    I didn't expect such a great variance either....

  3. Yasaka Rakza 7 vs Nittaku Fastarc G-1

    I am currently playing with Fastarc G-1 while it's been a few years since I've played with Rakza. Given that, my overall impression is -G-1 is spinnier if you rotate your body for top spins while Rakza is better for shorter strokes. -Speed is about the same, maybe G-1 just a slight faster -Rakza...
  4. Is Harimoto's screams disrespectful to the opponent?

    In a recent interview, when Harimoto was asked about his screaming, he replied : "Every time the referee doesn't notice, I do the same. And when the referee noticed, my sound will be a little smaller" The translation is not very ggod or accurate, but what is clear is that many referees DO give...
  5. Xiom Vega iSwitch Rubbers

    I agree i-Switch is more convenient than using glue sheets, but I'm just giving an alternative for players who use other rubbers than Xiom and want to make something similar like i-Switch. While glue sheets do have the reputation for being used only in OX-rubbers, I've been using them for years...
  6. Xiom Vega iSwitch Rubbers

    Theoretically however, you can turn any rubber similar to Xiom's iSwitch: You just use glue sheets gluing the "strong" side of the sheet to the rubber and the weaker one to the blade to avoid splintering.Then you can easily unglue the whole rubber and reglue it to another blade. I'm saying that...
  7. Xiom Vega iSwitch Rubbers

    Have you measured the weight difference between normal and iSwitch rubbers?
  8. Xiom Vega iSwitch Rubbers

    Great innovation, this could be a real game changer if other companies adopt a similar technology. There are a lot of players who hate gluing process or don't know how to glue at all. I have abandoned regular glue for a long time now and been using glue sheets. Looking forward to test iSwitch!
  9. TenniRobo vs Joola Infinity

    I've bought Infinity since last summer and I'm waiting this June -hopefully- to get it, after 3-4 missed deadlines by Joola. When someone of the buyers asked this exact question, the official answer was that they could fund it themselves, but they chose the crowdfunding method to gather ideas...
  10. Problems with Dandoy-Sports

    I had the same problem about 2 weeks ago. However now I logged just fine.
  11. Xiom Omega 7 Hyper and Vega X

    According to Xiom's catalogue at least,both VP and VX have a sponge hardness of 47.5o while they differ in the topsheet technology where the VP uses Hyper Elasto technology and VX Elasto Futura, which is actually the technology of Omega VII topsheets
  12. Xiom Omega 7 Hyper and Vega X

    Indeed a more dense pimple structure would explain the added weight.
  13. Xiom Omega 7 Hyper and Vega X

    After 4-5 months using Vega X on both sides, I've switched back to Vega Pro. My overall impression of Vega X: - Just a slight faster and spinnier than Vega Pro. - Higher arc - Significantly more spin sensitive - Way heavier than Vega Pro (which is strange given that they have the same sponge...
  14. Robot purchase for home use

    One idea would be to buy Joola Infinity and sell HP-07.
  15. Robot purchase for home use

    Check out Joola Infinity. It's a real bargain at 450€ and it's price will double after this offer https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/joola-infinity-app-controlled-table-tennis-robot#/ It's one of the most advanced robots currently at the market. I've bought one myself.
  16. Is Harimoto's screams disrespectful to the opponent?

    You're missing the point: It doesn't really matter if the opponents are actually intimidated/irritated or not. In fact it's not only about players only. It's about fans as well and the sport in general. It's really annoying and disrespectful watching a player screaming and bending every...
  17. Is Harimoto's screams disrespectful to the opponent?

    Recently I had a debate with a co-player from my club concerning the "screams" of Harimoto. He claims that Harimoto shouts to hype himself, while I believe he shouts to intimidate and irritate the opponent in an unsportsmanlike fashion. The question in short is: "Do you believe that the...

  19. Dandoy's Customer Care

    I appreciate the fact that you've accepted the return and you've sent me the exchange goods without charging any postage fees. However, as you understand that does not compensate for the fact that you weren't replying to any of my mails for more than 2 weeks... Covid-19 could maybe justify a...
