@Сергей Буханцов you are from eurooe, so you have learnt the western method. Coach Emratthich here is explaining the chinese method. The chinese hard rubbers are only good if you put in strength from your lower body. The chinese method is better for most players, but some would prefer the western version as it works better for them.
I recently bought Apolonia ZLC which feels like a very good Offensive blade. Good control and consistency with plenty of power mid distance. Prior to that I used Stiga Infinity VPS V with DNA Hard on both sides. I loved this set up too but wanted a little more power.
Your tips are one of the best I've ever heard! Very helpful! I'm a player and a coach in Germany and I didn't know enough about equipment! Normally my blade is Donic Waldner Diablo Senso and XIOM Vega Pro rubbers on both sides! Thank you! 👍
coach EmRatThich, My first was Haoshuai blade, then Yasaka extra special, a player introduced me Ma Lin carbon so I got it as well. The former all wood blades has very good feel but is thicker, the latter carbon is thinner. Definitely better to practice first on wood blade to get correct full motion of the techniques using the slower rubbers. It doesn't need to be expensive to be a good blade, the Yasaka is more affordable and of good quality. More importantly suits your own style and physique.
I have two Stratus Power Wood that I alternate each time I change rubbers. Am currently using Tenergy 05 f/h and Dignics 09c b/h. The blades have really helped my development over the past 3 years. I have tried boosted h3, tibhar MX-p, Aurus Sound but my current config I feel has more room for growth. Perhaps dignics on both sides for future!
Hello coach! I read this article 2 days back. It's very pleasure to hear the same in your voice. I am planning to buy stiga eternity wood. Currently using clipper cr with gold arc (47.5*) and xiom omega 7 pro Europe. What's ur thoughts on stiga eternity blade and good rubber for it
I play the "Joola Aruna Off + ", incredible feeling to play, if you play it with tenergy 05, Gewo Nexxus EL hard or a rasanter 53 fits there very well aswell.
I have a butterfly Nakama S2 built in blade (gonna change the rubbers soon to yinhe jupiter and sanwei ultraspin) and My rubbers are Both Butterfly Sapphira, good for beginners
Do you have any experience with balsa blades? I suffer from wrist pain when trying to play backhand topspin for some time, so i'm considering building some lightweight racket.
Hello EmRatTich Can u suggest me if I should get stiga intensity nct ch pen I heard it's a good blade But because of its hard outerply is it good for consistent looping ?
favorite blade that was an extension of the hand is joola kool! with ten62 bh and hurricane 2 fh. Now I use tibhar 4s 84g the most sonorous which was bh taichi hard fh vega pro and stiga hibryd wood bh hadou 40+ ak47 bluy
Hello. My set up is Xiom Offensive s with two Tibhar Evolution ELS rubbers 2.0mm. I’ve been thinking of changing my setup to Stiga Clipper CR with Hurricane 3 neo on forehand. But I don’t know should I change to Chinese rubber on forehand. Can you help with that?
Is there a good alternative to use on the backhand of Stiga Offensive Classic other than Stiga Mantra M? I think Stiga Mantra M is going out of production. Would Nittaku Fastarc C-1 work well? I also wonder if DHS Hurricane 301 is a similar blade to the Stiga Offensive Classic, only faster.
Thanks for sharing ! What is the best upgrade of the Stiga Allround classic ? I want to keep that flexible thin blade with sharp feeling and reasonnable vibrations, but with more speed for punishing forehand topspins. I don't want the Allround Evolution because it is softer and I can't generate spin with the flex. I'm thinking about the offensive classic, but I'm scared it's too flexible and hard to block with. I also played with a Ma Lin Carbon and I liked the overall feel, although it's a lot faster. Any advice (I play with a vega pro) ? Thanks a lot.
