I didn't say it was a bad cue all of the time. I just said it was a bad cue for me to use on the FH stroke. And are you sure that shifting the weight is easier to do on the toes? Because I don't see this when I see the FH technique of pros. Look at Ma Long here for example: He's flat footed...

The tip from this video has solved a big issue I didn't know I had with balance and weight transfer during the FH. I just found it a couple of weeks ago so I'm still in the process of fixing the issue, but I already feel a lot more powerful and balanced. This thing is 30 mins long when it...

88g. Arc is lower and longer than the Sanwei Inner 75. Seems to find the end of the table whether it's hit medium or hard power. One thing might be an issue is that the handle is very chunky. Thickest handle I've ever used. I like it but if you have smaller hands it might not be ideal.

Lol I just meant Loki Rxton 3 Blue (topsheet). Loki is already confusing enough I don't want to add more confusion on my own!

Finally got a chance to play with the Resonate AI for a few hours and I'm very impressed. This thing is clearly my fastest blade, but I'm also getting more balls on the table at the same time. I was able to hit a lot more impressive shots, some that actually surprised me with the quality. It...

They generally are but theres something unique about the Rxton 3 Blue sponge that instantly releases energy like a steel trap. I haven't encountered anything like it. Whatever it is, the effect is much stronger than the holding force of the slight amount of tack. Low and medium power shots are...

Moon 12 to me is a bit more bouncy and the sponge has a more airy feeling. The Rxton 3 Blue has a harder sponge, feels more dense, and is slightly tacky. For how I play the Rxton is more comfortable to play with while having much better top end speed and flat hitting.

Maybe take look at the video I posted a while back with the Blue. If the Pink makes that loud cracking sound and has that sort of speed boost, then maybe the boosted Pink is the same. They seem to feel different to me tho. Whatever gasoline smelling thing they used to soften the sponge compared...

Yeah I wouldnt do it. I imagine it'll bubble and separate quickly. From now on I'm going to be buying the Blue and then boosting it to soften the sponge a bit. Another thing I noticed is that with the Blue I can produce this cracking powerful BH shot by making my contact a bit flatter. This...

Just wanted to pop in to report that the latest batch of Rxton 3 Blue and Pink bought a couple months ago have had zero problems with bubbling and sponge separation. Boosted Rxton 3 Blue with just 1 layer of Seamoon. It curled up and stayed curled for about a day and a half so the reaction is...

I'm inclined to believe the reviewer that it was harder than 47.5d. But it's probably more likely that Loki was aiming for a softish sponge of 47.5 ESN and missed, rather than using the Japanese scale and trying to market a 57.5d ESN sponge as a medium hard backhand rubber.

Loki Telson 100 comes in mid-soft sponge that is advertised as 45 degree Shore O.

Yes sorry second. Calling @zeio, do you know the status of the race between Hayata/Hari vs LJH/SYB?

Is this the event where her and Harimoto need to win XD to jump to 3rd for Olympic seeding?

Was really interesting to see how Harimoto handled that game when he realized he couldn't just exchange power shots with Uda. Switched between his standard backhand play that he used all of last year and further from the table FH loops that he was using a lot this tournament. Guess it was to try...

I know you're trying to lighten the mood and mean no harm. But there are a few 'new members' here that seem very upset about this case, so we might want to upgrade the sensitivity level in this thread a bit. We're already at a point where I feel some moderator intervention might be helpful.

That's fine, and if this was what was initially posted then nobody would have a problem with that. But the three of you coming to this thread to tell us that we need to believe he is guilty of the sexual offenses merely because he's accepting a plea deal is where the problem started. Everyone...

Right, whoever here who has it out for Dubina has every right to post their experiences and information to warn the rest of the community. But it's not very helpful for them to present a misleading intepretation of the legal proceedings to fit their narrative. We are all capable of making our...

Please stop saying he pleaded to a "higher charge." Nobody plea bargains for a higher charge. It's making you look like you're purposefully misrepresenting the situation. From a neutral party point of view: Dubina requested a trial. The DA didn't have enough evidence or weren't confident to...

Yeah maybe you should be a part of the forum to see what it's like instead of just joining to post your suppositions about this trial. In your post you said that he was "clearly guilty fo the original charges." If he was why did the DA allow him to plead to a different charge? You seemed...
