Google Translate translates this: "Yes, they are absolutely legal and very high quality knives. I have used the wooden one for a while. It had scientific and excellent workmanship. You can have any knife made according to the desired layer and playing style. It is perfect, definitely...

Google translate translates this: "I think you definitely want to try the INKUNZI brand, the knives can be made and it has a very high quality workmanship, I myself produce excellent knives that have been working for a long time and being backed up." === I guess Google Translate is...

Then it is in my head as well. Edge tape does make the blade face heavier. But, I do think it also dampens vibrations from the blade a little as well. The question there is, does the blade already give enough feedback that a little dampening is useful. Or is the blade already muted enough...

The verb is muffle; past tense muffled: verb (used with object) , muf·fled, muf·fling. to wrap with something to deaden or prevent sound: to muffle drums. to deaden (sound) by wrappings or other means.

I hate edge tape. I don't use it. I also like how it looks better without edge tape. But edge tape also adds weight to the head of your blade. If you don't like it, you don't have to use it either.

This comes from my friend Steve Grant who is a Table Tennis historian and a pretty solid player to boot. I am happy to announce the third issue of Table Tennis History. INSIDE.... A never-before-seen letter written by U.S. champion "Dick Miles, Professional" and an in-depth look at how he made...

I can attest to the fact that you are right. He does. :)

I posted that more to get people to comment but....I am not sure about the D05 as BH rubber thing. Does anyone out there use D05 on FH? How about D09c on BH? Upgraded blade may be fine for you. May not be. Only way to tell is for people to see you playing. Any chance you can upload...

Have you every tried the D05 for FH?

Here: have a look at that video.

Yeah, If you look at the date stamp on the post you are quoting, it is 2015 so almost a decade ago. :) Until Gozo woke this thread up (post #8) all the posts were from Oct 2015.

I kind of agree with Zeio's thought. But I merged them anyway. I am sure it will be fine either way.

Sanded wings looks cool anyway.

I am a shakehand player. I just like filing down the wings till they fit my hand nicely.

I am just curious: do you guys really think this is a big issue? Do the top players seem affected by the things that are prevalent but against the letter of the rules? Yeah, probably they should change the wording of the rules. But when the ball goes behind someone's head for a moment but...

Unless they use a shovel. :)

Yeah, all I did was use Google Translate. I did like that it translated whatever word Khimmi used for blade or racket as Shovel. You do make great shovels.

[edit:] {For anyone who does not understand what NL is saying}: I think, it would be worth people trying to unpack this statement.

:) I think an underlying look at the flaws of the idea of GOAT are worthwhile. Something I have noticed in most conversations about GOAT across sports, players from earlier eras are often overlooked and more recent players are seen to be more GOAT than players of previous eras. One thing...

@cytivrat: your description sounds like an issue where once you were sufficiently warmed up, it went away. Is that correct? @r0b3rt0: is that the case for you? Does it go away after you are warmed up? Or is it continuous? Is it still there after you are warmed up and the whole time you...
