  1. A better forum via better moderation

    It is necessary that he is doing what he is doing... At the same time when I read "slowly becoming world citizens", I think that feels like very strong "inferiority complex" to me... You don't need to become anything, much less "world citizen", and even more much less "slowly" LOL... You...
  2. A better forum via better moderation

    I agree, but/and it's not at all in a contradiction with my wish... I may have took your side, but after a while, it doesn't matter, the sides doesn't matter... There are no sides... These are the thing I long for you to express in a way of your culture... Things like say in Indian culture the...
  3. A better forum via better moderation

    I think you should come back... I would also like Tony to come back... But I don't think moderators are not making peace, actually in contrary, I think they actively try to make peace... Some things were in the past, it's possible some of them were not optimal (they are human), were put to...

    Happy for Dima... @zeio what do you think is more appropriate? getting on knees or putting sand on the head ;-)
  5. A better forum via better moderation

    I took it so that he was joking, also in his 2nd post where he suggested that "hey, how is your H8-80" can be promoted to TTD proverb... Or at least so I understood it...

    We had, and also now have, good mods.
  7. Post your latest EJ purchase

    New blade from Sergio, with the "same composition" as the first one, but only on paper! So the composition is still limba, ayous, A-C carbon, ayous core, but it is significantly different blade. The first one had extremely dense core, and this one has 23% less dense core, and it has 12% more...

    I guess you're right... Sorry for accidentally opening this, LOL... I forgot, there is no spoon... There is no Tony ;-)
  9. 3 New Andro Rubbers

    I only had a couple of hits with N50 black... What I wanted to say is just that for my BH I don't need harder sponge than what is on N48... The G1 - I don't like, excellent rubber but not for me. Max. Always max on FH ;-) My issue is not with the sponge though... Anyway, it's just my feeling...
  10. WTT Champions Yokohama 2026, Yokohama, 8/4-9

    He was up 7:1, what a pitty he didn't win that game... But Sora is nice to watch, I remember once I said Shinozuka is nice to watch, and *Tony*, who is no more with us, said right away, they have a new one, a leftie - he meant Sora, and I at that time didn't even know he existed... And Tony...
  11. 3 New Andro Rubbers

    So, this is my 2nd day playing with the Chintac 57S. Actually the setup is new, and there are much more important things than the Chintac ;-) Anyway, let's try to be factual for a moment. The rubber is nicely tacky, can lift the ball for a second, cut weight for 158x150 blade is approx. 51g...
  12. What is hardest sponge Chinese's rubber.

    ;) It is hard but doesn't feel super hard... As @belllfador said, perhaps the TG3 is harder... and I can't tell because I didn't try it... Regarding trying/masochism... I said to myself, I have enough of H3, R9, these things are slow, and worse after 2 months you need to reboost and reglue...
  13. What is hardest sponge Chinese's rubber.

    NH3PTB perhaps is not the hardest, but at least the heaviest ;-)

  16. What happened to Joola Tronix rubbers?

    +1 for ACC, friend who used to be nr. 60 in CR using it... On the other hand I gotta say, the better the players I play with, the more they don't give a ... and I look like EJ when speaking about rubbers...
  17. What happened to Joola Tronix rubbers?

    Short update about the Tronix ZGR, as I said the hardness is right, it doesn't bottom out. There is this speed/spin tradeoff, it is faster than H3 or Rxton9, and the spin (or perhaps spin to speed ratio) is less. With H3, R9 the ball may tend to drop sooner due to more rotation, and because it...
  18. Form is simply a means of consistency (a physics based approach)

    I see the contact point part of the hit more like "the cherry on top". Instead of focusing on the contact point I try to focus on everything else ;-) Like a shift of perspective... It is true we can make ugly shots and they will land, sometimes, but on average I think it is safe to say that the...
  19. Form is simply a means of consistency (a physics based approach)

    What you do is perfectly valid and necessary. You're essentially asking "why it works"... The problem, imo, is not with the question, it is that we expect a single correct answer to this question... But there is no single answer, there is more like deep going regress of "why"... You explain why...
  20. What happened to Joola Tronix rubbers?

    FWIW... Last 2 seasons I mostly played with H3 BS prov. and Rxton 9 on the FH... When the last season ended, I wanted to kill the remaining rubbers, so after a while I glued the STN (Sanwei Targer National H40 or H41), boosted with 2 layers. I played with it couple of times, but then I had to...
