Did you try some outer blades with e.g. basalt or glass fiber? KTS Foundation GF.K (koto, glass fiber, ayous, kiri) but also their Foundation ALC is slower than most other ALC blades 1), Loki Rxton 5 Pro Outer (koto, basalt carbon, ayous, kiri) or Loki Rxton 9 Pro Outer (koto, basalt GNF...

Hit harder. That's what I try to do ;) When you happen to have to play with any kind of orange balls regardless the manufacturer in such conditions and your game somewhat relies on variation just start ranting or replace the balls or color some white balls or just relax and get a beer ;) scnr

I've yet to see any "cheap" blade with such a manufacturing defect... (and there are some blades missing that are in use or sold e.g. 2x Loki Telson Speed, Donic Baum Esprit, Yinhe V14 Pro etc.)

ITTF finally requires a friction test and puts the tables in three ranges based on the coefficient of friction (I has the lowest CoF, III the highest) 1) (that's not the type shown in the list on https://equipment.ittf.com/#/equipment/tables one has to click on each table to see the friction...

60 hours is not bad. If one is using it for say 3 hours a week we are talking about 20 weeks or 5 months. If these 3 hours are multiball and drills with hard hitting then it will certainly not last that long (all rubbers suffer from such usage). If these 3 hours are say casual matches then it...

Issues I had with G1 (had it on BH but this also applies for FH): requires sponge i.e. relying on the topsheet alone as one can with H3 does not work, and it behaved not very predictable with low inputs i.e. short game, flicks (a bit different angle or slightly too much/less input and the...

https://carboncalculator.dhl.com Well to Wheel around 6 kg CO2 from Beijing to Cologne for a 1kg parcel going by plane. That's around 25 km to 42 km (16 to 26 miles) by car depending on fuel/electricity mix including battery production and so on (well to wheel). No TT stores in that distance...

You are lucky that they don't charge for shipping otherwise the bill could look afair like this: goods = 100 €, import VAT = 19%, shipping 10€, tariff 2%, shipping in the EU = 5€ customs value = goods + shipping = 100€ + 10€ = 110€ amount of duty = customs value * 2% = 2.2€ import vat value =...

This version? At least my red ones (37 and 38) I got from https://aliexpress.com/item/1005009239802728.html all had a glue layer.

Thanks! Did a bit of searching and found it on DHS-729 (@harty) too https://www.dhs-729.eu/gb/rubbers/48-992-dhs-hurricane-3-neo-40-provincial-blue-sponge.html#/26-colour-black/27-thickness-21_mm/39-hardness-h38

Dignics 05 vs Vega X? I'm also distracted. Football (soccer) ;)

Where did you get H3N 38 BS? Could be interesting when we have to play league matches in cold conditions. I don't know how the 38 BS will react to booster but 38 OS did not become to soft or mushy when using two layers. 37 OS easily becomes to soft and mushy when boosted. H8-80: depends on the...

They have websites but most of the communication/marketing is done afaik via WeChat, Weibo, Xiaohongshu, Bilibili, Douyin. TMall, JD, Taobao, Dongku (dku51.com) etc. 729: http://www.729sports.com/ 2025 catalogue http://www.729sports.com/729picdetails.html?isPreview=true Anti-counterfeit code...

I would put it differently: any government, any society, any company that is run by incompetent leaders is doomed to fail. And thus, the ultimate question remains: how do we prevent incompetency from reaching the top?

Hmm... maybe some cleaner issue or something wrong with the protective sheets if you use these? I don't know... Too fast ;) At least on FH. On BH still slow enough for a good short game and I would say better suited for the modern BH to BH kick/rip short stroke exchanges than for larger...

Maybe a booster issue? I'm still using boosted Rxton 7 National on BH on one racket + H3N BS Provincial but for me the Rxton 7 started to slip much earlier. Booster: Seamoon 2, two thin layers initially, enough to create a nice dome/semicircle but did the third reboost some weeks ago with baby...

The funny thing is that in the 38 mm era everyone seeing a beginner with a speed glued Sriver would have called that "ridiculously ambitious" even on a slow 5-ply all-wood blade and now we are suggesting pre-tensioned (built-in speed glue effect) rubbers to beginners... Sponge hardness...
