No i refer to H3N. I used H3 before and I dont like it as much. It comes veeery slightly boosted from factory so it lasts 1-2 sessions max, then it's a normal H3, so that's why you need to boost. For me, I learnt with 729 and then H3N from the chinese at my club, they said all kids in china do...

Not really because i only played 09c on BH, but i have tried it often in training on FH and I dont need too much throw. The best way to explain this is in static detailing the FH movement step by step so I can show that the throw comes from the body, and that a high throwing FH rubber is...

It is possible the you prefer 09c yes, matter of taste, I have 09c on BH and for my forehand I really don't like it, throws way too high. I find it weird though that a H3N well boosted would play bad on W968, that almost seems impossible to me haha but I believe you is fine, it's a matter of...

Yes agreed, value for money is just incredible, I think in the same way!! And man serve and receive are a nightmare for the opponents, the pendulum well done omg <3 Agreed on half long balls too. How did you like the varnish and what did you use? To me it felt like the blade become a bit...

Hey @Matteones , I agree with you, for me there is nothing better than a well boosted H3N BS on forehand, it's almost magical. You do boost more often than I do, I re-boost every 2 months (max twice) cause I'm a bit lazy and don't want to damage the blade so much (I don't like the feel of the...

H3N is made to be boosted at home, they don't boost it like all tensors at the factory so you can fine tune it t your own liking, that's why it's the best rubber for the FH for me, I make it just like I want it. But without boosting, it will not play how it's supposed to play. Unless you boost...

Hahahahahaha you are so right xD

Yes both are table tennis sponges but I prefer the top one, I had a DHS one like the below example and did not enjoy it :)

This doesn't exist, I have come to the same conclusion after searching a while like you, that's why everybody still uses H3N :) And I agree with the people above, throw angle is the rubber, blade and person combined. Nice thread to read.

I'm pretty sure this is either: 80% to 100% technical issue. Sharing a video with us here would be the best way to know, no shame in doing that, we are all amateurs and we all look worse on video than we think ;) 0 to 20% (perhaps) gear issue: how old are the sheets? How do you store the...

As others have mentioned, these are the correct protective films to use, always non-sticky (blue version): https://dhs-tt.uk/product/protection-film-rp12/. The sticky ones (red) damage the tackiness and collect dust, this is not good for tackiness either. A couple other thoughts: - Do not apply...

Sorry I missed this amongst all other notifications, my bad! Anyways, happy to give my 2 cents on the topic of course :) Also, I have not tried the Cybershape Pure, only carbon and wood (carbon was CWT, wood not), so I can only comment from my experience on that. By the way, these 2 review may...

As @passifid just mentioned, what you are looking for does not exist. This is because a rubber with a high throw angle like dignics 09c or Razka Z is more difficult to control and learn with that your linear Razka 7. That said, there are degrees in this. Razka Z is easier to control than 09c...

Yes I fully understand and can agree to what you say here. Plenty of alternatives to 09c that fit your description, so a matter of finding yours, I can help if needed, check your DMs :)

I think your equipment still is a problem, but not as much as you think :) Equipment is often 20-30% of the total package. It is still a lot in a sport where every point and detail matters. Specially because having a wrong feeling in your hand or playing with something that doesn't fit your...

It is fine not to use a hard sponge this season or later, that is a personal preference and a matter of style in the end, some players like a hard sponge with a softer blade like me, and some players the opposite. In general, because the FH can put more body and arc into the shot, a harder...

I don't think that ratio makes sense, it's all or nothing then. But as a principle, it's better to not just brush, the ratio depends on the incoming ball and your position, can be 50/50 or less/more depending on that. More hitting through means more dwell, thus more stability and speed/spin as...

I might be the only one then, but I do prefer a strict teacher that punishes when I do things wrong and rewards when done right. Plus that metallic crack sound, feeling, crazy spin, low throw angle and kick after the bounce of a well boosted H3 hitting through is still amazing :)

Yes this is what I would say too, sound is often thin instead of what you hear at the end of first practice video where crack was present. Could it be that mentally you are braking your own technique (like in the start of the practice video, thin brush sound) because you are (perhaps...

Thanks so much I will have a look into those! Have not tried any of them (only heard about avalox as a reference for other modern blades), so I'll do some research and add accordingly :)
