The best TT movie I think is Ping Pong Playa. It was hilarious and the playing scenes were semi decent.

You say it's not political but in fact it is exactly political. The history is a complete crock of sh!t due to China interference. Athletes or any representative from TAIWAN are not allowed to use the country name because China doesn't recognize TAIWAN as a sovereign independent country. So...

Just amazes me how illegal gambling infiltrates all type of events. I guess if there's enough money to be made you will always attract the criminals.

In '83 I had a rubber that was golden yellow and semi transparent.

But that will be up to the manufacturers willing to carry the extra complexity. Beginner rubbers are generally less expensive therefore lower profit margins. So they will be even less inclined to carry them.

It seems the new rubbers coming out only offer the basic red and black now. The manufacturers are not making those crazy multi colored rubbers anymore. I knew when new colors were approved it would be a fad. With multiple thickness and colors each rubber would have an explosion of variants...

How "sticky" is it? Every time a non Chinese manufacturer claims "tacky" or "sticky" it's not. Can it hold a ball upside down for more than a second? Or pick up a ball from the table upside down?

You mentioned you've played Chinese rubbers when you were in university. So you already know what the H3 will be like. I haven't noticed much difference between various Chinese rubbers other than quality of manufacturing. As far as H3 it's less tacky nowadays. My preference is more towards...

Absolutely agree 150%!

Once again, it shouldn't be done in the first place because people are inconsiderate.

but I'm not referring to just one point. It happens ALL the time.

I'm always perplexed at how many people get called for flash during a match in China. Do these people not know how to turn off their flash? Are they that rude and inconsiderate to not care? If they're doing it on purpose they should be kick out of the stadium immediately.

How does this compare to the blue sponge?

So no more backspin pendulum serves or hook serves. I will have to re learn most of my serves then. Most serves will be BH with very little deception.

What is going on? Do manufacturers know something we don't? Do they think non tacky is better? What about the people who still want tack? Why can't they make both types? Tacky and Non tacky. There must be some chemical toxicity in tackiness that causes cancer or something. They just won't...

I've had the same experience with other hybrid type of ESN rubbers. Dragon grip and PK50 wears out fast too. It seems this is par for the course. When their grip starts to wear the rubber performance basically drops off the cliff.

Is Sanwei Target Nat heavier than H3?

You do know people can improve over time and training right?

It's not about being picky. It's about how sensitive they are to the equipment and how they can utilize it. Where you and I are sensitive to a superficial degree but nowhere near professional level.
