After using TSP/Victas SWAT series, I’ve been recommending that to a lot of people. Reasonably priced, good feeling, really good quality and pre-sanded shoulders. It’s also been the best selling blade series in Japan for many years now. I would recommend the SWAT or even the SWAT 5pw if you want...

If you find it hard to control, and lacks feeling, and can’t get used to it even after training for a few weeks. Then it’s probably right to say you should switch back to using an all wood blade, preferably a softer one.

@passifid is right, that looks like a gouge, and it's on the side of the handle, you would have felt that piece came off when holding the blade while playing. So I think that you didn't check the blade carefully when buying it second hand, and after a while you saw it and thought it "broke".

I didn't really pay attention to these brands, so I can't say I know. I have a few friends who plays table tennis that's from China, they all use the big brands, DHS, Butterfly, Nittaku, TSP/Victas, etc. So from the limited data I have, I'd say people who are serious about playing don't use them? 😂

Oh and I just realized that it's a second hand blade... so why aren't you talking to the person who sold you that blade, why keep ranting about Butterfly in so many threads?

So? I still don’t see where the problem is, you got a blade, then you claim it “broke” after 20 hours of normal use, then you complain about butterfly not responding, but you’re actually contacting their distributors not butterfly themselves. Now in the other post you said they responded, and...

Pretty sure solvent glue is basically... wait for it... speed glue

Actually, no it’s not how butterfly treats their customers, it’s their distributors. Butterfly didn’t sell that blade directly to you, they sold it to one of their distributors, and then that distributor sold it to you. Also I really doubt you actually sent an email to butterfly. Even if you...

I didn’t play with either for too long, but salc feels stiffer while szlc feels bouncier, if I have to choose i would pick szlc just because it’s a little easier to control for me.

That would be kind of funny 😂 But now thinking about it, there are just so many different terms in Chinese that describes similar things depending on the slight differences in stroke, placement, or even player intent. For example, undercutting the ball in general would be 搓, but if it lands...

I’ve actually never heard of 大形变 before, only know 整体形变 and 局部形变 lol

If you can put the original Chinese here it’ll help the translation, but anyways, here’s what I think you mean: eat the ball -> 吃球 or 持球 -> dwell time bottom plate -> 底板 -> blade high-elasticity -> 高弹 -> why do we need to translate this again? large-deformation -> 高形变 -> if this is describing a...

I know you’re upset your blade is “broken”, but you’ve been talking about it in multiple threads, we know… btw, you’re just one of tens of thousands people who bought BTY blades, one broken blade can’t prove anything. on the other hand , super alc feels very different from super zlc, at least...

When saying something or someone is a "pro", the word could be describing either one of two things, the level of work, or who does the job. Need I remind you all those software has the "pro" in the name? It's because said software can produce professional level of work, that's why it's being...

Yes, TMXi feels much more controllable than Trinity, and after about a week of practice I'm getting used to the feel and I must say I'm liking it a lot. Not just how it plays, but also the handle, it grips so nice in the hand. I know that Trinity was made in Korea, but I'm not sure if the same...

The problem I have with Revolution No3 is the smell. I can't find a medium viscosity one that is odorless, the only odorless one I can find is normal, which is a little too runny to my liking.

That doesn’t contradict what I’m saying, you can practice on your own, you just need to know how to generate spin, then you start experimenting. And if receiving is reading spin, you should also know servicing is hiding the spin, so everything you practice in a serve should be based on this. As...

Well, serves you can practice on your own, you just need a rough idea of what needs to be done to get the ball spinning the way you want, then get a bucket of balls and practice. Receive is more about reading the spin, and once you understand how to read then there's nothing too different than...

Maybe I’ll buy that next time, I also like low/medium viscosity glue, which is why I’m using butterfly freechack pro ii right now.

Joining the conversation on how to test equipment. I said this once before, but I don't want to copy paste it here, the general idea is: the way people reviewing equipment are too subjective. Most if not all reviews for table tennis equipment you can find are all something like "when playing...
