  1. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    It's very likely this. As much as I would love to glaze Hugo, his win against WCQ was pretty shaky.
  2. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    You are saying Kid Harimoto hit the ball as hard as FZD and prime ZJK? I have seen it all now.. ZJK and ML were pretty much neck to neck in every encounter except for Rio. Even then it was an even game for most of the match.
  3. Any blades still in production similar to Xiom Hugo HAL or Butterfly Moonbeam?

    It was discontinued a year or so before his WC success. Still, it's kinda moronic that they discontinued the very blade used by the only face of the company? That said, Rxton 9 on Moonbeam FL is superb. Why did I switch blades when Moonbeam feels better than Pro 05 and Teslon Speed?
  4. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    He doesn't really need to be hot week in and week out. He could be the usual him for WTT tour and find his mojo in the events that actually matters, e.g. Olympic, WTTC, WTT Finals, etc. just like ZJK.
  5. Player retirement thread (not only for Japanese players)

    Lin Shidong. Twice has he gone missing in the final that actually matters. WCQ has improved so he doesn't have to retire.

    It's Viscaria minus the carbon. I'm sorry, I didn't get the joke until it was too late
  7. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    Hugo HAL is like BTY Moonbeam, isn't it? Seems like it's time to dig and bring back Moonbeam FL and be Hugo. Lol. What is golden Viscaria W968, H3, and D09C? It's Hugo's time baby!
  8. New Xiom Blades Series: Hugo Calderano and Lee Seungsoo (TMX / ALX)

    That being said, you guys should stop looking for AJH blade. Get Hugo's blade and C55 or C57.5 now. Be Hugo, don't be AJH
  9. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    Hugo's power is rent free in his head, lol LSD's short game is solied- not as delicate as ML's and ZJK's but definitely up there with WCQ. The thing is, he doesn't really rely on it; his backhand flick is just out of this world, I'd say even better than ZJK and FZD. It's the very reason why he...
  10. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    Well, both LSD and WCQ have gotten some wins thanks to their super illegal hook serve when things get tough, especially LSD. Regardless tho, WCQ is still the current best and strongest player in the world. He has technique and power in spades just like Hugo. He's pretty strong in rallies, imho...
  11. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    He's preparing for the hairdryer.
  12. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    Impossible, but sales of C55 will increase. It would be nice though to see H3 being knocked down a few pegs, lol.
  13. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    You can't get any better than a fully form WCQ really. If Hugo is like WCQ, God saves the CNT, lol. The only way to stop that nuclear powered FH of WCQ and Hugo is to call FZD back.
  14. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    CNT tears is my happiness. Time to change Rxton 9 to Xiom C55 and hit the gym like crazy. Gotta prepare for the bombing in the next tournament. Can't have these cannons out of juice before the game ends.
  15. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    See? Hugo should just do what Hugo does best-bomb them all as hard as possible. LSD's playstyle is kinda like XX. He gets the ball back all the time, like boa, but he isn't as stable as XX. It was clear that LSD was scared of those huge FH and BH. He was so afraid of those, several times he...
  16. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    Hugo should just do what he does best, bomb it from the back from both sides. It worked well against WCQ, it will work against LSD too. Hopefully. I remember Faraji did exactly that to LSD back in Asia Cup or something.
  17. Best Method to boost H3 BS

    It will bubble regardless of the glue you put before the booster. Bubbling happens because of the expansion of the sponge, not the oil that reaches the topsheet. The expansion weakens the bond between the sponge and the topsheet, and separation happens where the bond is weakest.
  18. Best Method to boost H3 BS

    It depends on each person. Personally, I liked it best when I applied one layer of booster directly to the sponge, waited for it to dry, then two layers of glue, and pasted it on the blade.
  19. WTT CONTENDER TAIYUAN 2025

    Both are way too similar in that regards lol
