    I recently bought two sets of paddles for friends that are just starting to play, both costs around $100, the rubbers are the same: DHS Hurricane 8 Soft (FH) + DHS Skyline 3-60 Soft (BH), the blades I chose were Stiga OC CR, and Victas SWAT 5PW.

  6. smart table tennis racket

    I backed it just because lol I think I’m a different type of EJ, I buy blades mostly just because it looks interesting, not because I want to use them long term. 😂 But if they just happens to be pretty good, I’ll use them long term. Most recent example… bought a Mina ito blade, and also the...
  7. Hurricane Long 5 GOLDEN version review

    When I was recently shopping for a w968, I saw the HL5 Gold listed, and I thought about it. But in the end, I just bought two No.1 w968's and called it a day. Seems like I made the right choice.

  13. carbon blade with spin ability

    Everyone have different techniques, and it results in drastically different amount of speed and spin on the same equipment.

  15. Viscaria Super ALC release!

    Oh man, that's some serious discussion going on here. lol I tried out the blade yesterday for the first time, trained for about 2 hours or so. I liked the blade in softer shots, i.e. serve, push and other things that don't require much power output, but I find it a bit hard to control when...
