  1. Using coach's 2nd Viscaria w/Dignics 09C!

    Yeah, that's why I have been EJ'ing. I don't read too much about rubber or blade reviews anymore. I just pick what I like and get something similar to it and slowly EJ'ing from there. It is more productive that way.
  2. Using coach's 2nd Viscaria w/Dignics 09C!

    It must be me then. I cannot spin much with Viscaria. I like blades softer and slower than Viscaria. It shows on my forehand serve. With slower carbon blade than Viscaria, I can always win a couple cheap points off my forehand serve. But with Viscaria, I just have trouble generating the same...
  3. Using coach's 2nd Viscaria w/Dignics 09C!

    When you said coach's second Viscaria, does he have another Viscaria? The reason I asked is that I do not like my Viscaria. I swear there gotta be some quality control issue. Some people love it and some people hate it. Or maybe it is just because Viscaria is so hyped up, people like me have...
  4. Using different boosters per boost

    I have tried Haifu Seamoon on some rubbers and Falco Tempo long on others. I cannot tell any dfference. I currently have four bottles of Haifu Seasmoon 100ml and three bottles of Falco Tempo long 150ml. I get my Haifu Seamoon 100ml bottles from Aliexpress and Falco Tempo Long 150ml bottles from...
  5. Heavy but flexible blade.

    I second that opinion. Get a blade that has a big head. A well balanced blade, carbon, with big head and with a bit of flex but not too much, at an affordable price: Tibhar Samsonov Stratus Carbon You will like it.
  6. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Inner carbon or outer carbon? I have outer carbon. It is very fast. I would put H3 skyline neo because it is a bit slower than H3 regular neo on forehand. I would then put Xiom Vega Europe in the backhand because again, the blade is very fast. I would not put C-1, Rakza 7 soft, G-1, Xiom Vega...
  7. A pathetic situation?

    Who is the club owner? You may want to talk to him/her. I think everyone should play with each other. One club I go to is way bigger, and the club coach/owner will tell people to play with each other and will keep track of time and kick people off to let other people play. The other club I...
  8. [Help] Need to find 729 Rubber For Backhand

    If you like the set up, then stick with Dig09c on the BH. You really cannot find a chinese equivalent. Dig09c should last a long time so instead of trying various rubbers, stick with Dig09c and it should be cheaper for you in the long run.
  9. Xiom Omega VII Pro cheaper alternative

    Please see below. You can check out the website yourself. Supposedly X has the same captapult effect (Elasto Futura) as Omega 7 rubbers. Whether that is true or not, I am not sure. The best way to describe Asia is, it is in between Europe and Pro, in terms of speed and catapult effect...
  10. Xiom Omega VII Pro cheaper alternative

    I have not tried Xiom Omega VII pro. But I have tried Vega X and Vega Pro. I like both of them. I cannot say too much because those are not my main rubber right now. I am using Vega Asia mostly. I have various DHS, 729 and Yinhe rubbers. I do not recommend them. They don't have that catapult...
  11. Rate my budget build

    Please let me know which set up you like better. I have a Sanwei CC, brand new, still in plastic wrapping. I have not put any rubber on it yet. I wonder how that blade plays. Thanks!
  12. Rate my budget build

    Got it. So you are using Gambler Wingwood racket with Mercury 2 (medium) for BH and Reactor Tornado V5 for FH? I think you are off to a good start!
  13. Rate my budget build

    Let us know how it goes! Yeah I like Gambler blade but I do not like Gambler rubber at all.
  14. Haifu rubbers are they good?

    Mercury is the only one that is as tacky as the old hurricane. But no catapult and too slow. I am still looking for the old hurricane.... Battle II is promising but I keep on getting sucked into doubles match where my partner does not want to lose so I am not able to EJ the stuff I put on lately.
  15. Haifu rubbers are they good?

    Haifu Whale is as tacky as Mercury II and Hurricane?
  16. Haifu rubbers are they good?

    I usually don't wait for the curl to go down. I just slap the rubber on but that does make it harder to glue. Someone mentioned that you should put a book on it overnight and the rubber will become more flat. I agree with that. I think hurricane boosted does come alive. I have boosted Big...
  17. Advice to improve my game.

    I am bit confused about the discussion here. Are we talking about how to loop at 2100 level or how to loop for the beginners? If I were to teach beginners how to loop, I would feed them no spin ball in a multiball setting. However, I would ask them to keep their paddle completely open, so...
  18. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    I rather have hurricane neo commerical with orange sponge for $19 and change. :)
  19. Why does Butterfly make sponges in 2.1 and 1.9mm?

    I am not an expert in Butterfly products but I imagine 2.1mm sponge of Dignics 05 or Tenergy 05 hard is plenty fast. I don't think you need to go to 2.2mm sponge. I just ordered a sheet of Dignics 64 1.9mm to try and a sheet of Tenergy 80 1.9mm to try for the exact reason as stated above. I am...
  20. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    ESN. You get 30% discount if you buy $350 at TT11, and let us be honest, Gozo, your EJ innerself is popping through so you should just go to town in terms of your shopping. Since you love Tenergy and MX-P so much, my I suggest MX-D or EL-D or both since you can splurge. Plus Rakaz XX which I...
