  1. A Chinese rubber: first blood :)

    Yep. Me too. Great smell :)
  2. Please suggest a backhand rubber with less catapult effect than Rakza 7 soft

    I've been searching for a good backhand rubber as well. Like "TryHard" I really like 729 Focus III Snipe. It comes in 42, 44 and 46 sponge hardness. The H42 is really soft. These rubbers are not tacky at all and not that spin sensitive. The durability isn't that great. You'll need to change them...
  3. Best Non Chinese Rubber for brush looping?

    A softer, non tacky rubber that works is the 729 Focus III Snipe. Try it in the 44 or 46 hardness. Ok It's Chinese, but works good and the sponge is soft. Sponge hardness is 42/44/46. H44 works on both forehand and backhand (for me). It's very light as well, and has good control.
  4. Best Non Chinese Rubber for brush looping?

    I agree here. Even though Chinese. Big Dipper feels like a DHS Skyline NEO TG2, but it's a bit more control with the same amount of spin and tackiness. I never played a Euro/Jap rubber where I feel that the brushing works any good at all...
  5. Chinese rubbers

    Chinese rubbers (hard, tacky ones) like DHS Hurricane 3 NEO, is perfect for brush looping. The harder sponge, the more aggressive style you should play (according to me). These rubbers are very linear. What you give is what you get. To play optimal you'll have to really work hard, bend your...
  6. Why do you play table tennis?

    They are renovating my club now and will do so for some weeks on. I caught myself glancing at the dinner table the other day. It's like an addiction (in a good way). I've only played for four years now as grown up, but everytime the training session ends, I'm just waiting for the next session :)...
  7. Best Aliexpress value products - Thread

    Sure. I could agree for OFF-, but it's a tiny bit faster than my Stiga Allround Wood. I have also used 729 L-3. This is a bit faster than the V-6. The 729 Z-1 is even faster than the L-3. It looks like you can't find the V-6 everywhere any more. Perhaps it has been taken out of production. Any...

    This 729 V-6 blade is really nice. Not that fast that it's marked for (OFF+). It's more like (All+). https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32650596266.html?spm=2114.12010612.8148356.41.15d65819TXNG2f

    Perhaps it has to do with the release of Stiga DNA?
  10. Advice on Friendship 729 Focus 3 Snipe and Yinhe MC-2

    Yes. I found them at aliexpress.com. I prefer the AliBattleship store. It has worked fine for me.
  11. Advice on Friendship 729 Focus 3 Snipe and Yinhe MC-2

    Well. I like big dipper. Its easier to lift the ball when looping and gives you better control. If you are more aggressive and hits the ball earlier, perhaps a h3n with Hard sponge H41 would be great for you
  12. Advice on Friendship 729 Focus 3 Snipe and Yinhe MC-2

    I have tried both DHS Hurricane 3 & 2 NEO, DHS Skyline TG2 NEO and some Yinhe rubbers (Big Dipper, Apollo V and Saturn Pro). F3S is a much more controllable rubber and the spin is not that great. Yinhe Big Dipper is quite like the DHS Hurricane/Skyline NEO series, but with a little more control...
  13. Advice on Friendship 729 Focus 3 Snipe and Yinhe MC-2

    I think the softest focus 3 Snipe with the 42 sponge is too slow for forehand, but the 44 and 46 sponge works fine for forehand. My opinion of course :)
  14. Skyline TG2 NEO vs Hurricane 3 NEO

    I have used both Hurricane 3 NEO and Skyline TG2 NEO, mostly the softest (H39) sponge. H3N tends to go long for me often. TG2 is a little bit slower and better control I think. I actually tried Yinhe Big Dipper and have stuck to this since last autumn. It gives me a little more control than TG2...

    Have you tried the Yinhe Saturn Pro?

    If you want to buy table tennis stuff from Aliexpress, I can recommend Ali Battleship and Chinese Ping Pong. I haven't had any problems with stuff from them yet. I have ordered this way for about three years now...
  18. 729 Battle II Rubber Review

    Hi. Was it DHS Skyline rubbers that bubbled? In that case, the same happened to me.
  19. Skyline v. Hurricane

    I don't have all technical differences between these rubbers, but I have used them all in NEO version except the TG3. The H3N is superb for brush looping (like all the others). Very good speed and quite high arc. The H2N is about the same in speed as the H3N, but the arc is a little bit lower...
