Market compassion? 🤣 first time I’ve heard that phrase before. The first run was a short run, sold out quite fast in most places. We will see when we get more in stock

I’d look in the 50-55 degree window personally

Bout time you worked on that serve my boy haha

Just in case anyone here missed it on the other thread:

Hiding in plain sight if you do the research on rubber production and supply.

No evidence? I mean, there is plenty of evidence that Joola can produce on exactly the same level as those brands. Absolute evidence 🤣 well we will see what happens with the new rubbers in the marketplace

Haha I do my best 😁 I haven’t done any in a while just because I feel people may not be interested in an opinion they might not consider ‘independent’

They are quite literally Hugo's rubbers, that's why the pricing is set higher, it does cost more to produce rubbers of this level in mass production, but the performance is definitely a big step up from Dynaryz. If you look at rubbers like Tibhar K3 Hybrid, Stiga DNA Hybrid they are also in...

Here are my first impressions for anyone interested :)

Seems like Joola Europe follows them on instagram and so do some of our Joola players

No but i’m also not Joola Europe. Let me do some vetting

No chance this gets through, how can you objectively measure this? Add another line on the table like tennis and pickleball? I would imagine it's a result of the para showcase final at the US Smash where the Italian player used those serves against Ian Seidenfeld in the final. It was definitely...

Yep I agree, the Lebaka’s also moved from 2000-2300 level at a fairly normal pace too. Nishant is now in Germany training but again when we talk about Top 100 WR potential that’s a long long way off. If you take someone like Nikhil, his highest WR I think was about 160. Extremely talented as a...

When I was at lyttc I coached Derek Wang from 950 to 1950 in 10 months, I also had Andrew Song 1100 to 1900 in one year as well. Both lefties I was teaching twice a week. So certainly getting up to that 1900-2000 range is fairly straight forward, the trajectory after that is definitely the most...

It really depends on the environment. Patryk Zyworonek is an outstanding example, although much younger than OP. He broke 2000 at the Arnold in 2019, so he would have been 9 or 10 years old, he was a decent talent in the US, but after he moved to Poland in 2020 his improvement increased a lot...

For reference when Victor Liu was in ITTF Hopes at 11 years of age, he was the top player in his age group in the US at the time and was around 2360 or so (up and down variance with that). Truls was also 11 at the time and was close to 2400.

At 13, for reference, Kanak won the u13, u15, u18 and u21 national championships and lost 11-9 in the 7th in the men's singles to Tim Wang. As far as I recall he went something like 23-1 in matches at that nationals. He was already 2000 before he was 10 I think, and broke 2600 at 13 - after that...

With China it’s more about structure. They aren’t going to help you or give much guidance, but you can practice 6-8 hours a day, 7 days a week there. That infrastructure is not really available in the US and it’s much less expensive in China by comparison. If you go in with the understanding...

Go to China, Japan, Korea or Taiwan, and build your foundations, you can think about Europe later when you need more matchplay experience.

No prob at all, glad to get it resolved!
