  1. Choice between T05fx, rozena and T19

    Nothing is wrong with your equipment. It's more than good enough for your playstyle so fat. 05FX is great for everything, it's not losing out to any rubbers. Heck, it's more forgiving. No need to change here. Sameg goes for Rozena. It has enough spin, ZYl used to use this and she was world #1...
  2. Why do Zhang Jikes Movements Look so clean?

    I wonder if that slight increase in weight really matters or not to pros. Nothing really changes with the ball changes. Ma Long was still dominating back then minus the final. Zhang Jike was still destroying people left and right when it mattered. Fan has always bee like this. Europeans are...
  3. Seeking Advice on Equipment Upgrade

    729 Super FX Blue Sponge is your answer for FH. Moon Pro Hard for your BH. I think these two rubbers are good enough.
  4. My experience with Chinese rubbers

    Speaking of experience with chinese cheap rubbers, mine has always been very good. I've gotten my hands on several of them: 1. H3. The only H3 I didn't try is the 37 version. 2. Volant Phoenix. It was a really good experience. It's a bit weaker than H3 but not much different really. 3. Qiji...
  5. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Just a little update on R9. Yesterday I took it off and peeled off the glue on the sponge. After that, I re-glued the rubber and had some session with it. The rubber's property changed. It's softer and I can feel the ball dig deeply to the sponge. It's getting faster but then I notice slight...
  6. Is there a way to fix the top ply or stop it from splintering? (Photos attached)

    I used superglue around the edge of the blade. Every new blade of mine receives similar treatment.
  7. Rubbers Shrinking?

    Can't comment on EL-D but EL-P does shrink after a while. Considering these two rubbers are still from one family, I'd say EL-D will shrink just like its brother.
  8. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    It is. Maybe the factory boosting is still there, I don't know. Boosted H3 Provincial BS Vega China
  9. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    I agree that everything is relative but at the same time, it's quite true if you look at it from a different angle. I mean, I have been using unboosted B2 Gold and unboosted Volant Phoenix on FH. It's undeniably faster than those two rubbers. For me, even unboosted B2 Gold is fast enough to end...
  10. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    R9 is faster and more powerful it's not even comparable
  11. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Changed my FH rubber to Loki R9 a few days ago and an unboosted volant phoenix on my BH. Previously, I had B2 Gold on FH and Moon 12 on BH. I slapped these two chinese rubbers on my newly trusted Loki V5. The blade is very head heavy and heavy. R9 is a great rubber. Powerful, even with a small...
  12. What is the best ESN Hybrid rubber for FH?

    The experience I have had is exactly the same as yours. Two days ago I tried to play N80 again after a few months of letting it rot. It is wonderful, lol. Counterlooping is still godly but now, the loop and push are loaded with massive spin. What a strange rubber, lol
  13. Table tennis a dull and easy lazy sport?

    It's a dull sport. I skip the part that is only push and third ball attacks. It's different when I'm the one who is playing. I enjoy winning from third ball attack or my opponent can't return my serve. Is it an easy sport? Yes, anyone can do it. To be good at it? No. The stress and the mental...
  14. Big Dipper, Loki Arthur China experience.

    Interesting. So, these rubbers that take time to break in is getting better the more we used them? They don't experience degradation in quality instead they got better. People should copy this technology. As for me, I think the term breaking in is more like the tack is slowly disappearing and...
  15. What is the best ESN Hybrid rubber for FH?

    You know, this is a new and good way of looking at it. I suppose this is correct too. I've always thought that to get better at spinning, you need slower blade so that you'll learn how to spin the ball by hitting through the sponge.
  16. What is the best ESN Hybrid rubber for FH?

    Honestly, I still think Off- blade is too fast, lol. I, myself, am using an Allround blade and it's more than fast enough for me. I'm even using unboosted B2 on my forehand. I think that getting a thinner rubber would make it even faster.
  17. Got me a 1 ply kiso-hinoki jpen

    Get one that Ryu Seung Min used in his Olympic final.
  18. Can I bring many rackets with different setup to a tournament?

    Last time I did this, everything went all wrong for me. While I did give a good fight, it was very frustrating. At that time I was using Vega Pro with Vega China and Tenergy. My friend's blade was HRT Clipper with ELP and I Vega Pro. I lost 3-2 against someone I always beat 3-0. Passed to the...
  19. a

    Yinhe Y-13 splinters too but it's cheap enough to get another without the need to seal it.
  20. How to play against high topspin loops?

    It looks harder but it's not that hard once you get used to it. I've watched pingskill video on youtube about this and slowly implemented it to my forehand and backhand. I don't have enough confidence to do it on my backhand tho. Hit through the sponge. You won't be able to hit it on the first...
