I love these "loaded" openings... if they land not too close to the net i.e. one has to counter (loop) or block over the table or below the table which can be tricky one has just to adjust racket angle and aim for one or two ball diameters over the net and hit through the spin... 38 mm time...

How fast? We can approximate that.From Kinematic Parameters of Topspin Forehand in Table Tennis and Their Inter- and Intra-Individual Variability https://www.jssm.org/volume19/iss1/cap/jssm-19-138.pdf we get "Studies related to the evaluation of kinematic and kinetic parameters of this stroke...

Just a few hours if all goes well ;)

Just some first impressions. Not yet tested (our venue reopens next week...) only some bouncing, spin bounce tests etc. Ordered one black and one red (medium) hard Dragon-F. Thanks ttdd.eu for the very fast shipping. Black: 91g with packaging, 69g with protective foil, 164 mm x 164 mm, cut and...

Even Butterfly does that if you pay them 5€ extra https://de.butterfly.tt/gewichtsselektion.htmlIf Stiga does not do that I'll wait until these blades are available from shops that offer this service and/or where I can test them before buying.

Short review of the Dragon-F in German with English subtitles ;)

46.12€ incl. VAT for the orange sponge... even without VAT that would be 38.76€ for OS and 48.51€ for the BS... I have no idea what Aliexpress is doing there but I could save one cent if I would order from NewNew Store ;) https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005002398273270.html

At least available but 57.73 € incl. VAT for a blue sponge vs 29.90€ for the same from https://www.speed-and-spin.com/product-page/youngshine-dingtian + 19,60€ for shipping them from France to Germany...

What's also interesting is that Kreanga plays with a soft BH rubber (T05FX) and Patrick Decker, the attacker in the 3. Bundesliga match, also plays soft rubbers (Joola Samba+ on a Primorac Carbon)

Interesting/didn't knew that someone was selling them in Germany https://www.futurespin.de/tischtennis-shop/tischtennisbelaege-tischtennisbelag/loki-belaege/loki-rxton-3.html all four colors available 22.90€ incl. VAT

OK, I've found some images of the Z1 https://www.tt-spin.de/donic-bluestorm-z1/ It seems to have even shorter pimples than the Z2. Both are afaik rubbers with the same ESN technology. Maximum sponge with a thin(ner/nish) topsheet.Edit: Zwill was faster.

http://www.stigasports.cn/product/diban/nct/267.html / https://stiga.world.tmall.com/ They are still selling this blade and a lot more products like the Tube Light in China that are not available over here...

It might be the other way round ;) At least my Z2 doesn't have long, thin pimples. Grips the ball very well in dry environments but for me barely playable in high/higher humidity environments and don't reglue unless you want to boost this rubber (shrinks quite a lot).

That's a fancy looking package :) 64g incl. protective foil is quite light. If I remember correctly my B2 sheets were 17.something cm x 17.something cm so cut and glued weight on a standard blade should be around 45g or 10% less than B2

If Craig played on the same level as Paul than we can use the German TTR to compare Paul Drinkhall https://en.ttbl.de/ttbl-spielerportrait/paul-drinkhall TTR value of 2490 Louis Price 2064 TTR around the same level as Miika from Pongfinity. Both are currently playing in Germany.

Found by accident: Decathlon has also some clones TTW900 All+ = sort of Yasaka Ma Lin Carbon or HL5 (limba, ayous, carbon, ayous, carbon, ayous, limba) 5.6 mm, 90g TTW900 Off- = Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive (walnut, spruce, ayous) 5.9 mm, 93g TTW900 Off = koto, ALC, limba, kiri, limba, ALC...

Yep, and not only the stream. The matches were awesome. So much high level TT, so many great rallies and shots. Just awesome. Great commentator.

Pongfinity vs TTD would be really great to see :) Maybe meet in the middle (Denmark) ;) Beast 2064 QTTR and Miika 2110 QTTR are on the same level in Germany.

Is the Beast playing for ASV Grünwetterbach? 2064 QTTR. That's quite a level and possibly he's training with there 1. Bundesliga team?

Rematch Frog vs Founder?
