  1. Best (DIY) sponge to apply glue

    I try to repurpose old rubber. One use for them is a jar opener. They really let you get a good grip when you have a stuck jar. I put them under rugs so the don't slip and move around. I use them underneath something that vibrates like a fan or motor and they isolate the vibrations. There...
  2. Revolution No.3 Cleaner makes the topsheet tacky?

    You mean the one in the bottle with the screw on cap? I thought it would "rejuvenate" the rubber but I didn't notice any more tackiness after use. However as a cleaner it works good. Using only 2 drops per side of rubber my bottle lasted me 3 years! The only downside is that tiny screw on...
  3. best rubber for bh flip/flick?

    I go with the tackiest I can find. I've used Bolo Dragon, Bloom Power, Tau II and even Rakza Z. The tackiness helps to flip the spin and grip the ball. You don't want something with too much spring to control the shot.

    That's not European.

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

    It's amazing how many Brazilians already know about Hugo. Lot's of my Brazilian friends that don't play TT messaged me about his win. I'd like to see a picture of the parade he will have when he returns. It will be like Carnival.

  8. Bloom power not tacky at all?

    Loved the Loki tack and feel but it developed a bubble within a week of using it.
  9. Bloom power not tacky at all?

    My Bloom Power is not really tacky but does have good grip. I can lift heavy spin as long as I make good contact with fast acceleration. I did get the Yasaka Bold Dragon and it's much more tacky than the Bloom Power. I would say they're both good but the Yasaka is slightly better on short...
  10. Yasaka Razka or rising dragon

    How long will it hold a ball upside down? btw my H3 is not tacky anymore.
  11. Has anyone tried Hovering Dragon Dynamic Version?

    Is this tacky like Bold Bolo Dragon? Somebody at Yasaka needs to work on their naming. Shouldn't this be called "Flying" Dragon if they're translating directly from Chinese?
  12. Best (DIY) sponge to apply glue

    If you wet the sponges before use and squeeze out the excess you can reuse them many times over. I rinse the sponge right after I'm done to wash out any glue but do not squeeze because glue will compress the sponge then it won't expand back to original shape. I average 3-5 times reuse for each...

  16. How to monetize table tennis?

    You need to find a stash of Ritalin or Adderall. Being in the medical field I'm sure you would have access to those. Make some connections in the Psych department and they can find you some free samples.

  18. How to monetize table tennis?

    If you don't have a problem living on bread and water go for it. Otherwise go to the golf range.
  19. More tacky = more spin??

    You can still find tacky rubbers. Most Chinese style rubbers are still tacky. Loki, Bloom, Yasaka dragons to name a few.
