  1. Help deciding on parts for a new bat

    Have you tried chinese rubbers? They are great in doing what you do: they are very spinny, so easy to do sidespin shots and they lack catapult, easy to chop with them. For chopping something soft and slow might be good, like the Butterfly Tackiness or Tackifire series, but these are slower than...
  2. Cheap plastic balls for multi ball training

    Why? What's the problem?
  3. Simon Gauzy and Hugo Calderano Blade Review coming soon!

    Could you ask them who was their best doubles partner they played with and if they will play doubles together?
  4. Paul Drinkhall (WR 41) on T2 APAC, Equipment and more!

    Great! If you meet anyone else from team Rossi or just T2, ask them about the young chinese players!
  5. Evolution el-s or el-p

    + point for Tibhar that now I can loop wide pushes Ren Hao style :D
  6. Evolution el-s or el-p

    The EL-S is slower than MX-P, but if you hove a fast swing it's just as lethal and much more controllable. It requires more effort to play fast loops, but it has a plenty of spin. If you play with Hurricane, you should go for EL-S rather than EL-P. On the backhand it's extremely controllable...
  7. Building The Hammer

    Just noticed the thread. It's a great idea to name our blades/setups. :) Still thinking what would fit mine :p ?? I sandpaper-ed it enough to call it unique.
  8. Are styles conforming and hurting the sport?

    That lights up a new point. I would never mention Mizutani, Boll, Ma Long and XX together. For me, they have completely different styles. I know that you're aware of their differences, just for me they are different enough to call them different styles. Which makes me sad is the lack of...
  9. Advantages of 1.8mm

    MX-P isn't super soft :) Or do you use it on the RPB side?
  10. Advantages of 1.8mm

    IMO, 1.8 is way worse than 2.0 or max. If you want more control and less speed, choose another rubber, or go for even thinner sponge. Why I say that? I played with various rubbers in various thickness and experience says: 1.8 is definitely slower than 2.0 or max, but there is a significant...
  11. Critique Me

    Almost everything is told. Try to relax your body. The floor seems very slippery, I don't even know how it can be used for sporting. To get a good timing I would recommend you to watch Emrath's 'In Pai' video.
  12. Advantages of 1.8mm

    Usually there is 2.0 between 1.8 and max. Just sayin'.
  13. Who has the world's best backhand?

    He likes messing with equipment. He used Killerspin Diamond, custom blades, some allwood blade, now Carbonado... This story takes place around the time the first plastic balls appeared.
  14. Who has the world's best backhand?

    Guys in the hungarian blade manufacture said that Karakasevic asked them to make a custom blade with x composite lyer (I remember 6 or more). They said that they can't use so much composite, because they would exceed the max. amount of non-natural materials. He said 'I don't care'. :D After that...
  15. Boosting H3 NEO National

    2.15 Hurricane doesn't go over 4mm after boosting? I never measured it and now I use EL-S on FH (not for long, I will go back to H3...again).
  16. Austrian Open 2017

    Our hero :)
  17. Boosting with baby oil

    Probably 'bad design' aka. cheap material made thin.
  18. Are styles conforming and hurting the sport?

    The biggest potential is in TV for table tennis. Few people will travel without understanding TT. But when people just run across the TV channels to find something interesting, they might stop and watch a little TT. It's just comfortable. I don't have a TV myself, but when I sit before one and...
  19. Boosting H3 NEO National

    The normal should be lower viscosity than the medium, because they are in that order on the bottle. It's strange for me too...
  20. Boosting H3 NEO National

    I meant pressing after glueing. I have a theory: you let the glue dry properly, but the dried layer gets humid and it weakens. After drying the water doesn't mix with the glue. So after you have a dried layer apply one more thin layer of glue and attach the sheet immediately, and press it...
