  1. Tenergy 05 or 05fx?

    Hi TTD peeps, I feel that my technique has improved and I'm finally going to give the T05 a try on my forehand. I've tended to go mid or mid soft so far (nimbus sound, gewo nexus pro 38, aurus sound etc) so I'm wondering which version of T05 I should try out as I've been told that the normal...

  3. How do you score this point ?

    Hi All, An unusual situation developed in a rally last night, but no-one knew how to score the point from this situation...... Player A is attacking the ball and hitting repeated smashes. Player B is returning the ball repeatedly but one return goes a bit "odd" (maybe a knuckle or handle...
  4. Poly balls : which balls are "approved" by table tennis England?

    Hi all, In our local league rules it's states: "Only table tennis England approved balls shall be used" Does anyone know if such an official approval actually exists or is it literally just a reference to the ITTF equipment list? Many thanks.
  5. Service return advice

    Hi All, I'm looking for a bit of general shot advice, a sort of "go-to" shot until I learn how to deal with it correctly? In my local league I finished with 81% wins over the season so it's time to try the next level up which I am doing next winter season. Of the few games I have played in...
  6. ESN generation

  7. Yinhe E4 and Nittaku Violin

    Hi equipment experts... Has anyone tried the Yinhe E4 and the Nittaku Violin ? I have read some very good things about the violin, but to the price tag is a bit too hefty for me as a local league player. I have read that the E4 is a clone of the violin so I was thinking of giving it a try...

  9. Re-gluing rubbers : when does it become too many times?

    Hi all, So I have this sheet of aurus sound that is on my backup blade/used for testing blades. I've had it maybe 18 months but have probably only used it for about 25- 30 hours in game play or testing. I've moved it maybe 10 or 11 times though. So that's the background...... I purchased a...
  10. Chinese equivalent of Joola 325?

    Hi all, Joola 325 and aurus sound are 2 of my favourite rubbers and I was disappointed to learn recently that Joola is no longer producing the 325. I am unlikely to ever be good if enough to change to anything with much of a harder sponge and I'm fine with that as I enjoy my game play just...

  15. Clone Blades

    Hi All, after a very successful test of 2 Yinhe blades as recommended by users of this site (you know who you are ;)), I am considering trying more (EJ Here I come :eek:). One thing I noticed is that people refer to a lot of Yinhe blades as "Clone" blades and this interested me somewhat. So...

    Hi All, as the title would suggest, I am looking for a new blade to try out.... I started 4 years ago with a Joola Rossi Allround (all class) and used this for 2 seasons. After improving between 10-15% year on year, I decided to step up a little to Joola Wing medium (all + class). Another...

    Hi All, I'm after your advice again....... I have a match coming up where one of the players seems to have anti-spin rubbers... well I say that loosely as his rubbers are probably about 10+ years old and have no grip on them whatsoever !!!! What are the theories of playing with someone who...
  20. Equipment Recommendation - Are you ready for a challenge ????
