control

Hi, in the past i bought some used mxps and i liked the rubber a lot in that state. So one day i pulled the trigger and bought a new one(black max). I knew these rubbers are factory boosted a lot and it also had the smell. Now there where things that surprised me in a negative way. 1. the...

Hello, I have an old blade from 2011, the Gergely Tamca 5000 and I would like to have suggestions about the rubbers suited for it. My game has lot of looping on FH and Looping, flicks and chops on the BH. And of course I need to have some ease of control. My regular blade is Timo Boll ALC...

Hi, I'm a middle intermediate player that plays a control/placement spin/block style of game (à la Samsonov) and am looking to replace a composite blade/Calibra LT with a new setup that will provide more control and spin. Any recommendations would be appreciated. I'm quite open to an all wood...

Hi, I don't have too much experiance with so many different rubbers, but with time I've noticed that in many cases I play better and with much more "control" with rubbers, marked with less control. And on the opposite - I fail with some rubbers, presumed to have a lot of control. When I tryed to...

Hey there, I want to try H3 Neo again, I tried it in 2010 the last time and back then I didn't know much about it and that is why I was so disappointed. I expected some Tenergy speed and the balls dropped into the net. Today I know why, different stroke, no catapult etc. Since I want to try it...

Hey guys, I am looking for a FH rubber which would give me control close to the table (short game, blocking, engaging in TS) but power when I start to step out from the table; any recommendations? I currently play with RakzaX 2mm, which I find great far from the table, giving me plenty of...

Hi everyone, I'm currently trying to figure out how to get more control when I'm chopping with long pimples. Is it blade or rubber? I use the Joo se hyuk blade and Hellfire Long pimples. When I get into a rally I chop well, however I find that if come up against someone who loop drives...

I usually buy rubber from Bribar and they tell me that the ratings they publish are based on testing the rubbers (which would seem an awful lot of testing!). However, when I compare the Bribar ratings with those on the table tennis database I find huge inconsistencies. For example, when I look...

This is what the Slovenian National Team get up to during the break of their training session! The control is so impressive! Thoughts?

Hi , I know it is not good for a beginner/intermediate player to buy such fast blade, but it is a pleasure to have one. I'm very comforable on my BH with T64 on it but not the FH with T80 FX, the ball just jump away and gives zero chance to develop the right stroke, I'm suffering on loops, they...

Good day everyone, as the title suggests, i need advice on equipment. I liked LKT Toxic 5, an All+ Blade but its heaviest from the store ik is 69gms I am looking for something heavier around 95-98gms and a headsize around 157x151mm You're suggestions are greatly appreciated

I have always wondered about this - why does the server always have to wait for the returner to be ready, even if the returner is taking a ridiculous amount of time? Shouldn't there be a maximum time between points for umpired matches at least? Or will that just cause trouble as another...

Hi guys, I was wondering if you could help me with the following. I am looking for over a few weeks now what would be the best rubber for me on my BH. But with all the possible rubbers out there right now, it is just difficult to choose. I am quite sure this question has been asked many...

I[ purchased my infinity vps v only two months ago, I dont even use it and the top veneer has started peeling away.. I filled it up with PVA or wood glue and sat it in my vice.... if this doesnt fix it i will be contacting Stiga in sweden, anyone else have this problem? its upsetting because I...

Hi everybody, Reading the posts in this Forum I came to idea (may be not quite correct) that if a blade is very fast rubbers should be slow to have good control without loosing the speed. Thus, which is a better combination for an optimal ratio of speed/control (Running with the hare and hunting...

I'm considering upgrading my equipment from an old Stiga 2000 with Mark V to something with a little more speed and spin, preferrably without loosing too much control and what is often referred to as "forgiveness". When reading reviews many rubbers are referred to as having good or even...

At the moment I have a Stiga Calibra Sound and I'm looking for a spinnier rubber (if possible) for forehand... Soft to Medium-soft sponge. I was thinking of Xiom Vega Europe or Japan, Donic Bluefire JP 03 and Joola X-plode Sensitive. Throw not too high. Any recommendations? Thanx

Hi, I need a new blade because mine is getting full of dents. I'm currently playing with a Butterfly Timo Boll OFF-, and I like it. It suites my playstyle, offensive but still in need of control. So I would like a blade that's fast but still with lots of control. But it should cost less than...

i've observed that most of China top players used DHS rubbers for FH,that means that these rubbers are manufactured to produce great Power, speed and spin maybe therefore used as Offensive rubber...is there a DHS rubber that is also good for defense, for blocking and also powerful??...thanks and...
