I've bought from them many times over the past few years, their service has been rock solid for me save for one time my package got stuck in customs for two months, it was not at behest of the seller.

Joola Tronix ACC, good spin and arc. Very nice to loop with

Vega Euro is a lot softer than G1 and R47, and even softer and much slower than Rozena. I don't know if you'd like that. G1 and Rakza 7 are more similar in hardness to R47, but are older in terms of technology, they prioritize grip first over speed and bounce, R7 being a bit softer and with...

Stiga Pure

This new one looks nearly specifically made to go after the Viscaria tho, peep the handle shape and design. That doesn't look like the typical Master flare style handle to me, Luma fl handle looks wider, like Viscaria

Finally- Stiga Viscaria

Its because against a quality loop, you are harder pressed to hold the table compared to other rubbers. They can't block and hit against topspin like sponge sp can, and they can't chopblock and absorb speed through the bending of the pips like lp.

K2 and GT are definitely very closely related though. I think the differences between them are minor. I've used like 3 sheets of GT and 2 of K2, very reminiscent of the other. Codexx 54, Vega China, RZEH are also on the family tree

The real question is, how much more blade do you actually want? There are many 5 and 7 ply wood blades in-between Korbel and Korbel SK7, like Xiom Offensive S, Nittaku Acoustic, Stiga Pure, Tibhar Szocs

At the time I was using ZJKALC, H3 and D64. And it would not be worth anyones time watching a video of me playing this guy 🤣😭, I am much much less skilled than the videos of opponents that the pips blocker took from that tournament

You're replying to a 10 year old comment- back then, there was no Butterfly Ovtcharov

Another 'ping pong funny' movie, though arguably less un-serious than Balls of Fury

Only SZLC will play like SZLC D64 is a good rubber but its not D09C and will not have a normal ZLC play like SZLC If you really want the SZLC then you have to bite the bullet, you can have your regular JMZLC as your backup

J1 feels slightly harder, and I think it does need a bit more impact than C2, but I think it generates arc a bit better than C2 especially on more active shots

Hardest and also heaviest rubber I've ever tried. I feel like the Nittaku Turbos also lack arc and grip on harder hits compared to DHS, the sponge technology is different, they also don't react to boost as well as with DHS

I've also never used a VKM Offensive but I've heard good things about it for attacking. Last year at the US Open I lost pretty badly to this guy who used Palio CK531A on one to play a blocking style. Heres another one of his videos from that tournament:

Just the regular version, the Offensive, Defensive, Special and ZC versions are all different than the vanilla VKM

I've never received a G1 that has had a regular dome like a properly boosted rubber, they've only had mild reverse dome out of the pack (doming towards the sponge side). Which is to say I don't think they are necessarily boosted, or at least not as much as more modern generation rubbers like...

Yup, thats Haifu Dolphin. Might explain the extra peeling off of the blade edge but this can also happen especially on blades with a very smooth top ply or sealed blades if you are not careful when cutting

You'd know if a glue is waterbased or not depending on its appearance. Waterbased glues are solid white in appearance and often smells of ammonia, VOC based glues are clear or opaque and smell of chemical solvent. VOC glues like Haifu Whale or Haifu Dolphin are not as strong as waterbased glues...
