  1. Can't find the right rubber for my FH

    Last night at Citrus heights, John Rambo Daniil, a rising local Ukrainian player, got a sheet of Aurus from me, had me slap it on hiz Super Viscaria... dude all smiles on his BH (He used Aurus for his BH). Could land it with percentage and pace. He also got his lettered uniforms out of the...
  2. Can't find the right rubber for my FH

    Original Aurus is 50 degree sponge, soft is low 40s... their prime and whatever other variants are different, never used them so I do not know. With the soft topsheet, that 50 sponge feels softer, yes it feels like a mid firm. Aurus simply makes every shot you do easier... kinda like a more...
  3. Can't find the right rubber for my FH

    Danoma... try out other players bats for one minute every chance you get... this is free of money cost AND players are usually very willing to show off their stuff. This is try before you buy stuff. I think ultimately, a soft topsheet with a firm enough sponge is what you want... and Tibhar...
  4. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Yes were not mad, but maybe I made Daniil mad by telling the world about his wonderful name. Watch out for the Klondikes, Daniil gets better after eating them and he actually lost weight.
  5. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Since I created Rambo... I have made myself a COL Trautman... so that is my new identity in SE Sac TT realm.

    hahahahah haha, hahahaha haha,hehehehehe. Yes, J-Slick got it right... when you get good enough, you can feel everything well and do well with a lot of stuff. Der_Echte DID ask J-Slick to hit with it briefly and comment on the forum... and I DID interrupt him before league as he was knocking...
  7. Anybody tried Air Assassin rubber?

    I gunna be Oscar the Grouch here... that rubber cost relative peanuts.. just buy it from Cole and use it. You are helping him help you and me out by buying it from him sight unseen. I did get a free sheet of that rubber from him on one of my orders when I was still in the Army... that rubber...
  8. Fancy blades are just not worth it

    NL, you need to see firsthand how a slow blade like V2 Persson Power Play and a slow rubber like Aurus Soft can block Blitzkrieg schnell...
  9. Fancy blades are just not worth it

    Wow. This is gunna be such a Debbie downer to the owners of MULTIPLE $1000 Long series baldes with triple boosted H3 Nationale...
  10. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    A few weeks ago, I got a few DoniC Persson Power Play V2 blades in SH handle. Straight out of box without changing the handle to a fat handle... totally OEM... slapped on a used sheet of regular Aurus for FH and a new black sheet of Aurus Soft... WOW. Blade is SUPPOSED to be slower by some...
  11. Side tape REALLY change the feeling or not? What do you think?

    I didn't really get into the physics of head heavy hollowed out or solid lower balance. Research my past posts on this to learn how I feel. (you would see I like heavy weight low balance solid)
  12. Side tape REALLY change the feeling or not? What do you think?

    Yes, minor and weight distribution isn't too terrible in net terms to my feel. I never really felt it affected my play at all nor could I feel it different immediately... but if you were to test out a dozen blades the same hour, you would be hitting the edge of bat with ball a LOT as the way...
  13. DTTB Announces Paris 2024 Lineups

    I confirm NL for years has played at a level that less than 10% of players reach. Anybody with any half-azz understanding of TT can look at how/what NL writes and know that NL is not making it up. When NL says such and such member is blowing smoke, there is a very good chance that is a fact...

    NL, I have been itching to send you the bat in my sig (with soft BH rubber) along with a couple leftover Nexy "Skull" shirts and a couple Thomas Sowell books for your kids... you might not hate the soft on BH once you operate this blade in action. it really isn't slow at all.
  15. Playing against long side spin serves

    You are using the Donic Persson Power Play. Blade is total rubbish. Internet TT forum AI sez get a W968 and Diginiski 09C on your BH and it will be unfair.
  16. What do you call this BH stroke in English?

    BH Hit... could also be called a BH Drive... when done against an incoming topspin attack it can be called a BH counter... a BH Counter Hit... a BH Counter Drive... If stroke is short enough and there is enough firming at impact, then it can also a called a BH Punch.
  17. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    This is CORRECT (and I also did the safe sport certs (to coach at Shashin's club a spell). It is NEVER good policy as a coach to be alone with a minor anywhere. If S.D. was ever alone with a minor as a TT coach, he will not be a TT coach under Safe Sport. On the other side, if one is not ever...
  18. Rubber for Chopper's Forehand

    Can chop damn well with Aurus Soft and I do goof off and chop when I can.
  19. Modern "classic" rubbers

    I believe in hiz heart, the OP is looking for a modern rubber that is not overly fast. not bouncy, has gears, and can do many things well, but not 100. That description is exactly Tibhar Aurus.
  20. Need advise for my backhand rubber (Currently Rakza Z)

    As for how this very question (more suitable BH rubber for me) applied to me at a 2000+ tourney level is a former national player had piles and piles of possible rubbers... ... I tried them one by one for a few hundred shots vs several different kinds of balls I get in a rally. ... my friend...
