  1. My Butterfly Dignics 09C Review: Why I think that most amateur players should avoid it

    I don’t think it’s entirely like that. I also consider myself an amateur player, and I switched from tensor rubbers (T05, T80, T19, D05, etc.) to Dignics 09C on both sides. I feel that my attacking power has decreased a little, but my consistency has improved, and my backhand flick has become...
  2. W968 vs Golden Viscaria

    Exactly — there is no blade that gives a better backhand than the Viscaria. I own both a Q968 and a Viscaria, and I’m a backhand-oriented player. Whenever I face a tough opponent and need my backhand to win the match, I have to use the Viscaria.
  3. Backhand modern weight transfer technique: loading on dominant leg. What do you think or prefer?

    Play me once and you’ll understand my deadly backhand loop haha
  4. Rubbers for Innerforce ALC

    It depends on whether you can generate power effectively or not. I have a similar playing style to yours, staying about 2–3 meters away from the table. I call it a mid-distance playing style. My attacking power is only above average within my club, but I still feel very comfortable playing at...
  5. Rubbers for Innerforce ALC

    I’m also using an inner-layer blade structure. Currently, I use Dignics 09C on both sides, so you can use that as a reference.
  6. Slower FH rubber

    “Just a warning for the author: when you remove the Vega X from your racket, you need to glue it onto another immediately; otherwise, it will shrink after just a few days.”
  7. Q968 compared to Fan Zhendong ALC and Innerforce ZLC

    In my country, we don't buy table tennis equipment via commercial online platforms. We often buy them in the local store (of some favorite players), and We can know the actual weight after removing the plastic film, the wood quality of the blade, ... We also prefer blades that are manufactured...
  8. Slower FH rubber

    In my opinion (also some players in my club & my coach in the national team), vegaX is slower than Ten05(I think 80% of Ten05), and its sensitivity to spin is also much lower compared to Ten05. I remember some infor has already published by racketinsight or somewhere. I think our perspectives on...
  9. Q968 compared to Fan Zhendong ALC and Innerforce ZLC

    Yes, agree, Europeans are always stronger than Asian kaka
  10. Slower FH rubber

    With me, it's very slow, same as with Rakza7, and everyone always recommends Rakza7 for beginners, so I think there’s nothing wrong with that at all.
  11. Q968 compared to Fan Zhendong ALC and Innerforce ZLC

    I personally feel H3 is easier to use on the Viscaria. When I play with tacky H3 rubber, I need more power, and the Viscaria gives me more force because it produces more rebound compared to the Fan ALC. I — and many others in another thread — agree that the Fan ALC is the softest blade in the...
  12. Q968 compared to Fan Zhendong ALC and Innerforce ZLC

    Luckily for you, I’m currently playing with both the Fan ALC and the Q968, both paired with Dignics 09C. Regarding the handle feel, the Q968 is very slim and easy to grip for someone with small hands like me. The handle of the Fan ALC is relatively large and often makes it uncomfortable for me...
  13. Slower FH rubber

    Vega X is already extremely slow and very easy to play. If you still can’t adapt to it, I think you should switch to a tacky rubber — something like Kokutaku 868, for example.
  14. Butterfly vs Mizuno shoes

    Butterfly only outsources their shoes manufacturing to other brands based on their own designs and then puts their logo on them. Their shoes can’t be as good as Mizuno’s. I remember that most professional players used Mizuno — even the Chinese national team. They only switched to Li-Ning when...
  15. Need some advice on a new blade

    250 euros for that condition is quite a bargain. At that price in my country, you would have to pay for a much older racket.
  16. What makes more difference - rubbers or blades

    I may not have the expertise to fully verify what you’re saying, but I want to share that my coach, who is favorite in my country, is sponsored by Xiom for his blades (he previously used Butterfly). When he play in high-level tournaments, he mentioned that he felt his performance dropped by a...
  17. What makes more difference - rubbers or blades

    My coach used to be a player on the national team. He said that to build up your skill level, you need to gather a bit of everything — little by little, to become a pro. He said that the blade and the rubber are equally important. If I play in the style of Chinese players who use rubbers like...
  18. Flared(FL) or Straight(ST)?

    I’m a player who uses the backhand a lot, and the flared (FL) handle helps improve my shot consistency. I’m using Viscaria
  19. Can i make it better? (Forehand)

    yes, but all most is his arm, In a real match, the ball comes very fast and he won’t have time for a long swing — he has to use his waist to generate explosive power. I think Timo Boll does this very well - just play like him haha
