  1. What's a good Chinese bh rubber?

    Indeed H8-80 37 is not slow at all. But I still think the H3-50 also has it's place for someone looking for a bit of a speedglued feeling. Especially the 35deg version is rather soft and clicky. I wager just for a non flashy basic BH game the 3-50 is more reliable than the H8-80, the H8-80 is...
  2. Recommended Table Tennis Shoes

    You have a good point but Stiga Liner and Mizuno Wave Drive 6 shoes are made in the same factory, same sole and midsole with different upper parts. But Joola, Tibhar, TSP, Lining (pro), etc brands use the same sole midsole with different upper parts. So why pay the premium for any brand? Why not...
  3. The blade off Wang Manyu ??

    Cybershape is pretty nice on backhand but the Wang Manyu blade is much much better overall. Cybershape has a too skinny handle (FL the front part is very skinny), not particularly fast in my view. I have new Mantra Pro XH and M on the Cybershape and I feel the Cybershape makes more spin by...
  4. New Stiga Mantra Pro

    One more thing which I'm not sure how relevant it is, but Tenergy and Dignics, especially 64, but it is valid for 05 and 80 too, the edges chip off from ball contact. This is not a thing with 09c since that has a thick top sheet nad it's more durable. Mantra Pro, no problem, I still have some...
  5. The blade off Wang Manyu ??

    Just some follow-up as I have been using it more. Today I used it in an official game and I played probably the best for months. Still using the same Mantra Pro M and Mantra Pro XH that my GF got me on taobao for 160RMB each in Aug. Love the rubbers. GF too. I think my BH has improved quite a...
  6. How do i resolve some of my critical errors

    Glad you found it helpful! Look at this absolute scam artist!!! I mean actor!
  7. Good source of insoles for sport shoes

    I think it should be all over EU, maybe different countries have other name?
  8. New Stiga Mantra Pro

    Hey, I actually haven't tried the H, only XH and M. I think I said it before but Pro M is like a boosted G1. XH more like T05H. The good about both is that they are really easy to use. Much more simple than Tenergy, Glayzer and especially Dignics. Some local league players tried them on my...
  9. BH rubber for CPEN

    729 sky-wing? It's a good BH rubber and it's easily available and light. On wechat I see many Chinese still use Stiga Innova Ultra Light for RPB but I have no clue if it's still being made or some 10+ year old "new" stock lol but it's listed on Aliexpress. All the normal H8 2.15mm I measured...
  10. The blade off Wang Manyu ??

    Oh wow, thanks! I put my box into Wechat translate too now and indeed it says Guangdong. Well props to whoever is making them, I wonder if only ~30% of the blades is actually good. Mine is just sooooooo nice... Is this your box? Did you try it?
  11. How do i resolve some of my critical errors

    Hmm, I think LAC is very suitable for it. It's pretty hard. I also do it with H3N now Mantra Pro XH which is like a 40deg H3 hard, for sure it's easier to do with a bit of a bouncier rubber but LAC is very good already. Like I didn't make this video for this purpose but when I do my FH warmup...
  12. How do i resolve some of my critical errors

    Hey, awesome video! Good to see fellow players break a sweat :) I recommend you take some advice from RSM, I mean he's FH GOD and what he's saying applies to shakehand as much as to pen. I'm no coach but I can give my view. In my opinion, you make waaaaay too much arc on your drives. You...
  13. The blade off Wang Manyu ??

    I don't know where the Inspira Plus is made to be honest. Doesn't have the handmade in Sweden logo so I assume also not in Sweden, but the top koto ply is soooo thin that I doubt it's South Korean. Maybe it's Chinese made... Also the ALC they use is blue-black and not the green-black. Well it's...
  14. New Stiga Mantra Pro

    On FH it feels very fast after 2-3 hours to be honest. It's a very impressive blade that Butterfly nor the Koreans could replicate so far. In fact I like Yinhe blades a lot but not even similar...
  15. New Stiga Mantra Pro

    I kinda did: https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/the-blade-off-wang-manyu.27701/post-434230
  16. New Stiga Mantra Pro

    After another month there are more signs of wear on my Mantra Pros, especially on my red (M) side which I used more. But the grip is still pretty much as new. I have intentionally tried M and XH in severely cold conditions aka 15-16deg inside the hall. They are still pretty bouncy even in these...
  17. Anyone tried the new Stiga Mantra Sound?

    I haven't tried this new Mantra Sound rubber but to me it looks like the old red Mantra sponge with possibly the new Mantra Pro topsheet. It could be OK, it could be just a cheap grab to mix the two. The new Mantra Pro topsheet is great and the old Mantra sponge is not bad at all. But I would...
  18. The blade off Wang Manyu ??

    I got mine actually on Friday. I bought it before my girlfriend bought me a Cybershape Truls edition as a Xmas gift so it's a funny coincidence. Actually, I'm not a huge Stiga blade fan if I have to be honest. The only good "modern" blade I tried and played with from Stiga was a Carbonado 290. I...
  19. PSA: Stiga Inspira Hybrid Carbon and Andro Syntheliac VCO OFF seem like close siblings but are not

    Looks pretty same to me. You probably should have gotten the normal Inspira (or DHS H301T tho this is not Stiga) instead if you want something that is like the Cybershape without the hexagon shape. These are like Viscarias.
  20. Advice for changing my forehand rubber

    I think it's rather good. I have some marks on my red sheet from my finger and some oxidation just like how H3 oxidizes over time, but the grip is the same so I'm not bothered. It's not like the new ESN rubbers where once the top coat wears off it's unusable. In fact my teammate who uses T05...
