  1. New rubbers

    I have a trainingpartner with an Allround+ racket. I recommended Xiom Vega Pro to him and he improved his backhand a lot. I would maybe go for a smth around 2.0 instead of max like in his case. Dunno why, but he wanted max. Imo this rubber is too fast this way. Beside his topspins and flicks got...
  2. Dhs h8-80

    I played mine (37°) for some time now and it is awesome. I will probably still stick with the boosted Hurricane 8 because of price-reasons, but this rubber is definitly in my TOP 3 backhand rubbers. Thanks to its sticky surface you can still play a really good short game and the attack is...
  3. what's your serve return thought process

    Definitly true, but you still can think about it to be mentally prepared. For example if i know my opponent is able to perform good, long serves, than you should always expect these serves for several reasons: 1. If are not ready for it, your either lose the point already at this point or at...
  4. Looking for a Table Tennis Blade

    If you dont want to pay nearly double the price for these products, you kinda have to buy from prott.vip or aliexpress. I have some experience with the following traders - all of their products were originals, at least checked once: Chinese Pingpong (even personal contant with their trader)...
  5. What are all the factory-tuned Chinese rubbers?

    So where is the rubber that has this "booster" application? The definition comes from the booster you use itself, because it is exactly what it does, which gives you the more bouncier effect. What many people confound (i guess that is the right word^^) is the "factory tuned" status of a...
  6. What are all the Chinese backhand-oriented rubbers?

    Focus 3 Sniper, Hurricane 8 (37 boosted), Hurricane 3 neo (37 boosted), Hurricane 8-80 (37)
  7. Should I change to Chinese rubber on the forehand?

    Then sure go ahead. Just bear in mind, that this change wont happen in a few weeks and it cant be quite frustrating if you are unable to see your mistakes. Finding a coach for that issue can be quite difficult too. If you want to take it seriously though you could stark recording your training...
  8. What are all the factory-tuned Chinese rubbers?

    Yes and no. Yes it does have a "boosting" effect but that effect is not as durable as haifu-oil or Falco.
  9. Hurricane 8

    5 out of 5 rating for Hurricane 8 I would agree with most of the reviews here. But i needed to add something:Yeah this rubber needs technique and is slow in itself. This is something many of you should already know about a comparable rubber, like the Hurricane 3. So what are we doing with the...
  10. Should I change to Chinese rubber on the forehand?

    If you have no proper reason to change your playstyle and you already learned and grew with the european playstyle it would be kinda foolish to switch. If you wanne try it "for the lulz" - yeah ok then go for it. I mean it is still an interesting experience. But if you want to grow and get...
  11. Uncertainty about short balls

    Depends. As long as you are fast enough and can score with it, keep it up and go for these shots (especially if they are higher). In case your opponents adepts and is suddenly able to block them so fast, that you are unable to get back in position and counter that shot, you should go for a...

    Besides this Forum, check youtube. Coach Lin and Ti Long are pretty good sources to get really good information from.
  14. What are all the factory-tuned Chinese rubbers?

    The definition of a boosted rubber contains that the sponge is expanded. If that is the case the rubber has to be curved at least to a certain extent. That is not the case for any of the Hurricane versions. Besides that, what is the point of the debate if it is factory tuned or not. Everything...
  15. Hurricane 8

    Review by 'Attitude' on item 'Hurricane 8'

    I would agree with most of the reviews here. But i needed to add something:Yeah this rubber needs technique and is slow in itself. This is something many of you should already know about a comparable rubber, like the Hurricane 3. So what are we doing with the Hurricane 3 to compensate for the...
  16. Cheap AC Blade?

    Just dont forget to sand and seal this blade if possible. Otherwise you gonna rebuy those next time you switch the rubber. If you want more esn style rubbers than chinese, you should checkout xiom. Tau on fh and vega pro on bh and you have pretty rocketlike setup
  17. Boosted rubber will not uncurl - Help

    If this doesnt flatten at all the next 2-3 days you ****ed up i.e. used too much/often booster The protective sheet caaaan stay on but it is not a good idea because it can have a negative effect on the expansion of the rubber. I usually would recommend getting rid of it the moment you start...
  18. Fan Zhendong Reverse Pendulum (Fake motion)

    Simple answer: no he does not. The only "fake" motion i saw him ever doing was going into his position for the reverse one, but did just a normal pendulum serve. But that cant be called a fakemotion at all
  19. New Blade Boll ALC or Hurricane Long 5

    Beside the points mentioned (and i agree on most parts of it) i would go for the boll alc above Hurricane all time long. These kind of blades are played by a ton of very good players. They provide everything a player could ask for and are very well made. On top of that, i played several...
  20. DHS H3 Provincial BS, 41 degree MAX (unboosted)

    The Rakza would feel way bouncier and probably faster, depending on how you hit the ball with your backhand, than your STN. This is really a complete different kind of rubber. Just keep the other dhs rubber. If you find your way into boosting you can test both rubbers. Maybe then you will like...
