No, i did not boost it. I did not even here about there being a Rexton VII. I think the european site only shows 3 and 5

i have seen 1, 2 and 4 definitely. For 1 i think they are simply not table tennis players, they are hobby players at best. For them the game is simply a intuitive reaction game. They have ingrained exactly one response to an incoming ball and they can not place the ball at will, but rather have...

after the first session with real opponents, i feel that the rubber has a too high throw (when played on a Nittaku Acoustic) or too much speed when activated. I mean a hardness of 40° is quite hard compared the the Rakza Z that i am used to. if i was only looping from the half distance the LAC...

A carbon outer blade as a beginner is not what many would recommend indeed. If you can afford it a Nittaku Acoustic is a great choice which can surely be played with three times your current ratings. Dignics is not a beginner rubber and will hinder your progress

I just received two (red/orange sticky) Loki Arthur China *2.1mm & H40. Out of the box the black one on a W968 was feeling "more dead" than the red one on the Nittaku Acoustic, but both are really having these chinese dampening features for the short game. What was surprising is that to me it...

that looks quite good for a basement player. I especially like your backhand. The forehand looks odd because you seem to fold your wrist inwards in between hitting zone. You can use the wrist to increase spin, but you would move it differently. like this it looks like you slap the ball instead...

i read up on the Loki Arthur China. Orange package is with extra sticky topsheet, while the green package is with "regular" topsheet.

I only had a glance at the shorter video and would like to reference the question of your other thread. Don't be discouraged but without a very good coach you should forget about using a dignics 09c. Let me reiterate (regardless of how many forum members here are playing equipment that is way to...

i think you are having a wrong impression about Rakza Z. Rakza Z is similarly controlled in the slow and passive game. By having a softer topsheet it will still be quite spinny, even on slow shots, so that is not something that you will miss. The main difference is on active shots (with about...

But still the experience you gain under pressure and the exposure against different play styles will be much more helpful in getting better than having training partners that just fool around. You concentrate better in matches and so i really think that you got much out of that season...

I dont get what you are comparing right now. So for instance with dignics 09c vs Rakza Z with the same stroke the ball will probably land closer to the net on the other side of the table when you loop, simply because Rakza Z is slower in the end tempo. That is a totally valid point. Using...

without a second blade you will not be able to pick up the real differences between the rubbers anyways. I feel that you do appoint much of your winning and progress to the switch of rubbers, while you forget that you compare with results that are 2 years ago and especially the last year in the...

Yes, still got the Dignics 09c on a TMXi (which is also an inner carbon blade) and as you said, i could play with it because in training it might be fun. A softer sponge and a softer topsheet will make the ball eject slower from your blade, so that you dont need to have pinpoint accuracy to hit...

Rakza Z is way easier to play than dignics 09c, while you will not miss out on much if you are not a semi-pro. In short Rakza Z is softer (50°) and more sticky which will make it easier to play shots slightly out of position (compared to dig 09c). Rakza Z has an easier short game than Dignics...

That's the benefit of edge tape. If you dip your racket into a bucket of water in-between sets, the blade does not soak that much water. Pro tip

i had a similar situation but kind of reversed. I played against a pips grandpa (who obviously does only faulty serves). That guy actually has pips out on both sides and the rubber is at least 20 years old and has already receded from the place where his thumb is. I remember i found it so odd to...

it really sounded like your coach just wanted to earn something by selling stuff to you. I agree with ThePongCommenter that your additional info about your rating and the coach create more questions than it does answer. With the rating you claim to be you should of course be able to handle both...

In terms of outer koto and non carbon fibre, the xiom zl pro comes to mind, but here the fibre is as an inner construction while the hal is an outer fibre blade. I know xiom is not Chinese, but at least it is half the price of the hal often enough

If we only compare your national w968 and provincial S/Q and believe that the higher versions take more effort and skill to activate power, perhaps the easier to access power of the provincial blade does indeed fit you better, especially if you play chinese rubbers.

The big difference is the amount of pressure/force that is needed for the ball to stick to the top sheet. The stickiness will grab the ball on the slightest and lightest touches without the need to penetrate the sponge while the regular non sticky top sheets probably need the ball to have...
