  1. Flared handle sizes: Viscaria vs. FZD ALC vs. TB ALC

    I've tried the TB ALC in FL (not the Vis or FZD) and I didn't find it unmanageable in terms of size. Not perfect, but viable..
  2. Does anyone buy balls from Ali Express?

    We use these too for training. More than good enough for club play IMO.
  3. Flared handle sizes: Viscaria vs. FZD ALC vs. TB ALC

    Thank you. Would you say, and I know this might sound like a stupid question but nevertheless, that it has the handle most suited to large hands?
  4. Flared handle sizes: Viscaria vs. FZD ALC vs. TB ALC

    If anyone have or have tried all three, could you please give me some input on which of these have the largest handle? Or the handle most suitable for larger hands?
  5. Compare rubber H3 and Jupiter 3

    Have you considered Dig Dipper 38? Also very good on BH IMO. Easier to use than J3, I think.
  6. Downgrading from FX-P

    So you feel this change was a step in the right direction, I hope? :)
  7. Do Butterfly blades need sealing?

    Butterfly factory seal/treat their blades - at least for the Japan made ones. I remember reading somewhere where a guy had contacted BTY about this, and posted the reply he got. The gist of it was that it is treated some way (I think it said waxed actually), and they did not recommend to further...
  8. Building an "Equipment Gauntlet" – Recommendations needed!

    STN3 (atleast the new one in purple packaging), LAC, Jupiter 3 Asia and Big Dipper can all be played just fine without boosting.
  9. Any online gamers over here?

    I’ve got close to 5k hours in CSGO and CS2 combined. But I don’t play as much now as I used to.
  10. Is there a subjectively perfect weight to every blade?

    My guess on the big vs small venue is that bigger, modern venues usually have a HVAC system designed to keep the pressure inside slightly higher than on the outside, as it's easier to control the temperature in a large space when you don't have outside air leaking in to the venue. At least this...
  11. Should I buy specific equipment or experiment?

    Considering the price of a FZD ALC, I would make sure to actually test one before buying. It might feel like a divine revelation to you, but it might also feel like it's just another good blade. The Pro-01 is very good IMO.
  12. Modernised 1980s Blade Project - Custom Sanwei Balsa Inner-ALC

    Cool! What kind of price range are we talking about?
  13. Strong forehand but weak backhand

    T05 is NOT what longle meant with his recommendation. Not remotely close. Try something like Mercury 2, BD 38, H3N 37 or Moon 12 M-
  14. Modernised 1980s Blade Project - Custom Sanwei Balsa Inner-ALC

    So I'm not misunderstanding you; you're getting Sanwei to make a custom blade for you? Do they have a service for this?
  15. My new Setups problem

    I was almost sure this was an attempt at trolling OP, but it actually worked! I made sure to test when nobody could see me though. Since we're discussing pitch and vibrations, do you think both blades in this video sounds OK? I have a slight feeling that the second blade have an issue, since...
  16. Blade’s weight depending on humidity? How much?

    So I got another example of a U2, because why the hell not, I'm a grown man (at least physically, probably not mentally) that makes his own money etc. etc. The first one in the video is the first I got, which I think sounds good, but the second one, I feel sounds a bit more muted or "muddy"...
  17. Is it unfair to say “yes”/“cho” when the opponent makes an error?

    Bad advice. In most lower level leagues the umpire is just another player who have to sit there as most of the matches don't have dedicated umpires. You will get away with a lot more disrespectful behavior than you should.
  18. Other ways to cheat

    Wipe the ball with sweat. Call net when their serve is a bit too tricky (and decently low). Make sure to serve before your opponent is 100% ready.
  19. Best all wood blade?

    Timber 5 Off is the fastest 5-ply all-wood I own. Stiff, but with a decently soft feeling thanks to the limba outer ply. Vibrations are minuscule. Very light, 80-83 g usually. Faster than TSPW, Offensive S and YEO, which I all have, and thus faster than a Korbel, which should be slightly slower...
  20. Is it a bad ideia to cut? help

    If you’re willing to risk destroying the blade (worst case) I don’t see why you couldn’t. Most CPen blades have a slightly different blade face geometry than their shakehand counterparts though. I think the key here is figuring out a way to cut it cleanly without causing delamination.
