  1. Rubber value

    If you play with Rakza and you like it, it's after all not that expensive. You can use your old ones on the spare blades... However, if you want to put some newish clothes on old blades, you could do worse than getting some sheets of Xiom Vega (any, just not the China). Much cheaper than Rakza...
  2. Win a new batch of Butterfly Easy Ball 40+

    And anyone in England got them? According to BTY they have been sent a long time ago...
  3. Which blades and rubbers use children in China

    Sorry, forgot them. There were some as well. Not many... (I remember one 729 and one 729 FX, out of a dozen bats)
  4. Which blades and rubbers use children in China

    I've just come back from China, and when I took my son to train I looked at all the bats available at the club for kids. A lot of cheap Palio blades (all wood, some 5 some 7 ply), with H3 and / or CJ8000. Some Stiga blades (a few Off NCT, some hardwood) with similar rubbers and Bomb tensors...
  5. Tibhar Drinkhall Range 2015

    Good news. I can only encourage you to include such info as the composition of all these blades. After many (expensive) tries I find myself firmly set to Limba outer layer, and I am now not even looking at anything else. As a coach it also helps to recomment the allround ones if I know what to...
  6. Win a new batch of Butterfly Easy Ball 40+

    I'll tell you when I'll have them. I still have not received them. Very good Butterfly, keep going.
  7. Win a new batch of Butterfly Easy Ball 40+

    Well, I'm still waiting...
  8. Phone with best camera, also for video?

    With the Denver camera, you'll only get about 110 minutes of footage from a new battery, so maybe not quite good enough to film a training session + matches...
  9. Sponge shrinking

    The only XIOM I know that shrinks a bit is Vega Japan. Other Vega and OMEGA IV do not shrink. As I am used to glueing rubbers, and I know not to stretch them, the sole reason for shrinking is loss of booster. You can then either avoid it by buying the right rubbers, or live with it (and...
  10. Win a new batch of Butterfly Easy Ball 40+

    Same here. No news, no balls.
  11. Have there been any world class left-handed choppers?

    Good =/= top My emphasis was on the potential difficulty to reach the top international level. I have little doubt there will be very good LHP defenders in many countries. Just maybe not in the top 10 players.
  12. Have there been any world class left-handed choppers?

    Could it be simply explained by the fact that it's better for a defender to have to defend (counter) with the FH on a standard righty attack? RHP (right handed players) will be able to put side spin taking the ball away from the opponent when attacking the natural diagonal (FH/FH). In that...
  13. Dodgy Tenergy Rubbers

    I have seen the "butterfly" letters being damaged and falling off on a 100% legit T05.
  14. Dodgy Tenergy Rubbers

    Difficult to judge from photos. I have seen real Tenergy with damaged topsheet a bit like that, with parts of the letters going off, because of the contact with fingers. The topsheet colour, sponge colour and fonts look OK (from my screen). I'd venture the player's grip is very strong, as you...
  15. New awesome Nittaku rubber - Fastarc

    ChrisTTfan, this is your first post, about a shop no-one knows, even in the UK (I'd bet), which sells only this rubber (Fastarc G1), no other rubbers, no other blades. If you're linked to that shop in any way, you'd better say it clearly.
  16. Win a new batch of Butterfly Easy Ball 40+

    Well, this is getting a bit long... I've had my notification I won on 19/05, and gave my address 20/05. How long does it take to send a box of balls ?
  17. What price for this Primorac black tag?

    Guys, My friend wants to sell his old blade. It's a BTY Primorac, ST, black tag. Age unknown, weight unknown as I only saw it today at a competition. Here are the pictures: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/yzcjrqnrhoai243/AAAZefGiMw_Zffy7AvhbhR-Fa?dl=0 Can anyone tell me how much this is worth...
  18. FS* NEW Unopened Tenergy 05/64/80. $54/sheet. Good Price.

    The real questions are Has he sold any on any forum? Are the customers happy? Are the rubbers genuine?
  19. FS: New Tenergy 64 and Tenergy 80

    I can't really see how the picture of a sealed T80 would make such a difference... Anyway... https://www.dropbox.com/s/rxbptwbzvc035hp/2015-06-09%2022.21.52.jpg Still here, stored in the dark, at room temperature, in the study, waiting patiently for a player who will take it home and treat it...
  20. The stores to buy Tenergy rubbers in London, UK and Paris, Fr?

    They might. But they'll be a bit concerned delivering to a hotel I think, as for all internet sales. Advance payment may be required. Best would be to give them a call: 00 33 4 75 44 20 34. There's a good chance they speak English.
