  1. Why Mima left using @Nittaku Hurricane hybrid rubber.

    I understand what you are saying. So only Butterfly rubbers are Japanese? All else are made in the German ESN factory?
  2. Why Mima left using @Nittaku Hurricane hybrid rubber.

    Wait. Is she using Nittaku Fastarc G-1 which is a Japanese rubber or is she using DHS hurricane 3 (even if it is Nittaku's version, to me, that is still a Chinese rubber albeit overpriced since it has Nittaku stamped on it)?
  3. Why Mima left using @Nittaku Hurricane hybrid rubber.

    Just watching the World's championship with Mima Ito playing against Diaz and came upon this thread. No way Mima Ito should switch her backhand from short pips to inverted rubber. Just look at all the top ranking women who are Chinese: Sun Yingsha, Wang Manyu, Wang Yidi, Chen Meng, Chen...
  4. Is it possible to put Hurricane on Super ZLC Blade?

    I don't know. What level of player are you? Watch TableTennis11 on Youtube and type in Hurricane. They literally just reviewed the commerical, provincial and national. Half of them were being honest: no difference among them whatsoever. Half of them said they like the blue sponge provincial the...

    Please tells how you like the Tibhar balls and Double fish balls. I have never used them. Where do you get this shipment from?
  6. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Lol I already bought one sheet via GEO, the reseller, from Aliexpress. I am still waiting for that shipment to arrive to see if I trust Aliexpress (first time user). How do you like Rxton 5? Do you like it? I also ordered a blue Rxton 3 and a pink Rxton 3 just to spice up my paddles. I know that...
  7. Received Rakza Z instead of Rakza 7!

    Got it. Customer service is very good at Megaspin as well!
  8. Are Lebrun brothers just developing a permanent reputation for bad sportsmanship?

    I saw that. I mean people chos all the time. What is there to say they are doing in the middle or at the end of the rally. In that point, both players were playing the point. Lind ended the rally prematurely to make a complaint. And he still lost the point. At the end, both players got into it...
  9. Post your latest EJ purchase

    3 black H3 neo installed on one side. 1 red H3 installed on the last blade. Just waiting all of the blades to dry and install the other side to the rackets.
  10. New "Rules" for Table Tennis

    Ovtcharov's backhand serve from the world championship, the toss is low and then he brings his racket up to hit the ball. the serve is balantly illegal. I think in one match he was warned but a point was never taken away. Now, do I think that he is gaining a lot of advantage from that? Probably...
  11. Are Lebrun brothers just developing a permanent reputation for bad sportsmanship?

    agree. Lebrun brothers do not do anything to "compliment" anyone.... So Harimoto's screaming v.s Lebrun's sarcasm...which one would you rather have in the sport?
  12. Is my h3n National real or why is it shiny?

    How is the grip of the top sheet? How does the sponge play?
  13. Is it possible to put Hurricane on Super ZLC Blade?

    Yes, STN is like trying a Chinese rubber with some euro/jap rubber quality attached to it. Very good control. One of my club mates asked me to hit with his Joola Tango because he knows I use H3 neo and I have been trying out K1 and K2. I did NOT like Joola Tango at all. Slow and not sticky...
  14. Sanwei target national new version

    Lol, did they put some special component in their Butterfly Free Chack glue? I used Revolution Nr.3, Glue Normal Viscosity to glue my STN black and STN red sheets. Neither time it curled up like that. I am sure it does not affect the play. As for after you take off the plastic cover, yes, it...
  15. Which Hurricane 3 should I choose?

    I never used H3 neo provincial and national. I have ony used H3 neo commercial. And I have zero urge to buy any of the provincial and national offering. No interest whatsoever.
  16. Received Rakza Z instead of Rakza 7!

    Better yet. Tell them you are going to keep the Z and ask them to send you a 7 for free. Not sure if they will do it! I use TT11 exclusively while supplementing some stuff here and there from Megaspin. Paddle Palace is really not that competitive anymore, unfortunately. Paddle Place is a great...
  17. Sanwei target national new version

    No, I keep the plastic cover on. I just don't like anything dirt or blue on the rubber when I do the installation process. Then when I am ready to place the rubber onto the blade, I use a ball countainer (as a roller) to roll the rubber onto the blade. Now, the plastic on the rubber does look...
  18. Does Rakza 7 generate good spin?

    He should sign up! I have a K1 and a K2 (K2 before TT11 discontinued it). If I want to use K2, I will have to get it from Aliexpress. I like both rubbers. However, I have always gone back to Chinese rubbers. I am impressed that he can spin the heck out of MX-P. I have used EL-S, FX-P and I have...
  19. Is it possible to put Hurricane on Super ZLC Blade?

    Yes I feel that after playing with two sheets of STN (unboosted) and 18-20 sheets of H3 neo 39 degree (all boosted) that the STN with blue sponge does not need to be boosted. It comes right out of the package and within 10 minutes I can play with it very well. For H3 neo, I always boost it with...
  20. Sanwei target national new version

    Yayyyyy! I saw Timo Boll and Dimitrij Ovtcharov both put two layers of Butterfly Free chack glues on the rubber. Not sure why? I think one of them like to stretch the rubber a bit when laying it down on the blader to create some tension. The other one does not like the stretch the rubber. They...
