  1. How to give crazy topspin?

    Why do you want a crazy topspin?
  2. Double Fish samples has arrived - what is your opinions?

    How is it compared to Viscaria and Dynasty Xuxin?
  3. Liang Jingkun signs with LOKI

    He really needs to change the rubber from H3 BS to R9. That way he shows everyone that LOKI can compete with top products. Don't be like Ahn Jaehyun.
  4. move from TimoBoll ALC to innerfoce blade

    It can be. Even an unboosted H3 won't help you with the short game if you lack the touch and skill for it. My brother plays with TB ALC paired with D05 and T05fx, and his short game is just as good as, if not better, than mine who uses Yinhe Max 02 with VP on both sides. If you think he's a...
  5. Liang Jingkun signs with LOKI

    LJK should now use R9 on is forehand and Telson on the backhand. That will boost LOKI's products for sure.
  6. WTT Champions Chongqing 2025 - 11-16 Mar 2025

    Speaking of which, I saw that Miwa's FH rubber has purple sponge. Is it the new rubber from BTY?
  7. move from TimoBoll ALC to innerfoce blade

    Keep the TB ALC and T05fx. Short game is all about touch and skill, and changing your equipment, either rubber or blade, is compensating for your lack of touch and skill. The trade off is also not worth it, you might be able to play short against players of your level or lower, but not those who...
  8. Some questions about Edge tape, Gluing, impacts on gameplay

    1. I don't use side tape coz my blade and my rubbers are cheap. Using edge tape also change the sound that I make when the edge hit the table. 2. I put 3 layers of glue on the rubber and 1 on the blade. 3. How long do I wait? Around 15 minutes for each glue. I play immediately after gluing it.
  9. Boosting

    If you want a workout, don't boost it. If you want it to be livelier then put two layers. Be a bit generous with it for the first time as a baseline for your future boosting.
  10. Zhang Jike signs with Donic

    So combining A series topsheet and C series sponge took Zhang Jike hours to research. Man, the rubbers are gonna be so pricy, it's filled with ZJK's love, sweat, and tears from working countless hours. Prof. Jike.
  11. Table tennis culture in non-dominant Asian countries? (NOT China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan)

    Yep, we have many of these events every year. Almost every year institutions here celebrate birthday or anniversary or some other occasion. Sometimes they would invite foreign players, but mostly they only accept Indo players. The thing is, the closer it is to election campaign, the more...
  12. Have You Used an Asymmetric Blade Like the SANWEI Two Face? Share Your Experience!

    Well, I've had experience with Yinhe Pro 11S. I have got to say that the difference between Spruce with Inner PLC and Koto with Outer ALC is noticeable for me. It could also because of the rubbers on each surface.
  13. What is the best table tennis ball for matches?

    DHS DJ40+ WTT is good. DF Par 40+ is also good. I think DF is better because it's more consistent than DHS one. Joola is also okay. I don't like Stiga Perform and Donic.
  14. Table tennis culture in non-dominant Asian countries? (NOT China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan)

    Most of the tournaments here are small-scale competitions with prizes ranging from around 70 to 130 US dollars. The tournaments are usually in the form of individual matches or teams sending individual representatives to compete. Meanwhile, matches involving full teams, such as men's teams, are...
  15. Table tennis culture in non-dominant Asian countries? (NOT China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan)

    Table tennis is big in Indonesia. How big? Lots of tournaments every week. The money is also okay. A regional game gold medal winner can get you up to $3-5k. It might be small to you guys but you need to remember the minimum wage here is like $300 a month. It's worth 10-12 month of work...
  16. DONIC New Zhang Jike blade

    This is better than the previous one. At least, I won't be embarrassed when I take off the rubbers in front of everyone.
  17. DHS Hurricane King acB Review

    Vega Europe, Barracuda Big Slam, Rakza Z. Well, softer rubber is better if you want to have fun. If you feel like working out, 729 super fx or hard chinese rubber unboosted. Feel the workout.
  18. Nagasaki: "I've never liked table tennis that much to begin with..." (#1169)

    Zhang Jike has never been humble in any interview he's given. The only player he's ever praised as comparable to himself is Ma Long. Fang Bo might not show humility in his coaching videos, but would he ever claim to be better than Ma Long or Zhang Jike? Would he confidently say in an interview...
  19. Nagasaki: "I've never liked table tennis that much to begin with..." (#1169)

    This is what is missing from TT players, they are all too humble. Every single one of the UFC fighters has this believe that they won't lose to anyone, even the lower ranked guys pretty much believe they can defeat the champ. I suppose that humbleness is one of Asian's qualities, but that sort...
  20. Did Lin Gaoyuan get sponsored by a new brand? His backhand rubber has purple sponge

    How about double fish? Pretty sure they used his face to promote Dragon Blade ZLC. It could be a custom made Volant Phoenix or Volant Phoenix National.
