  1. Help - Rubbers for Xiom Hayabusa ZL Pro

    RZ is indeed pretty sticky. Not as sticky as some old school Chinese rubbers but you hardly see that level of tack anymore. It also doesn't really feel full on 50 degrees because the topsheet is pretty soft but you feel it in terms of hitting in to the sponge and trying to extract speed from the...
  2. Hybrid rubbers with the most balanced properties

    Shorter pimples tend to give a more "Chinese style" feeling. Most prominently noticeable on Hurricane-style rubbers. Usually coupled with a thicker topsheet. You can see it on rubbers like Tronix ZGR, D09C/G09C, etc

    D715 has a bigger handle, from memory. I don't have my Pro01 anymore. The D715 has a pretty large handle
  7. Flared handle sizes: Viscaria vs. FZD ALC vs. TB ALC

    I feel FZD series handle is a bit wider and chunkier than Viscaria/ZJKALC TBALC handle size is the smallest of the 3 but I think this also makes it feel like it is the easiest one to comfortably choke up on, the others feel like the wings are more prominent in the hand imo. FZD felt the largest...

  11. Best Chinese sticky rubbers that don't need boosting

    Turbo Orange and Turbo Blue are both very heavy. I have a sheet of Turbo Blue boosted with 2 layers of seamoon I think it weighs around 57g cut and glued to Yinhe V14 Pro. Turbo Orange cut and glued to Cybershape was like 53g. When boosted I think the DHS sponges play and feel better than the...

    Lind using TBALC with Donic handles makes sense because before the Hexacarbon he was using the Donic True Carbon which is the Donic brands TBALC-alike, a blade originally made for Ovtcharov who was back then using TBALC with Donic handles. I guess history repeats itself. Though I don't think...
  14. Pro Z RSM???

    Looks like an old rubber from the speedglue era, seeing as the FS post is from '06 and is described as similar to Bryce. https://mytabletennis.net/forum/xiom-pro-z-rsm-and-max-leverage_topic8270.html
  15. Medium pips

    In my experience, lp that have stronger reversal tend to have less wobble. I think the wobble comes from knuckle ball effect especially from active strokes, if there is more spin on the ball then lp that have strong reversal will make a cleaner flight path because more spin is passed back, but...
