Thanks brabhamista, i was waitin' for this to be posted. :)

Totally agree, but... No television - no sponsorship - small prize money. It's all connected. The ITTF made so many rule changes to get more spectators from the mass of non-players (e.g. bigger balls, games to 11, and so on) and still the spectators don't come in masses. The thing is if...

It's basically two different things. One thing is reviving an old topsheet. The other is sponge expansion that causes the topsheet to stretch. I just found this video for topsheet reviving.

Hahaha. Happy new year then, brabhamista. It's really a sweet dream. :) I agree with you again. I just like to add one thing. I really hope Karlsson, Källberg and Düsseldorf gonna benefit from each other, but as we've just seen, it doesn't always work out well, like in Franziska's case. Some...

I'm 44 yo

Well, i've played with all offered thicknesses of Tenergy05 and only had a couple of hits with t05fx but i mainly use it on BH and i must say the difference between 1.7 and 1.9 is noteable but not that huge. The thing is with thinner sponges the chances are fairly higher for the rubber to...

That is quite surprising, cause it's not yet on the official xiom website www.xiomtt.com Must be one of the first batches then. Great. :)

Ok, that explains a bit. Thanks ;)

Well, i was just about to replace my old Nittaku-DHS H3 with a Rising Dragon. The sheet has already arrived, but i just also received a h3 rubber unexpectedly a couple of days ago, so the RD's still gotta wait a bit. I'll keep you posted what i think of the replacement in a couple of weeks.

Sorry for offtopic: Hey Schlaftablette, i like your name... Have you ever been to germany or do you have german friends? You're name sounds pretty german. ;)

I don't think it's already available. I believe 2nd quarter of this year.

Great topic. I've been askin' this everytime i meet someone from another country. Nice idea, violoniste18. Will be great to hear/read. The level of your top league in France is really high, with many good players taking part. I think that is great for european tabletennis. I like seeing...

I'm not sure if this is 100% accurate. Prause is Director of sports for the DTTB and works for the DTTZ the German Tabletennis Center, which happens to be in Düsseldorf, but AFAIK he doesn't have an engagement with Borussia Düsseldorf. So i don't think these two shall be mixed up.

I've seen this rubber on the website of a TT-Shop, and it looks actually quite promising and a bit cheaper than the Rising Dragon i've ordered, but what i found a bit suspicious was the term 'National'. 'National' from which Nation? Surely not CNT, cause they use DHS, or isn't that exclusively...

Their PR-output is quite professional. Not very much information is shared. As far as i've heard/read was Düsseldorf's manager Andreas Preuss pretty surprised about this, whereas Franziska was saying that he was happy for the change and also was happy about more self-sufficiency and...

I know exactly what you're talkin' 'bout. I think it's generally quite difficult to make sarcasm understandable on the web. But who is able to read between the lines should be able to understand. ;)

This could be quite interesting as well. One of my teammates uses the regular version, and was actually lookin' for something new. Thanks for sharing. :)

Ok, no problem. You're welcome.

Hey brabhamista, great post. Absolutely accurate. I'd like to add that Patrick Franziska has signed with 1.FC Saarbrücken TT and will join Apolonia's Team from next season on. Filus has a new contract in Fulda for two more years. Emmanuel Lebesson will most likely be playing for Vaillante...

Wow. So much experience in playing quality shots in one single room... How many times have these guys been hitting balls all summed up? Must be millions i think. Thanks for sharing.
