setup

I was using acuda S2 on both sides of my korbel before I stopped playing like 2 years ago. I recently wanted to start again and decided to buy some cheap decent rubbers to get me on track. I bought Palio AK47 yellows and put them on both sides but after 3 months of training with them I find them...

I have now played table tennis actively for almost two years now. And after a good while with the Primorac Off- and Mark V on both sides, i found that i lack in pace of the game. My strongest hand i definitely my forehand. Even with pretty slow equipment i find my loops to be powerful and...

​​I'm amateur, played in the "basement" with friends as a teenager and came back to it 30 years later and enjoying it very much. In last several month I took number of group classes with Chinese coach and I'm improving ( trying to get rid of bad habits too), started to go to the club to teach my...

Looking for a couple of practice setups with specific rubbers to improve my brush/loop forehand. Based on my research here in the rubbers forum, here is what i'm considering. Any feedback greatly appreciated! 1. DHS 301 w/Hurricane 3-50 and a Battle II reg or Provincial (both sides will be FH...

Hello, I wonder what equipment pro really use, especially as it often seems very similar to what amateurs used. For example we see in Dan reviews that Pitchford plays with viscaria and T05, Drinkhall with a carbon blade with MXP. But these combo are often also found in the hand of amateur...

Hello, I am interested in finding out what someone has to take into account when he wants to make a new palette and how those aspects are matched with a specific equipment. Since there are a lot of rubbers and blades available on the market, we will not talk about a specific brand; instead we...

Hello, I have checked out a lot of the blades available on multiple websites and done my research on what kind of blade is well suited for myself. However, I've always wondered: What kind of blade and rubber setup is good for someone who has never touched a table tennis ball before? I'm wanting...

Hello everyone, I've been playing on and off for about 10 years now. Back in the day I had some coaching and have become pretty consistent with the basic strokes. I'd call myself a beginner-intermediate player. I lost my last paddle in my office a couple years ago and want to get back into...

I have ordered Palio Ak47 blue in red to use on fh. I hopefully find a cheaper rubber than the normal ones from all the expensives firms. And will use my black Spinlord Gipfelsturm 1,8 on bh. I use Fextra 7 as my main paddle. Tonight at training i will test how the Ak47 blue is playing, im so...

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...

I need help to choose the best setup of what i have of wood and rubbers. Have 2 woods. Butterfly Petr Korbel Avalox P700 Rubbers i use is. Yasaka Razka 7 soft in fh which i really like because i can feel the rubber when i loop and spin. In bh i have 3 choises of pimple rubbers im in doubt...

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...
