You do need a big swing and fast arm speed to use Chinese rubbers. My shoulder will tell you everything you want to know. However, I'm rewarded with lots of control and spin but I just can't keep it up for lots of matches. One more thing. You can overcome incoming spin easier due to...

I can't imagine that he would be using a $15 rubber.

I put on my Bolo Dragon and I actually like it a lot. It's got fantastic grip/spin. I use it on my BH for short flicks and pushes. Doesnt' have much power away from the table but I don't use it far away. When compressed it gives a solid crack and very good feeling. I put on just a single...

I'm sorry but you can't call those rubbers sticky. If it can't hold a ball upside down then it's not sticky.

When they say "sticky" does it mean hold the ball upside down sticky or just somewhat tacky? They said "Guang" was supposed to be sticky but I didn't think it's sticky at all.

Hardness is due to sponge. Tackiness is due to top sheet. Why would one affect the other when not hitting?

Does it hold a ball for 10 seconds?

Of course at high levels every game has lots of strategy and tactics. But soccer to me is a bunch of people running around not using their hands. :LOL: The downfall of baseball is that there is so much going on underneath the surface the average person has no clue. That's why they call it...

Same argument to ban pips. This is going to get heated. 🍿 For my $0.02 I think pips do nothing for the game. What kind of audience would you get on TV when you show defensive or pips players floating balls back all day? I'd rather watch paint dry. :sleep:

I've asked that same question for awhile now and got nothing. I've since switched to Skyline which is still a little tacky. My guess is probably the chemical formula/additive to make it sticky was found to be hazardous so they stopped using it. I can't believe there are people who prefer H3...

According to the other thread Yasaka Bolo Dragon is very sticky.

If you search "Bold" dragon you find nothing. You have to search "BOLO". Lol

I think the LA China is tackier than C2

So if you can't beat them change equipment. Lol

Well if you have a winning brand milk it for everything it's worth. I'm pretty sure ML is getting his share of the revenue.

So every time you catch your rubber on the table it lifts off the blade. So now you have to add glue or else it will be loose. I just don't understand any advantage to have all this extra fluff hanging off your racquet.

Why do people cut the rubbers so big? They leave like 1/4 inch of extra that is flopping in the wind. It adds extra weight and can catch on the table.

Probably a protest move since his retirement decision is the only one he can make on his own.

If FZD played in the Bundeslige that would be like Michael Jordan playing in Euro basketball. You would probably have double the attendance.

It seems he retired from both WTT and ITTF. So that's a full complete retirement from Pro Table Tennis.
