  1. What year did Hurricane 3 come out?

    Something about this green color makes me cringe…. Cheers L-zr
  4. 1980s Stiga Allround blade - worth reusing ?

    Definitely keep the blade, it’s better quality than the new blades. For playing you can use it or get a new one it doesn’t matter much. About the slowness that can be fixed by using a faster rubber. My guess is that a MarkV will be really slow on that blade and I suggest a Yasaka Rakza 7...
  5. What does Rakza 7 play like?

    Rakza 7 does everything pretty good but is not best at anything. It’s an excellent rubber for beginners up to intermediate players. Even beyond this Cheers L-zr
  6. Is the blade too damaged?

    You are too old to be in the use and throw away generation. 😉 Cheers L-zr
  7. What’s NOT good with Rozena?

    Rozena and Tenergy are not even playing in the same league. Its like comparing a Porsche 911 to a WW Beatle. No way that Rozena is spinnier than T05FX. It doesn't even come close. Cheers L-zr
  8. Is the blade too damaged?

    Fixable as long as the core layer is intact. Depends on how much you like this particular blade. I would fix it regardless. But I would not use the old wood. I would take new wood and cut away the old. Such a small area close to the edge means no real degradation of funcionality. Use any type of...
  9. Why does it seem like I play to the level of my opponent?

    Try teaching Yourself not to care so much if You win or loose... Cheers L-zr
  10. Hammond Z2

    Correct, nothing at all like Mantra. I own 2 identical blades. The reason I abandoned SDC was to try rubbers under identical conditions. Now I have. On one blade I have tenergy05 on FH and tenergy 05FX on backhand. Last week TT11 had Hammond Z2 on sale and I had just read Thomas pong saying...

    Impossible, I’m not getting close to a Mantra anytime soon. Cheers L-zr
  12. Hammond Z2

    I disagree totally, T05 is much more dynamic. With Mantra not much at all happens. If Hammond Z2 is similar it will be dead for me, I will report back in this thread soon. Cheers L-zr

    Hmm, I just got two sheets from TT11 s weekly special last week. Thing is I really hate Stiga Mantra. I really hope this isn’t similar. Cheers L-zr
  14. I Played In A National Tournament; This Is My Diary

    Man the light was really annoying. Is this only on the videos or was it really like this? Cheers L-zr
  15. Spring Sponge vs Spring Sponge X vs ESN Sponge

    You're sure it's not "flubber" ? :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flubber_(film) Cheers L-zr
  16. Will practicing on a 13mm table affect tournament play?

    No it will not… I can not tell the difference except for the sound. The ball makes a bigger difference. Cheers L-zt

  18. Describe your very first feeling after playing with Tenergy

    This can not be correct, T19 usages the exact same sponge as T05. As far as I understand it feels actually softer, but if anything it must be marginal. The hardness I think is less important than the bounciness. I love my T05, but I am planning to try T19 at one time. I have some sheets that are...
  19. Describe your very first feeling after playing with Tenergy

    What is better about it compared to T05? Cheers L-zr
