  1. Which rubber would be the spinniest?

    Hello everyone! I would like to ask for your help! I am thinking of buying a table tennis rubbers available in a green color! My question would be, which one of these rubbers is the spinniest? No regards for the thickness, but if your measurements and experiences wishes to have so, please...
  2. Will these wrinkles and dents affect the performance of my rubber?

    Hello! I have my brand new Dignics09C put on my brand new blade, but something is not right. The first time I glued my rubber to the blade and after I had removed the sticky protection film, I realized there are wrinkles, waves and dents on the rubber. Though it did not feel to affect...
  3. Is the Clipper actually stiff?

    I am currently using an Innerforce Layer ALC with Dignics09C on the forehand. Is the Clipper faster and stiffer than the Innerforce Layer ALC? I am curious about everything when it comes to creating spin? Is the Clipper suitable for spinny servers, openups, loops and basically spin-oriented...
  4. Dignics09C on Cybershape Carbon?

    How would the Dignics09C play on a Cybershape Carbon? As far as I know, the Dignics09C is a rather hard rubber, so might be suitable for softer or flexier blades. The Cybershape Carbon is a hard and stiff carbon blade, so making spin is not the easiest. But it might be setup suitable for spinny...
  5. How do you boost your Hurricane 3 Neo?

    I am about to try Hurricane 3 Neo on both forehand and backhand and for this purpose I think I may want to learn to boost to have a little extra zing to my shots. But I have a problem, as many sources I find, as many routines they do. My question is, what routine do you have when it comes to...
  6. Hurricane 3 Neo loses tackiness during gameplay

    I have bought a DHS Hurricane 3 Neo Commercial in 39 degrees hardness. Not tackier than my Rakza Z. Before gameplay, it is somewhat tacky, but after 5 minutes of playing, it completely disappears, but after gameplay and cleaning it returns. My question is, how is it possible that my H3Neo's...
  7. DHS Hurricane 3 Neo. How durable it is and how does it play in humid/wet conditions?

    I am thinking of trying this rubber out for forehand. Seems spinny. How durable it is and how does it play in wet and humid conditions, as during summer it is a regular circumstance in my training. I am planning to use it 3-4 times a week, each session around 2 hours. Should I buy the 39° or 41°...
  8. Does the Dignics09C worth it?

    I am currently playing with the Rakza Z on the forehand, but I am thinking of trying the Dignics09C for the forehand sometimes. I am wondering if the doubled price actually worth it? Would I get a noticable extra spin/speed? How different would it be? Any other experiences or tips? Do you think...
  9. Does Xiom still produce the Ice Cream AZXi blade?

    Recently I have come across this series of blades and I am really interested in trying out the Xiom Ice Cream AZXi sometimes. I saw the AZXi is currently unavailable and would like to know if it is only temporary or is discontinued. I also saw the same blade with a "Pro" in its name. I am...
  10. Rakza Z vs Baracuda

    These two rubbers are the ones I like the most. However I am a little confused about which one should I pick. People who have used both! Which do you think would be better in the long term regarding spin? I'm pretty much sure Baracuda would be faster, thus Rakza Z would be more controlled. But...
  11. Can you "quick-clean" your hybrid rubber with your breath and palms?

    Is it okay to remove the dust from a hybird rubber with the help of the breath and palm during a game? Will it help retain the grip and/or tack or will it deteriorate it someway? Thanks!
  12. What's wrong?

    I have started playing with Rakza Z on both forehand and backhand. On the forehand the rubber is a little over a month in age. The grip and tack is still there as far as I can feel and tell, but I still experience some slippage when I try to topspin. So far I have experienced even when the ball...
  13. Is the Donic Baracuda the same as it was in the beginning (2009/2010)?

    I love this rubber pretty much because of its very handy and convenient properties (you know I'm talking about the spin here). I was a bit skeptical to try it out mainly because of being designed for the celluloid ball, but a review and my experiences showed me that it is good for the plastic...
  14. Does sweat getting into the handle of the blade really increases its weight?

    Somewhere I've read that if you hand is sweaty and the sweat getting into or leaking into the handle of the blade increase its weight overall, up to 3-4-5 grams year... Is that true? If it is, will it be a problem sometime in the future and is there anything I can do not to have this happened...
  15. Which blade breaks easier, the flexible or the stiff?

    I'm curious if a more stiff or a more flexible blade would break easier... for example if one accidentally hit the table.
  16. Does doing pushups have any advantage on playing?

    I'm curious if the pushup has any advantage or disadvantage on the playing. Will my hits be faster and stronger? Will I move faster or slower? Anything you have information about. Apart from that, I'm curious what exercies should I consider to do to develop my physical strength might come in...
  17. Are 5-ply wood blades more flexible than 7-ply (inner) carbon blades?

    I have always wondered if 5-ply woods are better for spin and control kind of game? I'm pretty sure carbon blades are much faster and more powerful, but that is something I'm not really interested in. For the past few months I've been playing with an innercarbon blade (Innerforce Layer ALC). It...
  18. Those using/used Baracuda, how durable is/was that for you?

    I'm curious about how durable can my Blue Baracuda be. I'm expecting at least 2 months, that would be satisfactory for me. I train two times a week at my club (2 x 2,5 hours). I usually have trainings outside my club too, they are around 2-3 hours per week. So a total of 8-10 hours of training...
  19. Why were the rubbers black and red in the first place?

    I know that the black rubbers were black because the rubber they were made from were naturally/originally black, but why was the other color specifically the red? It could have been blue, yellow, green or anything else... like the color we have today? What was the reason behind having these two...
  20. Any experience about the Butterfly Super Anti 1,9 mm?

    If I recall correctly, there was a 2,0 mm version of the anti, but since then I could only manage to found the 1,9 mm. I've read that the 2,0 mm was quite good, thus interested if the 1,9 mm version works good aswell. If you have anything related to this rubber (blocking, hitting, chopping...
