Change the Baracuda to Fastarc and keep the Grubba.

Looks like a Yasaka Alnade just like Fan Zhendong's blade looks like a Stiga Infinity.

I know my point is that everyone loses.

LGY lost both his matches after showing good form on his trip to Hungary. I know what you mean, but FZD is still the top performer in Super League.

I have actually used them. To use LP especially at a skillful level takes practice and time but it is not *much* harder than inverted depending on what you are trying to do. Getting to a very high level is what is really hard. That inverted has serious advantages is just the nature of table...

I think the framing of the question shows a misunderstanding of what the issue is - how far a player with a weakness, which is usually relative, can be pretty far. Let's say someone uses inverted on both forehand and backhand and is losing a lot of matches. He switches to pips on backhand and...

Some people use it for style reasons but some people use it to mask a weakness or a relative inability to use inverted to loop and control spin. If your blocking is good but your looping is bad, then short pips at least give your blocking a different feeling. That is not really a style change...

Much harder to do what? Each rubber makes it easier to do some things and harder to do others.

Sure ... wink wink.

The point of the story was that this guy was being harassed to lose weight and get smaller because everyone thought he was overweight when he wasn't. Maybe my memory exaggerates the number because I haven't seen the book in a while. But the focus on 2% is not my point. My point is that the...

Ah, pointing me to the Facebook page. Haven't seen that in a while. I actually don't use Facebook at all. Anything you can share here on YouTube or another internet site?

It is spin sensitive like inverted rubber but because the sponge is not bouncy it is less like Tenergy 05 and more subtle. Definitely not worse than Vega Pro and better than T05.

None of these are new or rising stars other than Manika Batra. And I think one could argue that it is the improvement of other parts of Batra's game that are more involved in her improvement than the chop blocking. Finally they are all women. I asked loopadoop for a reason as well. Loopadoop...

If you like Vega Pro pr Rakza 7, this is better IMO with the same technology and equally competitive price. Of course if you like the new rubbers, you may find this slow or in need of boosting. But I don't think there is any other competitor in the price for value arena.

Fastarc G1 has everything I would ever want in a rubber and I wish ESN and Nittaku had made this rubber more widely available at smaller European retailers earlier. It is the most popular rubber in Japan for a reason and I don't see the need to waste money on anything else.

The era of spin for the sake of spin is over. The era of spin for the sake of consistency and speed is here. The true genius now is to use high levels of spin to remain consistent but it is not going to win you as many points. I think this is my primary justification for going to a faster and...

This is the CSL. Did you see Lin Gaoyuan?

Is this blade still available?

Can you give some notable examples at high level tournaments in any part of the world?

You do know that men and women are different in terms of fat composition, right?
