Definitely mate...with a softer rubber like calibra sound & calibra spin, you'll be looping every long ball. It'll give you a lot of confidence.

Awww, now ain't that a shame. Would be great if we get to see them.

Yup, it's only slightly faster, but provide better control. That was what Carl meant. The CR technology involves the use of a UV varnish which under UV light cross-links and creates a hard top-surface. This light is fine enough to penetrate the wood grains on the top ply and harden the overall...

Interesting answer to the question, but I doubt his best friends want to be stuck on a deserted island. ahahahaha

Yup, also there is another thread where the members posted their videos playing so Dan could create a video montage. But unfortunately I couldn't find the link....

I'm using Ebenholz VII, which is almost the same as the rosewood. Very stiff, but wonderful feel on short games. Huge sweet spot, gives you a lot of confidence looping from anywhere. The downside...they're heavy, unless you like heavy blades. The rosewood & ebenholz V is a tad slower, but still...

Hi buddy, Personally, I think feel that offensive placements are a little easier than blocking placements. Why? Because you'll be exerting your own spin to the ball rather than having to control and ride on the opponents spin when you're blocking. When I 1st started TT, the drill that I think...

How're ya mate? Hope you'll enjoy yourself here and we look forward to your posts...:D

Anders is right...Calibra is superb. I use LT spin (BH) and LT Plus (FH). Durability is good, and cheaper than tenergys. LT Plus (very hard), LT (hard), LT Spin (medium), LT Sound (soft). LT stands for Long Trajectory/Low Throw too!!

I have the blade, and I still use it occasionally. It's a great blade. I think Sarunix is open to offers. I would change the rubber, since it's dated and worn out, and badly cut. Also, it's black...;)

Offensive placements or blocking placements? These 2 requires different sort of drills.

At 42, do you think it's too late for me to turn pro?? :D

Glad you liked it buddy! Clipper WRB really is an excellent blade. Loads of control, loads of spin, effortless...and the rubbers that you use are perfect for it. It's a crisp blade once you get your timing. You can feel the ball digging into the blade, which will give a lot of confidence looping...

If the set up is perfect, maybe in 2 days...

That was a great interview. I just wish the interviewer had asked him how he coped psychologically after his injury. I have a bad left knee after years of stamping my foot, though it doesn't hurt that much nowadays, I am still sceptical whether it will hold if I go all out with my BH and FH.

Yeah Janus....nicely done. I missed the match. Million thanks!!

You're something else buddy;) Glad to know people appreciate these rare and rather thorough interviews. It covered a lot of aspects. And the best thing is that it came from the great man himself, about his thoughts and feelings. Stuff in the 90's which you don't get a lot from the web.

You are right Richard, it was a frank and honest interview that I wish more people would read through. It gave a lot of insight of many things, such as the development of TT, his private life, his history and games, to boost or not to to boost..his answer to the question was quite interesting...

Aaahh, I see. Thanx dici. Kinda hard coz there are no translation. I sympathize with josh having to translate continuously for us. He really kept this thread alive. Thanx josh

Hahahaha my brain is just fine. It was in Czech originally. It's the best I could do. But I think, the essence of the interview is there, that even my 12 year old daughter who doesn't play TT could understand. ;)
