Looking for a bat that makes me faster

If we are being conservative, then you should only upgrade your rubber when you can consistently attack (say, 3+ topspin attack shots in a row) during match play, and you still need more speed/spin from your rubber to actually win points, providing your technique is correct. I am definitely not...

T05 and T05 FX are registered as two different topsheets in ITTF, although it is possible that they are actually identical. Are you aware of the "bottom-out" effect with soft sponges? This is one possibility for FX to be less spinny. In addition, factory boosting done by Butterfly would be...

Material properties of the rubber that can affect spin generation include (probably not limited to): - the surface grip/frictional coefficient of the topsheet - tackiness of the topsheet (overlaps with grip, but tackiness also slows down the ball so we need an additional variable for that) -...

One thing to consider is how far away are you usually when you play. If you use SP, usually you will stay close to the table, and sometimes go to mid-table (~1m away). So if you like to loop with FH far away from the table (2m +), then both sides will have very different rhythms and it may take...

Most pro players seem to be quite conservative regarding equipment choices. Why drastically change your setup, risk months of transition period, for a (fractional) increase in spin at the expense of loss in speed, and potentially end up being worse than before? They can also switch to D09c...

just glued it on for 1 week, can't tell yet.

Good spin but also spin sensitive. Against topspin I feel comfortable, but opening up needs focus and commitment. Speed is good enough to keep the pressure up. I use it for RPB so can't comment on serve or push. It's 70g uncut so not light.

Hi, I recently switched from Jupiter 3 to Rasanter R47 on my forehand. Whilst the R47 is lovely in many aspects, my short spinny backspin serve disappeared. Two questions: 1) Any tips on technique for me to adapt to serving with R47? 2) Any non-tacky rubbers (not hybrid) that makes it easy to...

Since the violin is a OFF- blade back in speed glue Era, it is not surprising that it is the slowest of all three. I have a Banda Virgo which I believe is a 38mm Era ALL blade, and that is SLOW...

even the 968s?

Butterfly is one of the most, if not the most, popular TT brand. They are famous for Tenergy and Dignics, often regarded as the best rubbers in their generations. Rozena, is often recommended for beginners and intermediate players. It is, in my eyes, Tenergy-lite. Less top speed and spin, but...

181 g seems standard. It could be the centre of mass. How much does the blade weight alone? you can try requesting the shop to give you the available weight and pick the lightest one.

Timo Boll ALC could also feel bouncier than Harimoto ALC because it's ALC layers are closer to the surface.

Yes that was me. When I first started playing, I spent all my time doing the ghost serve/heavy backspin serve. As I progressed I found that my opening up and topspin-to-topspin rally skills became the bottleneck of my game. Now I spend more time working on the fundamentals (rallying and...

I always go for max. Upgrading the rubber (more speed & spin) and going down in thickness (less speed & spin) simultaneously seems counter-productive.
