  1. New Stiga Mantra Pro

    How would you compared Nittaku Hammond Z2 compared to G-1, P-1, C-1 and S-1? I have played with G-1 and C-1. I like both of them. G-1 was better for my backhand on the wood blade. C-1 is now better for my backhand on the composite blade. Now that you mentioned it, I am debating if I should get...

  3. My Personal Guide to Rubbers on Aliexpress

    Shockingly DHS table tennis store and Table-Tennis store shipments arrived today so I got my Lemuria blades. BEO is the slowest apparently....lol...
  4. Top 10 Best Backhand Rubbers of All Time

    I think you really have to keep the blade into consideration. When I used to play with 5-ply wood blade, I really really enjoyed G-1 on my backhand side. Now that I am using carbon, I like the softer C-1 much much better on that side. I don't think one can talk about rubber without taking the...
  5. Xiom Vega Korea Review

    Yes, I mean, Rakza 7 soft and C-1 which I use are about $44-$45 a piece. Vega at $37, if you EJ a lot, that price differene can add up. I have one sheet of Vega Europe and one sheet of Vega X. I like them so far. Not sure if I want to try Vega Pro and/or Vega Korea next. I am just digesting some...
  6. How to avoid buying fake blades or rubbers online?

    A couple of my H3 neo looks beat up like that, as though it is scratched. I honestly do not notice any performance issue. The key for me is, is the surface still tacky tacky? If so, I will keep on using it. If not, I just throw it away. I have used BEO shop a couple times. They seem to be good...

    I am not at the level to use those rubbers! Once I get better and I stop EJ'ing, then I will score a couple of them :) :)
  8. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Don't worry. Just intentionally lose before open singles finals. I am sure they don't check..... Ok, just kidding. It has been 10+ years since I last played in tournament but I don't think they really check that hard...

    I am literally salivating right now....! Blue Spong...and National brand specifically!!!!
  10. Xiom Vega Korea Review

    I did not realize Megaspin would know such a thing. I thought Megaspin is more like a third-party middle men, meaning they don't carry any inventory and they just get a cut from the sellers when they act as the middle men to make the transaction happen. I will probably wait until TT11 carries it.
  11. Should I upgrade my blade or change rubber?

    I might even ask him to go softer than MX-D. Maybe FX-D?
  12. Xiom Vega Korea Review

    Awesome! Is the sponge soft. Like is it more like XIom Pro v.s. Xiom X, or it is more like Xiom Vega Europe? And the top ship is more grip than Pro, X and Europe? Thank you for your feedback!
  13. Why Ma Long 5 Price Differences - $249.95 vs. $161.15

    Maybe I let it dry for too long? Like overnight?
  14. Why Ma Long 5 Price Differences - $249.95 vs. $161.15

    Since I am testing a lot of blades and rubbers combination each time, if I can help it, I let the rubber and the blade sit overnight. I have so many blades out at once, I am not in too much of a hurry!
  15. Why Ma Long 5 Price Differences - $249.95 vs. $161.15

    Ok, I will turn that 500ml bottle upside down for a while. Let us see if I can salvage that bottle! In the mean time, I will be using Free Chack Pro II.
  16. My Personal Guide to Rubbers on Aliexpress

    Lol, don't tempt me. I have like 7 blades coming in. I also have Palio Ak-47, Palio CJ8000, Mercury II 2.2mm sponge (yes I paid $11 a piece for 2.2mm sponge; 2.0mm sponge costs only $6.80 on BEO store), Jupiter 3 Asia, Big Dipper red 38 degree (I was disappointed by the black 40 degree but I am...
  17. Should I upgrade my blade or change rubber?

    Yeah. Agree. We have got a problem. My H3 regular, H3 neo and Stiga Genesis were all bought from TT11 so I am used to looking at those writings. I cannot decipher the writing on your sponge.
  18. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Agree. Some coaches run me ragged during multi-ball training and they wanted me to keep going. I am like, what's the point? I will just pick up bad habits. I did pick up a few bad habits when I was growing up, training, and those habits continue to plague me. Some coaches, once they see that you...
  19. My Personal Guide to Rubbers on Aliexpress

    Great. I always stick hurricane on my forehand on all blades anyway. I will see how Stuor Harimoto performs. I ordered Yinhe 970XX blade and you want me to do a quick review on that. Let us see when that blade arrives. I am surprised how fast Stuor 2017 store delivered from Aliexpress. They...
  20. Why Ma Long 5 Price Differences - $249.95 vs. $161.15

    I responded on the glue thread. I don't know. I used the 250ml bottle of Revolution 3 normal (which is the least viscous version). It worked ok. Not the best. So I ordered a 500ml bottle of Revolution 3 normal from TT11 and that one sucked big time. I cannot get three sets of rubber to stick on...
