  1. Nittaku Hurricane 3 National blue sponge

    Hard to tell without a microscope. But from the images, they look rather close.

    Thought it was April Fool but no. https://www.ittf.com/2021/04/01/petra-sorling-nominated-ittf-president-candidacy/ https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1106193/sorling-stands-for-ittf-presidency

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... The archive is gone.
  4. Nittaku Hurricane 3 National blue sponge

    For Japan, the JTTA used to require the JTTAA stamp for rubbers. That's the reason behind the Nittaku Hurricane 2/3 and Nittaku Hurricane Pro 2/3. The requirement had been removed when Hurricane Pro 3 Turbo Orange/Turbo Blue were released, but it's become some sort of a tradition since Nittaku...
  5. Nittaku Hurricane 3 National blue sponge

    I wrote about it a month ago. There is a growing market in Japan and South Korea. Not long ago, DHS couldn't even produce enough for the domestic market. Anyway. The white package BS H3 comes with a 42.5° sponge. BTW, Turbo Orange and Turbo Blue have Japanese sponge instead.

  8. ITTF: Let the Witch-Hunt for Boosters Begin

    Been waiting for this day to post it. Yet, it's no April Fools. The no-booster camp at ITTF is still looking for a way to weed out every last one of them. Note the name Claudia Herweg. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aca.2021.338227 Detection of illegal treatment of table tennis rackets using gas...
  9. PandaPong TENERGY 19 Review (15 mins)

    I stopped reading after "Control requires feedback. Equipment has none." I can't believe it came out of the mouth of an engineer, who actually demands people run an experiment, which is an open-loop control system, over a human review, which is a closed-loop control system. 🤮 For those...
  10. Dima's forehand(?) push

    Never got an answer from the man himself, but Schlager has argued on about.com that Dima doesn't do it because he hasn't developed it. https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/showthread.php?3462-Ask-Dimitrij-Ovtcharov!&p=41954&viewfull=1#post41954...

  13. How Dima Ovtcharov Solved The Lin Yun-Ju Problem

    Another factor is the Ovtcharov's form. He was in a fantastic form as pointed out by Rosskopf after winning the Contender. The problem is the Star Contender. The glaring hole in his game is exploited to death by Kallberg...

  20. PandaPong TENERGY 19 Review (15 mins)

    Is that a joke? That's exactly what a review is, a comment about something. What you describe is a *bleep* experiment. No *bleep* human plays like that. Get that *bleep* engineer's perspective out of your head, man. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Review#User_review
