  2. What is the best table tennis paddle set up?

    I think the OP is asking for a paddle palace catalog? Isn't it?
  3. Setup T05 and T05-FX on Zhang Jike ALC?

    I don't know about your blade handle preferences as you haven't mentioned it. In case, you are looking for ST handle then remember that TB ALC is SQST (square ST) while ZJK ALC is rounded ST.
  4. Setup T05 and T05-FX on Zhang Jike ALC?

    I would say that if you want to play that kind of game, then it is better to practice taking the ball early with your current setup. Since it offers more control. Using a very fast blade and then trying to learn timing and angles for ball contact could be really frustrating. My suggestion is...
  5. Setup T05 and T05-FX on Zhang Jike ALC?

    Hi, I am using ZJK ALC with T05 (max. thickness) on both sides. This blade/rubber combination is for offensive players who favors to open the rally first by an opening topspin whether on table (playing flicks) or away from the table. This setup favors more of aggressive approach, even when...
  6. Having a Butterfly dilemma

    Ok, I agree with the OP regarding the balance of the blade. I tried Stiga Clipper wood 93 gms. With Rakza 7 on both sides, the blade was around 196 gms (edge tape included) this was a bit too much for me. But I feel that Stiga has best feeling and best master FL handle hands down. However, I...

  8. STIGA Infinity VPS V, Clipper or Offensive Classic?

    Ok, your signature reads that you are using TB ALC. Right? Why do you want to change it? Have you tried adapting to your blade example, using controlled rubbers? If yes, how? Please don't get offended, I myself doubt my setup many times. But honestly, that is not a solution to my problems nor is...
  9. Review Xiom Omega VII PRO (Michal vs Dan TableTennisDaily)

    Please pardon, but I must say this. Your review as a stand alone review is good. But, please don't try to be unnecessarily competitive by posting misleading headings like (vs. Dan TableTennisdaily). I believe that I watch reviews to observe the skills which are possible using the rubbers and...
  10. Review Xiom Omega VII PRO (Michal vs Dan TableTennisDaily)

    I have noticed the same issue with other rubbers which have a brittle kind of sponge (e.g. Donic Bluefire). Also with other Xiom rubbers. Also, this might be off topic but I cannot understand the concept of sponge compression while serving. Since during serve, it is more of a quick brushing...

  12. Xiom Omega VII Euro and Pro Rubber Review!

    Hi Yogi, does that means that it is difficult to put spin on serve when serving with O7P?
  13. Looking for an OFF- blade suggestions

    Hi, I have played with Nittaku Septear in the past for a brief period. The blade has excellent build quality like all Nittaku blade and is a 7 ply hinoki wood. It offers excellent control and spin generation capabilities. Compared with Tibhar Stratus Power wood, which is a very fast all wood 5...
  14. OSP Virtuoso + Blade Photos

    Wow! these blade display true craftsmanship. Very nice looking. I agree with yogi_bear, these are more collectables hahaha. I think they will also play as awesome as they look since I once considered buying one of them after reading Carl's review. Congratulations to the proud owners. Please...
  15. Need rubber advice for Yasaka Sweden Extra

    The description provided by OP is tailor made for Yasaka Mark V. Also, with kind of reviews I have been reading, Mark V is able to handle the new poly ball very well.
  16. How to cover my wide forehand

    You need to understand that what you do before the block comes wide to your forehand? For example, if you pivot on your backhand, then where did you hit the topspin? To your opponent's cross court, his middle or down the line to his backhand. Assuming your opponent is right handed. If you want...
  17. Need some new shoes, need advice

    I bought the ASICS Gel Blade 5 from Amazon. They are decent. Actually, I found that the basic ASICS gel model (the barebone one) had better cushioning than the Gel Blade 5. However, I think that after few sessions my feet have adjusted to the shoe. So no complaints. But please bear in mind that...
  18. Do you change game/tactics as you get tired?

    I had also been bothered by this question in the past. How should I play OR what is my plan B when I get tired. Well, after searching for the appropriate answer to this question for several years, here is what I think and this applies to my game. Either I should practice two playing styles or...
  19. Are you playing against Timo Boll?

    Hey Der_Echte, My point was that - "Are we totally mesmerized by our opponent or are we thinking objectively?". I used Timo's name, as I wanted to emphasize on the fact about the mental picture we create against someone whom we are playing with.
  20. Are you playing against Timo Boll?

    Well this was the question my coach asked me during one of my matches in a tournament - He said emphatically "Are you playing against Timo Boll?" (Well a disclaimer, I am so respectful about Timo that I took the liberty to use his name, but you get an idea. I am just trying to refer to a world...
