  1. What are your thoughts on Yasaka Atletico Power?

    It is the regular cheap version (around 80€) and weighs around 91g
  2. W968 National Question

    if that is the case and you got some free time, do yourself the favour and reglue it. No point in wondering what effect it might or might not have. When my trainer told me that she felt a spot on the blade where there was not enough glue i have reglued the rubber on the next day just to be sure...
  3. Feedback on my League games

    it will be interesting if you actually feel a difference with the new blade. i watched one and a half match of yours and i wondered why the opponents were quite confident either blocking or even countering back the forehand loops. Dignics 09c is known for great spin and i would have assumed...
  4. W968 National Question

    could it be that the shop deliberately let quite some milimeters of the rubber protrude over the blade to have some cushion on table hits or to have the rubber be bigger in case you want to reglue it after boosting ?
  5. What rubber to get next?

    post a gameplay video and tell us where a faster rubber would have won you a point that you did not win with your current setup. TLDR; you probably dont need a faster rubber.
  6. What are your thoughts on Yasaka Atletico Power?

    my atheltico power is quite different from the two provincial w968 i got. Here are a few pictures where you can see that the atheltico power (non pro version) is quite thicker.
  7. Why difficult to stop being an equipment junkie? Haha

    This was definite true for me. Of course if you change blades and setup every few month you will never get to the state so that you have real confidence in your setup and begin to play more intuitively and stable. Of course i could play with a w968 and tensor rubbers and i would score great...

    I had your games in my youtube feed and it really brightened up my day, when I saw your game against flavio. The way he serves with all the body movement looking like he wound faint and collapse to the ground made me crack out loud. Apart from this fun stuff these game really seamed to display...
  9. Pongbot Nova S Pro owners' review and discussion thread

    It must be a terribly worn table if a ball that is almost rolling back to the net suddenly hits a more worn position on the table and continues it's path towards the end of the table again. I would probably not even want to train on it with such an unpredictable effect of the table
  10. Alternative to rakza Z FH

    Rakza Z extrahard obviously... alternatively Loki Arthur China
  11. Feedback on my League games

    You are correct, in that example the higher classed opponent nearly never attacks and it seems like he conserves energy because he knows the opponent will make mistakes to grant him the win without much effort. Your opponent was more attacking, for sure, but if you count all the points awarded...
  12. Feedback on my League games

    just saw this video and thought this was a similar setup where a >1500 points player plays against a 1700 points player and they are even from south germany (so not that strong). perhaps you already follow andreas and find it interesting to see him struggle with similar things, even though i...
  13. Feedback on my League games

    Just a note on your estimate on how to translate RC points to German TTR. That opponent is nowhere 1900TTR level. I have seen 1600 TTR players looking way better than him. You need to take into account that he played someone(you) with >200 points less and he still did not look very dominating or...
  14. Feedback on my League games

    I don't want to jump onto the "hl5 with max dignics 09c is only for pro players"-bandwagon, but if i see this rallye i notice that you never ever did use a loop or shot that you put more than 80% power into. Of course you want to return the ball onto the table, but if your setup does not...
  15. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    orange is "super sticky" and green is less sticky (if at all)
  16. Feedback on my League games

    i have never seen a dignics 09c that felt similar to the G-1, tbh. I do trust you do notice the difference in rubber hardnesses and the like, so it might have been a fluke or was it perhaps a well worn d09c which was your first one ? If it was just about keeping the spin and slowing down i...
  17. Feedback on my League games

    so while the dignics 09c is also relatively hard if we compare it to ESN tensors, it is still a different beast to what Ma Long plays on the forehand. To put it bluntly, the boosted hurricanes are indeed better for the larger and longer swing that Ma long does, while dignics 09c is more...
  18. Feedback on my League games

    The Long 5 is already as close as you would come to Ma Longs Blade within a reasonable price. The W968 would not be that different that it would be justifying playing more than 300 € for a "cheap" w968. If you think about it in terms of an investment as your new primary blade, a w968 could make...
  19. Tibhar MK vs Dignics 09C?

    They are not comparable. 09c is a real hybrid while the hybrid mk is a regular tensor with a little hybrid flavour. Hybrid mk is closer to fastarc g-1.
