There we have it. it explains it all. Anders picked the best out of many. Maybe even had it modified. This is why it feels like a completely different blade. Well now I appreciate this blade even more lol. That video was great to watch actually. Reality check for all the Equipment Junkies...

I get that. my friends viscaria is slightly different than mine but not by much. this is is more of a huge difference. night and day.

also good testament to how healthy tt is:

command? not sure what you mean. Anyways my friend bought it from TT11 estonia. And we are in South America. logistically a nightmare as we even ship through the US to get things here. Also he already used the blade for a month or so now.

So I have a Donic Original True Carbon blade that I actually got directly from Anders Lind. My friend tried it and loved it so much he ordered the same for himself. We are both surprised to discover it plays COMPLETELY different. Its not even close. Even the sound is different. His is like...

So I have been shopping cheaper chinese equipment lately to just try out. Recent blade that arrived was the Sanwei Inner Carbon. I think it was 30$ or something on aliexpress. I am using Viscaria as my main blade so I am spoiled with good quality. That Sanwei blade is incredible. It took me...

Im around week 8 of my K3 and I have same issue. Its dying or already dead. I use special drops I forgot the name off to make it come back to life each time I use it but this isnt working too well either anymore. Its a bummer as I love the rubber. I ordered Dignics 09c as many say it will last...

yes very.

Try watch from 1 hour 21 min and 30 sec. in. Amazing motor neuron results on the “stamets stack” medicine. This will for sure improve the game in TT especially for elderly people. Comments are welcome. Ill be making the stack myself to try it out.

my rubbers should arrive next week. Quick question: Does 09c need "break in" time? Or it performs well right from first moment? I remember how huge a difference the hybrid K3 was after just 3-4 hours of play. My initial experience almost made me depressed haha.

If I get 8 months out of it even better.

totally makes sense.... we need to remember we are regular mortals :) Im not going for the olympics just yet. he he. ok 6 months. at 160$ for a pair of sheets. just under 30$ a month to play with top end rubbers. Its doable. I was considering the D05 as apparently longevity is even better...

Does your friend play 1900 level or above? Can he feel a difference between new and what he gets from you? I have heard of people say that after 8 months they still feel its close to playing as new. If this is possible with great care its not an expensive rubber suddenly anymore and it makes...

I try remember next time it happens to check both rubber and ball.

ok I see from the replies its diverse reasons. I fully agree on lack of technique can be the cause. I can easily feel when its me and not the equipment. However the wet ball I can relate too. humidity. Now that I think about it a less grippy rubber should be doing this very often, and its not...

I always rinse with water and then protective film. and in my bag/holder. then in my drawer until next time. So should be good on that one. Also I plan to put it on my best blade (viscaria) and keep it there until the end. With 8 hours play a week or so how long would you say it lasts in your...

So I noticed sometimes on rare occasions im doing a simple top spin return on a regular top spin ball like normal and the ball simply just hit down in the table right in front of me instead. Completely different from regular experience. Its like huh? wtf? Is this because the rubber didnt grip...

good news. I take good care of my rubbers. And I just ordered 4 sheets of 09c.

earlier in this thread you find people doing what i do but with a device putting slight pressure on the rubbers. its a link to some german website. maybe 1kg is enough? not sure. but some pressure is needed.

not convinced this is true. and..... playing the rubber felt fine.
