Nice to see that tacky isn't completely dead.

The manufacturers are going to hate this. If the balls are more durable they will sell a lot less.

Never actually 'returned' an item. Since it's shipping half way around the world. I've gotten plenty of refunds though because items don't show up. Lost of stolen in the delivery process. They just send the money with a request for an explanation. It's amazing I only receive 70-80% of my...

Did you get any bubbles yet?

what about longevity and build quality?

Pretty sad to cut down old growth Hinoki to make PP paddles.

I've noticed that my H3 Prov squeeks when I do the spin test. However during play I don't notice any slippage. I think with very light contact with less tackiness it will slip a little and give you the squeek. However when you compress the top sheet there is no squeek. I think as the rubber...

What is the big deal? Almost every Asian name is murdered by the announcers except maybe Adam B. who tries to speak correctly.

After watching a video showing a factory cutting a huge hinoki cypress tree just for TT racquets makes you think. I hope they replanted replacements after they cut down the old growth.

Don't forget impeached TWICE! Has no respect for democracy or rule of law, instigated riots, convicted criminal, guilty of fraud on and on. Just boggles the mind how people completely overlook the man's character. Perfect example of white entitlement. If it was anybody else they would be in...

I love the feeling of boosted LAC. The tackiness gives control and the hard sponge gives the punch. I love that feeling.

So is Rising Dragon tacky?

That's probably why I got a bubble. Please let us know if the Rxton works out good.

A good amount. I can't give a measurement but it was dead as a brick without booster. Afterwards it was very usable and had a nice cracking noise when hit hard. I loved the grip on slow balls and can over come any incoming spin.

I really loved my LAC with 2 layers of booster. The only problem was it developed a bubble after one week of use. :(

Tried that, Got rejected.

The listings on Aliex are so confusing. You have to look all over for fine print. I got screwed again on there. Ordered some items that never arrived and got no refund. Even though the listing said refunds guaranteed if not received. I only shop there for things I can't find anywhere else.

I used to hate tacky slow rubber. But over time I've come to appreciate the advantages. When I do short flick or full loop I can feel the ball connection to the rubber and it feels like it's locked into my racquet. I have a little better control over non tacky rubbers. Especially the short...

So that's why only Chinese rubbers are tacky anymore because there's no such thing as EPA there. :LOL:

Maybe there was some hazardous chemical they needed to make the rubber tacky. And it got banned or discontinued.