Did you have tried the Joola Danube 5ply allwood blade??? Which blade has the same composition of this???the composition of Joola Danube is limba-spruce-ayous-spruce-limba. The spruce ply provide enough bounce, while Ayous ply provide super bottom power, fit for loop with fast attack play. Hope you read and reply to my comment I'm using it with Stiga Mantra H (blk) on fh and Stiga Mantra M (red) on bh🤗

I would add a less well known series: TSP balsa-fibre glass. I love the 5.5 but all speeds are available. They are light and controllable with great possiblities to play short or smash. Topsins are loaded.
I am a penhold player using yasaka 5 ply all wood Mal Lin Extra Offensive with Hurricane Neo 3 with orange sponge. I wish to upgrade to a harder blade to a faster blade, should I go for Ma Lin Carbon or Max Carbon?
Coach,Stinga Infinity VPS V có độ rung tốt không ạ?Cốt vợt này thích hợp với mặt vợt nào ạ? Em mới chơi lại bóng bàn nên muốn có nhiều cảm giác ạ.Thanks Coach!
Would you recommend the stiga rosewood xo for intermdiate if money were no concern? Would it be stiffer than the viscaria? I’ve had enough of my stiga oc carbon because i want more feeling and spin. I am an intermediate but have chosen to play like Wang liqin because of my height and big forehand strokes. Thing is I completely agree with the fact that the carbon blade set me back in my development so I’m looking for more vibration and feeling. I like the stiga clipper but apparently the handles on stiga blades are all hollow now (and I think butterfly does it better with the feel)
Hi, they are good all-wood blades on the market, you will need to pay attention to the layers of wood, a good 5 ply blade could be the Stiga Emerald VPS V, has a good feeling and awesome control, also make sure to find a wood that really fits on you, for example, a Koto wood is harder and faster than limba wood. If you already played with carbon blades, and you want more feeling on your strokes, I recommend the Ovtcharov or Harimoto inner force series, or the blade that I am using right now that is Xiom Azxi, the good thing with this type of blade is that they have the carbon just after the core, not under the surface like viscaria, so it will have more feeling but you will have good speed.
The table tennis shop near me has Nittaku Acoustic and Stiga Clipper and im going to buy both for my son. And will let my son decide which he will use when the time comes for him to learn table tennis. I also want to try the Butterfly SK7 clasic. My 1st blade was Butterfly Mazunov when i was still in the Philippines. Now I live in Japan for 20 years but when I 1st came here in Japan I bought a Stiga WRB Carbo 7.6 then a Stiga WRB Titanium 5.4. 2 or 3 years ago I bought 2 Friendship 8030 and a Butterfly Sardius. Lately I bought a Butterfly Fan Zhendong Super ZLC to add for my collection of blades. And later will buy the Nittaku Acoustic, Stiga Clipper and Butterfly SK7 classic.
Sir, I have Tibhar stratus power wood, I like to topspin and flick Can you please recommend a good rubber apart from don ice baracuda and xiom vega Asia? Also is Donic coppa jo gold or rasanter 47 better with this blade?
I have Tibhar Stratus Power Wood. I use DHS Neo 3 forehand and Nittaku G-1 backhand. I really like that set up. I have tried Baracuda, Tenergy, MX-P, etc. on the backhand but always go back to G-1 on the backhand. G-1 is a very direct rubber. Where you want to send the ball to, the ball goes there. I personally did not llike Baracuda with Power Wood at all. Everyone's playing style is differen.t
Hi Coach, I´m currently using Timo Boll Spirit (96g) with Tenergy 05 on both sides, but would like to go down in the weight to get more conrtol out of the racquet. What i like is the heavy one shot topspin ball i can play with that combination but it feels just a bit heavy in general. I also would like to play a blade, which is a little bit softer for opening topspins without getting a too high launch angle. Is there any blade you would recommend? I was thinking about the Viscaria or Lin Gaoyuang ALC. And in general: would oyu reccomend softer rubbers on harder blades and harder rubbers on softer blades? How does that affect the launch angle and the feel? I´m a bit worried, that the fast forehand topspins will get a too high launch angle wiht a soft blade even with a hard rubber. and what do you think about the mentioned blades for my favours?
