Fixed it for you 😜

Is the picture a portrait of "Den", which you drew to commemorate him?

I might have spoken too soon... 🤣

Oooh... Hina is giving us an actual fight against SYS! Let's gooo!

But, but, but... he has GEWO edge tape!

You don't have any sense of humour, do you? 😜

Edit: Sorry, didn't realize how the format was structured and was raging at the the "draws" :ROFLMAO:

Good to know, and explains why the sheets i bought in 2024 had the thickness notation whereas those i bought in 2025 didn't. Very likely that it had to do with the release of Zyre and its 2.5 and 2.7 sponges... Any idea if the rubbers issued for the pros (white packaging) still have it or not...

Oh, my post had nothing to do with hardness... Just with the thickness labeling, that was there even on commercial (domestic) products until recently. In fact, I'm pretty sure many pros can and do receive harder sponges than what's on the commercial sheets (if they wish so). Then, if the...

To be completely fair, "トクアツ" normally just means "extra thick", which is the standard japanese definition for rubbers with >= 2.0 mm sponge. All japanese manufacturers use this definition, even on their own websites, and you can find it commonly used in japanese stores (both physical and...

I have a feeling zeio is just a super salty human being 🤣

What a win by Han Ying! Fantastic to see her playing at this level!

Triple Double Extra

One out of three parts in Darko's racket corresponds! 🤣

Maybe "English" is a bit of an overstatement... 😜 On a more serious note, I do appreciate the effort on his part: I think it's great to hear impressions/thoughts straight from the players and, having lived in Japan, I know how hard it is for most Japanese people to express themselves in...

About the first part: sure, I agree that Felix's serves are often dubious regarding verticality of the toss. I'm sure that, if this was called more often, he'd have to adjust accordingly (as he does, albeit for just a few points, when he gets called on the specific subject). I fully understand...

This is quite an interesting perspective because, to me, it's mostly the opposite: after the first session with new rubbers I want to try, I'm always thinking of how they don't fit my usual style or stroke and how they let me down when I less expect them to... But after a few more sessions...

Why was it illegal? Is it because of your usual "the server was standing besides the table, therefore it must be illegal" argument, or because the serve was actually breaking a written rule (like the toss being hidden, or not vertical enough, etc.)?

The original Tibhar Evolution series was released in 2013, whereas Fastarc G-1 was released in late 2010 (if my memory is correct). I don't think there is a massive generational difference between them, although the properties and characteristics are definitely distinct between G-1 and, say...

My opinion is that it's very expensive 🙃
