I see a lot of players bitch and moan about nets and edges. I agree of a massive misread shot they can be extremely fortunate. However, if you are a brave player (like me) with your positioning of the ball, I play wide and long when I can you are going to get edges. I get a lot of edges. But...

i have an acoustic large flared handle, 92g

I actually like Mima Ito's drooping shoulders, smiles and other expressive body language, probably it is not the utmost in professionalism, but I am fed up of watching robot players. I think it makes her more compelling to watch and gives me more empathy for her than many of the other players...

Everyone should do a large print version and post it up at your local club. It should be translated into all the languages of the world and posted in other languages too!

Baal, here is the full list in one place!! New "Rules" for Table Tennis These are inspired by "The Rules" a set of guidance originally provided to Road Cyclists by a group called the Velominati. Here are an analogous set of rules for our sport. 1. Wipe your damned sweat off the table. 2. No...

Patrick your review on TT11 was very accurate. trained for 2 hours then played a match last night. I can't believe how good it is on drives!! I have always blocked well with any Hurricane and this is better. Serves are so spinny, but just adjusting to that. And counter loops as you described...

This rubber is incredible!! It is faster than any Hurricane I have used before. It is so spinny on full shots. Serves are nuts spinny. Blocks are incredible. It does punish you if you are playing a bad shot, but it is awesome when you play a good one. But here is the thing it is so much...

Would people say the throw is higher than DHS Hurricane 3 Neo? Do you think players that have used DHS H3Neo a lot will find the adjustment seamless? Not too big a jump in technique improvement needed? I use a Force Pro Blue, will this be suitable?

Thanks Patrick, I use pips too on force pro blue, so I will have to make it work on that if I decide to use it. I ordered a sheet, so we will see!! Excellent reviews BTW, very informative!!

Patrick, can I ask, I am really wanting to try the Pro Blue rubber, but on paper that sponge sounds way too hard. I feel you are a really good player, I am a mortal player. I can play with Hurricane Neo, do you think it would be a very big skill jump to go to the Pro Blue. I like the...

Patryk do you think it would last longer if one only used it for matches and i guess had a second blade for training. Then the 60 hours might take longer than if used in training too.

I suffer from the same problem, I am so much better when I am warm. I think a good warm up before playing is important, so when you hit your first ball you are already warm.

I really dont like the harder sponged non tacky rubbers and I don't seem to like softer tacky rubbers. To me I can only really loop and power loop safely with the high arc of tenergy 05fx or Hurricane which I can make arc higher because of the tack I suspect the reality is I should use...

So Yogi. I am the player that uses Tenergy and beats the vets that use long pimples and defenders, (I am 49), then i play a two winged looper who attacks all my serves and i cant serve tight enough and they attack all my tenergy fhs. So then I get annoyed and go back to Hurricane and then i...

Plus i do not want to open it if it will just be another not very good hurricane hybrid

i bought it on a wim, but actually I think i need to stick to tenergy 05fx in 1.9 and just get a bit better at serving tighter against certain individuals!!

Is it particularly spinny?

Anyone tried this yet? I have a new sheet unopened but am unsure whether to try it or not. How is it comparable with original Big Dipper? Is it any lighter? I will take some pictures later!!

Baal, I can not agree with this, passing gas at the change of ends is a highly innovative and technically skilled tactic!! Have you ever tried holding it in whilst doing a turbo nutter forehand loop!!

A friend of mine has a Primorac Black Tag, the head looks a little smaller to me. Are they valuable, sought after? I tried to buy it off him. It looked nice!!
