did you ever end up giving this a try NL? curious to hear your thoughts if so. I ended up trying it briefly.

While I've only played through one sheet of D05, I've been through a bunch of T05 in my day and am surprised to hear the opinion that they have similar durability. To me D05 has 50% more or so. Could just be in my head, but it seems to keep its grip much much longer than tenergy does. So to me...

It's table tennis - anything can happen like this. Lots of negativity in this thread. I'm a gigantic Iba fan and this was sad to see but I think he could have avoided this loss. But it's also understandable - tough style that you never worry about encountering at his level and where he plays...

Thanks to this one post I went from forgetting OSP even existed to thinking that what I need most in the world is a Virtuoso.

It is tempting to try. I liked MK a lot on forehand, though in hindsight i felt it was just a little too pillowy as NL kind of perfectly put it. That did help in a lot of ways though, weirdly. I find myself intimidated still by a lot of the rubbers marketed now that are 53 or harder, but this is...

To answer your question: I used MK max on forehand through three sheets, and then started testing G1 max going double black to compare them and ended up accidentally liking MK for my backhand so much that I then decided to purchase in 2.0 red to have a legal racket. I'm not going off of a years...

yeah agreed. I was using MK on my forehand for about three sheets worth, I did like it quite a bit after all. Then ended up wanting something with a little more catapult on that side. Went to G1 for a while (max) and honestly they're so different. They're both more 'linear' style rubbers, but G1...

yeah I'm confused. Tenergy 05 is right there lol

Is something going on with TTDSL? Initially they said they delayed putting it out so they could have it all ready to go for weekly releases. Then after a couple, they went a few weeks before a release. then again. Then they had episodes scheduled on their website - there was supposed to be one...

I'm confused. Dignics 09c is an alternative to Chinese rubbers, not the other way around :ROFLMAO:

I've learned how to coach myself through the power of grueling self awareness and video feedback, with deep philosophical reflection. Boy is my coach an asshole.

I just wanna reply to +1 this comment as it's an overlooked bit of all of kneesovertoesguy's content. He preaches the importance of your starting point being a spot where you don't experience pain and building from there. When I first saw his stuff I just thought he was another social media...

In my opinion a lot of what's touched on this thread is just a summary of why equipment reviews are alllllll over the place with disagreements. "pfft, you think THIS rubber can generate more spin than THIS rubber, whatever bro!" but that's reality for some people. Hearing about Dodean and maybe...

I've been really curious about C45 as a potential backhand rubber but haven't heard anything really come about yet. What are your thoughts?

Shipping out for L.A. Open Wednesday. Anyone gonna be out there?

I seem to always come back to buying a sheet of Fastarc G1 for my forehand despite how great something else feels for a while. I probably should play with it, but for some reason my brain has it classified as the most boring option on the planet.

i've never been so hyped in my life

After I ventured away from using MK on the forehand for a while to try a couple of other things, namely MX-S (which i did like a lot overall, just was a little hot for me), I put it back on before a local tournament and it was like hugging an old friend. Used it in the tournament and played well...

I can give you a brief review. My experience with CMD is that I've used it on my backhand in Purple 2.0mm basically since it came out up to this week when I've decided to try something new, so a few years. Hard disagree on the above comment that it can't produce speed or spin, that's just...

this has been my recent experience kind of as well. I'm getting more table time than I ever have, have never had this high level of a practice partner, haven't weighed this little since I was 19, and would confidently say that my level on the practice table is a good bit higher than it's ever...
