  1. Ultra-thin sponge?

    It don’t believe it’s made to be a chopping rubber, despite having some similar traits. In pushes, flicks and slow, spinny open ups against heavy backspin I believe these rubbers can rival just about everything in terms of spin generation.
  2. Sanwei or Yinhe: Which one is the better budget brand?

    Did you ask for a specific weight or was it just that consistent?
  3. Sanwei or Yinhe: Which one is the better budget brand?

    They both have very good budget blades :) I would say that for the entry-level blades, Yinhe has better finishing.
  4. What’s the better glue in your opinion?

    Rev. 3 for anything not boosted (curled). For boosted, Suke no. 2 and Zero Degree no. 2 Zero degree no. 2 is the better one of them, but more expensive.

  8. Best Chinese sticky rubbers that don't need boosting

    Is this the LAC Pro?
  9. Hurricane 3 + protective films

    I purposely try to avoid glue on the edges of the blade. If it bonds to the glue on the faces, you risk tearing off the glue on the outer perimeters of the faces when removing edge tape. Have happened to me too many times..

  12. My Top 10 best ALL+/OFF- (low intermediate) table tennis blades in 2026

    You’re going to need to add number of votes for each blade, and rank them thereafter. Without it, this will just turn into a large list of (mostly) popular blades. If you’re narrowing the list down to ALL…OFF-, then there are a lot of blades that are too fast in my opinion. Andro Timber 5 OFF...
  13. Review Yinhe Moon 12 Blue

    Can anyone compare the Moon Speed 53 to the Moon 12? The last four sheets of M12 I've ordered have the new top sheet (M- and M+). I second it being grippier, and having a more rich blue color. The old top sheet was ever so slightly paler. It does seem that the new version (top sheet) is...
  14. The third blade in the Tiro series will be launched in 2026

    Hopefully they will continue with the larger size of handles as on Echo and Parla? :)

  16. [Equipment Guide] Best First Intermediate Table Tennis Rubbers in 2026: A Comprehensive List & Analysis

    I only have experience with the regular Aurus, which I would suggest for intermediates on FH. The sponge is 47, but the top sheet is soft so it feels softer than most 47 degree rubbers.
  17. [Equipment Guide] Best First Intermediate Table Tennis Rubbers in 2026: A Comprehensive List & Analysis

    I tried it in the winter here in Norway, so the issue was certainly not humidity! A guy I know who also coaches beginners and intermediates tried it and agreed with my assessment. Aurus.. Maybe a bit bouncy, but definitely not more than Rakza 7.
  18. [Equipment Guide] Best First Intermediate Table Tennis Rubbers in 2026: A Comprehensive List & Analysis

    I wasn’t a fan of the Vega Europe.. For me it lacked grip, and I struggled to create spin. Moon 12 M+ is a very good BH rubber for developing IMO. Great grip, easy to use, no tensor effect but enough speed. And very inexpensive. For FH: Tibhar Aurus. Can do everything well, no excessive tensor...
  19. Good cheap blades to buy.

    Yinhe U2, U2 spin is supposed to be very good as well. If you add around 5 bucks more you can get the Sanwei Parla, which IMO is stellar for the price.
  20. Central Blade Thread (EJ welcome)

    Does the D715 and Pro-01 have the same dimensions on their handles? In shape they look very similar, as far as I can tell from pictures.
