I’ll get that too, but I find my posts are registered so I don’t try to repost, something is wrong with this board. Maybe it needs braking in…

It’s slower than an average ESN rubber but faster than regular MarkV. I get a little less spin on hard shots but I hit the table almost all the time.,, It last just as long as an ESN rubber. I recommend what you play the best with. When I got my blade from SDC I wanted to start slow and work...

You could try Mark V HPS. It has the same top sheet but a little more modern sponge. I love on my 5 ply all wood blade. The speed decided by the composition and with hard wood an all wood blade can be just as fast without any carbon layers. Cheers L-zr

You guys must have gotten some kind of hickups. hick, hick😗 Cheers L-zr

If you switch to a heavier rubber the balance moves upwards and if you switch to a lighter rubber the balance moves downwards.

The balance does a lot too. It’s very individual. My preference: Middle < balance > high, (by SDC) or a little towards head heavy, 180g < weight > 190g Cheers L-zr

The truth is that each batch is a little different than the previous (also individual rubbers), and the player comes from a worn rubber. So in reality it is the player getting broken in not the rubber. When it comes to tacky rubbers I would imagine that the tackiness may wear off. Cheers L-zr

There is a difference, but not due to rubbers. The Chinese tend to have bigger and longer movement than the Europeans. This requires more physical effort. The best way to grasp this is by looking at some Chinese top players from today and some European top players from a few Years back. Tacky...

It's not, it's all in Your mind. It has to do with getting a bat (blade and rubber combo) that is right for You. Cheers L-zr

Hit them firmly with top spin. Cheers L-zr

Don't need to catch up on anything at all, what You call it is insignificant. One thing I noticed is that today one seem to call almost any stroke with topspin "loop". Most of these strokes I call drives, to me a loop is something else. Maybe this happened with the new ball since spin is less...

What is that if not terminology.

As said before different cultures, different terminology…

Yasaka Rakza 7 could be a good choice. No need to change blade just upgrade the rubber. Then next time do the blade. Cheers L-zr

Yes I saw the second time I’d watched it, Itoh popped up in the ingress. Thanks for posting, all kinds of memories comes back, nostalgia for me. Cheers L-zr

O yes we play exactly that way too, but we (at least I) don’t need an name for it. But we didn’t train it per se. It came natural when “playing wide”. The coach will correct You when your doing something wrong. No need for a particular name, that goes for a lot of modern stuff. No I’ve never...

And it’s the natural way to do it, we use to simply call it “foot work” in the old days.

That’s Ito right? Cheers L-zr

Just as I thought a fancy name for something that comes natural.

The reason why I started to play this game. It was around the time of a game against the Japanese player Ito I like to remember… Cheers L-zr
