Don't know man, this Chanel ball seems gold to me
Butterfly.
For bang for the buck I like Yasaka Rakza 7 in its different forms. I buy from tabletennis11 so I get four for about $27p-$28 US. DHS H3 Neo commercial is also a good deal.
My first Yinhe Apollo was very tacky. My second Yinhe Apollo was nothing like the first one. It was like they had a secret formula and lost it. Butterfly is also good but does not pass the bang for the buck test.
The pushblocker said he would buy many rubbers and try them before choosing one. That doesn't speak well of the quality of LP manufacturers. I don't see how one screws that up though unless they are forced to change by the ITFF like Grass DTecs had to change.
Bang for the buck is a totally subjective measure. So it is a pretty pointless discussion when people are generally trying to get direct comparisons between various options.
What do people who are paid to win use most often? And for us mere mortals, how is the quality control?
Actually bang for the buck is more objective than what most people "directly compare" on. At least you get the denomiator.
Exactly. The percentage who don't use DHS or Butterfly on the pro circuit is probably measured in low single digit numbers. Even a lot of players that are sponsored by the other brands tend to use Butterfly or DHS rubbers.
In terms of all-wood blades, Stiga still has the edge for shakehand, and Yasaka for penhold.
In terms of composite blades, Butterfly is king of the hill around the world...
Kind of agree but I interpreted the question as "what's the best table tennis brand".
Viscaria, W968, H3N, D/T05 etc may not be the best equipment for everyone but it's for sure what the best table tennis players in the world use with very few exceptions. I seriously doubt that they would continue to use this equipment if something better was available. They chose the best as that equipment is what puts food on their table.
Yoass the attorney...
Well, umm, thanks, I suppose?
But now you're here... do you really think I'm just going the way of full rhetorics, playing the devil's advocate, putting up straw men?
FWIW, I actually don't think I am. I think the main premise here is really deeply flawed.
