setup

I have used Stiga Eternity VPS V blade with Tibhar FXS on forehand and Stiga Mantra M on backhand. I find this setup too fast to control and all the smashes which used to land on the table when I used to play with a premade bat are now landing outside. I'm not able to return the side spins with...

Hi all, I would like to hear your opinion about this. Most top players play inverted on both sides. Is that the most viable setup to be a great player? For example why are less players to play FH short pips(like Mattias Karlsson), BH short pips(like Tan Ruiwu) or modern defense with LP? I think...

Hi guys, i'd like to ask to anyone had experience with battle 2 rubbers. My blades: h301, fh black battle2 45°, bh red mx-s max. Tsp altero, fh black battle2 45°, bh red battle2 45° I'd like to know if different sponge hardness is better (for b2). And if it is a good configuration for me (i...

Hi Everyone, Wanted to get an advice on a setup for my son. He is 8, started playing recently, seems to be enjoying it and this is the only sport so far that I see him doing well at. Still at the very beginner level. Right now he is playing with Stiga Evolution pre made. So far it is fine for...

Hi guys - I recently bought a new DHS 301 composite blade after playing with my Andro Temper Tech OFF for 3 years as I wanted an upgrade. I did my due diligence and read lots of reviews online about the 301 before purchasing and most reviews seemed to be glowing. Most reviews seemed to agree...

I'm thinking of changing blades because the Hurricane Long 5 has a terrible handle, it's too thin and makes the head of the racket super heavy. Currently Im using the Nittaku Hurricane Pro 3 Turbo Orange on FH (heaviest rubber I've ever used GEEZ), and Hurricane 2 Neo on BH. I'm thinking of...

Hi all, For an amateur player, that table tennis will not make his life, but he likes to pratice and so. For example. In one season, he has time to pratice every day, but the another next three or more seasons he will have less time(1 time pratice for week), it's correct to have a blade that he...

hi guys, reaction time is important. thats why i consider a lighter setup. currently my ALL+ blade weights 83 g. with my both max sponge rubbers the total setup weight is about 175g. the lightest offensive blades i did found are Joola Air with the All+ blade is 60g. while iam a big fan of max...

Hi everyone! I have a question about a table tennis blade and the rubbers I want to buy. I was thinking about buying the Zhang Jike ALC blade with Tenergy 05 (1.9) on my forehand and Tenergy 05-FX (1.9) on the backhand but I don’t know if this will be a good setup for me. I have played with...

Please put down your favourite setup and write what type of player you are!!!

Hi, I'm playing with Sriver FX 1.9 on the FH and and Butterfly Super Anti on the BH .. I'm used to play defensive, trying to block with my BH. Occasionally I try to block with my FH and try to attack with it .. Always forward smash, never trying to topspin. I try to serve with power with my FH...

Hi I am looking for new setup for this year. My current setup last year was H3N on FH and Mark V on BH both max sponges. I would preferably like a more spinnier setup which has descent control as well. I have a slow flexible blade Dawei Genote all wood blade to go along. Thanks in advance.

Hi Guys! I would need some counseling, been playing for the last 3-4 months with a Tibhar Stratus Powerwood (has a really awesome feel to it) paired with Tibhar's Evo MXP rubbers on both FH & BH. Kind of love this setup, it really helped me to brush up my technique, however I think I've hit a...

I've read some good things about a DHS 301 Arylate Carbon blade, so I decided to order it from the XVT shop on aliexpress. However, now I need some help picking the rubbers for the set up. I like my backhand rubber to be fast so I'm thinking of going for the Xiom Vega Pro (hopefully it won't...

How much is this setup actually worth? I was at a friends house and he told me his racket was almost $500 New zealand dollar (approx $340 USD) - exact price unsure but i'd guess he meant 450-550 range. I saw he had a Tenergy 64 + 05 rubbers with Butterfly Tamca Chinese ULC blade (penhold) and...

Hello guys, I've sold my set up (donic waldner senso carbon with rakza 7, mx-p) and I've got a Primorac off- blade, and I'm wondering what chinese rubbers setup will be good for that blade, may be a black max hurricane 3 neo commercial fh, and a red max hurricane 8 bh? I've tried the H3NEO and I...

Very fair/good prices, steals in my opinion - if prices are unreasonable or you are interested, send me a PM :) ___ Donic Crest OFF FL 91g H3 Neo Orange Sponge Provincial 2.2/41 tuned (used 1-2 months) Yasaka Rakza X Max (used 2 months) £85 only! https://photos.app.goo.gl/1dvSzPi3deJ4NfyH2...

Greetings guys. I just wanted some feedback regarding my planned new setup. I am a Penholder who still has many things to learn, and rallying is one of them. I usually get my points off third ball attacks and my service (since I am still an amateur I guess) and I only recently learned how to...

Hello there!!! I've been playing as a chopper for a while now and im enjoying it very much. One thing im becoming aware is that i tend much more to try a FH Chop than a counterattack/lob/fish, and for me it is really satisfying. With my current setup, Vioncello +G-1 Max + Curl P1 1.7mm i can...
