  1. Stiga quality

    Bought a clipper wood and azalea jttaa version and both splintered the moment I took the rubbers off. It's a Stiga thing, quality of the softer blades, limba for example, is really bad and you need to either sand it and make it smoother and more even the moment you buy it, or use some thin blade...

  3. Why does Dima twindle on smashes?

    It's unlikely they do different boostings to the same rubbers. Back when dima was with Donic he still used tenergy, it's likely they were supplied the rubber in mass to the teams. He wasn't sponsored by them so he didn't get any special treatment, and the rubbers sent by mass would be identical.
  4. Why does Dima twindle on smashes?

    He used to play with tenergy 05 on both sides for years, it's not a habit.
  5. Short pips will produce much more speed than inverted. Why ever so?

    Let me guess, the research was done by a couple of university students that don't even know what table tennis is and how rubbers work. What makes pimples fast is the low dwell time and their reduced affection by spin. Inverted have a higher speed ceiling, by a long shot. Inverted have the...
  6. Why does Dima twindle on smashes?

    Hadn't noticed it before but when he played Panos Gionis he twindled his racket on 3:40 for the smash. I thought he played 09c on both sides, what's up with that?
  7. A light Chinese rubber with a little catapult and decent spin

    I was also looking for low throw control rubber for my bh to replace my bluestorm z3 and @TensorBackhand reccommended me ak47 blue. It's light, soft, low throw and has good playing characteristics. Check it out.
  8. Chinese replacement for Bluestorm?

    Lol, true.
  9. Chinese replacement for Bluestorm?

    I'll go with the ak47, it sounds a bit closer to what I'm looking for. Thanks for the input!
  10. Dignics 09c or H3 neo prov blue sponge for FH?

    Hurricane 3 has a lot more control that d09c. Much better for serve and receive.
  11. Chinese replacement for Bluestorm?

    When you say not even close, how is it different? For speed and catapult I don't really mind, I want throw angle, sensitivity and grip.
  12. Chinese replacement for Bluestorm?

    That's very nice then. I don't mind the speed difference, bluestorm helps me with blocking and countering. Also a focus 3 snipe caught my eye, any experience with that? It has a lot of good reviews but of course no comparisons with bluestorm.
  13. Chinese replacement for Bluestorm?

    How's the weight for AK47 blue? Do you know of moon 12? How is it?
  14. Chinese replacement for Bluestorm?

    I've used Bluestorm Z3 for a few years on my bh periodically and I've grown to love it's playing characteristics and despise it's durability. Is there any cheap Chinese rubber with similar properties, hardness but good durability? (I may or may not have whacked the table on a bh half long...
  15. Loki W81 zl carbon blade sale

    He means the vibration frequency. Bounce a ball on the center of the blade and measure the tone of the sound with a guitar tuner app, it will give you a maximum frequency. It has to do with the hardness and quality/consistency of the wood density.
  16. New blade - Stiga Pure

    Stiga and quality don't go together, except if you're talking for the hardwood series. They have notoriously bad quality control and the quality of the woods they use varies wildly. And the weight varies wildly. Their limba blades like Clipper and Infinity suffer hard from that. Hardwood tends...
  17. *VIDEO* - Please help me decide on a forehand rubber! 🙏

    No boost, it's better it it's completely linear in power. I'd say get the DHS Hurricane 3 NEO in 2.15mm and 39° sponge hardness. The general/commercial version that costs 25€. It's cheap so even if you don't like it you won't have lost much. Just give it a few practice sessions, it gets...
  18. What is the technical reason Ma Long and top pros love W968?

    Because he likes it. He's been playing with it for years, it has a ton of speed when carbon activates, bundles of control and consistency, and he doesn't see a reason to change.
  19. *VIDEO* - Please help me decide on a forehand rubber! 🙏

    Hurricane is proven, tried and true. It's slow and easy to control. The others need professional touch for defense. T05 is really tough for someone that's not a professional to chop with consistently.
  20. *VIDEO* - Please help me decide on a forehand rubber! 🙏

    Yeah, joo used tenergy. 15 years ago. Now he plays with blue sponge hurricane 3. What's your point? The game changed and equipment preference changed with it. Joo's racket from when he played with Bobrow. @ridderz65 You have the physical strength, I still think hurricane is your best bet. Joo...
