2000 French. It is the top 0,5% of the players, the top 1000 of France. I think we can assume it is very good. National league in France is as follows : Pro A and Pro B, with professional teams/players, with a lot of foreign players (Freitas, Pitchford, Lind,...), and some of the best french...

In France, 2000+ players all contest in the national leagues, Pro A and Pro B being the place for 2500+ players. Be aware that what you see on Youtube is slower compared to what you would see 1m away from the table.

The ELO system is made so that you have your very first ranking after at least 5 games. Your first ranking represent your global performance against your first 5 (or more if you played more than 5 games in your 1st month of competition). And 30 to 40 games after that, your K-factor changes to...

Sanwei HC-1s. First time I'm not satisfied with the quality :

What will be the usage of such a rubber ? It looks like a 37° Jupiter 3. And I tried Jupiter 3 on BH and I found not suited to my BH. Will it be a Arthur China with soft sponge? If so, it could be very interesting.

That does not necessary mean there 100% chance to win according to the model.

I'm afraid I did not understood what you meant. A 237 pts difference implies a 100% probability of winning for the higher ranked player ?

Let's take chess Elo as a comparison. Difference between 2700 players and 2500 players is huge. And the 200 points difference is totally consistant with what the model wants to show as the probable result between 2 players. A player with 200 less points has only 30% chance of winning. I think...

I don't like that the equipment is considered as magical and make people improve just by their presence. It's playing the game of the big brands marketing and illegitimate prices. Most part of improvement comes from training, I'm amazed that some people pretend otherwise.

I'd say it depends on your level. I don't boost my FH rubbers and still my FH can hurt until the n°1000 french (but not higher, and not with consistancy).

I tried both Pro 05 and Fang Bo B2 yesterday evening : Yinhe 05 : 90.2gr, 1336Hz. FH Arthur China, BH Volant Phoenix 2 37°. Full blade is 187gr. Fang Bo B2 : 92.2gr, 1301Hz. FH Big Dipper 38°, BH Moon 12 M-. Full Blade is 192gr. I first tried the Fang Bo. The handle is the thinnest of all my...

Tested both Bo2 and Yinhe 05. Bo2/Big Dipper 38/Moon 12 M- : Too slow. I need faster rubbers. So next try will be with Arthur China Boosted on FH and Arthur China on BH. Yinhe 05/Arthur China/Voland Phoenix 2 37º : almost perfect setup. My FH was a beast. On the BH, it lacks the bouciness of...

I had him on a Stuor Harimoto ZLC and it was great on my FH. But, it's not tacky, so I lost the advantages of this (easy flicking, easier loops,...) compared to my Arthur China or my Big Dipper. But I want to try it on the BH, and that will happen tonight !

I can't find a 47,5º Goldarc 8. Is it worth insisting or, I yiu already have ESN rubbers (Gewo Nexxus for me), you can pass?

I don't doubt that. Bo2 has a 1301Hz frequency, surprised that it's so low.

Another balde to try :

I like them too, almost the best, but just below T8s and MC-4 handles.

Yinhe 05 handle, like the 01, is not as smooth as the T8s or the MC-4. Why? Why not making them of the same quality?

I got that after I posted my reply :geek:

No, Loki K5 & K6, all wood blades, respectively 5 and 7 plies. Edit : I think I missed some irony here ^^
