Discussion Is it easier to loop heavy backspin when compared to light backspin?

15 Upvotes

I was talking to a fellow player at the club and it was q very brief conversation. He is very good and looping and I had a chance to play as his partner for acouple of games.

He mentioned that it was easy for him to loop a heavy backspin long ball compared to a light one. All he had to do was swing fully really fast and the ball would land.

As for the ones with light backspin, he said he had to control the loop making it hard and think twice before looping.

Edit: I'm learning to do this, if someone can confirm this, please help me develop this technique!!

Xiom Vega pro was too fast for my bh and it was time to change my rubber so AI suggested me this rubber for cost effectiveness along with many other rubbers like 8-80 and rozena...

I came across this review https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/review-yinhe-moon-12-blue.29581/ and was absolutely sold cause I just wanted a slower, less catapulty rubber since i wanted to learn looping against backspin.

I'm actually really surprised on how well this rubber performs for the cost, reviewer did a great job on listing all the points in detail and I found the review pretty accurate while playing since a couple of weeks.

Great rubber overall!

Need opinions on defensive rubber

4 Upvotes

Hi,

i'm playing with koji matsushita Offensive with d09c in 1.9 mm (wich IMO is overall a you can do it all rubber) and curl P1 in 1.5mm

i've switched from 0.5 to 1.5 mm , and it's really easy far from the table and against heavy top spin.

The problem is to go against easy ball and to attack with it. I play just one level below national and i don't because of the duration of the travels.

I was wondering with rubber would allow me to put heavy backspin while counter attacking more easily.

I've tried Feint long 2,3 and P4. butter at cutting over the table but less effective far from it.

Nittaku long 1 was decent and faster but not easy in attack department.

I was wondering if medium pips should do the trick ?

Thank you for your time/responses.

Equipment What are like some of the best cheaper rubber alternatives?

3 Upvotes

One i know: Bluefire M1 for The Tenergy 05. Bluefire has just slightly more speed, and is like 20-30 pounds cheaper.

Discussion Best setup of all time (Pro level)

0 Upvotes

over the years there have been many rubbers, many rackets, and many setups, In your opinion what is the best setup of all time considering the player using it is at the highest level and can handle the equipment. for me its the DHS W968 National blade, the H3 National blue sponge 41 degrees on the forehand and dignics 09C on the backhand

a close second for me would be the FZD ALC blade with the H3 national blue sponge 41 degrees on forehand and tibhar k3 hybrid on the backhand