From my own personal experience... The heavy blad is perfect cause it prevents error like opening you're bat to Mutch during topspin brushes... And the blade u play iz perfect especially for speed .... Cause it's quite quick... So I'd Rather you combine that wit rubber with a Mutch lower throwing velocity and then acceleration would be even amplified cause of your blade
Soo if you thinking lighter blade ... But u concerned about your topspin and throw angle ... And speed... Then I'll recommend u try a blade with carbon fiber Plies In the wood ... That makes it Mutch lighter but way faster than just wood .... Thn simpley add a nice hard forhand rubber without the high throw angle to back all that Pace up ...Soo thn maby add a softer more Tacky, grippier backhand rubber to confuse you're aponent when dowing your backhand chop... & Your backhand topspin also even... Cause from the backhand roll to the forehand topspin 🔥 the speed difference will almost make it impossible to react quick enough...
You talked about "ma lin extra offensive" and "ma lin soft carbon" (who is faster). Can you tell me the différence with an other wood : "ma lin carbon" (not soft version?
Hello, Thank you for this graet Video, I learnd very much. But how i shoud know wich blade on your list suits best for me? I am a european tabeltennis Player and play for 3 years now, and ask the guy on the table Tennis Shop for a raket, He rekomentet Dinic Person Power AR wich is a quit offensiv blade, an He said i shod kombind with a Forhand rubber with strong kik Effekt and a Bakhand Rubber that is very spinni and Hard. If got a feeling that the raket is to Hard for me. Do you rakoment chaning the blade of the rubbers, and waht u rakoment for each?
Go for all dhs, and use booster. Then you will never cry for any expensive rubber. You will have no more desire on expensive tensor or japanese rubbers
I use Donic Waldner Senso V1 with Baracuda y forehand and Hurriacan in backhand. But I recomend use Baracuda in backhand it's a Good Ruber cor backhand
14:07 Hello and thank you for your advice and help. I have a question, since you recommend all wood paddles, how come the butterfly primorac you show on the video is the one with carbon?. I’m a little confused there because I also believe all wood is better but the one you show has carbon. I feel the carbon makes it lighter and I kind of like a little weighted blade.
Primorac Carbón no es una hoja adecuada, es más rápida que Viscaria, con menos control. A nivel profesional Viscaria obstenta los primeros puestos en el ranking mundial, directamente o con sus respectivas versiones. Para comenzar a desarrollarse en un nivel medio es adecuada una madera más lenta que Viscaria. Primorac Carbón está fuera de lugar.
hii...sir i already wach your youtube chanel for blade table tenis..do you have a blade for sale sir ? for second hand. can i have thanks from indonesia.
I just started to play again table tennis after 30 years, was an intermediate good player. I have chosen a Stiga offensive classic master grip, equipped with two/mm yasaka mark 5 on both sides. Though, control is quite good at high speed but at lowe speed especially backhand is a disaster, balls fly all over the place. What do you think of this combination? Since it’s very frustrating to play like this, I have now bought a blade Yasaka defender, to be equipped with 2.2mm galaxy mars medium for the forehand and 2mm gewo mega flex control on the backhand, I am looking for control first. What do you think of this setup? Thanks
Offendive Classic de Stiga, prueba con MXP, pienso que te irá bien. Si es muy rápida, prueba Fastarc G1. Ya me contarás. Tú problema es debido a que juegas gomas inadecuadas después de la prohibición del pegamento rápido. En normas generales las gomas clásicas como Mark V y Sriver-L, entre otras, son gomas que pasaron a la historia del TT.
Got a Stiga Clipper WRB version. Hardness and weight is fair enough but the weight shifts to the head with the rubbers attached. Good for top spinning and attacking but no so much for chopping or defending.
