i got a confirmation from the german web page chat support that the rubber is discontinued (original wording "PK50 ist ein Auslauf Belag") and that they only sell whats left in their stock. update: Sergej from Tabletennis11 wrote that it is discontinued as well... i have a pending request with...

that does really look odd. basically it looks as if you would put a rubber with the wrong glue onto the blade and then pull the rubber off taking off with it slices of the wood fibre. funny that these things can happen by simply applying sealing (which you could have done by yourself as well)...

I can see a mention of "PK50" inside a pdf aside with just japanese letters, so i dont know what that would actually mean. Might as well mean that they see no point in importing the PK50 to japan anymore, because there is no demand for it (remember it is manufactured in germany). The notion...

Rakza Z is way more easy to activate and faster than PK50 imo.

PK50 is not slow, but it only has medium speed in my opinion. To get speed out of it you need to use quite a lot more body power than your typical ESN rubber, obviously. If we take away the Nittaku hurricane lineup, than this is the most chinese feeling Nittaku rubber that i tested, but still it...

I have a funny feeling reading you posting about the Nittaku PK50 Sieger allegedly being discontinued. Facts are that it was only released in 2020 and that there is no successor to it in Nittakus rubber offering. Can you or anybody else give a real official statement of Nittaku claiming that...

The fine thing with this tactic is, that you get a slight positional advantage because at a low level nobody will be able to place the ball to your wide forehand from that position, so you now you only need to worry about the middle of the table (not even really backhand) and everything that you...

in terms of tactics for beginners i found one that does work for me quite nicely. i am a right handed player and i do this regardless of if i play against a rightie or a leftie. Lets assume i am playing a right handed player as well. I serve from my backhand corner to the wide short backhand of...

i was finally able to measure Rxton 7 vs LAC vs Rakza Z (on W968 and Nittaku Acoustic) with my spinsight setup ( with 30 strokes per test). Most results were in line with what one would expect: Looping "empty"/slight topspin balls yielded these average values: W968 Rxton7 (37°) : 87 rps...

I do n play PK50 on the backend, so I don't need a soft rubber on the backend. If it was only about training, I would not care about the two same colors, but if I decide to exercise with it, I will keep it at least a week and this would include playing a competitive with it. Chances are nobody...

i do totally get that, but on my spare blade i only had the red/coloured side that i could replace with a rubber to test and i had only the 37° one in red. The other hardnesses i ordered (39°&40°) were in black, so i could either build a racket with two black rubbers or use the red one to test...

after 4 sessions i think i "broke in" the Rxton 7 (37°) sponge and now it is unfortunately too soft for my usual forehand play. If i dont pay very good attention i will hit through the sponge easily and feel the ball hitting through the sponge and onto the blade. The spin is still there and if i...

Thanks again for the recommendation. I have put a Rxton 7 (37°) on a spare W968. I only ordered one red one in 37° and the rest 39° & 40° in black and it happened that i only wanted to replace the coloured one on that spare W968. Initially i thought i'd try the 39° first and then move up or...

i had the opportunity to test my esn spinsight systems on serves and made a few observations that were unexpected. Note that this is of course very personal and limited by my technique. when doing backspin serves it was not the very slow ones that had the most spin. So the shot backspin serves...

Today before training I removed the plastic protection and tested if I could lift a ball with it. I could. after 90 minutes of training and me not using my cleaner I could sense and feel a greasy film on it. As if it was dust and jelly in a very thin layer. Breathing on it and then wiping it...

today i noticed that my LAC did lose it's tack pretty much. It is still grippy, but the tackiness seems to be gone after about 8 hours i would assume. I use cleaner between matches and have a protector on the rubber when i dont play it. I have ordered a few ESN spinsight balls and got the...

i think i know the ball that you are talking about. When i play doubles and the LP player receives (while my partner serves long) the LP player uses this awkward non-ergonomical move side/upwards (basically building a wall/barrier with his bat) and the ball shoots in a straight line accross the...

i also have frequent ball jams on that conveyor mechanism. I do have more than 130 balls in there for sure. If i just stir the balls with my hand, then it will work again, but it seems like there is a specific combination of balls in that round countainer in which the rotating fins are located...

Another session with the LAC on the Nittaku Acoustic, which was so so. On the forehand I struggle to find the right angle to not overshoot or clear the net. After 80% of my session I took out the W968 where I got the LAC on the forehand and gave it a few shots. I did expect to simply have the...

Thank you, i just ordered the 37°, the 39° and the 40° version and i will try the 39° version first.
