Let us know, how did you proceed?

Hi together, one small update after one more week of testing the rubbers on my current blade Victas Fall FC. It confirmed that I feel a lot better with harder rubbers on both sides. Especially with ones that have linear behavior instead of ones with big catapult effect. So on my forehand I will...

There are already a lot or helpful posts with excellent content where I can add nothing to. for my to children (7 and 9 yo) i go the same way as already mentioned here. we use Allround + blades with small handle and head size. butterfly primorac XXS and Donic Persson Powerallround with small...

I always try to play setups that are not too heavy. my current one is around 177g. victas Fire Fall Fc (85g) , Xiom Vega pro 2.0, Xiom Vega Intro 2.0

@UpSideDownCarl thank you very much for your wonderful post and charing your ideas. I really learned and understood a lot and had some time to think about my situation. in the last weeks I had my last season matches and after that I had time to try out some different blades and rubbers. as...

Thank you everyone for your opinions and comments. Because some of you asked: My current level is around 2000 US Rating I would guess. Or around 1600-1700 in German TTR rating as I am practicing there som time with club mates and compete there.

Hi together, I have a more or less hypothetical question. Our season will be over soon, and then the long summer brake until October starts. What are your thoughts on the following topic? I am thinking about downgrading my rubbers for a period of time in this summer break, i.e. for three...

Yes, the falcima has the exact same composition as Viscaria, without the ALC layer. I have played and used both. In reality the falcima is not slower than the Viscaria when you have same weights. It might have a lower basic speed, but it is much more catapulty than the Viscaria, so for me it...

Luckily, I was table two test a Butterfly Primorac blade this week for two times and around six hours in the training hall. I could use it with my playing rubbers, Yasaka Rakza 7 2.0 on forehand and Rakza 7 soft 1.8 (42,5 deg.) on backhand. The basic idea was to get more control in the game...

Thank you SO much for this wonderful and really helpful post. There are so many helpful points, and I guess I have learned and understood a lot to think in this way @UpSideDownCarl you are absolutely right. do you see it in a similar way as @NextLevel argues? I will give some feedback from...

Thank you all for your opinions und help. as I can see, a step back to a slower 5ply wood can be a good thing, even or especially for an offensive player. I really would love to train and develop my strokes, and I guess that a slower blade can be very helpful for that. Now, coming from a Fire...

I thought my question regarding the Nittaku Acoustic would fit here at best ;)

Hi together, I am looking for a new 5ply wood that is well finished and has a good control. It should support an offensive, two wing looping style. Focus on backhand is control, a lot of blocking, pushing and soft topspin for opening the rallies. Stronger forehand , very good spinny first...

Hey there, would love to hear more thoughts on that :D Anyone using for example a kind of setup like Viscera with more soft rubbers as an offensive attacker? And can compare to an Allround / Off+ 5ply wood like Primorac with medium rubbers?

Thank you for your pleasant and helpful answer. it is both, I want to learn more about equipment and how it behaves. Especially for what kind of player specific equipment could be the best choice. as well specific to me, because at the end of our season I want to try out some new blades or...

Hi everyone, i am very interested in your thoughts on the following topic. We take three different setups. Which setup would you prefer oder recommend for what kind of player? What major differences will these setups have? Regarding speed, control, spin, short short play, and so on? Setups: 1)...

Hi everyone, is anyone playing with Andro Hexer Duro rubbers? Or does anyone have experiences with this rubber? Is it suitable for beginners? or for intermediate and advanced players as well?

Hello everyone, I would like to hear your thoughts and advice on the following situation. I started playing again about a year ago after a break of about 15 years. I'm almost 40 years old now and my level is quite ok (around 1800-1900 US rating, or around 1600 German rating where I train...

Hi together, I am really interested in your general opinion about the following topic: What advantages and disadvantages do rubbers from the generation 2009-2011 have? In general, I mean rubbers like Rakza 7, Donic Baracuda, Vega Pro, Nittaku G1. Compared with modern rubbers like Vega X...

At the moment we want to buy a new Innerforce ALC blade for one of our better students. We have the possibility to buy one of these two: 1) Butterfly Innerforce ALC with 83g around 1320Hz 2) Butterfly Innerforce ALC with 88g Around 1380Hz — I guess, for sure, the 2) will be faster than 1)...
