  1. New enticing upcoming blade

    I just got my pro version last week, played once so far at the club, feels slightly more controllable and has a slightly more woody feel than the non-pro version. Haven't compared the thickness yet, but I'll check later when I have time.
  2. Exam that décides my fate

    … I hated that class so much, so many meaningless things to memorize.
  3. TTD Equipment reviews

    I feel you, I always say if you can’t be a pro level player, then at least you can get pro level gear, so you can be 1/2 pro. 😉
  4. Exam that décides my fate

    Good luck. 😆
  5. Another Drama (DHS LONG 5 Provincial or Commercial

    Well then, at least it has the H code on the other side, which is an indication for a letters edition w968. Keep in mind that this is only true for the new version.
  6. Another Drama (DHS LONG 5 Provincial or Commercial

    It’s really hard to understand what you are saying, but I think the gist of it is whether that blade is a letters edition w968. So just from the serial numbers it looks fine as a letters edition w968. And please post a pic of the info card, that’ll help to decide. also, could you stop talking...

    Yes they are
  8. DHS Hurricane hardness

    Sponge acts more or less like a spring in this situation, meaning it stores energy, so the thicker it is the more energy it can store, so the top end speed will differ a bit. Thicker sponges are also heavier, which is another big reason to choose different thicknesses to achieve the weight you...

  11. New enticing upcoming blade

    It’s stiffer than most inner composite blades, but still softer than outer.
  12. New enticing upcoming blade

    Sorry, no pics for now since I’m traveling.
  13. New enticing upcoming blade

    Yea, they ship worldwide for a fee (about $20), and actually if you buy from tt11 there’s a 5% discount for every 50 euro on that order (up to 30%), so you need to factor that in as well. What I usually do is I buy a few rubbers that I know I’ll be using in the future, or ask friends if they...
  14. Deceptive pendulum serve

    Pure topspin and pure down spin is quite difficult to serve with the same pendulum motion, however if you add side spin to it it’ll be a lot easier, the timing is the key, i.e. when in your stroke do you hit the ball.
  15. New enticing upcoming blade

    I got mine on tt-japan.net and tt11, yeah I got two… don’t ask why lol and prott is legit, at least all products I bought from them are. And if you factor in the 30% discount on tt11, h3 Neo bs is also about $60 ish, but remember prott doesn’t offer free shipping, and right now only ems is the...
  16. Should I upgrade to a Nittaku Acoustic?

    Just in case you do buy Nittaku Acoustic , you’ll also need to consider the handle size, I like the SG Special (says G-Handle on the blade surface). And to give you an idea of what’s the difference between the different handles, standard is flat and thin, large is flat and wide, sg is thicker...
  17. Style choices

    I think for amateur players like us, we would benefit from mostly controlled play in close to mid distance from the table. I’m not sure what you mean by defensive style, but my understanding is that’s mostly block/lob/chop at mid to long distance, and counter attack/loop only when a chance...
  18. Very clever business.

    Yeah, keep telling yourself that.
  19. Very clever business.

    Well, the world is like this because people like you. Always trying to see something that isn't there, not everyone is out there to get you. And the simple fact is, this world runs on money, all products are there to bring the most profit to the manufacturer. So depending on the situation, they...
  20. Very clever business.

    That’s a very bad example… please read my previous post. I said if a new product reached the performance goals, and the lifespan is acceptable, that’s it. If the lifespan is too long, then they will figure out ways to cut corners, which in most cases is using less quality materials. And in the...
