Sport is supposed to be something you do for fun. Very few can make a living of it. It should be on the terms of the performer. Of course in completions there must be rules to adhere to, but there is way too much focus on profit…

I use the same rubber, I have no problem getting spin with such a shot but to get good speed you need to swing really hard. Blue sponge is probably better with that.
So the short answer is swing harder.

I don’t know… Short pips are usually super fast. Gotta use a slow blade then…
Maybe a blocking style… I am definitely not fast enough to counter close in such a speedy game… But for the few who can handle it…

Very true. If you can afford to change every week it’s no issue but if only can change once a year it’s advantage it’s long gone… Maybe China will loose customers (amateurs) to ESN if the performance is closing in. The cost is for sure slowly becoming equal…

Money isn’t everything, The customers will have to wait as long as it takes. I would work in my own tempo. Much much slower than you. There has to be time to live too…

Great info, thanks a lot.
You have just confirmed what many players express.
Some players don’t like it but I do…
So we can say then is that Chinese and Euro/Jap rubbers are closing in on each other. The norm then would end up with something like a hybrid.
Super post Andrea, you are a gold...
Well, both. The brushing is the easy part. The hard part is to put enough power into your strokes at full contact. But your game close to the table will become better that’s a fact. At position 3 not so much. So if you like to play far away maybe it’s not right for you.

Tenergy rewards full sponge contact while H3 rewards brushing. It’s harder to do a full contact loop drive with H3, maybe this is your problem. Stick with it eventually you’ll get it.

I don’t think it will completely go away. But it’s a shame so few players are choppers, it’s actually more fun to watch a chopper against a looper…

Please do. I only tried one sheet of Target national and it had much less tackiness than expected… The last really tacky rubber I had was a year ago. A 729 bloom power, but the next batch was less tacky. So to me it looks the same across the line… all manufacturers.

Yes they and they do. Everything you put your efforts into you will eventually succeed if you have the numbers and resource. China is taking over the world economy…

The dominance is good for the dominating country and bad for all others…
And if one looks at the number of players in China those’re will always be domination, anything else is a fluke…
