  1. What made you switch to pips out rubber?

    Great responses! I tend to play away from the table, which might not be a good fit for swithing to pips out.
  2. What made you switch to pips out rubber?

    Thanks. Good points! I also like to chop from the distance even though I havent practiced it alot. There is the aspect of distraction and forced errors with the pips out rubbers which can cause damage especially to beginner - intermediate players in competitions. This is what I meant as a...
  3. What made you switch to pips out rubber?

    So... I have been thinking about switching to pips out rubber on my backhand. My main reason for doing this is that I find it very hard to learn a good, solid backhand top spin attack shot. I can block ok and flic decently, but for attacking with good top spin far from the table... too...
  4. STIGA Genesis Soft & Medium Rubber Review

    Great review guys! Pretty much in line with my personal experiences. I have been playing with M on fh with both 2,0mm and 2,2mm and 2,0 S on bh. This review inspired me to get 2,2mm S to my fh, lets see how it feels. :) P.S. Don't be afraid to get the max 2,2mm for fh. Suprisingly small...

  6. Tibhar Evolution EL-S and FX-S

    I have changed my mind about these rubbers. The reason is that I tried these on a Yasaka Ma Lin Carbon blade compared to the all-around blade I tried the before. HUGE DIFFERENCE! Now these rubbers started to shine and work really well, because of the added speed of the blade. I still think I...
  7. Review of the STIGA Genesis Rubber

    ^ No complaints so far and I have been playing with these about two months, ~2 times per week on average.
  8. Review of the STIGA Genesis Rubber

    These are EXCELLENT rubbers! I have played both 2,2mm and 2,0 M on FH and 2,0 S on BH with two different ALL+ blades and I like them a lot. The M rubber is harder than any other rubber I have played with. The rubbers are VERY tacky and in my experience generate A LOT of spin - totally comparable...
  9. Tibhar Evolution EL-S and FX-S

    I am going to sell my EL-S & FX-S combo. The main reason is that my opponent tells me my shots are weaker in power and spin compared to Stiga Genesis. Anybody interested in this combo, both in 2,1mm and on Yasaka Classic Sweden blade? ;)
  10. Tibhar Evolution EL-S and FX-S

    I played a bit more with the EL-S and FX-S combo mentioned in my previous post. They are good rubbers, but I still can't feel anything special with them. I actually prefer to play with the new Stiga Genesis rubbers, 2,2mm M on fh and 2,0mm S on bh on a Yasaka ALL+ blade. The Genesis M rubber is...
  11. table tennis for wussies?

    One can sweat A LOT in TT, but physically it's nowhere near other sports like badminton, tennis or basketball for that matter. But who cares?! :)

  13. Rio Olympics 2016 (Singles Event)

    I highly recommend trying a VPN for your smartphone / tablet. You can try for example PIA VPN and F-Secure Freedome typically for 14-30 days for free. Just select a country that shows the streams and you are set. For example Finland and the Finnish National Broadcast agency YLE shows ALL the Rio...
  14. Tibhar Evolution EL-S and FX-S

    Played my first quick practice game today with 2,1mm EL-S on fh and 2,1mm FX-S on bh, Yasaka Sweden Classic blade. I liked them a lot! I had previously MX-P and FX-P, both 1,9mm and this combo felt quite the same, but obivously little faster due to thicker rubbers. Nothing dramatically...

    I don't know, let's call it 15€ and if it's more it's on me? :)
  16. FS: Tenergy 05 & 05 FX on Stiga Infinity VPS V

    Too much for me I guess. :) I am an beginner / intermediary and I just can't seem to keep the ball on the table with this combo. I can always buy these back later when I'm better :)
  17. FS: Tenergy 05 & 05 FX on Stiga Infinity VPS V

    For sale a great combo: Stiga Infinity VPS V which has Tenergy 05 1,9mm on FH and 05 FX 1,9mm on BH. Rubbers have been glued two weeks ago and I have played with them only two times!
