    Congratulations to the guys from Singapore on such a confident victory !!! :love:
  4. Expensive table tennis blades.. why not?

    I don't know about you guys, but I have several rackets that I play with in different halls on different tables. The thing is that in a small hall the ball flies very fast and the main game takes place in zones 1-2, and a slower and control blade is enough for me. In a large hall the ball flies...
  5. When is Nittaku Fastarc G-1 50 degree coming to any market other than the Japanese and South Korean

    Or maybe it's all much simpler? The ball has changed over time and harder rubbers play better with this ball. Demand creates supply. Personally, I would buy a G1 with a hardness of 50.
  6. How to measure blade frequency?

    Blade frequency should be measured only without rubber. Rubber dampens the sound very much and you will not get a reliable result.
  7. How to measure blade frequency?

    These are Viscarias of different years of production. The ball changed, tennis changed, the requirements for blades changed and Butterfly released a new version of Viscaria, which was thicker than the previous one, which leads to such differences in the measured frequencies...
  8. How to measure blade frequency?

    A very interesting feature. When we make a blade and check the frequency by simply tying the handles with a rope, the measured frequency is lower than after a groove is made in the handle. The frequency is also lower for an untreated blade. The blade frequency is affected by the blade size in...
  9. Ball catcher net - your experience?

    Hi! I made this stand for myself very simply, quickly and for free. Three light thin-walled tubes like these https://www.amazon.co.uk/Chrome-Plated-Metal-Round-Tube/dp/B077NGTSD9 are assembled like a football goal, I used scraps of furniture chipboard as supports. You can screw wheels to them...
  10. Yinhe Jupiter 3 Amazing Rubber

    As for Jupiter, I noticed that the red Jupiter has a much more wear-resistant topsheet than the black. To confirm my words, here is a photo of two Jupiters 3 39, which I play on the forehand. I bought the black Jupiter later and played it about the same as the red one. The difference in play is...
  11. Curious case of Joola ZGR's to ZGX's

    I have great respect for the Joola company, but these horrible rubber names with three consonants at the end just break my brain. Why can't they continue the old tradition of dancing rubber names?
  12. Stiga Dragon Power 52.5, 55, 57.5 rubber?

    Hi! What thickness of Yasaka rubber did you buy? I wonder what weight and how it plays.
  13. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    It would be useful if the manufacturer immediately wrote about the differences between the versions, so as not to dig through the forums.
  14. Experience with defensive blades

    I have been playing with homemade blades for a long time now, and I sold all the factory blades because I didn't need them anymore. So much time and events have passed that it's hard for me to remember, to be honest. Every day here we have a rocket flying in, a drone exploding, or power outages...
  15. China Smash 2024, Beijing, 9/26-10/6

    Hugo is simply afraid of Ma Long, he loses the match long before the match itself
  16. China Smash 2024, Beijing, 9/26-10/6

    I always liked Zhang Jike and Fan Zendong, but I never liked Ma Long. As we say - there is no accounting for taste.
  17. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Moon Speed's topsheet is terrible, unlike the topsheet of regular Moon. Maybe it depends on the color, but my red regular Moon lasted a very long time, and the black Moon Speed immediately began to crumble at the edges and a stain with wear appeared very quickly, while the sponge is really...
  18. My practice with Fan Zhendong: Shoutout to Dan Ives for capturing this

    After reading your post I had so many emotions and I wanted to write to you a lot, but when I returned to my reality I was left with only one thought - how lucky you Australians are with your neighbors...
