  1. Help me decide on a rubber (final)

    Hi, you are very enthusiastic and you have started several discussions about rubbers. There is 10T rubbers out there, it's very tempting, for me too. But I will now cross the line and tell you my opinion: Instead of being obsessive about the rubbers, get obsessive about acquiring the proper...
  2. Bfly too expensive, rubber advice please

    You could explore the Rakza family. Durability is good.
  3. Will Truls beat Fan Zhendong?

    No. FZD wins 4:1. Let's blame myself/ourselves...
  4. What is STIGA Cybershape?

    Absolutely, very impressive against LYU. He's great to watch. The loss to TM must felt soo bitter. Against FZD, well, perhaps it would be good, but imho, very very little chance. I better shut up now. Cheers.
  5. What is STIGA Cybershape?

    It was different. It was tight. Last 2 sets he was the better player. Pitty for TB, I'd wish he wins it whole. Was in great shape and injury or whatever comes...
  6. Is Truls the new Waldner??

    Many are really talented. For example, LYU or WCQ. My impression when I see LYU is like, wow, that is so obviously hugely beautiful (and also kind of physical), but when I see TM, I think more like, wow, that is bat-shit crazy (also kind of mental). Well, that's my impression anyways...
  7. Is Truls the new Waldner??

    :-)) He has the spark. Otherwise we wouldn't be discussing, would we?
  8. Need new rubber

    What do you dislike on those rubbers?
  9. Frustration over first non pre-assembled blade

    It's possible your new blade is actually slower than the premade one, but that should not cause what you say. There is a *minor* possibility the rubbers are not glued properly. Check if the bat plays the same on both sides. If you want to be 100%, reglue the rubbers yourself, you'll need it...
  10. World Table Tennis Championships 2021

    Nice display of respect from Lebesson.
  11. Top Spin vs Loop Kill

    YEEES! What a fine way! Zeio's term should be reduced, at least equalized :-) You can't shut the sun anyway! And black-hole neither, for that matter :-) Not that I have much against the high quality state of the matter in the black-hole though :-)
  12. World Table Tennis Championships 2021

    Watch on table 3 later today... See schedule here... Edit: Tipiak won :-)
  13. H3N 37 Degrees

    Yes, it can. No need to worry. For example, I prefer H37 on backhand to H39 or harder. So many options... Anyways, I think your choice is good, many people use it.
  14. H3N 37 Degrees

    Good to hear something like this for a change :-) Cheers.
  15. Tackiness versus grippiness

    Out of curiosity, approx. how much difference in % are we dealing with? If not available, no problem. And as usual, thanks for the useful closing remarks. Similar like those in the paddle mass thread.
  16. Looking for non-tacky rubbers

    I didn't. Too bolschevik even for me.
  17. What is STIGA Cybershape?

    Thanks for this overlay comparison, very useful! Can you by chance throw the HL5 with its larger head in pls.
  18. Looking for non-tacky rubbers

    Similar. Presto Spin felt a bit gripier than AK47 Blue, the top-sheet a bit more quality (didn't detach on edges), durability approx. the same, maybe top-sheet on AK47 a bit softer, not so sure, it's been a while. Is the price diff justified, hard to say. I think both have good quality/price...
  19. Looking for non-tacky rubbers

    But those take place before you play ;-) Yes. It's perfectly fine. It is just a bit unfortunate to be convinced that tacky rubbers require some "better" technique... But at the end it doesn't matter either. As langel says, OCP. Or we can say: OOP :-)
