Also, 301 is a must try for a penholder. This blade is just pure bliss for this grip. But i would not advice to put random tensor rubbers on 301 as some of them play nicely but some plays like shit and it's really hard to predict before you test the exact pair. For example, 09c on N301 was the...

Butterfly makes the best drugs on the market. There are pretty much no rubbers that play really close to Tenergy, Dignics or Zyre. Butterfly rubbers are an addiction if they really suite your taste. For me it's the opposite, my first backhand rubber was 05-fx, than i played 09c for a long time...

I sanded my D05 for penhold and it became so much better, it was impossible to play without sanding, my fingers just slipped all over the place

I'm not from the USA, but can relate to it quite a lot. I like to train in TT, but i hate playing in any tournaments. Because i have 2 options: play fun and interesting active table tennis and lose, or just put the ball on the table and win. In tournaments your biggest problem are not other...

For me it looks like your ball toss is quite inconsistent, i find it quite hard to do strong serves when i don't feel enough consistency in my toss. I think you can really improve in this aspect and your contact would be more reliable and stable, therefore it would be easier to improve quality...

Absolutely not. I played with Visc, Dynasty and N301 in penhold and Dynasty is not in the middle. I had the same problem with Visc as you, but Dynasty feels more like an inner blade even compared even to N301 which IS an inner blade. Dynasty is really soft and woody, the carbon activates only...

If you don't mind chinese rubbers on forehand i can recommend to try Powerplay-X, it plays really well on an inner-koto blades. But I really don't like how 09c playes on really flexible blades as 301. It has low catapult on soft strokes so the energy get transfered through the rubber and into...

Why you think you can't be serious about your hobby? You are not a professional, so you do this activity for fun, so this by defenition is a hobby. But you can take it pretty seriously. For example train regularly, do physical conditioning, going on a diet for better performance, etc.

I think your best bet would be N301. In my opinion the best blade for Cpen mid distance looping. You can find my review on TTD. 8-80 plays extremely well on backhand with this blade, as you are already familiar with this rubber i would probably not change it. For forehand you can try a lot of...

I agree with this, it is logical. But if we talk by the book his racket is still illegal. Because rubber was physically altered. But if passed racket controll. And even if it's logical it doesn't make any sense why the rules are written this way.

It's really funny that a "good person" is the most agressive and verbally assaulty one in the discussion. Don't weaponize "goodness" and moral as superiorities as they are DEEPLY FUCKING SUBJECTIVE matters. I can't really comprehend how you live in the real world with such a views, your way of...

This is the kind of information that i think absolutely should be publically available. It's just a consumer right to know what goes into the product that is directly touching your hands on prolonged basis, as it can get on your mucose membrane pretty easily from your palms and fingers and, if...

Great, glad to hear that. It was the same thing for me, strenghtening the wrists and utilizing the body more makes it much easier to manage weight of the setup.

Did you solve the problem with weight of your setup? I remember you made a post about it.

We got Igor AI slop before GTA 6. This timeline is cooked.

I hate how we know pretty much nothing about what exactly booster contains. I think it should be legalized but controlled - both factory and individual boosting. It would benefit every party without bringing any real downsides if done with propper methods. This way there would be near zero...

I also play penhold and feel much more comfortable from mid distance. Penhold strokes require more space and time to perfrom with power, so i build my strategy over the idea of "we need to force mid distance". It's both my natural tendency and preference. With penhold i find MUCH more sucess in...

I think firstly we need to know if you want to continue using tensor/eurohybrid backhand or want to try sticky/chinese hybrid?

You can buy all five to test and determine what kind of rubbers you like more. So you can make better decisions with next rubbers on your main blade.

I can recomend to try Yasaka Atletico Speed. Even though it is a visc clone they're nothing alike. Atletico speed has consistent medium-low throw on all gears, also the balance is much better for my taste, commercial visc feels too light in the head. Also it cost only about 70$ on Ali and...
