I finally got to practice against a 2000 player today. Previously he was rated 2080, but today sits around 2000. Apart from his higher level, I feel his style is my kryptonite. He stands very close to the table and smashes the ball from both sides right off the bounce. His style is just all...
Isn't it a risk as a seller that Loki gets their rubbers wrong so often?
If you sell a rubber to a customer and it immediately bubbles, does the customer ask you for a refund? How do you handle such situation?
@mattlamperouge @mocker88
Can you ask your Loki agent their policy on rubber hardness? I find that Loki's hardness is really random. I don't know how to interpret their hardness ratings.
I have received 2 Rxton 5 that are listed as H41, but feel and measure closer to H38

I didn't realize film was so important for rubbers. Most of my rubbers I just leave in the racket case or in the ziploc without a film cover.
I don't see anything bad happening to the rubber.

Another thought I had is maybe I...
I'm pretty sure the edge of the rubber isn't touching anything. There is even a pad on that edge prevent it from touching the table.
And the black side is my bh rubber.
Hes my favorite player today. Seems really talented with good fh and bh. He has a fierce yet stable style. He looks to me like his fh is 5% worse than ML and his bh is 5% better.
New replacement rxton pink seems the same as first. Printed H39, but feels hard like 40.5 to 41.
Same fast, grippy, hard, tacky, good rubber. The biggest drawback is the risk of boosting it
H8 on backhand is simply awesome. With booster, its fast, its spinny, its responsive, has good control, its just awesome. It is slightly sensitive though, so you gotta be active.
H3 on bh is really good too.
Is Victas v20 a hybrid rubber with some tackiness?
The description says:
Victas V>20 Double Extra Table Tennis Rubber combines European tension technology's attacking power and dynamics with the advantages offered by Chinese pips geometry.
The V>20 produces vigorous attacking power and...
