  1. Black friday deal on TT robot

    @pongbotstore I am in fact going to go with the pongbot, I wanted to share a post (i made this post on the reddit thread as well), someone gave a very nice breakdown of why they prefer the pongbot, and I thought you should hear it/have talking points for future inquiries. "I have to mention...
  2. Black friday deal on TT robot

    Not to blunt at all! That's kind of what I was asking the forum really, is if the cheaper zxmoto is worth the savings, or if I should just jump up to the 300-500 range like the pongbot or suz s201. I know pongbotstore is probably going to be a little biased, just figured I'd see if anyone has...
  3. Black friday deal on TT robot

    Hey guys, I'm thinking about getting a TT robot for christmas for myself. The MOST my budget would be is <$500, there's a low end tt robot on amazon right now for 175 + a net, the 'zxmoto ping pong robot machine with 36 different spin balls'. is the low end zxmoto worth getting? does anyone know...
  4. Planning ahead.... (future setups)

    close to table for sure, but maybe an all rounder would be better for growth.
  5. Planning ahead.... (future setups)

    the ak47 is for backhand? how does the blue sponge compare to black? the skyline 2 neo has served me well, but i've read you shouldn't really use chinese rubbers without boosting
  6. Planning ahead.... (future setups)

    the choices I made originally, were based on advice in a thread here, but they were selected because they were on sale :P I don't really know much about the differences in rubbers, I do like the h3 neo, but im open to similar alternatives, the mantra i didn't feel like I got much benefit from...
  7. Planning ahead.... (future setups)

    So about 8 months ago I made a post asking for advice on my first custom. I play RPB style, in the end I ended up buying the ma lin extra offensive, with a skyline 2 neo black fh, and a mantra pro xh. I didn't boost at the time, because I didn't understand much about it (referring to the...
  8. Trying to buy my first blade...

    You guys have been so awesome! I can't thank you enough! In the end I went with the ma lin xtra special skyline 2 mantra pro xh (and some nittaku balls, cleaner, protector, case etc) You guys rock! I'm going on vacation for 2 weeks, so I won't be able to post using it until then, but I will def...
  9. Trying to buy my first blade...

    I have the cleaner and protector already in the cart! Is the sponge really that necessary? could I not use a regular sponge or magic erase bar? I'm going to go with the mantra, a little extra, but I do tend to play more from the wrist than broad strokes.
  10. Trying to buy my first blade...

    Thank you so much btw, I've got it down to the ma lin special with the skyline, now i just have to decide between the hurricane or the mantra, hurricane is cheaper though, which do you think is more beginner friendly? Can I do the mantra hx with the skyline 2 instead of neo? (my next post will...
  11. Trying to buy my first blade...

    Odd question. Can the rubbers have different thickness or does it have to match? I had already checked the mantra and hurricane 3 and they don't have either in 2mm red
  12. Trying to buy my first blade...

    Am I correct or confused in thinking I could run the skyline 2 with the hurricane 3 or mantra xh? Your explanation sounds right up my alley.
  13. Trying to buy my first blade...

    Right now I'm looking at ma lin extra special Skyline 2 black And I'm thinking maybe the Vega intro instead of the euro hybrid?
  14. Trying to buy my first blade...

    So, I feel like my BH is MUCH MUCH MUCH stronger than my FH. What would you recommend to go with the skyline 2 with a weaker FH than BH? (I plan to work on my weaker areas not just focus on my stronger ones)
  15. Trying to buy my first blade...

    As it stands right now I'm looking to go with Ma Lin extra special With the DHS skyline and Vega Europe hybrid mentioned earlier in post, any final thoughts on adjustments?
  16. Trying to buy my first blade...

    What do you mean by dead? I think the reason behind the hard rubber is it will force me to learn more proper technique since it will punish bad technique, if I kept the xiom vega what would you recommend on the other side? (The setup he picked was exclusively using tabletennis11 weekly sales)
  17. Trying to buy my first blade...

    does everyone else agree with this set up? I have it in the cart, only change i made is 1 set of balls, and then a rubber protector and some cleaner :)
  18. Trying to buy my first blade...

    what do you guys think about the YEO? is it too much of a blade for starting? Where can I get the fextra 7? alie express? I'm willing to spend (a total) of about 100-120 if increased price makes a difference over ali blades, if it's really the same I don't mind going cheaper (I just know paddle...
  19. Trying to buy my first blade...

    can you recommend any soft rubbers that would be good for a basic all rounder rph blade?
  20. Trying to buy my first blade...

    I'm not in a TT club, but I go a community center that has a ping pong "group" the problem is no one plays rph so I don't have a lot of opportunities to try different things. That's why I'm just looking for a safe general rph blade/rubbers
