  1. Does more arc on fh topspin equal more spin.

    Also consider adding to that list one wing stroke switching. Switch between types of stroke on a single wing. For example you can tell your friend to feed you a ball and at the same time tell you how to contact the ball. You can mix in some enderspins. If you already mastered that you can add...

  3. What is the tackiest hard-sponge rubber?

    Yinhe Jupiter 2 is produced in this technology, I managed to wear parts of the top sticky layer. Also I would like to add that said rubber after re-stretching (after factory glue wore off and I did the baby oil treatment) that rubber held ball longer than I bothered to test, no matter the blade...
  4. Does more arc on fh topspin equal more spin.

    I would like to elaborate more on sources I provided in post #3. I think that spin is influenced majorly by two factors: - acceleration - time to accelerate the ball First one is pretty obvious. But the second one seems to be a bit more complex because there are at least two major factors...
  5. Dignic09c alternative

    What hardness of H3 you use on FH? How do you like it on your BH? Have you tried twidling the bat around to get feel how H3? Have tried D09c or did you just read marketing crap and watch a lot of youtube videos about it? If you really really really really want to start using tacky backhand...
  6. Does more arc on fh topspin equal more spin.

    https://ttgearlab.com/2017/02/06/performance-indices-the-way-to-evaluatie-blade-by-measurement/ Here is formula how to calculate curve length: https://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/classes/calcii/arclength.aspx Figure out which arc has lower length (spoiler low arc). With same speed, high arc ball...
  7. Carbon Blades Adaption

    Local league player, training with province cadets. (kids 13-16 y/o who train six 6y/o) I will post footage whenever Joola robot arrives. Training with them boosted my level. Those kids are really strong and improving fast. I sometimes beat one or two of them, but since they now train 3x a day I...
  8. Carbon Blades Adaption

    Our current Polish Cup winner Jakub Dyjas, in his last interview, said that he won't play with carbon, and he uses Clipper clone. (he won silver in juniors doubles 2016 Budapest) So I believe that even on the top level you don't need a carbon blade. It's mostly the skill that matters.
  9. Carbon Blades Adaption

    Dear MOG, in my career I've used blades that were like extension of my hand immediately and also used some blades that needed some adjustment. Some are easy some are hard. What was common is that in all of the cases I needed more than 10 hours to fully adjust (some times more). Based on that...
  10. How do you deal/adjust to very humid conditions?

    Playing in humid conditions is like living in a primordial jungle, you either adapt or die.
  11. Blade for fh looping and short pips bh

    I don't want to be rude, but I think I've read that here a couple of dozen of times here.
  12. new Tacky rubber unboosted

    Then give Xiom Vega China might be a good candidate. Just remember to give yourself an adjustment period if you haven't played with any rubber of this kind yet. It might be annoying at first. Any of those rubbers is garbage if you are not proficient in brushing. From what I read, Rakza Z might...
  13. new Tacky rubber unboosted

    Then instead of reboosting after 3 months buy new sheet. There is no such thing as Chinese hard tacky rubber whose factory boosting lasts forever. You either: - content with hardness and feel of unboosted tacky rubber - boost a tacky rubber - buy factory boosted tacky rubber, which will last...
  14. new Tacky rubber unboosted

    It's not that hard. Initially its rather easy after 2-3 months I would suggest reboosting it.
  15. new Tacky rubber unboosted

    Vega Asia isn't tacky I think. Vega China is.
  16. The hard rubbers, a new trend in tennis table?

    Agreed, different styles, different needs, different approaches. I don't agree with this statement. I see a lot of variance in terms of the playability of the balls. I can play any of those I tried without much grievance, but I can't agree that they are all the same.
  17. new Tacky rubber unboosted

    I have Battle 2 prov on my fh currently. It really wants to be boosted. If you don't bother go for Xiom Vega China.
  18. Rubber quality

    Don't get your mind too much boggled with that. I've use rubbers with sponge in thicknesses between 1.9 and 2.3. Ask your coach. I hadn't had issues with adapting to sponges in that range, and if you are coached you should be just fine. Understanding sponge thickness is hard. The thicker the...
  19. Rubber quality

    Since you are training with a trainer, ask him. Don't listen to fellow EJs. If something feels good to you no reason to change.
  20. MOG's D09c Thread: Now Closed

    Does those stains remain after cleaning?
