In the video below is an 81 year old chopper (He is about 1900-2000 now, his highest level in the current history was 2300-2400, may have been even higher when younger). Unfortunately, this was the only video I could get of him and he is playing another pips player so you may not appreciate how...

He is playing this year as well. He is still in Eslov I believe.

They pretty much all do, except the few with life accidents, injuries and character issues. There is a junior tour that gives rating points so it feeds the senior tour. Whether this will all change with the new rating system will be interesting.

The kid is a 15 year old prodigy being raised to be World Champion. What do you want him to Do? And he is probably more disappointed in his ability to perform on that stage. But I think people are just gratuitously criticizing him. Waldner wasn't humble either.

JesperStef, The girls final score is definitely wrong. It was deuce in the 7th after all... looks like you took the Girls SF score.

Or Boll. As Schlager once said, the things that make great players great are not found in the textbooks. Given how strong Moregardh's forehand is, I find 42andbackpains concern extremely weird.

He is 15. Give him a break.

Someone may say that the ZJK ALCis faster than a Viscaria for example. First of all, wood is from a living thing and living things are not always physically consistent in density etc. So blades can be similarly constructed but be made of differently dense woods even though the woods are...

This is getting exhausting. Which people told you these things, how many of those blades have they used and are they equipment experts? Baal has used all those blades and the True Carbon. I have used and tested all those blades as well. If you Google Butterfly Blade Specifications chart...

So I am testing a blade called the Tibhar Inca. I put two Evolution MX-S on both sides. I wasn't sure whether I Wanted to do this initially as I usually hate testing a new blade with a rubber I haven't used in a while. I had put Evolution MX-S on the forehand of my Mazunov (you see me using...

IF you are in LA, I should be able to send it without a problem. I just hate the pain of international postage and filling out all those custom forms. Send me a PM with your address in the US.

IF you will pay for postage, sure!

The true Carbon is arguably stiffer and less forgiving than the Butterfly ALCs (I used the true carbon for the last month - thought it was for me, but realized that it was a bit too fast for my style and if Lermanator wants a free TC to use, I can gladly give him one as I will be giving most of...

Curious - how many Hinoki blades have you played with? Does Hinoki quality have nothing to do with age? And if it is true that higher quality hinoki makes the blades feel better, why is the feeling being compared to that of people who kill elephants for ivory?

Not a fan of mercy points. It's his prerogative.

Use Tenergy. The silly questions will end fast. I already have a high spin level. With certain balls my spin is ridiculous. When I loop the Nittaku I feel like it is speed glue era spin. I think the Evolution -S series is special.

Nah. The 2000 level players will handle me fine it is all in my head.

Look at the video of the blade and make up your own mind. I don't argue over facts - it is either koto or it is not, but I am not trusting that database over my eyes and the Butterfly spec chart.

You should have replied, "We'll see", old farmer!

I am using the Tibhar Inca (incidentally, a Nexy designed blade) and it has a hinoki-outer ply. To make things worse, it has a ball grabbing ALC ply for when you loop hard so the blade feels even more linear than most Hinoki blades. To make top it all off, I combined it with Evolution MX-S...
