Hello, I've been given the opportunity to boost 2 of my rubbers with falco booster, the green one. I used 2 layers on bare sponge and after a night they've both curled up like crazy, and they're not even completely dry yet. I've only had experience boosting with baby oil so far and this is far...

I just found this rubber on Aliexpress when browsing. It's registered on the larc but has rounded pips. Any idea what this thing is? Would it give any advantage? I've never seen such a thing before, any thoughts? https://a.aliexpress.com/_EGN2BLQ

Hello, haven't posted in a while but a friend gave me his turbo blue recently. It's in fairly good condition, he played it only 2 times or so. I haven't really used this specific version. What's your opinion on this? What blade have you felt it's played well on? Currently I can chose to put it...

I'm looking into these two blades. Has anyone tried either, and can they compare it to a viscaria? Any major differences, feeling, speed, ease of use, etc? Thanks.

I applied some baby oil to expand the rubber evenly but it pooled up at the center after a couple of minutes, even though the rubber had a natural dome. It's hard to see by the pictures, but from that line and to the center the rubber is thicker. Has this ever happened to anyone else? If yes...

So after a bit of back and forth with chat gpt, it concluded on this recipe for a booster. What's your thoughts? I think it sounds promising. --- DIY Long-Lasting Table Tennis Rubber Booster Duration: approximately 4 to 6 months of boosted effect Ingredients (for about 100 ml total...

I don't know if anyone else has posted it, so I apologise if they have. On Butterfly's global website, on Harimoto's and Lin Jun Yu's pages they say that they will release info about the rubber late August. I don't even wanna think about the price...

Are these any good? Is quality control decent? https://a.aliexpress.com/_EyW4TMq https://a.aliexpress.com/_EHt1nZs

Hello! I recently got a spinlord waran from a friend and slapped it on my old intensity nct. For the forehand I put on a slightly used vega europe, max. (edit: my bad, it's 2.0mm) The problem is that I find it lacks grip, I'm used to bluestorm pro now and this is kind of unbearable. Another...

So I have been playing with viscaria for some time, my coach has been using the ovcharov alc and a friend wants to try the harimoto alc. How does the harimoto compare to the other 2? Weight distribution and speed? From what I've seen with the viscaria and the ovcharov alc, I think the ovcharov...

I'm doing some research on the topic and I'd like to hear what exercises have worked on you as individual players on our level. Articles are good and all, but most are focused around national level players. 2 areas I'm especially interested in, close lateral movement, and change in legs...

I've just about had it with the splintering. I tried to remove a few rubbers and the splintering with limba is insane, I ruined a perfectly good azalea off, 2 clippers and a few donic limba outer blades. Wtf is up with limba? I've tried just about everything. I don't have these problems with any...

I've always had a weak bh game, mainly the topspin. I can't get the feeling of gripping like I do on my fh, my strategy was always to block and punch but now that I'm playing on a higher level it's a huge weakness and it's being constantly exploited. The only way I can do a topspin is by...

My friend changed from this target national to hurricane 3 but the sponge came apart and he gave it to me. I've cleaned the pip side as best I could and it looks pretty good. I've found a Japanese sponge, so does anyone know how to attach it properly with what kind of glue? Thanks!

What do you guys generally prefer? From my experience Battle tends to be more tacky nowadays, and also much cheaper. Their soft versions are quite interesting too, Hurricane 3 in 37 degrees seems to be the defacto chinese bh rubber. How come Battle 2 soft doesn't have more traction?

Hey, I've been thinking of trying short pips for a while now but I don't know much about them. I'm looking for something that does everything decently. Easy blocking on the table, chopping from mid distance, and to easily play drives on the table. The drive part is why I'm not going for long...

I'm looking to try out a European Korbel but I'm kinda worried it may be too headheavy because I read it has a longer head, unless it's not true. I'm putting on it a Battle 2 gold and friendship 802, does anyone have experience with it? Is it fine with heavier rubbers or is it a wrist snapper...

Hadn't noticed it before but when he played Panos Gionis he twindled his racket on 3:40 for the smash. I thought he played 09c on both sides, what's up with that?

I've used Bluestorm Z3 for a few years on my bh periodically and I've grown to love it's playing characteristics and despise it's durability. Is there any cheap Chinese rubber with similar properties, hardness but good durability? (I may or may not have whacked the table on a bh half long...

A friend bought an old stock P1R but he's playing in official league and tournaments. Is it still approved for competition or only Victas P1V is legal?
