  1. Stiga Cybershape

    This could be a hard question for you to answer, but do you believe the cybershape would be well suited to short pimples on the forehand for a close to the table aggressive game?
  2. Video Footage Safe Thread

    Thanks for the praise, that indeed is the gameplan!The umpire and my opponent are 2 of the 3 owners of quite a successful business, so it was nice that he was willing to be appreciative even as I played his business partner - the 3rd business partner made some noise that point too! Slow-mo...
  3. Video Footage Safe Thread

    Here's a short (<2 min) clipped HL package from a match against a strong player. He's one of the better loopers in NZ, and has amazing feeling - fortunately kept the former at bay and the latter he struggled to flow with due to the combination rubber. Once again, Rakza PO fh [black] for me [in...

    Thanks for the feedback, it definitely will elicit some changes! It's not the first time I've heard of some of the feedback, but that's excellent. More trained eyes = more impetus to change when fitness allows. The swing size is a new one [it was said when I used MX-P on the FH, but not...

  6. Video Footage Safe Thread

    Thought I'd get some feedback / ideas to train towards, by sharing 1 video a week if there's any interest. This was my second match ever using Short pips [Rakza PO Max FH, inverted BH] against a non-beginner player, after a 1 year injury layoff. Simon was in the top 10 in NZ, and is currently...
  7. Blade choice for combination play

    Combination blades are amazing - even the FH SP, players like Falck and Jia Nan Yuan prove the concept at the highest level. Don't be ashamed, but definitely make sure you find the right combination for you, each combination has its own types of points [esp. with your own limitations] where you...
  8. New Cybershape from STIGA

    I mean, this is a Cybershape thread, yet unfortunately most of the posts are about well made blades from another manufacturer - any opinions on the playability of the wooden version?
  9. Stiga Cybershape for a long pimple chopper/attacker

    Hi Andrea, what are the main adv / disadvantages of the FH SP on the Cybershape specifically vs say a Falck setup?i.e. Ease of Flat hitting vs all types of spins, on both net height and higher balls, looping various spins with the SP, push / controlling game, as well as serve/receive. I'm yet...
  10. Confident when training, but s**t when playing

    Being able to adjust to different variations, different spins, and modulate accordingly - your bat angle, power, brush ...and where you aim [cross court, DTL, mid table] as well as depth... How you start points, how well you receive, how you serve to set up a point against players with their...
  11. What is STIGA Cybershape?

    Did you end up getting to try Cybershape with short Pips? I use Razka PO on the FH, and I am exceptionally interested in how the shape may lend itself to more 'ledges(/corners)' through which to attack/flat, especially given Truls has a perchant for flat hitting / countering - the bat seems to...
