I can choose between an Allround Evolution, or a slightly more expensive Offensive Classic, no WRB. Should I just choose purely based on price here? I see Carl put the Evolution before the Offensive: do you recommend it?

I will take a look. I have more than a basic understanding how natural frequencies of objects work and what adding a hole will do, so the WRB thing sounded like it'd just be too fast for me. Good I checked here, then. I also like a slightly heavier setup, so the normal alternative would be...

Hello. I have a choice between Stiga Allround Classic ALL and the Stiga Offensive Classic WRB OFF-. I will be buying Friendship 729 FX with it. Which should I go for if they are both well in my budget? @Der_Echte mentioned I can probably handle an OFF-, but what do you think of this blade in...

With a name that ends in "monga", it's hard to not be called a monger. ;) Thanks for taking offence and trying to put the blame on people, though. :rolleyes:

Well, that monger sure does fit my impression of what he'd look like a lot more.

Shuki, I am considering your suggestion. Just understand that I am not in a grave situation right now and I am not on the verge of being on the street. If you truly want to assist me monetarily, it's not something I can ask of you, but to really be honest, I'd not turn it down if you insist...

Thanks for the offer, Shuki, but I think it's a bit too much for me. The price/quality ratio is very good though, and I'm honored you'd want to give me an offer like that. It's hard to become completely homeless in Finland, but it is still a thing. The benefits system attempts to keep a roof...

Hahah. Humor is best in times like these. :p I don't feel fear or a lot of anxiety over all this. I'm just annoyed at it and I know it's a grind I'll have to endure, or I just die of the cold and starvation. Either one happens, it happens. I've been described to be really calm under severe...

Well, status update. I'm not going to be getting any equipment, because it won't do me any good because there's a chance I won't have a house to live in soon. I'd rather use the 60e on food. I was expecting S to not HTF but S is H:ing the F, in a typical fashion. So I'm going to have to deal...

Carl, could I have a laydown on the Stiga handles? I already have a case, and I wipe my rubbers, so that's no problem.

Well it seems my post got eaten. So, have this edit I made. I might be able to convince my dad. I'm thinking of buying a Stiga Allround Classic alongside Friendship 729 FX on both sides, in either standard or blue sponge, whichever is better. From TT11. Experiences with the handles? I'm using...

I understand. I might be able to convince my dad. I have more than enough free money from my birthday for a 60eur setup. I'm looking to order the best one I can as soon as I can. I will still keep working on my technique, though. Even if my setup is a premade, it does seem to reward good...

Carl, the forearm lags slightly behind the upper arm, and the wrist lags behind the forearm. It's because he's relaxed. It essentially creates a whip because they snap forward on contact without conscious action from the player. monster, the arc on my slow loops is noticeable, and people...

The technique I demonstrated in the slow loop video and the one I was doing today are different entirely. I've watched all of Brett's videos, and I understand the concepts and can apply them. I just feel that the rubber I'm using won't spin the ball unless I apply maximum force in exactly the...

Archo-saurus. My jimjobs are not jumbled, thus no sore azz. :p Also, I believe the proper term for the technique is "woop woop, wrist loop".

It's going to be hard to get more spin and speed. Both were far more in these shots than you think I'm capable of. They were more than I thought I'm capable of. I'd honestly settle for half this spin if I could just produce it consistently. With this equipment, I think it's either low spin or...

Up to the 2600's players are definitely amateurs and have big holes in their game and fundamentals, but a 2000 will absolutely destroy a 1800 while a 2400 doesn't even need to lift a finger against a 2000. 1800 is considered a pretty good player and 2000 is quite solid and considered an expert...

I think I accidentally my spin. I took out another not so crappy premade but still premade I have (The pimple composition is not rubbish and it's not dead, so it spins a little nicer) and started swinging as hard as I can, trying to vary my blade angle to produce different contact. Carl said...

It's ArchosauRUS. I don't know what I'd rate the players. They are quite solid, but still have some holes. Consistency is not good enough to be pro level, but the spin looks to also be very high, far higher than anyone under 2400 seems to put out. So the consistency might be due to that. Both...