Hi Coach! Excelent movie. Can you compare Nittaku Acoustic to Tibhar Stratus Powerwood and Butterlfy Petr Korbel JP in terms of speed, spin, flexibility, feeling, hardness and handle size? I have Korbel JP 92g and Stratus Powerwood 84g with ST handles. Second blade have perfect handle size for me (maybe because stratus is 6.2 mm). Have Nittaku Acoustic similar handle or is thinner?
Surprising but agree, Yasaka Ma Lin Extra is a very good blade. Unfortunately, it was a tiny bit fast for me so using Yasaka Ma Lin instead (off-) with Sriver (yes, very old/slow style but I have no problem handling all types of rubbers). I play at around 1800 level and have won official Maryland U1800/U1900 events pre-kids period of my life. Haha, y'all play as much as you can before kids.
I tried playing with hurricane 3 neo og a stiga offensive classic after watching this video, but I concluded after a few months that it was too difficult to develop that way ... so I went back to soft yasaka rubbers on forehand that was recommended to me by an expert shop (former top european player). I think its important to listen to the coach in your club and not get too excited by youtubers that get viewers by being provocative. I am considering to try rakza 7 on forehand in the long run tho, so I can get some kind of middle ground between the super hard chinese rubber and the dwell time of the soft euro style. Maybe the best advice I can give to others it to experiment with different rubbers and blades and see what you like yourself.
Razka 7 is what im using for some time now. I play it in a off+ dyjas power (donic) and with a Super Anti from butterfly. I twiddle to confuse the opponent, and i can say Razka 7 works pretty well on both sides. The only thing i would recommend is, to get it with a thickness over 2.0 (2.1/2.2 in preference) , because otherwise, it will bottom down in some shots. That said, imo, it is one of the best rubbers atm, being a perfect upgrade from a Mark V back in the days.
@@jasperellustrismo thanks for advice, after a while with soft rubber on forehand I decided to try rakza z, which is a hybrid rubber and this works perfectly for me becaue it was really really hard to counter topspin with soft rubber. My blade is flexible, so this is good for me because I think rakza z is a chinese rubber for beginners because it has a little more bounce to it. Yes, I had to hit harder with H3, but I got this bad habit of hitting with the arm to compensate for not being able to create enough force to engage the rubber. It might not be the rubbers fault, but this is what happened at least. I am still working hard on getting a proper topspin, 9 months into my table tennis journey. Most players at my level get crushed by a hard flat hit to the right position, so I tend to fall into the habit of using this flat stretched out arm stroke now. There is lots and lots of videos on my channel of me playing, marked with the date of recording.
Hello Teacher, I'm playing with ZJK zlc, Tngy 05 2.1 on the forehand and Nittaku Moristo SP 2.0 on the backhand. What do you think? I have a Speed 90, could it be suitable for the short dot? Greetings
I am looking for a good defensive blade. I noticed your review did not mention any. I currently have the 729 Black Whirlwind, but when I took my rubber offer it splintered the blade a bit and I question its long term durability. What do you recommend?
Thanks coach,can I know ma Lin carbon (off) or ma Lin soft carbon (-off) if players want to upgrade from ma lin extra offensive(off) sir? The pic shows ma Lin carbon(off) but u explain about ma Lin soft carbon(-off).is ma Lin soft carbon(-off) is faster than ma Lin extra offensive(off)? Between two carbon blades which one is better? Thanks sir
Im a beginner player with some basic level of topspin strokes. I want to use the Primorac blade. What rubbers would you recommend for forehand and backhand and what thickness? As my first bat I got recommended a off- blade with sriver fx rubbers on both sides. But isnt sriver fx too soft rubber?
I have a question. I'm from India and play penhold grip. I used to play penhold on the shakehand racket since its almost impossible to get penhold racket in India. I even resorted to cutting off a part of the shakehand racket to make the handle shorter and have improved a lot since then. But i want to improve more so my question is how can i chose a proper penhold racket? Please help
hello Coach, until now, I playing with Stiga Titanium WRB 7.6, is it still Worth it for Plastic balls now days. need your advice. Manythanks Coach @PingSunday Emrat Thich
Butterfly Primorac, Stiga Clipper, Nittaku Acoustic, and Nittaku Violine would be on his list for sure. The best blades for beginners are all wood (no carbon fiber), flexible, medium weight, and from well-known manufacture.
