The change in rubber's behavior after losing most of its tack isn't really that big, tbh. Even if you feel the difference, it's mostly on the short game, and even then it's not really that big of a difference where it requires you to tweak your technique.

Glayzer is your answer. It lasts almost forever, slower and spinnier than most rubbers. Rozena is also a good choice but Glayzer is perfect, imo.

I don't know who you play with but for sure he's not an amateur if you can't put the ball past him with a g09c. I have never played a game where I hope for my opponents to miss, I always look a way to end a point and blasting the ball with g09c is good enough. If you can't put the ball past your...

It was just a random number I assigned to myself. We don't have rating in Indonesia, we have division instead.

My rating is 1769, I think.

I see. Well, R9 is good. It's comparable to H3, you don't even need to boost it because it's powerful already even without boosting.

Just stick to Vega Pro H. It's not bad of a rubber and you don't have to bother with the whole boosting hassle.

Man, your blade is gorgeous. I'd like to get one.

Another 10kg and you'll officially become a basement player, sir. It's no longer power from the legs but power from body fat.

All this talk about rating takes me back to the good old day when I was at the height of my game, circa 2017-2018. I was good enough to be picked as one of the province's representatives to play in National Games. Back then I was using H301, Provincial H3 Orange Sponge boosted with 2 layers of...

I hit hard enough to blast the ball even with only unboosted B2/ H3 on an all wood, all round, 5 ply blade. It doesn't change the fact that Boosted H3 provincial is just better than unboosted one. What's the point on getting an H3 BS unboosted? Boosted H3 BS is better than almost any rubbers I...

Never talked about the tack here, I was talking about the sponge. You said you just need to boost H3. Unfortunately, a boosted H3 only lasts for a month, and you need to re-boost it. The feeling of the rubber after re-boosting it is just not the same anymore. I'm not a professional, but I sure...

The rubber is stretched indeed but it's not like the "tension" from the booster is still there. The way you phrase it as if it's enough to just stretch the rubber to get the tension. Boosting is indeed expanding and stretching the sponge, but the chemicals are the one that actually give the...

G09C is better than Hurricane 3 provincial when it comes to cost performance. It degrades slower than a boosted H3. I can get a month out of my boosted H3 BS and the next boosting just doesn't feel the same anymore. G09C tho seems to retain its spin and quality better than H3. It's better in the...

Sir, you have used R9 before and now you are using B3. Do you think B3 is similar to R9 or is it better?

I've always wanted T560. It looks gorgeous. She's a beauty. I'm eagerly waiting for your review.

Forehand topspin and no problem so far. Feels great and awesome. I don't notice the difference in spin back then and today. As a matter of fact, people are still using H3 and Tenergy with plastic ball. Even though those two rubbers are meant for celluloid. Barracuda, Vega Pro and older gen ESN...

Because Barracuda and Acuda offer the same as ESN's newest offerings. Anyway, Butterfly is the Apple of TT world. Everyone will use their product at the end of the day much like everyone will use iPhone because it's just that good.

Exactly by how difficult is it to put more force on plastic ball? Because if that is the case then Ma Long should have retired along with ZJK. H3 and Tenergy were meant for celluloid ball but those two reign supreme even till this day. The ball change is so insignificant you might as well say...

Spin sensitive rubber is good for spin generation and his style is exactly that. It's a bouncy rubber, sure it is but so what? It means he just needs to work on his touch. Getting another Tenergy rubber won't fix that. Even getting Dignics or Chinese rubbers won't fix his touch game just because...
