Just recently been to a scammer-beware training session, so forgive the scepticism. But…. Brand new account - check. Quite extraordinary claim without proof - check. Question that doesn’t match the ability - check. Story that feels off - check. Classic too good to be true vibes - check. Smells...

Another heartbreaker for LGY. Gauzy looks to be evolving his game for legends exhibitions post retirement: strawberries, consecutive chops away from the table plus his usual lobs, sidespins…. that celebration wow!

Looking forward to the Gauzy vs LGY rematch.

So let me understand this: You want others to prove you right, even though you got nothing to substantiate your claims? Make it make sense.

Pot (boosted H3) meet kettle (slippery pips).

So much irony in his “branding”, he more and more comes off as a sore loser and anything but willing to “grind”. “Yes (I act as an immature) boi, let’s complain”

Thanks I’m going to suggest this for my club mate. He is at this point of his journey I was in 2022. We play quite similar, mainly controlling on BH to set up for stronger FH. He is using currently using D64 on Cybershape Carbon and from his feedback he is about 8.5/10 there in terms of the...

Bumping this thread as it should be still relevant. Do the Daiki manufactured rubbers show their best characteristics here? Stiga Mantra Pro Nexy Etika Pro Nittaku Hammond Z2

I suspect this could be where Zeed fits in under Zyre in their product range.

D64 seems like a rubber best suited for FH when you’re clearly stronger than your opponent. Its naturally lower arc encourages an aggressive playing style, pushing you to extend your opening loop into loop driving, with longer follow through and all. I think, facing players of similar or higher...

From reading user reviews and testing a fair few rubbers my list would be: Daiki: Mantra Pro H Hammond Z2 ESN: Rakza 9 Quantum X Pro Still there is no direct like for like replacement for D64 between its durability, light weight to sponge hardness ratio and low spin sensitivity (while still...

The true definition of a transactional relationship

OK you got me invested… If you chop double inverted, you first will need to get the best inverted or LP blocker at your club to explain how they are able to redirect force away from in front of the table i.e. so they don’t block balls directly out. They will explain in their terms a concept...

It has to be Donic Defplay Senso, especially as it can loop as well as most other 5 ply blades. It has a very high trajectory and extremely spinny both in backspin and topspin. If you get one below 82g it’s a very decent allround setup and more nimble close to the table compared to other...

Shan Xiaona gives hope to all of us suffering from a mid life EJ crisis

There is more momentum toward these inner composite + koto with larger headsizes 159mm+ With the bigger headsize you get the flex of those inner + limba while having the crispness of koto for close to the table backhand exchanges. H301/N301 was probably the first successful implementation then...

Donic Balsa Carbo Certran would be up there. Check the listed summary and specs on this one! Uncompromising attackers who hit the ball hard. Especially suitable when used with soft rubbers. Extremely light, very hard and stunningly fast Technology: 7 plies of Balsa (inner, 4mm), Limba (3&5)...

Can you do a short review on why you decided to change?

Yes you are on the right track about the weight distribution. It’s heavy rubber and/or handles that are too thin or hollowed out like Stiga WRB, Donic Senso, etc. You can try an experiment: sticky-tape a gold coin or fishing weight to the base of your handle. Although heavier, this will shift...
