  1. Looping bat

    I disagree. "Feeling" is very much a thing as far as I am concerned, and I'd much rather compromise on handle size than blade composition. Also yes, Xiom Offensive S is great - the one thing that I wouldn't change anytime soon. A solid A in every department, albeit perhaps no A+ anywhere. I...
  2. Looping bat

    I see you're selling an Infinity, what did you miss with it? Also, I'm an all-wood type of player but similar to the Rossi Emotion, I tried a TPE Perform once and found it wonderful. I think it did have 05s on it, still a very soft touch and very stable. Outstanding feeling and great handle...
  3. Penholders, I need your advice

    I'll state the obvious, but: - it's a game/sport/hobby, not a job - what comes naturally to me you may be a good indication of what will work for you, the way you'd naturally use your left or right hand - motivation is probably the single biggest factor that will influence your progression...
  4. Viscaria ST & AN

    Bonkers, really.
  5. Upgrading from Primorac to sk7/clipper

    I'm not sure this would make so much of a difference? Also, with regards to the original question, compensating lazy (tired) play with faster equipment may make some sense in theory but close to none in practice, at least in my experience. The exception may be Chinese to tensor rubbers to some...
  6. European Youth Championships 2018

    Thank you!! Lots of unforced errors in this match, Moregard in particular has some work to do mentally. ... Not that I've ever been in a European final! Still a worthy battle, gg Ioannis.
  7. Adjustments in equipment

    I've often wondered how many companies publish their own positive reviews - at least a couple of them - anonymously, which has to be mightily tempting. Other than that yes, of course they pay attention to customer feedback. But they are facing the same issue as everyone else, that is, who's...
  8. European Youth Championships 2018

    Apparently Ionnis Sgouropoulos beat Moregard 4:3 in the final? https://www.ettu.org/en/events/european-youth-championships/draws--amp--results/ I haven't seen the match, though.
  9. European Youth Championships 2018

    I was going to say, have you seen 6:24, but... Yeah. Wow. What a match. Very nice!
  10. Seeking advice for replacing backhand Rasanter R42

    I'm thinking Rakza 7 could be an option, too. It's not slow by any means, but it's very consistent and a blocking machine, especially in 1.8mm. Spin is great, and it is widely available.
  11. Korea Open 2018

    Was that a literal translation?
  12. Ultimate table tennis service return!

    Aye he's using Target Pro rubbers, 51 FH and 47 BH if I recall correctly from the video. But I agree with Talbon that he could probably do it with a frying pan. Dan's face at around the 23s mark is priceless.
  13. Moanin'

    In some other sports it gets pretty extreme, for example I'm a big fan of Adam Ondra but there are times when it gets a bit much: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=V1P97VVt6_k At the same time here is someone who needs all the body tension he can get, and the loud screams only reflect that. I don't...
  14. strange table

    Heck, you're right. I can barely stand the video presentation that's on YouTube but now that's one more reason tout try out this thing. Thanks!
  15. strange table

    Do you have a picture of that??
  16. strange table

    Nice! I'd love a try.
  17. Need to replace my Tibhar Stratus Power wood blde

    Not to be that guy who recommends his own blade, but I find Xiom Offensive S as good as anything can be within this particular range (and blades in general, for my own use and what you've described). Mine is 89 gr but I've asked for one of this weight. Average is less, I think. Head size would...
  18. Mizuno Q3 and Q4

    I'd like to see ESN in comparison, with the kinds of volumes they make I'd expect more automation and mixing up way more material at once than this. At the same time, seeing this video makes rubber prices ever so slightly more palatable.
  19. Dimitrij Ovtcharov takes on incredible robot!

    I'd bet on less than ten years, time will tell!
