footwork!

Chinese style FH is actually not so difficult to learn. Try learning leg movements and game sense to execute this shot..that's incredibly hard and takes a lot of practice and tournament plays. Appropriate rubber to learn is no doubt Hurricane 3.

I miss variety. Penhold players used to vary the game a lot, Xu Xin with his unique flicks and side swipes, Ma Lin with his TPB, short game and killer FH loops near the table, Wang Hao with dominating BH. I actually lost a little bit of passion to the pro scene since it's all the same. In...

I am very much comfortable with Xiom Vega X on my BH currently, does everything I need. Weight: YEO 87g, overall with TG2 40 deg comm orange sponge + Vega X = 187g.

Very cool. What's the weight of the blade? My came in 87gramms. At first it felt heavy, but then I adjusted. Then I applied Vega X on the BH and it became even heavier (187 total), but I adjusted again and now I feel that with this blade I can do literally anything. I will probably upload some...

Correct. It has softer, porous sponge and can be played without boosting, but it still requires some break-in period. It can be boosted with Seamoon and this is where this rubber shines. Overall, H3 37 is better though. With h8-80 it feels like there's not enough pressure on the opponent, the...

For some reason I read this and automatically think: this really sounds like generic answer from ChatGPT...no offense :) I played with H3 37 boosted on Viscaria and did well in all aspects, but hassle of boosting BH rubber is just too much for me.

My friend is currently in China and says that TG2 is not that easy to find (comparing to BTY rubbers or H3 of all sorts). I wonder if Skyline 2 is discontinued and no longer produced...then I need to stock up :) I am very content with the tackiness level of two TG2 sheets that I had. I hope...

this is why YEO is so much more expensive on AliExpress, than on tt11, for example..huh. @netdriver there's an outstanding review of Goiabao 5 blade here: https://mytabletennis.net/forum/new-yasaka-rose-5-goiabao-5-review_topic70186.html Your fextra is easier to produce spin, because it has...

After boosting & several training sessions these all feel very similar. That's enough to improve and train and compete, since TT is not only about rubbers

Ah this time wasted on trying rubbers other than H3...congrats on returning to the classics. Great post. It's kinda sad that DHS doesn't have TG2 Provincial orange sponge variant, only blue sponge(even that was released in around 2017 only, I think)...I've tried H3 BS and didn't like the throw...

Nice Ping Pong rubber.

Finally, YEO arrived 😍

H3 is more deadly unboosted. Boosted these are both very good rubbers, tg2 shines in short game. The touch is amazing, overall feeling is more...safe, I guess ? Great rubber for penhold. Just try both, words are not enough to describe the real difference. With tg2 I have confidence, with H3 -...

will probably get a bunch of DHS TG2s NEO and may be TG2 blue sponge provincial. great rubbers

Choose healthy food. And Hurricane 3.

Yeah, I played with TG2 only once before this sheet and on Viscaria, which is quite fast. I liked it, it bubbled in around 1 month. Playing top spin on top spin with my sparring partner actually kills any boosted Chinese rubber in around 1 month :cry: It needs same break-in period as H3. But...

Tried TG2 today on my Nittaku S7. Amazing rubber, better feeling than h3, outstanding control close to the table, and yeah, blocking was a breeze (flipped it to the BH side). Though, boosting BH rubber is not something I really want... 729 Snipe III turned out to be OK, it can do every shot...

G-1 doesn't feel right on the BH on stiff blades like Viscaria in my experience, but on Acoustic or 7ply flexy blades it's great. I loved it on the Long 5 on the BH for all offensive strokes, but blocking was a little too difficult, especially against strong opponents. C-1 on the other hand is...

yeah!. Waiting for my YEO arrival to put it on. H3 will be used on Stuor blade.
