  1. Old world ranking points comparable to new ones?

    I noticed that Ma Long is the only player who has surpassed the 3000 point mark with the new point system. How does that compare to the old points? Is Ma Long's 2012 April ranking the highest ever (3006 points)?

  3. Beware the rubbers' topsheet

    Nyyssönen may have some older rubbers. Ittf page says Omega Pro has 79-017 and Omega Asia 79-018. It has no info on 003. I'm not saying it's the right rubber but if it was in Asia package It may be the manufacturers fault. http://www.ittf.com/_front_page/ittf1.asp?category=rubber

  11. Technique - Need Help!

    It's hard to give advice about your arm movement over the internet but couple things I can say about other things.

  18. Joola rhythm... is it as good as tenergy 05 ? Looking to buy it but not sure.

    I recommend Joola Rhyzm as a replacement to t05. I have switched to Rhyzm because it's so inconvinient and expensive to buy butterfly products in Finland. You have to order them online from Sweden. I've been using Rhyzm for 3 weeks now. I feel I can do almost anything with it like tenergy. It's...
  19. Speedglue Vs Tensor Rubber

    I don't think it's the speed glue. I've also played with xiom but without speed glue and still I've had "bubbles" in the rubbers. I think my personal record is breaking 1 xiom in 2 hours of practice. If I try to highlight the exact point it broke I would have to say topspin topspin after warming up.
