  1. Help my boredom—— QnA thread

    If Sergey Tsos were involved, the circumstances would happen to be so, that you'd be speaking about posts nr. 22 and 80 now!
  2. Be honest guys: you don't need carbon blades

    LOL, I confess to this mental sin too. The only problem is, that the joy is neutralized the next instant, when my sick mind tells me, he'd almost certainly not do this mistake, if I were on the other side of the table...
  3. Be honest guys: you don't need carbon blades

    Absolutely agree with the 2nd part. I wanted to say that most important thing with regard to the blade, is whether you like it or not. But you preceded me. Or in another words: the most important thing with regard to the setup is footwork. But the thread - I enjoyed it. After a while I'd say a...
  4. Be honest guys: you don't need carbon blades

    Hi superbackhand, welcome to the forum. Your post is short, but imo, it's true. Equipment matters to some degree, and in the universe within this degree, we can discuss with increasing finesse (and great joy) about what and when is appropriate. And then you come and tell us that our universe is...
  5. Frustrated & Confused

    Yes. And worse, it never stops. You learn to receive serves at some level, in next level you look like an idiot again. You master/handle those, play with guys on next level, same story... Just like me today :-) So, 100% to don't worry. You've made good progress, you need to take the FH a little...
  6. Breaking the rules of proper TT technique

    His strokes are relaxed and powerful. I'd say he is only breaking traditions, not rules ;-)
  7. Blade recommendation for off- to low off carbon blades in penhold

    You're right. The XVT ZL Koto has koto outer, and the outer ply, when looked from the bottom of the handle, looks like the medial ply, when looked from the side of the handle, and it looks different than the ayous on the medial ply on Viscaria, Yinhe V16 and Vodak Horejsi ALC. So it is very...
  8. Blade recommendation for off- to low off carbon blades in penhold

    Don't worry about the medial ply, it is likely ayous. You'll be able to see that with magnifier glass. That you bought the blade is a mistake nevertheless :-), I bet it will feel too hard and stiff even with ayous. Like the XVT ZL Koto I have - it's relatively hard and stiff, produces this...
  9. Blade recommendation for off- to low off carbon blades in penhold

    I don't have Butterfly Innerforce, or Ovtcharov, or Harimoto, so can't check. But I am convinced it is. What do we bet??? See ttgearlab here and here.
  10. Blade recommendation for off- to low off carbon blades in penhold

    Michael, check this. Let's keep it dry :-) 1 last time.
  11. Blade recommendation for off- to low off carbon blades in penhold

    Before you posted this, I took the magnifier glass and checked my Viscaria and the medial ply really looks like ayous, both according your previous description in another thread, and also when compared with the medial ayous ply in my Vodak Horejsi ALC. I didn't feel entitled to post it. So am...
  12. What is light weight Chinese's rubber.

    AK47 blue - non-tacky H3Neo H37 - tacky And I'm sure others can point out many many others...
  13. Some video sharing

    Revenge :-)
  14. Help my boredom—— QnA thread

    Help me understand how is the mood over there during the lockdown. Like how many people feel so and so. And also, if you dare, how it develops over the last month... Cheers.
  15. Changing from european forehand to chinese issues!

    Hi, check this video from TT Nuri, or the first couple of minutes. What do you think about it? Edit: And this one. Although I admit, posting because of the music :-) It's relaxing.
  16. Dhs h8-80

    H8-80 reacted a bit more to boosting than H3Neo H37, but not dramatically more. So harder H3, like e.g. H41, reacts more to boosting than H8-80. Note that H8-80 is a bit heavier, 72g uncut vs 63g for H3Neo H37.
  17. What table tennis rubbers & blade do you use?

    You need to put Mr. Tsos before couple of such "dilemmas". Of course if you come over here, I'll not waste your balls on Vodka and put you before such Slivovica dilemma, that we will get several articles about H3 posted to TTD in one night!
  18. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Interesting. For myself, I am skeptical, because I like non-porous sponges on FH. But I'd really like to know how you estimate the hardness. H38? H39? H40?... Btw. in some other thread you mentioned some recent H3 prov. bubbled and I replied, I had no problem with bubbles but with the...
