Sorry to revive an old thread but it seemed better than starting a new one. I'm under the impression the PLC in the MX0X series of blades is meant to closely resemble ZLC than ALC. Been very curious about M101 because I read it's a limba outer so could be a very affordable version of Mizutani...

Is there still some sort of break-in period when you boost Hurricane? Recently boosted a new sheet and clearing the net isn't as easy as before. Or maybe it's because the previous one was 39 and new one is 40.. Boosted with 2 layers of Falco Temp Long. Thanks

When boosting a new sheet of H3 neo with falco temp long, should I be removing the plastic film which protects the topsheet?

Hi guys, sorry to hijack a thread but I didn't think this was worth creating a new one. Has anyone tried regluing boosted rubber? I boosted H3neo with Falco Temp Long and stuck it onto my back up blade and want to stick it onto my main blade as a replacement for my fh. Presumably the booster...

I use Haifu Water Solubility Bond. It's really thin and dries very quickly so it necessitates at least 4 layers on the rubber to be removable. One coat of this adds less than 1 gram.

I agree with the above re personal preference. In my experience, my glue adds 2-3g per side. It could have been less but I use a thin glue so I need to put enough so that it's easy to peel off the residue when I change rubbers.

Second this. Very much interested in trying GA8 or Fastarc G1 as my next forehand rubber. Hopefully someone who has tried both can chime in.

Re Tenergy 64 vs 80, I found 64 to be a bit faster. It's bouncier and more reactive to incoming shots. I found T80 to be much better for my game on the backhand. Re HLV alternative, I think Innerforce ALC is worth exploring due to the similar structure and I am of the impression the handle may...

Can anyone tell me how many grams (approx.) each layer of boosting adds?

Thank you for sharing information and videos of you playing. You're very good. I currently use Hurricane 3 Neo 39 degrees provincial (orange sponge) and want to boost it. I have played H3 for a long time but only now am thinking about boosting. On an earlier post I saw SFF_lib say only put...

Nice to finally have you over! I also finally made the jump to TTD not too long ago. Well...relatively speaking compared to how long I've had a MyTT account, haha.

Perhaps I should have been more clear. I used adhesive sheets when my rubber was nearing the end of its life I.e. a bit of grip but no tackiness at all and the film would restore it. I haven't tried to treat an 'alive' sheet though. I just put my bat in it's case and clean it with natural...

My friend has been playing with a PG7 and we both have big hands and agree the handle is way too small for us. Much smaller than Stiga Master handles for sure. I don't think you'll have much success with another DHS blade since I imagine they standardize their handle sizes. Or at least, much...

I used to use the adhesive Butterfly rubber protection sheets. I found they restored the tackiness of my old H3 which gave it much more life than it had any right to have, haha. Don't know if those impact the characteristics of the rubber in the long run though since many people do not use them...

My apologies if my post sounded accusatory and there's nothing wrong with having more than one set up. I'm just speaking from my own experience as EJ-ing with lotsof different blades has hindered my game more than it helped - both physically and mentally. If you have something you use 80% of the...

I haven't tried too many low throw bh rubbers but one of the ones I have tried is Nittaku Hammond Pro Beta. Here's an edited review I wrote on tabletennisdb with my thoughts on the rubber. HPB is solid backhand rubber with good speed and a low throw angle. It has decent spin, much more spin...

Thanks for the read. I found the article on the whole very agreeable and amusing.

Very nice. Given the reasonable price this may go on my EJ list. I've read a lot of reports however on the handle being very small which is an issue for me because I have fairly big hands. How many cms in diameter does the handle measure at the top and at the bottom? Or rather how does the...

Not surprised Dima overtook ZJK. ZJK has been steadily declining for the longest time and it looks like he's not into table tennis anymore. ...to me anyway. I have my apprehensions but I really hope Miu Hirano and Timo Boll can keep it up.

Thanks for the feedback Suga D. I'll definitely give the 39 a go. Can't wait to slap it on, along with Rozena for when my Carbonado 145 arrives in the mail. I feel like a lot of people play C145 with H3N but they never specify the hardness. I feel like it stands to reason 39 would be the...
