Yes, I did look at reflectoid and it's certainly an option. Do you have experience with it?

I'm transitioning away from LP's on my BH. I want to become a bit more attacking with controlled and spinny loops but would still like to be able to chop. Does anyone have any experience with Donic Slice 40 CD or the Tibhar Super Defence 40 as these are both rubbers I'm considering in the...

TT monster, I didn't say that you said JSH style was superior...instead I asked the question as to whether it is (or potentially could be) superior, and I asked that question in light of your comment about JSH supplementing his defensive shots with strong loops (thereby having a wider variety of...

So does that mean that a modern defensive style like that of JSH is the most superior style, all over variables being equal? That sort of makes sense when you think about it from the perspective of shot variety (where someone like JSH can loop but can also chop). So perhaps we could even ask if...

I'm fascinated by the various table tennis styles and have been thinking recently about whether or not some styles are inherently superior to other's. Modern table tennis is obviously dominated at the highest levels by attacking/looping style players...but is this because of a "survival of the...

Thanks guys, lesson learned!

I don't belive my blade was sealed when I bought it...but I put three coats of varnish on it myself, which appears to be far too much in hindsight!

So do you recommend that I varnish a blade and then use sandpaper, or sandpaper the blade and then add varnish? Obviously my current blade is already varnished but I plan on getting a new blade in a month or two.

I should add that my current blade is a donic sensor appelgren all play (v1)

I'm really struggling with glues at the moment. I've tried several different brands of table tennis glue and none of them seems to hold the rubber securely. At first I thought I was just being unlucky with dodgy batches of glue, but the longer this goes on it must be something else. I've even...

thanks. I'll take a look online.

What the strongest (and legal) table tennis Glue that you can buy? I'm so fed up of gluing new rubbers only to have them lift away from the blade within minutes of fixing them down (and yes, this is after the glue on the rubber and blade has been allowed to dry). Thanks

Thanks guys!

Are there any examples of players playing at a reasonably high level that alternate between different playing styles depending upon their mood or who they are playing? I started out playing modern Defence with LP's on the backhand, and I'm now trying to learn to play a looping game with inverted...

Having switched from a modern defensive style using LP's on the BH, I'm having to re-learn my game a bit and am struggle to find a decent inverted rubber for the BH. I'm trying to become a more attacking player so want to focus on topspin loops and aggressive blocking on the BH. I've been using...

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

Are there any live streaming sites I can visit from here in the UK? Looks like the BBC iPlayer is updating with results but I want to actually watch the matches! One of the BBC channels says its showing table tennis (it should be on my TV right now as I type this) but for some reason its...

Can anyone recommend a glue that would be a cheaper alternative to using actual table tennis glue? It'll need to be able to glue table tennis rubbers to varnished mdf. thanks stuart

I'll probably buy a new one and use a glue sheet instead.

Yes, glue was dried (so that it turns from white to clear).
