  1. Sabine Winter switches to antispin

    Allow him to continue his arguments. He is revealing himself for who he is perpetually. Nagasaki is the higher ranked player than Sabine. What is so special about her beating Sabine? And why is Japan so critical when Sabine is clearly the top ranked player in Germany and Europe? Does Japan...

    Can the rating and technical experts guess this guy's rating?

    Have you tried Primorac Carbon, Gozo? What did you think of it if so?
  6. Butterfly Zyre 03

    If it was a Primorac Carbon, or Amultart would you have called him Crazy?

    Custom or commercial?
  8. Calderano Signs with Joola (#139)

    Nah, my argument had nothing to do with Matt. I just wanted to point out that my experience with Butterfly blades has some exceptions to yours. You clearly had a bad experience with the Anders Lind blades and copies and I am just trying to see how deeply you investigated it by collecting data...
  9. Rapidly improving “begginer” equipment

    So the challenge you have is that you will be working with a coach who doesn't believe in it. I am not sure how to advise you because seriously, it is not about form or playing level, the most important thing is having a coach who believes in you and is willing to work with you. And if this...

    You may not know him, but you can google his name. When someone posts under their full real name, please treat them with respect. He posts a lot of youtube content. He commentates for MLTT. I have known him in table tennis circles for over a decade so he has a big reputation with integrity to...
  11. Rapidly improving “begginer” equipment

    The question is what people think that developing your technique differently means when you have a coach. In a sense, if your coach is the one telling you to wait, then do what your coach says because he is taking responsibility for your development. Ask him some questions like what playing...

    Did you collect data from the comparison process? Like did you measure the blade weights, frequencies etc. I have two Butterfly Innerforce T5000s, one is barely over 80g and the other is close to 100g and is varnished. It's not worth discussing them as the same blade but they are supposed to be.

    The implication is why you think that his admitting that pros can get custom blades, if it were true, would drive their sales down. The bottom line is I am saying you should stop coming up with strong reasons to claim Matt is lying. He is the one who often gives pros what they use, he is...

    Get an ALC - I would recommend the FZD or Viscaria but if you like the Boll, it is all good as well, they are mostly handle differences though the Boll for some reason feels glossier. You can keep or change the rubbers as you please, Rozena is a good rubber and will prepare you well for any...

    Two cars can be driven at the same speed. Whether that means they drive the same is another story. For blades, wood is a living thing, so it would be hard to argue that two different blades play the same. But it does in part depend on your sensitivity to equipment.

    Butterfly admits they do. What has that done to their sales? Driven them into the ground?
  17. Butterfly Zyre 03

    Same topsheet as Tenergy 05 so yes.

    Dima has gone one D09c, one Z03. I think he should just have become best friends with Luka and practiced with him rather than changing. That said I do want to see the new Zyre masters (LYJ, Harimoto and Togami) play choppers and see how they adapt.

    Hinoki (soft) and Zyre, a good combination. In fact, some.people might wonder how the heck did i pick my current blade for Zyre? Well in a brilliant piece of likely unintentional marketing, the equipment expert at Bowmar Sports (Butterfly NA) casually said he uses it on the forehand of the...

    Not at all. I get you 100%. There is a school of Zyre users you belong to. It isnt so much about amateur technique but not needing infinite dwell time to hit good shots or play in the short game. You also came with an innerforce blade with soft outer plies so you already get a lot of dwell...
