  1. Hybrid suggestions for someone coming from H3

    Rakza Z in my experience is a very safe, quite spinny rubber, but it's lacking in the high gears. If you don't want to finish the rally early it might be good, but maybe the EH version? V>15 Sticky is definitely spinnier and faster, overall an amazing rubber but I've heard that it's short lived.
  2. WTT Contendor Skopje 2026 (1 - 7 June 2026)

    Anyone knows what was that "don't put too much spin on the ball" by the umpire?
  3. Technique for old folks

    I am not sure, maybe we can try. First keeping the movements short and light will be the way together with conditioning.
  4. Technique for old folks

    Thanks for the tips from everyone! He is doing physio btw.
  5. Technique for old folks

    Hi! My father recently grabbed a racket and started to play on our outdoor table. He was a fairly good player in his youth years, but he was always an extremely aggressive player. He is almost 70 now and has some spine issues, but his old reflexes kick in and while didn't get injured yet, I am...
  6. How do you fit table tennis around a demanding job?

    Shadow practice can be very useful, just record yourself to correct the movements.
  7. Hungary had a prodigy...

    The association is corrupt and and a group of allies/friends basically. Her father has a training plan for her and he is the one who wants to work with her, with great success. The national team wants complete control over the players, which did not sit well with the father (and some of the...
  8. Hungary had a prodigy...

    No, that was a training camp only. She is either training with the croatian team or with her father/usual training partners in hungary. Next week she will play her first adult WTT, I am curious how she performs. In league she lost to Ni Xialiang 3-1, but WTT is a little different. It depends on...
  9. Hungary had a prodigy...

    The girl's team reached the final in the Croatian first league as underdogs and ultimately lost. She played two matches, won one and lost one (against an ex-hungarians national team member who used to train with her). Here is a compilation of good points, unfortunately only on facebook...
  10. Switched rubbers

    Keeping your core tight might be good, but hard to say without a video.
  11. 1. Bundesliga Women 2025/2026

    Thank you for the continous updates!
  12. Is the D05 the best in its league?

    Second this! I play with the V>22 for more than a year now and I would say it's a bit faster and has a slightly different feeling, but it's spinny, durable (not as much much as the D05 but still) and much-much cheaper. I still prefer the D05 a little, but it's just 45-60% of the price of the...
  13. TT11 Blind Rubber Test

    I think so and I also heavily disagree with the assessments of the two younger players, on any video of them basically.
  14. TT11 Blind Rubber Test

    Dani Kosiba (the pro player) trains at our club sometimes, he plays with a FZD ALC + T05.
  15. TT11 Blind Rubber Test

    TT11 posted a video them blind testing Zyre, D05, Bluestar a2 and MX-P°50. The results were quite interesting, but I think using an all wood blade made it pointless. The results are very weird and honestly I think anomalies like the Zyre called a soft slow rubber and D05 having extremely low...

    I think you might like the style of Kao Cheng Rui as well
  17. Does the D05 needs boosting

    I admit I wasn't very clear what I meant, no offense taken.
  18. Zhang Jike signs with Donic

    Marketing and he always has....questionable opinions on equipment. Like he played for many years with the same blade, but you should sand off a pretty thick layer of the wood when you reglue, inner carbon is unusable after a few reglue, he played with Hurricane 2.15 but it's unusable etc...

  19. Does the D05 needs boosting

    I just wanted to share anecdotes, not giving advice. The advice I gave was "you probably don't need boosting", as I have no idea about his level. Softening of the sponge makes the ball sink into it easier. Also, the oil I think creeps into the tosheet a little. It gets grippier in the...
  20. Does the D05 needs boosting

    D05 plays better with booster, but you probably don't need it. I asked pro players in our club if they boost and yes. One of them said that it's more stable boosted and better far from the table and one said that the ones imported from japan are much better (he probably got them from the JNT)...
