  1. Does it matter which glue you use for the performance of the rubber?

    Thanks, I didn't know that, just bought it and used it as an alternative because it was cheaper than the DHS one but maybe I have to keep using the DHS one then.
  2. Does it matter which glue you use for the performance of the rubber?

    I mean these two. I don't think that they are forbidden but the Loki one is also called organic: Loki Glue DHS Glue
  3. Does it matter which glue you use for the performance of the rubber?

    Ok, so what's the difference between organic glue and a waterbased glue like from DHS? I have used the waterbased glue from DHS but it's quite expensive here, so I changed to the organic glue from Loki. The rubber feels somehow dead if I'm a bit away from the table. I don't know if it is...
  4. Does it matter which glue you use for the performance of the rubber?

    Hi, there are several glue options to glue a racket. I have currently the waterbased glue from DHS and organic glue from Loki, both purchased on Aliexpress. Also a different glue from a local sport outlet. I'm wondering if it matters what glue to use and does it matter for the performance of...

  7. YuanJian ZhanLu: Another Blade from Lin Gaoyuan's own Brand

    Hi, There is a new blade from Lin Gaoyuan's own Brand YuanJian called ZhanLu, another famous Chinese Sword. It's a inner ALC Blade and currently available on Taobao in China. It's cheaper than the other two Blades from the Brand. Anyone tried it already? How is the quality and how does it...
  8. How to serve in double as a lefty with a right handed partner?

    Hi, Like the titles says, I'm looking for advice how to serve in a double as a left hander. It feels kinda strange to serve from the right side. Normally I try to serve short with a bit of backspin but it's really easy to receive for my opponent and they normally push it back. But if I serve...
  9. Aliexpress Anniversary Sale 2024

    I think about getting either a Stiga DNA Pro m or a Mantra Pro m as a Backhand rubber. Maybe
  10. The blade off Wang Manyu ??

    I think I have read somewhere that the effect of Guang wears off after around 1 and half month of play. Or is it wrong?
  11. Awkward state of boosting

    I don't know. At least in Europe it's still frowned im the lower league to play with boosted rubbers. I specially asked some club mates because I'm also new to this topic and unsure. But yeah, another reason to just legalize boosting because it doesn't make sense why factory boosted being legal...
  12. The blade off Wang Manyu ??

    I have seen mostly butterfly rubber recommendations for the blade. Anyone tested it out with other less expensive rubbers like the Xiom Vega Pro or Xiom Vega X on the FH? I currently have a unboosted H3N on the forehand but I'm afraid it's too slow and I have to substitute it with a Tensor...
  13. Awkward state of boosting

    But they are still boosted. So why not just legalize it? Also during the ITTF World Team Championship Team USA has been disqualified because one of their player high likely boosted his rubber, resulting in the rubber being bigger than acceptable. So personal boosting seems to still happen.
  14. Awkward state of boosting

    And as I understood, VOC has been the reason why speed glueing has been forbidden because of the bad health effects. But this argument doesn't stand anymore with boosters without VOC. It's also like an open secret that Ma Long and other Chinese Players are boosting their rubbers. If ITTF...
  15. Awkward state of boosting

    Hi, I'm currently playing in the amateur league in a European country and boosting is regarded as illegal due to the rules. But as far as I understand many players in Asia and even the top professional players are playing with boosted rubbers. Some rubbers are even not playable if not boosted...
  16. WTT Singapore Smash 2024 3/7-3/17

    I already like this Singapur Smash. So many upsets and interesting parings from the beginning. LGY losing seems to be pretty wild, too. Does Akula have only anti spin rubbers or mixed?
  17. My experience with Chinese rubbers

    Wondering how you would review the H3 Neo provincial since it's literally the benchmark for Chinese Rubbers, disregarding the national version because of the price. But I heard you have to boost it otherwise it becomes dead after a while.
  18. ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals Busan 2024

    Close play. I feel like China should have started WMY since she is more solid against non Chinese players. But would have wished Team Japan the win. They seem to play with so much joy. Nevertheless congrats that China took this one although quite narrowly.
  19. The blade off Wang Manyu ??

    What rubbers do you guys use on the inspira plus? I want to keep it controlled.
  20. WTT Star Contender Doha 2024

    I'm wondering if Ma Long has problems playing left handed players. All latest loses or close games have been against left handed players.
