  1. Getting smoke smell out of a bat

    I've read that at least for getting the tobacco smoke smell out of cars, theres no better method than ozone treatment
  2. New BH rubber

    This is unfortunately kind of typical for short pips, they simply have less surface area that contacts the ball so you always have to kind of 'hit' to get the rubber to grab. 102 is perhaps the most grippy short pip I've used so you might not face the same issues as with Blowfish, but at the end...
  3. New BH rubber

    If you want to try another short pip I think VO>102 is a quintessential rubber to try. Fast and dynamic with good spin. Moristo SP if you're looking for something a bit less spinny and more straightforward
  4. New blade to be released by Stiga this month

    One of my clubmates got one, had a quick knock with it and my initial impressions are that its basically just a slower Dynasty. I might have to buy one myself to compare to Aura and Wavy and to fill out my Cybershape collection but the cost isn't very attractive tbh
  5. STIGA New cybershape: CYBERSHAPE WAVY

    I kind of feel the same way, when playing with the Wavy I often feel as though my shots don't really grab/spit out the ball. The blade just doesn't really eat the ball well even with Hurricane. The speed I mainly felt through the blade resisting flexing under impact rather than the blade flexing...
  6. STIGA New cybershape: CYBERSHAPE WAVY

    Did you put 09C on? Wavy is pretty thick and stiff and I found it better with D80. Felt a bit clunky to me with 09C
  7. What is most bouncy Chinese rubber in your experience.

    Chinese made or Chinese brand? Chinese made definitely something like Ak47 Red or Gambler Outlaw Chinese brand, tensors like DHS Goldarc 8 or Palio Blitz
  8. Upgrade suggestion on Blade for Pen Hold play

    Maybe try a thinner 7 ply wood. Stiga Pure, Tibhar Szocs, are both nice 7 ply wood blades that are thinner than Clipper (6.8mm) but thicker than slower 7 ply woods like Swat and PG7
  9. Did Paddle Palace Buyout Megapsin?

    I have no idea, I haven't bought from Megaspin in about a decade, (basically since I discovered TT11) but they have been in business for a long time, so they must be doing something right
  10. Did Paddle Palace Buyout Megapsin?

    Yup, Megaspin is fed by several sources including Tabletennisstore.us, Bowmar Sports (ButterflyOnline), JoolaUSA, and Gotabletennis
  11. Introduce yourself to the forum! :)

    Fair, one of my clubmates has the Stiga Destiny Cybershape which looks just like the Dynasty, I don't think it has officially been released by Stiga at least in Western markets
  12. TT shoes suggestions!

    I am using Sanwei Flashfire (Speed Art rebranded shoes) but I also quite like the newer Donic Spaceflex
  13. Can Hurricane become faster without boosting!?!

    Yup when the rubber degrades it loses tackiness and also becomes softer, both of which makes the rubber faster and bouncier.
  14. New Stiga Mantra Pro

    All the Pro H I have used are colored, I've tried Pro M in red and Pro XH in black, but I didn't feel any differences in topsheet feeling between the different colors. Pro H remains my favorite though
  15. Butterfly Zyre 03

    Higher inspire Zyre
  16. Help with beginner setup

    Aurus series has a softer topsheet, slightly better feeling but they are a tad less aggressive than the Fastarc G/C topsheet. I feel they are also a bit lighter than Fastarcs as well
  17. Torn topsheet

    Unless you hit directly on the tear, I don't think you'd feel it
  18. Quarterfinal Loss 2-3 in First U1100 Sanctioned Tournament – Please Share Pointers

    More spin and spin more often with the fh, not every fh has to be a strong hit. Slow and spinny provides a nice contrast to cannon fh style shots
  19. Any news and info on Zhang Jike's New donic bluegrip j line?

    I share this sentiment. I was surprised at how dead it felt when not giving it the beans, in this aspect it performs amazing in passive control but requires a lot of energy to activate. The performance, especially the spin capacity and arc flight when you do hit through the sponge is still very...
