Just posting some interesting news. https://tibhar.info/en/tibhar-x-ma-lin/ Interesting, new Ma Lin blades are coming?...He's active only as a coach though, I wonder what's that philosophy

What the heck is this real? Appears on 3:17. Though whole video is worth watching

This is my main setup currently. B2 without booster works ok, still worse than boosted DHS Skyline 2/H3, it lacks power a little bit, but still spins the ball and is a bit more stable/predictable than boosted DHS. My opponents have much easier time blocking against b2, but this forces me to...

Hi all, table tennis enthusiasts! I want to talk about the Yasaka Ma Lin Extra offensive (yeah, again..). I think the blade is a little outdated for the modern ball. Probably, it's everyone's consensus that for more advanced play it lacks power and support. My experience kinda confirms it...

I've found multiple posts on rednote (xiaohongshu) and videos on bilibili about existense of Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive 'wordless' version (without print on the surface of the blade and with portrait of Ma Lin instead of words in the lens on the handle). Although I am slowly learning, my...

hi everyone! Just wanted to share my thoughts and experiences switching from shakehand to Chinese penhold (CP). First of all, I've been playing CP for around 2 months. General feelings: it's different, but not so much, especially on the FH side. Not much wrist flexibility on the BH, so...

Hi everyone. I was always fascinated with Ma Lin's plays. In this video according to my very very little understanding of Chinese (and the fact that there's 'yeo' in the subtitles) I think Ma Lin talks about how appropriate YEO is for 40+ plastic ball, something about weight of the racket he...

I just tried playing penhold today and really enjoyed it. I think I am pretty knowledgeable in the area of shakehand grip, which fingers to put pressure on, when to relax, when to stiffen the grip, etc. I've found several videos on YouTube explaining different Chinese penhold variations and now...

I was just wondering what equipment these cool players use, have a look at these two vids. Zhou Yu makes a lot of mistakes against this defender... What blade? what rubbers? Second game is even more ridiculous...the handle of the defender guy looks like DHS Long 5/w968/Long3 I assume FH...

Heya everyone. I've been using DHS #15 and Revolution #3 for boosted rubbers. Revolution requires many layers for proper hold of the rubber (it also smells bad :)) I personally think DHS #15 suits it very, very well and is easy to remove. Unfortunately, DHS and Revolution glues are not easily...

Hello, everyone! Sharing my (very brief) thoughts about Nittaku Acoustic with unboosted commercial H3. Anybody still plays with Acoustic and tacky Chinese rubber these days ?

Boy this blade is well balanced. For the record: I also have older version of Timo Boll Spirit and it's too fast for my liking, there's less dwell time/catapult effect/call it whatever - my subjective feeling is that I can do full swing forehand top spin with Yinhe Pro 01 wihtout hesitation...

Hello, TTD :) So I've purchased Nittaku Ludeack 7 ply wooden blade as an upgrade from Nittaku Acoustic (same wooden composition, but 5 ply) and find it amazing in doing loops, controlling the game is just outstanding, etc. But one aspect I don't like at all: blocking. It's more stable when I...

Hello everyone. I've found several posts on this forum regarding the weight of the racket and how it affects the feeling/play and most suggest that the heavier the better feeling/power etc. I have Nittaku Acoustic (85g) and Yinhe V-14 Pro (92gr). I am OK with playing Acoustic, but I don't...
