  1. carbon blade with spin ability

    Hello, I'm looking for a carbon blade that helps with ease of spin creation and that has a strong maximum spin capability.It should be slower than viscaria, but faster than persson powerplay.And control needs to be good, which means it cannot be too flexible such as some very thin carbon blades...
  2. Hints to making videos of lifting back spin.

    Making a good video takes a little planning and experimentation. Getting the right camera angle is key. It is apparent to me that how one makes the video is as important as the skill of the looper returning the back spin. It is best if the video show looping balls that are below the net...
  3. TSP Super Ventus and Ventus Spin - Anyone played with it?

  6. Spin sensitivity of T05 & T05FX

    There are many statements on the internet that T05 is spin sensitive. Does anyone know if it is due to pimples, sponge or something else?

  9. Omega 7 vs Rakza Z, what's better?

    So since there are literally over 20 million different blade/rubber combos possible, and since I have no life, I've spent alot of time analyzing rubbers. I've been using Omega 7 Hyper on backhand, Hurricane 3 National on forehand but switching it around has felt more natural, prefer H3 throw...

  13. European / Japanese Rubber for spin-oriented play

    Dear table tennis enthusiasts, I started playing table tennis again only one and a half years ago, but am making great progress. Mostly, because I had been introduced to the proper techniques in a proper club when I played for 2 years as a child. I am (extremely) forehand dominant, play...
  14. Boosting hurricane 3 neo damages the spin

    Hi guys, I recently bought Hurricane 3 neo rubber national version and dianchi oil booster. I put 3 layers of dianchi water glue and then 4 layers of dianchi oil booster and then 1 more layer of glue. All good up to the point where I started playing. Everything was good but it felt like it...
  15. Weird spin on Hurricane 3

    Hi all, I've been playing with a Hurricane 3 orange sponge for about 2 months now and a few people have observed that my forehand loops were not as spinny as they thought it would be, and the ball ended up going into the net instead of popping up... I am totally confused by this because i...

    I'm a beginner and trying to get ready for a big upcoming tournament. I went to my local table tennis club and got some coaching today. What sometimes happens during my matches is that I'll get into these unending pushing rallies. As the rally gets longer, I try to generate more backspin in...

  20. Side spin at the pro level?

    I've been watching a lot of competitive pro videos like ITTF tournament matches and noticed that other than serving, there doesn't seem to be a lot of side spin done during rallies whether it's topspin or backspin. Am I seeing things wrong, and maybe it's just hard to see on video feeds, or do...
