Someone should try to explain them what measurement uncertainty is. If/when they finally understand that we could continue with e.g. guard-banding and then the ITTF may be on a level that allows them to write some technical leaflets that take into account reality...

39°, 40° (Neo and non-Neo) orange sponge commercial and provincial H3s. If the 37° Neo stays on my backhand depends on how well the H8-80 plays if I can get hold of one and how well this transition works overall (had only a few brief training sessions with the 37 in the last half year due to the...

I've played with the Rakza Z for a couple of month last year on a Yasaka Sweden Extra and switched back to H3 on a faster blade. For me H3 + YEO is more controlled in the short game and over the table than YSE + RZ and at the same time more powerful away from the table. There simply is (or...

My reasoning for (probably) switching to a faster blade is somewhat different. Shorter reaction time might make a difference on a very high level but I think that in general it has more to do with wasting less energy. Playing (too) far behind the table (which I still do too often) with an...

The Aurus Sound has a very, very soft 35° sponge vs 47.5° for the Aurus Prime. Definitely not something I would recommend because these soft rubbers bottom out way too easy with the 40mm plastic ball and are not the best choice to work on technique. Is the Aurus Prime generally too fast on both...

There are many rubbers in the same "class" as the Vega Europe that could also be an option: Andro Hexer Duro, Tibhar Aurus Soft, Nittaku Factive (slightly harder than the Europe), TSP/Victas Ventus Spin (slightly softer). Yasaka Rigan/Rigan Spin or the already mentioned Vega Intro are also good...

It seems that you also played with a H3 Prov 39° on your FH. What did you not like about it compared to the G1/did you try the H3 37 on your FH?

It's already in their new catalog (last page) https://www.instagram.com/dhs.sports/ / https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/185nO3k2l-Tfg0bzX2_24eCj54hcQ-KtQ Net weight 127 kg (nearly 280 lbs) Ball frequency 30 to 85 balls/minute Ball spin: 0 to 80 revolutions/second Spin type: Top, bottom and...

What the... Just trying to compile a list of Hurricane 3s... 6 special, 7 national, 7 provincial and 6 commercial/professional versions... 26 versions... Including a commercial H3 Blue Sponge.. and all available with different sponge hardnesses... Additionally we now have Hurricane 8...

For some reasons I can access (obviously :)) the forum (https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/) but browsing to https://www.tabletennisdaily.com directly results in an error message from Cloudflare (Error 522 Ray ID: 63c3a78028759c5d • 2021-04-07 13:38:05 UTC Connection timed out...

I think Nittaku Japan uses a different hardness scale than in Europe. E.g. https://www.nittaku.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/aace22023762f51399f1a5fb723ac6de.pdf lists the FastArc G-1 with 37.5° (47.5 ESN) and both Nittaku H3 National Blue Sponge and Nittaku H3 (Provincial) Neo (NR-8701) with...

According to http://www.cnpingpang.com/portal.php?mod=view&aid=60803 the H8-80 will come with a lighter, 37° and 38° hard sponge. At least that is what Google Translate tells me "This time, Double Happiness has launched 37 and 38 degrees of Hurricane 8-80... So, on the sponge, Kuangbiao 8-80 is...

I wouldn't directly switch from a slow, flexible Appelgren Allplay to a fast, stiff blade like the Clipper. In between are a couple of good options like the mentioned Stratus Power Wood (or Bty Korbel or the slower Primorac) which should be quite similar but faster or something like the Donic...

If you still have the original authentication sticker/hologram from the packaging you can check the code at http://www.dhs-sports.com/search.shtml (afaik only available in Chinese). Apart from that I would also say that that's either the typical variance in different production runs/factories...

Maybe Dibutyl Sebacate is easier to buy here 😉 "It can be used for plastics in use in the food packaging industry, in plastics used for medical devices, and for pharmaceutical applications, e.g. as a plasticizer for film coating of tablets, beads, and granules.[2] It is also used as a lubricant...

One reason not to use 2.2 mm sponges at least for rubbers like the H3 is if you want to play official league matches or tournaments especially when you boost. The maximum rubber thickness including all glue layers must be <= 4.0 mm. What booster do you use? I get this when using paraffin/baby...

Isn't the Omar Assar blade an inner carbon blade? The Froster looks like an outer carbon blade.

Seems to have a Viscaria-like structure: "Ex-C Froster, made by KOTO surface, Kevlar-Carbon Fibre and Kiri core.". No details on thickness and weight yet. https://sanweisport.com/english/product/blade/expert-carbon/froster/

As Carl said H3 on BH is quite hard to use at least if it's not the "soft" 37° variant. So the first thing I would do is to try the H3 on FH and the Vega Pro on BH. If the Vega Pro is too hard/fast for your BH than switch that to something slower/softer like the Vega Europe. Blade: Xiom...
