  1. Cybershape Carbon vs. Cybershape Wood?

    I know you are asking from player perspective, but maybe this article will be useful. https://ttgearlab.com/2023/04/04/stiga-cybershape-series-lab-test/ Apart from lab test, there are also playing impressions.
  2. Mizuno Q Quality a cheap and performant tensor that matches Tenergy 05 at half price

    Hmm interesting. Shipping ~10€ Base price 28,55€ Vat 23% import tax 3% --------------- 36€ + shipping Still acceptable price. Provided the tax office won't force you to go through import company which is 25€ service... Might just be good enough I organize some sort of group buy.
  3. Mizuno Q Quality a cheap and performant tensor that matches Tenergy 05 at half price

    Are you by chance from EU? I remember there are additional taxes on imports from Japan. One of my friends has a club mate from Japan, maybe he will carry this for me since he often flies.
  4. A cheap way to improve on a daily basis.

    I bought similar tool to what is used in this video. I don't want to share link, because I don't want this post to be treated as advertisement. I even made similar one from scrap, you can also go that way if you want. The tool on Ali costs 10-20$ so I think anyone can afford it. I've been doing...
  5. Are 5-ply wood blades more flexible than 7-ply (inner) carbon blades?

    I don't want to be mean, toxic or any other negative thing. But that is the greatest and most constructive advice you can get in world of table tennis. That being said. Instead of "go train" one should "go evaluate your own weaknesses, train to minimise them, repeat". Quality coaching has...

    It might be beneficial if you write, which of the two players are you.
  8. Are 5-ply wood blades more flexible than 7-ply (inner) carbon blades?

    From my experience stepping down to a light thin (sub 6mm) 7 ply blade is a very nice solution. There must be a reason why Victas/TSP swat is king of sales in Japan :p I switched to Tibhar Curious a long while ago. For now I am staying with it.
  9. Are 5-ply wood blades more flexible than 7-ply (inner) carbon blades?

  10. Are 5-ply wood blades more flexible than 7-ply (inner) carbon blades?

    Across my EJ journey If I learned anything, I learned that thickness and wood selection matter. I played with stiff thiccccccc 5 plies and thin flexible 7 plies. TBH. I would keep Innerforce. It's fine blade. If anything Baracuda does not scream control and all round. If you play in a club I...
  11. Why #19 is illegal?

    Why is no.3 illegal? Did he contact table with his belly?
  12. Tibhar EL-D...my new love!

    How does it compare to MXP?
  13. Upcoming Joola rubbers

    It is getting a bit annoying that every tt company suddenly is releasing 3-5 rubbers a year... Is this just a way to jack up prices? I played some of those new shiny rubbers and I do really struggle to see differences with older products sometimes. 3 years ago 50€ was expensive for me, most...
  14. Fastarc G-1 is great but...

    Consider Gewo ELPro 48. Thin top shit. Sponge hardness you want.
  15. Backhand rubber vega x ?

    Ma dude. Are you aware that you can just twiddle the racket you have and play YOUR own Vega X on YOUR own blade to experimentally check if Vega X is good for YOUR backhand?
  16. Looking for recommendations

  17. Looking for recommendations

    Do you train with coach?
  18. Going back to basics. Recommend me an ALL+,OFF-,OFF all wood blades

    To name a few: - Tibhar Curious - Sanwei Flextra - Donic Dyjas Ultrapower (did not like that one that much) - TSP SWAT (however that is called rn) - Tibhar Samsonov Force Pro (thicker of the thinnest, can be a tad stiff) I would aim for <= (less or) 6mm.