Any suggestions for a nittaku acoustic blade ??? Ive tried hurricane 3 , MX-P (found it a bit too stiff) Tibhar Nainmor (bit too soft and need effort in shots) I play all round style and any help is much appreciated
I use Victas TDE on FH and Rakza Z on BH on acoustic LG... if you want softer rubbers, there are a lot of them..., h8 soft is very good; for BH: h8 soft, fastarc g1, rakza Z... very good.
@@stephenlee9512 thanks for responding.. much appreciated ! I found hurricane with or without the booster somewhat unforgiving as my technique isn't spot on. The last few months I've used Fastarc G-1 and it's been great. I've also become quite a fan of chopping on the backhand so my quest continues!
Hi coach. Great piece of information in the video. I have resumed playing after 10 years. Currently I am playing with Tibhar Carbon shot. I am not liking it because I am missing the feel and weight of the blade which I was using long ago. Please suggest.
Hey coach! I started playing table tennis 6 months ago. I bought a Palio Expert 2.0 to begin with. I want to upgrade to a new blade. What’s your recommendation if I want to develop an offensive playing style? Carbon? Or should I find a better all wood blade like Tibhar with medium-hard rubbers like Rakza Z extra hard in the FH and Rakza X in the BH(max thickness both sides)
Hi Coach, I'm begginer and love to watch your videos. So in all that info you gave in your videos about Chinese philosophy and European philosophy ,i find that Chinese philosophy is right one and for start i want to have that kind of setup in my first racket. In this video one of racket you mentioned is Ma Lin extra offensive with both backend and forehand side with yasaka mark v. So I'm little bit confused. Do you mean yasaka mark V classic on both side? What thickness for backend and for forehand? Sorry for so much question. Regards, Denis
I've owned/used the following blades that were listed in the video: 1. Nittaku Acoustic - I owned the Tenaly version. The sound, feeling, and balance in the hand is the best out of all the blades I've ever used. After switching to other faster blades, this felt slow. Luckily, there was a Tenaly Acoustic Carbon Inner version. This one was perfect for me. 2. Butterfly Viscaria - has a great chirping sound when looping with this blade and some Rubbers. It's very light and pretty balanced. However, I noticed I overshoot with this blade. One other thing I didn't like was that the edges were sharp and can not be sanded down due to the outer carbon layer. I liked this blade for the performance and feel but couldn't get over the sharp edges. 3. Stiga Clipper Wood - this blade is very thick. A bit heavy too. I was told the ones being manufactured today are NOT the same as the ones used in the 1990s/2000s. Sound and feeling is average. I didn't like it. 4. DHS Hurricane Long 5 - this blade felt light but it may have just been the balance. The sound on this blade seemed a bit "hollow". This alone turned me off on this blade.

I´m currently using Timo Boll Spirit (96g) with Tenergy 05 on both sides, but would like to go down in the weight to get more conrtol out of the racquet.
What i like is the heavy one shot topspin ball i can play with that combination but it feels just a bit heavy in general.
I also would like to play a blade, which is a little bit softer for opening topspins without getting a too high launch angle.
Is there any blade you would recommend? I was thinking about the Viscaria or Lin Gaoyuang ALC.
And in general: would oyu reccomend softer rubbers on harder blades and harder rubbers on softer blades? How does that affect the launch angle and the feel?
I´m a bit worried, that the fast forehand topspins will get a too high launch angle wiht a soft blade even with a hard rubber.
and what do you think about the mentioned blades for my favours?
