  1. Anybody Have or Seen A Good Net Post Cap Design For Longevity?

    How about a barbed design that is narrower at the bottom and gets wider to the top. That way it can fit a variety of diameters and you just push it lower for wider holes and not so far for narrower holes.
  2. Rakza Z vs Golden Tango PS vs Nittaku Sieger PK50

    So I've used the PK50 for about two months now and can give an update. When new the PK50 is very tacky. It will hold a ball for about a second. As it wears the tackiness goes away but slowly. The grip will slowly diminsh as the speed goes up. It doesn't drop off like Dragon Grip where one...
  3. Sanding your blade

    It doesn't have to be exactly "varnish". It can be any type of sealer for wood. I just use polyurethane from Home Depot. My wood never splinters when I change rubber and helps to eliminate stains on the handle from your sweat.
  4. shoes help (don't have table tennis shoes)

    I noticed a big difference when I changed from Badminton/Volleyball shoes to proper TT shoes. The badminton shoes were too stiff and the volleyball shoes were a little heavier and higher center of gravity than TT shoes. I move much quicker with TT shoes. Of course depending on your playing...
  5. Lost interest in WTT

    As long as they don't make TT balls full of holes it will still be better.
  6. Lost interest in WTT

    Yes, that too.
  7. Lost interest in WTT

    I agree with reducing spin but comparing rallies today to before it doesn't look like speed has changed much. At least not in my calibrated eye. :cool:
  8. Lost interest in WTT

    Very true. Sadly we live in a world where attention spans are less than 30 sec and anything complicated and difficult is passed over. Another reason why baseball is declining too. Then pickleball with very little skill required is exploding. I'd rather watch paint dry then a pickleball match.
  9. Lost interest in WTT

    You do realize why they changed to the larger ball??? It's supposed to make it easier for spectators to see the ball in hopes of attracting a wider audience. There wasn't anyone watching TT so ITTF had nothing to lose. I don't know the statistics before/after to know if the change helped or...
  10. Should I upgrade my blade or change rubber?

    I never said it was the fastest blade. It is very much in the higher ranges vs all other blades. H3 is definitely too slow for me. Which is why I choose K3 for my FH. I don't have good enough footwork or stamina to use H3.
  11. Should I upgrade my blade or change rubber?

    Isn't ML5 like one of the fastest blades out there? If you don't mind giving up some tackiness try changing rubber first. Hurricane 3 is really slow because of the tack. Keep in mind if you lose tack you will lose some spin so your shots might sail long. Which means your stroke needs to change.
  12. best glue?

    I didn't think Donic Blue was anything special. It just works great for me. I bought a whole liter bottle.
  13. best glue?

    Well I use polyurethan sealer and it doesn't stick to it at all. But the Donic blue sticks great.
  14. best glue?

    Do you seal your blades? My blades are always sealed and the glue doesn't stick at all.
  15. best glue?

    It's easy to remove because it doesn't stick to anything.🤪
  16. best glue?

    I've been using the Donic Blue for a few years now. Love it. You only need one coat and it sticks even boosted curved rubbers. Removing rubber is easy and can even restick without applying more glue. I don't understand how people like Revolution. I hated it. It didn't stick at all and I...
  17. Rubbers on fh with lower throw arc

    Try Joola Dynaryz ZGR. I liked the grip and speed but the trajectory is way too low for me. So if you want low arc try that one.
  18. We need a new rating system for rubber

    I've thought about this since a long time ago. Being an engineer I've always wanted to quantify TT equipment performance but haven't been able to simplify it down. I'm sure it can be done but it will take a lot of effort. The problem with rating system now is that it's all subjective. People...
  19. Baby Lin vs Baby Harimoto

    Awww so cute. 😙
