Yup, noticed that too. Both had excellent footwork.

It is 50+ on Shore O/ESN hardness scale - you cannot compare Shore A (Japanese) to Shore O (ESN) hardness numbers. https://forum.tt-news.de/showpost.php?p=3381321&postcount=5

The price issue is next to irrelevant here - z2 is 50+ degrees hard, while Rozena is at most 45. These two rubbers are nothing alike.

Location, location, location ... Compare the audience at the last several nationals to the ones in 2016 which were held at the Hertfordshire Sports Village in Hatfield, England, which is basically north London. The sports hall was full pretty much every day. Just look at this - all seats are...

Never played with it.

One more year until an ESN vendor claims a revolutionary breakthrough by reinventing Tibhar K2 :)

Each time I was up against someone using Rozena in my local leagues or practice matches (and including yourself that time you came to my club in St Albans!), it had never failed to surprise me just how loaded with spin their loops were. IMO, Rozena is an extemely underappreciated rubber and...

WTT have screwed all TT fans in UK. Even if you get viaplay sports channels via Sky/VM/Prime, WTT Singapore Smash is not broadcast on these TV channels, so one must watch it online on the viaplay website and that requires a separate viaplay sports subscription.

Don't forget this rating is based on only 10 matches. Had he played 100, then the resulting rating would be a much better reflection of his actual level. But even looking at these 10 results, in my opinion, it is obvious that Craig is underrated at 2200 - and his actual current level could...

Yup, and there was also a rally or two between them in Victor's post tournament highlights video.

K2 pro is far less tacky than K2, almost like a K3. Sponge porousness is between K2's sponge and K3's sponge. I did not like it. Speedwise, K2 < K2 Pro < K3.

K2 blazingly fast and slower than K3? That was not my experience at all. Even K2 boosted with Falco tempo long was not as fast as K3.

Harsh review. How badly did you lose to Dora? Just kidding.

There is a classic article by Samson Dubina - Various Game Styles - describing how to play against different typical playing styles which I have found quite useful on many occasions. I even carry a printout in my bat wallet. :-) Here is the section on what to do against short pips Amanda the...

I lost to an over-40 looper a couple of months ago. He used this blade with Dignics 09c on fh, 05 on bh. He didn’t seem to have any problems looping with it on either wing.

Hi Ben. I see you're uploading raw MTS files to Youtube. Try converting MTS to MP4 on your PC first, for example, using Handbrake (https://handbrake.fr/). The resulting MP4 files will be much smaller and will take far less time to upload to/get processed on YouTube.

Come on, guys. It's not like the seniors got smashed off the table without getting more than 5 points in each leg. Each game went to 5, first 3 were 11:8 in the 5th, last was deuce in the 5th. The final score could have just as easily been 4:0 to the seniors.

No disagreement here. I'd rather these discussion were about how sponge hardness (or better - overall perceived/effective rubber hardness) affects the shots.

Personally, I find these throw angle/dwell time discussions very entertaining (popcorn time!!!) and yet ultimately completely pointless and counterproductive. If manufacturer says rubber A is high-throw and rubber B is low-throw, does that mean we cannot produce a low-arc loop with rubber A? Of...
