boosting

One thing I found curious, is peoples results from different boosting procedures. It's very visible that the top professional players are using highly boosted rubbers due to the visible pimples, and after boosting myself, I found that it's easily replicatable, but also comes with tradeoffs...

Im fairly new to boosting and I've been seeing some interesting pictures of boosted rubbers from the chinese app Rednote. There seems to be a big trend in using the black oil over there, and I've been wondering about what the main differences between the yellow and black oil are. At them moment...

Hello everyone. I’ve been using a sheet of unboosted Hurricane 2 on my blade for over a year. After some time, the pimples started to show like boosted Hurricanes, and the rubber got faster. My guess is that it is because I have hit many, many hard shots with it (at least I think my shots have...

What do you think about limiting the maximum weight of rackets? It will give some much needed hope to defenders if the new formula was 180g or less.

Hi everyone, I finally tell myself that is time to try boosted H3 Prov BS 40 on FH. My current setup is : Blade: Q968 Prov BH: D09c FH: Xiom C55 I plan to use Haifu National White So my questions are: 1. Haifu National White soften sponge by 4-5 degrees. If I reeebost sponge it will be softer...

Ok so I boosted my dignics 05 and 09c rubbers and they played really well. still do after few months now. However I got some new ones in and I decided to replace the boosted ones with unboosted. The boosted ones I reglued on another blade. That blade is exact same size as the previous blade...

Hey Guys, this is my first post on this forum which I've been browsing for quite some time. First, I want to thank the TTD community because I've learned a lot from it. Today, it's my turn to share my learnings with you! I just got back from a week in Shanghai, where I spent time training and...

Hi, got a prov 40º bs h3 neo and It's my first time boosting a rubber with Haifu. I have several and short questions about how to proceed: 1) Do you remove the topsheet plastic before boosting? Or it remains in the topsheet after it curls? 2) How many layers in the 1st boost of the rubber? I...

Would this be suitable, or is it advisable to use a 'european' rubber booster? Thanks in advance

Just watched an interesting video on Bilibili, but since it's in Chinese I'll just do a quick summary here: we've got a booster patent file explaining how it's made, what's in it, and why it works. :D And here it is, enjoy, if you know how to read Chinese. If you don't however, I'll see if I...

Just received some new butterfly rozena rubbers and thought if I should boost them, because I’ve boosted all my previous rubbers and they felt awesome. And how many layers, I heard 1 layer should be enough. But if you have any tips or opinions on this, please comment about it, thanks!

I have equipped a couple of my blades with DHS Hurrican 3 commercial. I chose Standard H3 on my forehand and NEOs on the backhand. I now found that after a couple of months I turned the blade around because the Standard H3 has maintained both it's tackiness and bounciness , while the NEOs have...

Hello, so I want to buy Hurricane 3 (bh) and Skyline 2 (fh) and boost them with Falco Long. Is it better to buy the NEO versions and boost them afterwards? If yes, why is it better? Thanks y'all!!

Hi, Moving on from a previous thread ‘ Boosting H3 Neo National’ , the last post I made on that thread was to try boosting 2 sheets of rubber in slightly different ways and see what happens. How much the sponge expands, and what difference is found in letting the doming subside before applying...

Hey folks! I wanna try the H3 boosted. People say the national version goes best with boosting. But they are so expensive like 80-100$ ... so is national version really needed ? or can I have good results with the com. version as well ?

Hi Everyone... I think this will be an interesting topic for many people here as many are rather confused by this boosting process unless you are a Hurricane rubber user. I do not like boosting but I am not against it since many people I know do that. I am against speed glue as it is unfair and...

Hi Everyone, I can understand why people boost the typically tacky and hard sponged Chinese rubbers, and additionally boost Chinese rubbers / hybrid rubbers that are ‘factory’ tuned, because it seems the factory boosting is limited as far as longevity is concerned and that possibly the factory...

Curious to know this. I’m thinking of getting a Yasaka Rakza z or z hard and I’m going to boost it but I want to know how much it softens the sponge by so I can decide. ideally I would like it around 48 to 50 degrees.

I wanted to boost H3 Neo Commercial but it didn't turn out as I would expect. First I put on a layer of solvent based glue on the rubber, and then a thin layer of booster. After about 12 hours the rubber still hasn't curved at all and I decided to put on another layer of booster, this time a...
