  1. Short review of Glayzer 09c

    Just try it first. Who knows, maybe you'll swear by it after you give it time.
  2. Short review of Glayzer 09c

    Battle 2 is like a classic chinese rubber - hard and sticky. Modern hybrid is called hybrid for a reason; it is never meant to be comparable to classic chinese rubber. Even H3 is no longer that tacky.
  3. Short review of Glayzer 09c

    It's normal. Don't expect the stickiness of old H3 from D09C or G09C. Recent H3 is nowhere as tacky as older ver H3.
  4. Zhang Jike: "Those who rely primarily on a Backhand system, can not reach the top"

    I thought he said top 5. I figured he was making fun of them all coz they have strong backhand.
  5. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Had a tournament yesterday. Decided to have fun and bomb everything. By the time I reached the semis, I felt I still had some juice left in the tank and figured I'd try to end it early by bombing it all again. I led the game 2-0, but then I completely ran out of steam, lol. My legs were shaking...
  6. Zhang Jike: "Those who rely primarily on a Backhand system, can not reach the top"

    I think he needs to work more on his strategy and mentality. Guy is as perfect as one can get as a player. Superb footwork, lethal forehand, slightly less lethal backhand, great rallying (you don't best ML without great rallying skill), and dodgy serves.

    Kidmoto was not a hard hitter. There, I repeat it. Even his coach literally said his FH was weak as heck. He was borrowing force much like ML. Unlike Hugo and ZJK. I can agree he hit loose ball hard but hard hitter like Hugo he wasn't. I'll just agree to disagree with you. Is this not you? I'm...

    "ma long always had problems against hard hitters. ZJK beat him because he hit too hard, harimoto did the same, lee sang su , fan zhendong etc etc " That is what you said. Kidmoto hit as hard as a physical specimen like prime ZJK and FZD is just no. I don't really care about the other points...
  9. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    You could have said you agreed I could get a ball past ML at least once. lol
  10. Any blades still in production similar to Xiom Hugo HAL or Butterfly Moonbeam?

    Thanks, man. So, it's quite similar to Telson Speed. Good to know.
  11. Any blades still in production similar to Xiom Hugo HAL or Butterfly Moonbeam?

    Does anybody know if CNF is similar to Arylate when it comes to playing property? There's a good deal for Rxton 9 Pro blade, Basalt CNF, here.
  12. XIOM C55 Impressions and Comparison with H3N

    Man, I've got to learn from you how to take care of my rubber. 3 weeks in, and my DFVP black already bubbled at the worst spot, the upper middle.
  13. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    If it's something ML couldn't handle, that'd be something even stronger than prime ZJK, FZD, and WLQ. How do you explain that?
  14. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    It was shaky in the sense it was not as dominant as the win he had before and after. I know it's harsh of me but him being down 3-1 before his second wind is why I called it a shaky win. A win is a win, but I'd still pick WCQ over Hugo given the showing. I'd pick Hugo over LSD and Harimoto now...
  15. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    It's very likely this. As much as I would love to glaze Hugo, his win against WCQ was pretty shaky.
  16. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    You are saying Kid Harimoto hit the ball as hard as FZD and prime ZJK? I have seen it all now.. ZJK and ML were pretty much neck to neck in every encounter except for Rio. Even then it was an even game for most of the match.
  17. Any blades still in production similar to Xiom Hugo HAL or Butterfly Moonbeam?

    It was discontinued a year or so before his WC success. Still, it's kinda moronic that they discontinued the very blade used by the only face of the company? That said, Rxton 9 on Moonbeam FL is superb. Why did I switch blades when Moonbeam feels better than Pro 05 and Teslon Speed?
  18. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    He doesn't really need to be hot week in and week out. He could be the usual him for WTT tour and find his mojo in the events that actually matters, e.g. Olympic, WTTC, WTT Finals, etc. just like ZJK.
  19. Player retirement thread (not only for Japanese players)

    Lin Shidong. Twice has he gone missing in the final that actually matters. WCQ has improved so he doesn't have to retire.
