  1. Using Chinese rubbers for the first time

    I see you are using Shining Dragon. This might be the case with that rubber, but the Skyline (TG) and Hurricane series are well known for their durability. Even if you're a pro player you wouldn't have to change the rubber that fast normally, but if you're a pro player you probably boost...
  2. Using Chinese rubbers for the first time

    Then you wrote wrong in the description (no problem), because 804 is an anti. Probably you confused it with the 802, which is a short pip rubber.
  3. Sanwei Fextra and Dynamo Blades!

    Sanwei is well known for it's high quality clones. Seems their self designed blades are good too, especially in this price range!
  4. Using Chinese rubbers for the first time

    Hi, try Hurricane 3 Neo commercial. It's the most popular chinese rubber for a reason. No need to buy these 'provincial' and 'national' versions first time. If your playing level is high enough, you might want to buy provincial version and boost, but now you really don't need it. Also, H3 has a...
  5. Using Chinese rubbers for the first time

    Obviously he uses the anti on his BH. He said he want chinese rubber on his forehand.
  6. BH Rubber Gold Arc 5 VS Evo EL-S ?

    I can't say anything about the GA5, but EL-S isn't that fast, though probably faster than Tinarc5 Soft.
  7. Where is Liu Guoliang now?

    I believe this is a recent photo. If not, please correct me!
  8. Where is Liu Guoliang now?

    I though Ma Lin is still CNT coach. Or provincial coach. LGL got some meaningless official position, guess he will do it for a few years then retires. Maybe if China will be beaten in World Champs and Olympic Games he might return to coaching (yeah, there is a serious chance that someone beats...
  9. New DHS 40+ Ball - TTNPP (Is it fake or is it real?)

    My club decided to use them as training balls. I haven't checked the seam thickness, but they feel quite light compared to Joola Flash. They play pretty good, easy to land the shots, nearly if they were celluloids (easier to generate arc than with the Flash). I practice serves with celluloid...
  10. Five Arylate Carbon Blades - Which one would you choose and why?

    What are the differences between Fang Bo 2 and Boll/ZJK/Viscaria ALC blades? Speed, hardness, vibrations, 'kick'...
  11. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Thanks, now I knowwhat did you mean. By the way, badminton shoes said to have more grip than TT and tennis shoes.
  12. Backhand - Best Chinese Rubber (non tensor)

    I suggested TG 3-60 because 1: it's soft 2: it has a little more speed AND catapult than Hurricane 3-50. Chinese style rubbers are great in backhand flicking and BH looping but they are not so good in BH driving. Hurricane 37 degree boosted might be good as well (actually great), but it's a mess...
  13. Backhand - Best Chinese Rubber (non tensor)

    Instead of H3-50, try Skyline 3-60.
  14. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Tennis shoes designed for working? Probably language barrier, but I don't get it.

    You mean badminton shoes?
  16. New Tenergy Rubbers! Tenergy 05N and Tenergy 09C

    OK, it might be an old idea, but now it's the time that brands make good rubbers using this concept. I've heard about these old 2.6 mm sponged rubbers and basically no one ended up using it. Now the Rasanter is a high quality and successful series, just like the Bluestorm (well, Bluestorm isn't...
  17. New Tenergy Rubbers! Tenergy 05N and Tenergy 09C

    I smell that Dignics will be their newest generation series (thin topsheet, thick sponge). Lagnus sounds like something slow (this doesn't have any rational basis) and Spryer sounds like an analogue to Bryce.
  18. T2 Asia Pacific Table Tennis League 2017!

    Well done, Paul!
  19. Drive looping back spin balls.

    An important point what many players (me as well) miss during the execution of this shot: Be aware where you contact the ball! I see many players hitting the ball at it's middle. It's wrong! It will result in a fast but only slightly spinny ball, which is pretty easy to block. Other players want...
