  1. WTT CHAMPIONS MONTPELLIER

    That's harsh of them. Harimoto might be the only player now on FZD level in completeness. Everyone needs to do hard work to even get a shot at them. I fact FZD needs super hard work to be at Harimoto level, so I don't know what these people are smoking. They can send some of it🌚 I doubt any of...
  2. A Person versed of Table Tennis Rules is wanted.

    Actually I'm pretty sure you are not allowed to play in a jacket so that is a default. And the dude's head is too shiny, it blinds everyone. The serve is totally irrelevant. 🙈
  3. Rubber recommendations to replace Friendship 729 Battle 2 National B.S

    I played the Special version and I didn't boost it. It was OK but unboosted nothing that special, I thought it was well factory boosted already - I was wrong. After boosting it's comparable to other blue sponged rubbers but on taobao I saw 42deg version which is not really available anywhere...
  4. Rubber recommendations to replace Friendship 729 Battle 2 National B.S

    For B2 blue alternative I guees the B2 gold version with the purple sponge could be an option. Or you can look at Powerplay-x from Xu Xin. Actially the Pinyi Fengcui is also a great rubber I would recommend it if you can Taobao it. It's cheap but don't let it fool you, it's good. I'm pretty sure...
  5. Xuperman Powerplay-x: A Rubber by Xu Xin

    It was kind of good advertisement for the brand and rubber that Xu Xin and Xu Yingbin played in the Chinese National team finals both using it on forehand side. It really shows how the best sticky Chinese rubbers have pretty good potential, H3 BS shouldn't be the only choice as good players can...
  6. best tt shoe?

    Probably 28, the wave medals are pretty big. I had a wave medal 6 before so if 27.5 is perfect from that then 28 from the Sanwei.
  7. Friendship 729 Battle 2 National vs Friendship 729 Battle 3

    If you like the B2 prov then leave it on. If you remove it and don't like B3 I bet when you glue the B2 back again it will feel bad. And then you will curse you removed in the first place.
  8. best tt shoe?

    It's great on taraflex it's sticking like glue. Bot the Sanwei and the Kawasaki. Btw I'm talking about this Kawasaki: This is also a very grippy shoe, it was my backup since May. And it also works great on all kinds of floors, even on slippery hardwood. What I dislike about this is that it's a...
  9. What happens if ball is wet in a tournament?

    It was with Moregard against Harimoto at 3-3, and quite late in the set too. And Moregard complained. Actually to me the wet mark on his rubber didn't look like a ball imprint, more like a sweat drop from him. It's quite easy to tell which is which, so I found it hilarious that he complained.
  10. Looking for Blade Suggestions (Balanced, Handle-Heavy, Injury Prevention)

    Something with Balsa as core? For older or injured players I usually recommend Yinhe T11, it's around 65-70g damn fast but also has a nice touch. Not saying you need this but something balsa core might be suitable. Could be Balsacarbo X5 etc etc I think the problem with your blade options are...
  11. Friendship 729 Battle 2 National vs Friendship 729 Battle 3

    My national is old but I used it before maybe one time when I didn't fancy it. Seems like it's choosy with the blade or I dunno what I messed up, the boosting could be a culprit too. But I am ordering golden and not Nat. Not because of the price, but I liked golden the most back in the days...
  12. best tt shoe?

    I've been using it for a month now, even in dusty places it's great. Like between the threads there is dust, which I could clean but I don't since the grip is still the same. I play on very slippery hard floors, Butterfly, Mizuno shoes are like ice skating unless you put out a wet rag and use...
  13. Friendship 729 Battle 2 National vs Friendship 729 Battle 3

    I like the boosted nat 40deg now. I somehow boosted it with not much care but it turned out great. I wish it was maybe a hair harder especially on the tophseet side. But I'm not complaining. Well sometimes the extra cost is worth it since with one you are satisfied and with the cheaper ones you...
  14. best tt shoe?

    I always look at the metric sizing, I buy 255mm and from this one it fits just as well as Mizuno 255mm or BTY 255mm.
  15. best tt shoe?

    I have to give the best of props to Speed Art/Sanwei as their Fireflash shoe is amazing. https://sanweisport.com/en/product/accessories/table-tennis-shoes/sanwei-fireflash-table-tennis-shoes/ It looks sick, it feels sick and it performs sick. Before I kept two shoes in my bag, one for wood...
  16. Xuperman rubbers + viscaria

    I tried the Special Edition Powerplay-X and I didn't boost it since it had the glue layer on and I think it was pre-boosted. It felt pretty OK, not amazing but OK. Little bit on the heavy side on a Cybershape. I had the 41 deg and I think if someone gives that a bit more boosting it will become...
  17. The blade off Wang Manyu ??

    Ah yes, I have seen pics being posted of this right around the Olympics. I think it's a nice collection item. It looks very reserved and tasteful. Even just the normal Inspira Plus looks quite nice, but this Olympics version is just that little bit prettier. I don't have a better word to...
  18. Friendship 729 Battle 2 National vs Friendship 729 Battle 3

    The golden is a bit harder and quite a bit faster. I used it for long without boosting and it was fine. If I remember well it comes with 2.15mm sponge not 2.1mm but whatever, not a huge difference. What I clearly remember is that the golden has speed and quite good for impact play, better than...
  19. Friendship 729 Battle 2 National vs Friendship 729 Battle 3

    That's provincial blue then. This is the golden version.
