I have astigmatism and the venues in our leagues generally have very bright lights. Although I wear glasses they only help my astigmatism when looking in one direction and I'm having problems with starbursts. When practising lately I have been holding my non-playing hand over my eyes as a shield...

Would be glad of any recommendations for a forehand rubber which would be a good match for my Yasaka Sweden Extra blade and my BH Xiom Vega Europe. Looking to try something which is a bit harder but still relatively light. I currently have Xiom Vega Europe 2.0 on both sides but although I use a...

I normally play with a Yasaka Sweden Extra blade but have bought a Yinhe T-11+ carbon balsa blade to try. I have some spare rubber to put on the blade which is Yasaka Rakza, Yasaka Rakza Soft and Xiom Vega Europe. From these 3 rubbers which would be the most suitable for using on the forehand...

Looking for suggestions for a light blade which will go well with Yasaka Rakza 7 and Yasaka Raksa 7 Soft rubber.

I'm getting to the stage where I need to renew the rubber on my blade. I'm using a Yasaka Sweden Extra blade which I like and am trying to decide between Xiom Vega Europe and Yasaka Raksa 7 Soft. Can anybody familiar with these 2 rubbers please tell me the likely differences in performance...

Which type of blade (not heavy) is a good match to go with light, soft rubber plus any particular recommendations.

Does anybody have a recommendation for a sports or table tennis shoe which can be used to avoid a recurrance of sciatica?

I'm currently playing with TSP Ventus Soft 2.0 mm on one side and Tibhar Aurus Soft 1.9 mm on the other side of a Yasaka Sweden Extra blade. I play with a lot of spin and love these rubbers. However, I would be happy with either of then on the backhand side but am finding they are a little short...

Further to reading a lot of analysis on here and various recommendations, I'm thinking of buying a Yasaka Sweden Extra blad with Xiom Vega Europe rubber on both sides. Does anybody know the cheapest place to buy this setup for a UK person obviously bearing in mind any postage charges and...

I have 2 blades which have identical rubber on each (Geospin Tacky on 1 side and Tenergy 05 FX on the other). The blades were exactly the same price and both are Allround with Speed and Control stats shown as identical Speed=60, Control=80. The blades are Joola Rosskopf Allround and Tibhar...

1. TSP Ventus Soft 2. TSP Ventus Spin 3. TSP Agrit 4. Tibhar Aurus Sound 5. Tibhar Aurus Soft Even if anybody has used 2 of these rubbers it would be nice to know which of the 2 is less sensitive to incoming spin.

Looking for recommendations based on the following:- Light non-tacky rubber with soft sponge and sparse pimple structure. Preferably rubbers that are reasonably durable.

I've now practised for a few weeks with 2 year old Tenergy 05 FX rubber given to me to try by a player at my club who has just replaced it. I've found that I really like this rubber. The downside is that it is very expensive so I'm wondering if there is anything that feels and plays pretty...

I usually buy rubber from Bribar and they tell me that the ratings they publish are based on testing the rubbers (which would seem an awful lot of testing!). However, when I compare the Bribar ratings with those on the table tennis database I find huge inconsistencies. For example, when I look...

I have played with 2.0 Geospin Tacky for 2 years and like it but would like to play with something a bit faster on the forehand. The reason I like Geospin Tacky is the control and feel of the ball on the bat. I recently bought a couple of other rubbers to try as an alternative for my forehand...

I started playing again 2 years ago after a long break and initially was using Geospin Tacky. I also tried Sun MaxTense rubber but much preferred the control I got with Geospin. I'm very happy with using Geospin Tacky on my backhand as I normally hit or block topspin but push chop. However, I'm...
