In the auction the seller says this blade was not for sale in shops. Its a unique piece as he states it. It probably didnt get a Donic name ever.

Such sad news. My condolences to you and your family Carl. I wish U to be strong in these difficult times.

My "rasanterer" was not meant to be a grammatically correct word, haha. But your explanation is indeed correct. I know very well how the table tennis industry works (without knowing all the details of course), and indeed most products are made by for example ESN (and some other factory...

Guys, what will they find next ? Rasanterers ??? Stop buying from bullshit marketing companies !! Andro just buys rubbers at the german ESN factory and makes some marketing bullshit campaign around them. I mean , do you remember their incredibly infantile Rasant comics video's ? Just like...

SPAM alert !!!!!!!!!!

Yes indeed , these XSF one star balls are not round (some are really eggs !) , also seems to be inconsistently bouncing. Really not acceptable , even for training! only suited for recreational play.

i go for 11-3 with Liam winning of course

Yeah lets all play with blue sandpaper and in an arena where u need sunglasses all the time:cool:. Hahaaaa!

One very good topspin forehand tutorial (by the coach of JM Saive when he was the number 1 player on the ITTF ranking) !

Yinhe has lots of different blades , good enough quality imo. But rubberwise i once tried a Yinhe Sun rubber, i found it to be very mediocre, clearly less than modern tensors or tenergy like rubbers. Maybe the Yinhe Big Dipper is ok i guess ...

Lets not forget that the use of speed glue was a very important factor in the success of the Swedes and the Belgians , togehter with the 38 mm celluloid ball it was possible for players to generate massive speed and spin. The Chinese were overpowered by this material combo ! And of course the...

I remember when i gave my opinion on the use of pimples (mostly on long pimples) in our sport, i got attacked by quite some guys on here. I am still 100% convinced that even the players that use them would be better off if they were not used in mainstream competition. I was only talking in favor...

just like Airoc said, 1 to 2 mm is tolerated , and boosting explains this overdimension sometimes , but some players just like it this way some rubbers tend to shrink too , even without ever being boosted, so cutting a bit less makes the rubber reusable if one wants to glue it later on

the shouting is indeed a way of keeping very focused in our extremely fast sport, one of the notorious shouters was Jean-Michel Saive, he CHOed like a mad man in his best years :cool: its not always nice to see for the spectators, just one of the weird aspects of our crazy sport ... there was...

I have to remind Tuppe that i almost always win my matches against pimple players in my league (this season i didnt lose one pimple player , there were about 8 of them up to C2 rating). But i do know that quite some players feel like playing against long pimples is quite annoying, even up to...

Anti doesnt have the spin reversal effect, so it doesnt force the opponent to think differently then when playing against backside rubbers. Also the long frictionless pimples are illegal, but there is no way mostly to control (racket control) this and there are simple ways of making pimples...

Thanks to inverted rubbers with sponge table tennis has evolved to the sport it is today. The less pimples are used the better for the sport it has been. It would be ridiculous to state this kind of material should still be used. Its like saying tennis would look better if only wooden rackets...

Euh, I hope you are joking here, lol.

Yoo Se Hyuk is probably the most spectacular long pimple player in the world. Taking him as a reference to defend the use of long pimples is ridiculous. For example a relatively well rated player like Olivier Mader (see video against Schlager) illustrates more how ugly and weird this kind of...

First change to make is to ban all pimples in official tournaments. They only make the sport weird to watch and to play.
