  1. Best Chinese sticky rubbers that don't need boosting

    Had a quick go with the Yinhe Jupiter 3 tour again on a Yinhe V-14 Pro (100+g monster), now that it is less humid, the tack can do its job again and was quite nice to play. Lifts the ball easily, controlled while countering and easy to play short. Speed was enough, the sponge did start to break...
  2. Setup Recommendations, for bh rubber, on tmxi pro

    No, I didn't really try since then. Durability seems quite decent on BH. It looks like they are still sold out on their website anyways.
  3. Best Chinese sticky rubbers that don't need boosting

    Well... I did try it, but not a boosted h3. I did some first impressions of it in a thread before. Not sure if this will help. Also I used AI to correct spelling mistakes and noticed it also changed more than just that, so feel free to ask again
  4. Want to correct my blade : please give your thoughts

    I used to play the old model of it (without the orange on the handle) for like 8 years and was my first "real" blade. It is very controlled, not too slow with the right rubbers and for ~50 bucks a great and capable blade. For a beginner a fitting blade to learn and grow with. And I assume a...
  5. Advantages and disadvantages

    Those rubbers are for advanced and agressive players and you will most likely have a hard time getting consistent spin or quality in general. Consider something softer, easier to play and better suited for intermediate players. Nittaku Fastarc C1, Xiom Vega Hybrid Euro, Hybrid MK FX, Victas...
  6. Nittaku Acoustic Carbon G-Revision

    I mean both setups are great. You just have to try and see what suits you better.
  7. New blade to be released by Stiga this month

    true, now that I looked it up
  8. New blade to be released by Stiga this month

    So basically a cheaper Dynasty Carbon with limba? Could be nice
  9. Penhold in Europe

    Out of all the kids in our club (just a local club), I'm sure most have never seen a pro match before. Especially not the younger ones. Other sports just dominate here. I think more than 50% won't even know Timo Boll. So if they play any type of penhold it is because they were tought by their...
  10. Questions about new setup

    Most All to Off- 5 ply Woods will do the job. Look for some you think look decent, read a few a reviews and if they say its good go for it. Just dont overspent. I would pair it with Vega Europe. Its softness will make it easy to control and easy to generate spin, while supporting you with a bit...
  11. New Stiga Mantra Pro

    Sounds almost same to Nexy Etika, it shines more with full swings or hitting. For short game it does lack a little bite and is the only thing that annoys me too. With the harder version it was easier to let the soft topsheet work, because of the reduced bounce. Since Mantra Pro can be found so...
  12. Victas Swat Spin rubber (made in Japan)

    Probably lighter, normal Swat Spin is softer than G1 and Daiki seems to be quite light in general compared to most ESN products. My Etikas where all around 45g cut +- a few gramms. You can expect something like 45g and below for Victas Swat Spin aswell, depending on thickness and natural...
  13. German league TTBL 2025-26

    Does somebody know how many active viewers Dyn has with TT? Can't imagine it beeing that high most of the time.
  14. Nexy Spira available in Korea

    Sa Nice! Yeah in europe the best offer I got was around 40Euros which was too big of a risk for me to buy because there are practically no english reviews. At 110rmb this might be a nobrainer if performance is somewhat close to other Hybrids or sticky rubbers.
  15. Nexy Spira H

    As far as I know this is their competitor for chinese rubbers in the korean/asian market and has a very good price there aswell. I think the sponge is more dynamic than other chinese style more Euro/Jap like. Sadly there is very little amount of information about it from people who've tried it.
  16. Butterfly Zyre 03

    Guess I will return with a brand new Rubber in late October. I hope I won't pay more than 80Euros in Japan, a price I would never pay if this wouldn't be so different than anything else on the market. Can't imagine how unaffordable it'll be in Europe. Also I wonder how people will choose the...
  17. Nexy Spira H

    Interesting hardness. I wonder why this was chosen
  18. About Xiom allround S...

    Yes that is true, ideally you would have to test them beforehand. If not possible you would have to ask someone. Those ALL, OFF can kinda work if you just compare from the same brand. And even then you might feel it differently... TT Equipment is horrible and easy to get lost in.
  19. About Xiom allround S...

    Weight, and different types of wood -> different hardness/stiffness are most likely at place. Also, ALL isn't anything specified so one brand might call it ALL while the other would call it OFF-. It really depends on their own lineups and evaluation. For me Xioms Allround S fits ALL+ quite...
  20. Xiom Clothing - Quality and sizing

    I own one of their "Austin" shirts, which is made in Korea. I really like the fabric, very flexable and breathable. Fitment is nice, more boxy. I am tall and slender, so I usually wear M-L. With this shirt I wear XL. So have a look at the sizing chart before buying. Sadly mine got a bit damaged...
