  1. Rhyzen ICE and Rhyzen CMD

    Haven’t tried the CMD but have tried the Fire and Ice from Joola. Very underrated rubbers I think. Decent spin and great control.
  2. Using D05 for a week, it too fast and hard to control... how to use it ?

    Exactly - personally I think its very fine nuances. And impossible to know really. Unless you actually know Timo 🙃 Its funny, hes saying you only need a bit on the blade, whilst putting so much on it looks like he's decorating a wall!
  3. Using D05 for a week, it too fast and hard to control... how to use it ?

    Intrestingly Iba Diaw posted a gluing video - in the comments section he replies to someone talking about his rubbers. He replies saying "Can you buy the same racket as Djokovic or the same club as Tiger Woods ?" https://youtu.be/wiZm_DfdBq4?si=CFfCgfrz1UNk2dD4 A couple of things. though: Is...

    Amazing - I've played Geoff before, top player. I was lucky to take a set or two off him.
  5. Got a racket from Anders Lind

    Yeah hes super nice - at the Manchester feeder he was the pro that spend the most time in the fanzone, playing against people, using the VR headsets and chatting to anybody who approached him. Always look out for his results now
  6. Got a racket from Anders Lind

    i doubt it would be speed glued as his racket would be tested. But i imagine the rubber would be special for him from Donic so wont be the same as off the shelf. Prob a custom thickness and hardness and weight
  7. New Equipment for (Modern) Defender with some infos and a twist

    i have spectol on a bat to try short pips. Havent payed short pips before, and only tried LP for 2 months or so last summer. Let me know how you get on as interested to hear your progress. do you have coaching/ specialist coaching for pips? Or watching anything in particular online?
  8. using speed glue only?

    Speed glue drys really fast - doesn't need half a day. People i know that still use it glue 10/15mins before playing.
  9. Got a racket from Anders Lind

    I think its a preference thing rather than speed glue. Ive tried the multiply layer thing and tbh much prefer just one layer on the blade and one on the rubber. You have to remember too - hes changing rubbers very often - so it doesn't need to be fixed for months. Probably just uses a thin...

    Just had a quick look at your blades @Wakkibatty - they look great - the Stingray one is mad (in a good way!), :-D Im in agreement with @NDH - this discussion is so hard as I feel we are hopeless to work out the answers. In my area there is a drive to get more juniors in the game by a couple of...
  11. Common TT injuries

    Most weeks that one for me @Gozo Aruna haha
  12. TAKING ON TABLE TENNIS LEGENDS! | TTD Team vs Butterfly Legends

  13. Tenergy 05 vs Tenergy 05fx

    does anyone still use Tenergy 05/05fx? If so why - what do you benefit from opposed to the Dignics range?
  14. DHS H3 vs Yasaka Rakza Z

    Hows do you compare Rakza Z to G09c - in your profile you use that also? I keep coming back to D09c - i just like it, yes I prob dont get the maximum out of it but I find it a really great rubber to use. Just wish there was a slightly softer version with a bit of kick for BH But i didnt like...
  15. UK Table Tennis Prospects

    Agree - without the structure and development plan, it isn't going to happen.
  16. UK Table Tennis Prospects

    I think probably all of those things. The Lebruns father was professional so think they were always going to go that way.
  17. UK Table Tennis Prospects

    While I don't disagree - I don't think (bar football in the UK) anyone goes into a sport as a career to make money. But there is a difference between being able to live and train and earn pretty much zero from the sport.
  18. WTT 2024 feeder events

    Agree too good to be at the feeder events - won the Manchester one without dropping a set
  19. UK Table Tennis Prospects

    I went the Friday and Sat as my coach was playing didnt bother with the Finals. The atmosphere was better on the Friday and I enjoyed it - there was some great close games. The Saturday was pretty weird - no atmosphere seemed less people? And the scheduling was just silly. There was a massive...

    I though Connor looked really good at the Nationals - has a lovely style and nice to watch. Chris used all his craft and experience to win. Connor had match points. But It really was his wilyness that won :) Hes not a usual TT player and is a unique challenge! A different draw and he would have...
