Grand finals equipment

Nilsragnar · Dec 14, 2015

I watched the womens final and it looks like both Ding Ning and Chen Meng plays with Stiga Ebenholz.

Also, it looked like Jeon Jihee uses Nittaku Acoustic, and Vladimir Samsonov seems to be using Tibhar CCA unlimited.

Is this correct?

also saw, that dima ovtcharov is using some kind of composite blade

sneaked out even with tape was applied on handle

in match between mizutani

I remember I googled "Chen Meng equipment" during swedish open and I got no information apart from that she is sponsored by Stiga. Any ideas what rubbers she use?

Nilsragnar · Dec 14, 2015

I also googled it but got nothing! As for rubbers, I don't know that either.

I do think however, that Zhu Yuling is using Stiga Intensity, the same as Xu Xin, that's what it looked like anyway.

most likely t05. Only LSW in female CNT uses H3N

Chen Meng uses Stiga Infinity VPS V with H3 Neo orange sponge and T64 in BH.
All of CNT members uses national rubbers... Otherwise there wouldn't be any benefit to be on the CHinese National A Team

Chen Meng

LSW is one of the few women who uses the H3 blue sponge version in FH and Spin Art in BH

No, she uses Innerforce ZLC with H3 NEO on FH and BH I don't know.

Nice, thanks! To my untrained eye the Infinity looked like Ebenholz, and the Innerforce like an Acoustic

Cool, so interesting to see women part of CNT using 5 ply wooden blades. Makes me wonder why aren't they using composite ones like most men do.

Ilia Minkin · Dec 15, 2015

Or maybe their blades are Viscarias with Stiga handles?

Women prefer more control and less power.

Women prefer control AND power. I'm married so that's how I know. Lol!

Women play very close to the table and they strokes appear shorter and less powerful than men's. I just thought that extra kick from the composite blade may be beneficial to compensate for the less power.

Samsonov's equipment vs Xu Xin : handle really looks like Force Pro Black Edition he currently uses. But I cannot see the red plywoods the blade normally has. What do you think?

Giangt · Dec 17, 2015

He is using the CCA Unlimited now FL

FloKing · Dec 18, 2015

The brand new Tibhar blade. Interesting

. He switched from all wood to composite.
He did quite good with it at the Grand Finals.

LOL. This is hysterical. Can't be said any better.

Women prefer control and power.

I am surrounded by women. My wife. My daughter. My sister. That is a small thing. In my work there are at least 20 women for every one man. Women not only prefer, they demand control and power.

Haha, then you'll have to watch your tactics. Always try to play with short, soft touches or else they'll loop you right of the table

My sister does, but not the others. Besides....it was a joke about power and control, not the kind for TT but when someone wants control of things and power over people.

Hahaha. I think it may be too late and that I have already been looped off the table by all of them.

The funny part is, at work I am the boss but part of why I am effective and well liked is I let all those women at work have all the power and control.....or, at least, I make them feel that this is the case. hehehe.

So I guess I am using tactics and soft touch. But....aha....now I understand why I have so much more trouble from a tactical standpoint, with my wife; now the question is, how to make her feel she has the power and control while still holding my own. hahahaha.
