short pips

Looking for suggestions for a beginner-friendly short pips (FH) setup. A coworker of mine is looking to have his own racket, but as of now it's unlikely he'll dive much into learning techniques or actual coaching beyond whatever tips I give him, so it doesn't have to be fancy stuff just better...

Hi, I'm helping a clubmate transition to pips/anti on his BH. He currently uses a very worn out Donic Bluegrip C1 (a hand-me-down from another person) and has developed a certain style around this. Basically he blocks and pushes, which slows down the pace returns it flat similar to an anti...

From my first impressions of short pips in training, I found that with some conscious effort to open my racket face loosely, every ball that bounces above the net allows me to punch and send my opponent into oblivion. Doesn’t matter if it’s backspin or topspin. In all honesty I can’t find any...

What do you guys think of this rubber? It should be quite nice considering that Andro is pretty trustable (not rlly planning to buy it but Andro Sandro)

After developing tennis elbow (I'm 42 years old), i was advised by the physiotherapist to switch to a lighter setup. The one I'm using right now is around 185 grs (Tibhar Alexis Lebrun Off / FH Xiom Vega Pro MAX / BH Xiom Vega Korea MAX). I'm checking some Spinlord short pips rubbers because...

Hello! I've been wondering which short pips is better, The Friendship/729 802 Mystery III Or... The RITC 802-40 Which of these is better?

Hi everyone. Just for information, what does each type of rubber do and what're its usages? Specifically, short, medium, and long pips, as well as inverted and anti spin. What type of player is best suited for these rubbers?

I've recently become enamored with the short pips penhold style, but there's so much different equipment with so many different properties (even more than inverted rubber, I think) and I don't know where to start. To anyone who has played with pips, I would appreciate your advice. I am also open...

There's this old guy at my club who plays 1-sided penhold with pips, and it really amazes me how he is able to give me very difficult balls with very little effort. Eventually I decided I will try this configuration and see what I can do with it. I got a sheet of Friendship RITC 802-40 pips for...

I am a beginner 45 years old player and I often play outdoors. There are a couple of older guys (~65 year) that: - play close to the table, are not very mobile - have a lot of playing experience (good shot placement, blocking) - play SP or cheap premade rackets (where sponge is thin or non...

Hello guys , planning to buy new setup , thinking about several blades Yasaka Ma Lin Soft Carbon Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive Donic Waldner Senso Carbon or Stiga Clipper want to glue maybe hard chinese sticky (or some hybrid like tibhar k3 or joola golden tango) rubber and soft spinny short...

Hey guys this is my first post on Table Tennis Daily *round of applause*! I really need you guys' opinions on a topic that I have been having a dilemma with lately. I'm talking about sleepless nights waking up in cold sweat kind of vibe. Ok, I'm exaggerating but I did once dream about this...

Hi guys, I’ve recently made the switch from a pimples in rubber (Tenergy 05 in 2.1) to short pips (Tibhar D.Tecs Speedy Soft in 2.0) on my backhand. I wasn’t able to play a pain-free backhand topspin with inverted rubbers due to an injury before, and I feel like the pips give me more options to...

Hi, im thinking of making the transition from smooth rubber (Tibhar mx-p) to a short pimple. I will explain my playstyle, and if you don't think it suits me you can say because when my mx-p goes flat i will replace it with another inverted rubber. My playstyle focuses on forehand loops, and...

Hello everyone! I'm currently playing with Yinhe V14 Pro MX-S + Rakza 7. I'm looking to replace my rakza 7 with short pips as I want to have a more lightweight setup, less spin sensitivity, better blocking and better flat hitting (I rarely ever use BH topspin stoke so topspin capabilities of SP...

Hello, please I have a question. I am playing with short pips on backhand (materialspecialist burnout 2.0) and classic rubber on forhand (rasanter r37 2.0). My style is looping with forhend and also with backhand (on backhand I am using short pips, because I have problem in reading spin, and...

Greetings to everyone. As the season finished for my team, I'm planing to move on sp on my FH. As lula suggested me some months ago, I'll go for Rakza PO, as most people say the feel quite similar to inverted, and best suited for people coming from inverted. On my BH I'll keep using fastarc...

Hello TTD members, After practising quite a few hours in the last 2 years, I still have a huge problem on my FH, almost on every shot(well, except flat hitting). My footwork is not that good and I'm rather slow on positioning. My FH loops are also poor. I am not trying to "dodge" practising...
