  1. Something stuck on the rubber?

    I thought this topic would more crowded.... I think this kind of treatment to a rubber is really beyond rule limit.

  5. WTT Star Contender Muscat 2025 Nov 17-22

    Super Flavien Coton! Really impressive, seems mentally stable enough to reach Felix level :)
  6. Something stuck on the rubber?

    Interesting point. If it's really sanding (which I tend to believe, as it's too geometric and it's definitely not a sticker/adhesive), I would call it against the rule. Otherwise I could randomly sand all rubber surface to obtain unpredictable shots. Edit: I don't mean he deliberately did it to...
  7. WTT Champions Frankfurt 2025 - 4-9 NOV 2025

    What a display of intelligent gameplan by Samara. No rush, focused and precise FH well placed. Great match! Congratulations!
  8. WTT Champions Frankfurt 2025 - 4-9 NOV 2025

    Not enough to justify what I've seen. Anton is great player (one of my favourite actually) and played solid shots; but, from my amateur point of view, quality of Truls balls were lower than usual and he had no tactic or gameplan but simply put the ball over the net. He played "soft and...
  9. WTT Champions Frankfurt 2025 - 4-9 NOV 2025

    To be clear. My speculation was not based on particular interests on WTT points/seeds/draws/ecc... It was just first thing in mind while seeing Truls playing "not as Truls" or even not as a random player fighting for winning points as expected, that's all
  10. WTT Champions Frankfurt 2025 - 4-9 NOV 2025

    100% agree. I was really hyped for the match (as I like Anton's playstyle), but I didn't see any "match". And seems to me that Truls failed to "stage it properly", almost as he wanted to send a message to someone. If you want to make it real, you get angry, shout, try variations or anything...
  11. Upgrade Rubbers for Tibhar BSS1

    not a fan of cross posting, but you can read here my sensation with BSS1 https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/which-7ply-wood-blade-after-clipper.37668/post-541470 assembled with: - FH: Xiom Omega V Tour max - BH: Andro Rasanter R47 max Omega V Tour: feels dead on first 3/4 hours (same...
  12. Which 7ply wood blade after Clipper?

    A little review/comparison after 12/15 playing hours. Overall sensation about BSS1 (with Xiom Omega V Tour on FH + Andro Rasanter R47 on BH): Blade is quite forgiving, feels "easy to play", good control on block. It has 3 main "gears" in my opinion: - slow/short play has good touch/feeling...
  13. Cheapest but decent first defence setup

    Hello ZFT, thanks for advice. To be clear (as I read a bit misunderstanding), with my "spending money on TT stuff for my son", I just meant that next time I would spend money on new stuff for him (which happens evey 3 months), I will also buy the 2 defence rubbers; no hurry. My son is doing...
  14. Cheapest but decent first defence setup

    Ok, thank you for the advice. But generally speaking aside from models, for chop defence + few "attacking" topspin, low or high mm rubbers?
  15. Cheapest but decent first defence setup

    I agree regarding MarkV sponge as too stiff. In the next round of "spending money on TT stuff for my son" I'll ask here what kind of rubbers I can add to cart. Specifications are: soft, easy, durable, cheap. Get prepared :)
  16. Cheapest but decent first defence setup

    Deal done. Now I have Donic DefPlay + 2 MarkV for my defence setup. Tried first time yesterday and it's too soon too judge, but blade is very very slow, which is ok, but I were not ready to push every drive also in warming up :D And you can definitely feel the bigger head size while playing...
  17. Holiday in Germany (Schwarzwald) week 32-33

    Hello, no rainy days, so no need to join any place... but I was positively suprised by the amount of outdoor tables you can find in the area. Every "spielplatz" or any playground area has 1 or even 2 tables, and they are relatively new and in good shape. Congratulations :)
  18. Which 7ply wood blade after Clipper?

    @Crillo : by the way, just curiosity, as I see you use a Korbel SK7, how do you rate it in term of vibration? I had awful experience with Korbel 5ply (too much vibration ad loose feeling when hitting). Has SK7 same "philosophy"? edit: awful instead of terrible (as "terrible" in English could...
  19. Which 7ply wood blade after Clipper?

    Based only on internet reviews/comparison and characteristics, I'm fascinating by BSS1. Think I'll go with this one after summer holidays. Keep you updated. Thank you
