  1. 2024 WTT Champions Incheon 03.27-03.31 Korea

    Although I would've loved to see Franziska upset FZD, I am kinda happy he lost, same goes for Ovtcharov, Jorgic, Moregard and Qui. This means they are all back in Europe in time for the ETTU Champions League Final4 this Sunday and Monday, would've been a deflated event otherwise.
  2. My experience with Chinese rubbers

    Updated my blades as I received my AliExpress Anniversary haul and needed something to do to get a change of mind last night. On my T11s I now have a black Friendship Bloom Power 45 on FH and a Yinhe Moon 12 blue mid hard on BH. Same BH but 1 tad harder and a revisit to the Bloom Power for me...
  3. Aliexpress Anniversary Sale 2024

    Added two sheets of Sanwei DZ OX in red to it, since I am easily influenced 😂. First item should arrive today already, which would make it exactly 1 week from order to doorstep. Gotta love Choice selection on AliExpress
  4. Aliexpress Anniversary Sale 2024

    Placed my order, removed the Loki Rxton 3 Pro as I found I still had a spare sheet on hand. 3x Friendship Bloom Power 45 black (no sale discount, but Choice selection and discount for buying 3+ pieces) 2x Yinhe Moon 12 Medium hard Yinhe Jupiter 3 37 black Loki VOC glue DHS C8 1.0 red Small...
  5. Aliexpress Anniversary Sale 2024

    Currently have my eyes on: 3x Friendship Bloom Power 45 black (no sale discount, but Choice selection and discount for buying 3+ pieces) 2x Yinhe Moon 12 Medium hard Yinhe Jupiter 3 37 black Loki VOC glue DHS C8 1.0 red Loki Rxton 3 Pro Small rubber scissor
  6. Friendship Bloom Control experiences

    Thanks for the reply, was having similar thoughts. I currently play with a Yinhe Moon 12 medium soft on a very hard blade, which isn't too fast, tbh I might go for the medium hard Moon 12 for a tad more speed.
  7. Friendship Bloom Control experiences

    Hi everyone, I'm eyeing op a new haul of rubbers on AliExpress and decided to give the Bloom Power as FH rubber a try again, in black this time. When browsing around my eyes fell to the Bloom Control rubber as a possible BH option. Only available in 2.0 instead of 2.2 as well as softer...
  8. My experience with Chinese rubbers

    With input like this @Lawsy you are excused of "hijacking" 😇. I did a little swap around last week as I wanted to prep my Yinhe N10s setup for OX LP use and free up my Stuor blade, which meant I would have to move my H3N 39 from it. In the end I moved it to my main blade, still with the Palio...
  9. Stig Cybershape Wood + Tenergy 05?!

    Not tried it, but it doesn't sound like something outlandish you are suggesting. Tenergy 05 as higher arc and probably bit faster, but similar hardness alternative to DNA Platinum M on an offensive 5-ply wood blade. Sounds like its worth a shot.
  10. Palio AK47 appreciation topic

    Gonna play my first session tonight with an AK47 Red on the BH. Teammate loves his AK47 Yellow, which is a bit too mushy for me on my main blade. Only drawback is that the edge chips like it's trying to be a Tenergy rubber.
  11. My experience with Chinese rubbers

    I've been eyeing then Rxton 9 as well @gordonluvsu but was a bit drawn back to pay ~32 euros for a Loki rubber, as you have DHS H3N/H8 for even less. @sky500 I reckon that the Provincials are a step too high for me, seeing I most likely can't reach the ceiling of the commercial variants of the...
  12. My experience with Chinese rubbers

    Thanks for the suggestion @Lawsy! It just happens that I have the Battle 3 in my wishlist so will pick it up in my next round on AliExpress. For Battle 3 the regular version is sufficient or should you also get a blue sponge?
  13. ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals Busan 2024

    Well that seems like it, although I think Gauzy is great, I don't think he is beating Ma Long type of great. Would've loved a Felix vs Fan match, but France need Gauzy to win to get there, which I dont see happening, 3-0 China incoming.
  14. Rxton 5 Pro

    Anyone who got some info on this, I can't seem to find anything yet.
  15. Moon 12 Blue on sale!

    Thanks for the replies guys. Actually eager to try the M+ so I will be returning the H- as I no use for it currently, with several sheets on hand as BH options.
  16. What happened between the USA and KAZ controversial match at the WTTTC Finals 2023?

    If what the USATT says is right I do think its a big fail on the umpires / ITTF Jury Committee. Passing a racket 4 to 5 times and failing it on the 6th is unexplainable. If the rubber is too thick it should fail on the first attempt, that is under the assumption the player couldn't have...
  17. Moon 12 Blue on sale!

    Hey everyone, just received a sheet of Moon 12, which is supposed to be "medium-hard", but I think I got sent the wrong one. My packaging says H- where my earlier medium-soft said M-. Would medium-hard be M+ or H-? Kinda thinking I received a sheet of hard Moon 12 instead of medium-hard...
  18. Now testing: Battle Max, Rxton 3 Pink, Dynaryz ZGX, and Rhyzen ZGX

    The blue and pink sheets I tried also had questionable quality, edges letting lose etc. Not suprised something like a bubble would be forming.
  19. Recommend me a super slow control oriented setup , for someone who basically just puts everything back ?

    A teammate of mine plays a similar style from what I can read, a game around spin, placement and keeping the ball in play until a chance to finish opens up. He recently switched to a Donic ALL blade with carbon, with Tackiness D 2.0 on FH, Tackiness C 2.0 on BH. He wemt with 2.0 to have a bit...
  20. H3 not so tacky?

    I have recently glued two DHS sheets, bought at a local supplier at a regional tournament, H3N 39 and H8 39, both commercial orange sponge versions in black, both unboosted. H3N is very highly grippy, but not tacky, a rubber protective sheet doesn't stick to it. Only asterix to that is that I...
