  1. Blades Limba-Limba-ALC-Kiri-ALC-Limba-Limba

    Not exactly what you're asking for, but the Tibhar Stratus Samsonov CB is Limba / Ayous / Kevlar Carbon / Kiri. Nice blade, quite underrated, especially for its price. Very comfortable handle too.
  2. Throw angle is not a rubber property!

    Throw angle isn't a property of a rubber, but it is a characteristic, and thus does matter in the selection of one rubber vs. another.

  6. Build your perfect WTT player

    Totally agree. Quadri is an amazing player. One can only imagine the heights he might've reached if he'd had the quality coaching and support some of the other world Top 20 players have benefitted from since their youth. I've had the privilege of seeing Quadri play live against other...

  10. Fan zhendong, Ma Long and Cheng Meng announces Retirement from WTT/ITTF

    Don't worry, it's not a big deal. One of the Forum moderators will probably spot this soon and they can merge this into one of the existing threads if they think that'd be helpful. More importantly, glad to have another fan on the Forum, welcome!
  11. WTT Champions Frankfurt 2024

    Man! When Quadri is on form he is an absolute joy to watch! That forehand is simply unrivalled.
  12. Someting similar to Xiom HAL?

    According to TT Gearlab, the Donic Persson PowerPlay has similar characteristics: Basically what these numbers indicate is that the Hugo HAL is faster than the PPP, and that it feels very slightly harder, but that their playing characteristics are almost identical. Given that you can...
  13. SDC Handmade Blades

    I made the same suggestion as you have, and I do think it would help Sergio, but it sounds like part of the appeal of the whole enterprise, for him, is the process of customisation. Sergio, if you don't mind me picking up on jar's post to raise this thought again, I really do think this is a...
  14. SDC Handmade Blades

    I think 50%-75% premium for priority ticketing sounds reasonable. Also, I wonder if a meaningful percentage of your orders are essentially "the same" blade, just with personalised handle designs? In other words, if, say, 1/5 blades is basically a Viscaria, and another 1/5 is basically an...
  15. Should I boosted H3 blue provincial 40 degrees in this era?

    I use H3 Neo Provincial Blue 40, unboosted, and am very happy with it. More than enough spin and speed for me, and I like the feel of it just like that. It takes maybe two sessions to feel "right", but so does any rubber.
  16. XIOM C55 Impressions and Comparison with H3N

    Thanks Latej, I think I'll give it a try. I know what you mean about the Chinese feeling. I've been using H3 Neo Prov. BS, unboosted, and it's great! From time to time I have a knock with someone else's bat with some ESN rubber and, though they're fine, the balance of the H3 just gives me much...
  17. XIOM C55 Impressions and Comparison with H3N

    I've been thinking of giving Rxton 9 a go, but have been discouraged by reports of inconsistent quality. Is there a supplier you've found reliable?
  18. Petr Korbel Vs Clipper Cr

    My point is just that a Clipper (or similar) might be an easier change for you, provided you're okay with the heavier blade. You can certainly play a very good looping game with a 7-ply all-wood. I've never played with a Clipper, but I've used other 7-ply wood blades, and found them very...
  19. Petr Korbel Vs Clipper Cr

    It looks like you'll be moving from a Balsa-Carbon blade. Blades with that construction are often used by players who favour a fast, flat-hitting, punch-blocking style. If that's true of you, then a 7-ply (like a Clipper) might be a more comfortable transition for you. I'm not suggesting that...
