.
  12. Have You Used an Asymmetric Blade Like the SANWEI Two Face? Share Your Experience!

    You are not wrong but the minimal surface-only effect is so minimal that the balance is still guaranteed. With other words one might well end up having purchased a decent , well balanced blade but had to pay double the price for a useless gimmick 😂
  13. Have You Used an Asymmetric Blade Like the SANWEI Two Face? Share Your Experience!

    Yep, that is about all it needs 😁 In my efforts to prove that "asymmetrics " are bollocks I went as far as making a quick "knock-up" having on the "fast side" a 3mm thick sheet of carbonfibre and again the identical rubbers on both sides. And still there was only a subtle difference. QED

    It is too late for all the wisdom mate, she already has it in the Catalogue for sale. She should have asked you first 😂😂😂
  15. Have You Used an Asymmetric Blade Like the SANWEI Two Face? Share Your Experience!

    Andrea, I am currently playing with 2 blades that are, as you call it , asymmetric. One is the DHS-G and the other a STUOR copy. They are both excellent blades and the basic idea is OK. Of course it has to be said that not only ALL Professional players but even many ordinary club players...
  16. Quality expectations for AliExpress blade

    You will be alright and positively surprised at the quality you will get. There are a lot of snobs around that will always try to make you believe that unless you spend hundreds of dollars on a pro blade you made the wrong decision. I will not even ask you what level you play the game but...
  17. Quality expectations for AliExpress blade

    I second that. Just because some chinese brands are dirt cheap in comparison to other countries prices we can still get very decent quality blades out of aliexpress. (y)
