In his video on the misconceptions of tacky rubber, Gucchy, a user of tacky rubber, and his sidekick Chaparrita, explain how many people equate tackiness with spin but tacky rubber doesn't necessarily spin more than tensioned rubber when you don't swing hard, and that the strength of tacky...

Points 3/4 and 8/9 are what set tacky rubber apart from grippy rubber. German grippy rubber used to fare much worse in spin and firmness against Japanese grippy rubber before Baracuda/Hexer/Genius, ESN's imitation of Tenergy porous sponge, were released in 2009. The lack of firmness(weak...

Liu Weishan cursed in Chinese by accident at 9:6 in G5 in the women's singles final. LOL! Ni Xia Lian: 🤣

Glad you find my posts helpful. The difference is significant. Grippy topsheet 1 μ=1.25, ~89.5rps Tacky topsheet 1 μ=1.75(+33.3%), ~80.2rps(-11%) Tacky topsheet 2 μ=2.05(+48.5%), ~82.2rps(-8.5%)

Another thing Stiga could've done better is release the FRF of Cybershape and a typical blade instead of saying "more linear frequency response".

Don't worry about it. It was a joke on Stiga's marketing. They could've been more cautious when stating the Cybershape was "5% larger than a classic blade". Butterfly would've stated "5% larger than our classic blades(ABC series/models)." Either way, people will always pit one brand against...

Stiga: Cybershape has a 5% larger blade head! Hipnotic: Hold my standard shape.

CTTA should take over the WTT.

Tsk, tsk...😒 It feels odd and gets old to have the omniscient engineer tell yours truly who has posted countless papers on table tennis topics over the years to keep reading the same document. Let's try something new. Here is the fact. When it comes to the spin capacity of rubber, regardless...

Ni Xia Lian: You're too young, granddaughter. I won the WTTC XD in 1983 when your mom was a daughter. https://imgur.com/KpN9Jzl https://imgur.com/Ew1j2zQ https://imgur.com/cbAIWcd I wonder how DHK would've done against Ni Xia Lian.

I'm returning the Cybershape.😛

Various players: What a funny-looking blade you have there. Moregard: Yes, it'll be your "coffin". On a side note, what's up with Pucar? He's been playing below par for a good while. https://youtu.be/3OrNdutcl34?list=PLIl_mJ3zK7B9hT3BE_bvPHen1xEV8cZGs&t=4076

What piques my interest most is the list price of Q Quality. It is more competitive than Q3/Q4/Q5 at that price point.

Shindong(turned 17 in July) is frankly not that much better than Kim Nayeong(turned 16 in October) but they are the future of the KNT. Going by the examples of Hirano, Ito and Hayata, Shindong and Kim Nayeong should start beating their seonbae regularly. Currently, they don't hit as hard as...

Scenario 1. Grippy rubber is better for returning spin. Scenario 2. Tacky rubber is better for generating spin once the force gets past a certain threshold. Put another way, tacky rubber has higher spin potential. If a player does not hit hard enough, tacky rubber will spin less than grippy...

The official reason given by ML, XX and LSW is that they've requested to opt out of the WTTC for personal/family reasons and the CNT humor their requests. ML, XX and LSW stress in their Weibo posts that doesn't mean they are not retiring. QZJ said the team is ready for the young players to "pay...
