  1. Who's your favorite tt retailer?

    TT11, ColesTT, Aliexpress, TT-Japan when ordering online. Paddlepalace when I want to hold a blade in my hands, it is just a 20-30min drive for me.
  2. Upgrade from Stiga OC to Stiga clipper? Rubber?

    I recommend getting a faster 5 ply wood like Infinity VPS or Intensity NCT if you're trying to get an upgraded OC, Clipper is 7 ply and behaves fairly differently than OC.
  3. Beginner equipment for my 8 year old daughter

    Key word here is made by. Yamato Takkyuu is just the parent brand to TSP/Victas as Champion sports is the parent Brand to Xiom, who has rubbers supplied by ESN. I'm not completely sure which manufacturer supplies the Japanese made rubbers for Victas like Spectol/Spinpips, most likely Daiki, but...
  4. Beginner equipment for my 8 year old daughter

    Victas is essentially the successor brand of TSP, both Victas and TSP were created to sell Yamato Takkyuu co products. For a short time both brands existed separately under the umbrella of Yamato Takkyuu, where Victas somewhat acted in a Lexus-Toyota relationship to TSP (Victas acting as the...
  5. Beginner equipment for my 8 year old daughter

    I'd recommend Nittaku Factive, you can get it in 1.4 or 1.8. I think it is a better rubber than Mark V and Sriver and you can get it at tt11 for ~$27
  6. Suggestion needed for Jr player

    Boll TJ looks like a miniaturized version of the old Butterfly Kumpuru, koto-t5000-ayous.
  7. Advice please: 7-ply all-wood blade for my son

    I admit I am also a member of the owns-too-many-SPW club, I have bought 4 of them so far but have only 3 at the moment. I sold one, it was a bit too heavy at 93g but it felt very nice with a dense and powerful feeling, harder and crisper than my other ones. I currently have an 87g one as a...
  8. Why Mima left using @Nittaku Hurricane hybrid rubber.

    Nexy is a South Korean brand, but their rubbers do seem to be manufactured by Daiki.

  11. Rakza 7 or Rakza 7 Soft for backhand?

    put it on your fh, try it on your bh. If it works there, it works, if its too hard then try the soft
  12. Videos of pros with short pips on backhand for playing tactics?

    Been wondering the same thing myself. Last time I checked his setup was Clipper Oversize WRB, H3 and Clippa but I've no clue what he's got now
  13. Looking for light rubbers (coming from Rakza 7)

    Perhaps you are trying to manipulate your wrist too much. Did you come from a lighter setup that didn't give you these issues?

    Gewo Zoom Pro, cheap but still quality copy of Primo off-.
  16. Winning matches at a lower level?

    The biggest thing you should be concerning yourself with in terms of equipment, is not concerning yourself that deep with equipment. Nitpicking and worrying about such minutiae takes precious brain power away from figuring out how to score points. Not to say there won't be pieces of kit you'll...

  18. Looking for rubbers with medium hardness and good control

    Evolution rubbers belong to a much newer generation of ESN rubber, Aurus is more in line with rubbers like Vega Pro, Hexer, Baracuda.
  19. Looking for rubbers with medium hardness and good control

    I can only speak on Baracuda, VX was one of my previous bh rubbers so I can compare them a bit. Baracuda has a bit better spin and grip, safer arc when attacking, but less 'automatic'/springy and more spin-sensitive than VX. Baracuda is also a tic heavier than VX so it may not be as much in your...
  20. Recommend a tacky Juic rubber?

    Nanospin isn't very tacky, and it's not very spinney either. I'd doubt a new sponge would make it all that and a slice of cake.