From my own personal experience... The heavy blad is perfect cause it prevents error like opening you're bat to Mutch during topspin brushes... And the blade u play iz perfect especially for speed .... Cause it's quite quick... So I'd Rather you combine that wit rubber with a Mutch lower throwing velocity and then acceleration would be even amplified cause of your blade
Soo if you thinking lighter blade ... But u concerned about your topspin and throw angle ... And speed... Then I'll recommend u try a blade with carbon fiber Plies In the wood ... That makes it Mutch lighter but way faster than just wood .... Thn simpley add a nice hard forhand rubber without the high throw angle to back all that Pace up ...Soo thn maby add a softer more Tacky, grippier backhand rubber to confuse you're aponent when dowing your backhand chop... & Your backhand topspin also even... Cause from the backhand roll to the forehand topspin 🔥 the speed difference will almost make it impossible to react quick enough...
U understand??
You talked about "ma lin extra offensive" and "ma lin soft carbon" (who is faster). Can you tell me the différence with an other wood : "ma lin carbon" (not soft version?
Hello,
Thank you for this graet Video, I learnd very much.
But how i shoud know wich blade on your list suits best for me?
I am a european tabeltennis Player and play for 3 years now, and ask the guy on the table Tennis Shop for a raket, He rekomentet Dinic Person Power AR wich is a quit offensiv blade, an He said i shod kombind with a Forhand rubber with strong kik Effekt and a Bakhand Rubber that is very spinni and Hard.
If got a feeling that the raket is to Hard for me.
Do you rakoment chaning the blade of the rubbers, and waht u rakoment for each?
Go for all dhs, and use booster. Then you will never cry for any expensive rubber. You will have no more desire on expensive tensor or japanese rubbers
I use Donic Waldner Senso V1 with Baracuda y forehand and Hurriacan in backhand.
But I recomend use Baracuda in backhand it's a Good Ruber cor backhand
Exactly. Barracuda is a very good bh rubber with a lot of feeling
Is razer L9 good racket for intermediate players? Please answer to me
What about Yinhe T-11+ with DHS Skyline TG3 for a begginner?
I have old butterfly des douglas......wht carakter this blades flexible or not...tk's
14:07 Hello and thank you for your advice and help. I have a question, since you recommend all wood paddles, how come the butterfly primorac you show on the video is the one with carbon?. I’m a little confused there because I also believe all wood is better but the one you show has carbon. I feel the carbon makes it lighter and I kind of like a little weighted blade.
Primorac Carbón no es una hoja adecuada, es más rápida que Viscaria, con menos control. A nivel profesional Viscaria obstenta los primeros puestos en el ranking mundial, directamente o con sus respectivas versiones. Para comenzar a desarrollarse en un nivel medio es adecuada una madera más lenta que Viscaria.
Primorac Carbón está fuera de lugar.
Which is the best tt all-round blade? Rubber?
What do you think about the DHS Hurricane 301?
Hello, pls make a video with the best pre-made paddles
hii...sir
i already wach your youtube chanel for blade table tenis..do you have a blade for sale sir ? for second hand.
can i have thanks from indonesia.
hello coach. how about the p900?
I just started to play again table tennis after 30 years, was an intermediate good player. I have chosen a Stiga offensive classic master grip, equipped with two/mm yasaka mark 5 on both sides. Though, control is quite good at high speed but at lowe speed especially backhand is a disaster, balls fly all over the place. What do you think of this combination?
Since it’s very frustrating to play like this, I have now bought a blade Yasaka defender, to be equipped with 2.2mm galaxy mars medium for the forehand and 2mm gewo mega flex control on the backhand, I am looking for control first. What do you think of this setup? Thanks
Offendive Classic de Stiga, prueba con MXP, pienso que te irá bien. Si es muy rápida, prueba Fastarc G1. Ya me contarás. Tú problema es debido a que juegas gomas inadecuadas después de la prohibición del pegamento rápido. En normas generales las gomas clásicas como Mark V y Sriver-L, entre otras, son gomas que pasaron a la historia del TT.
Got a Stiga Clipper WRB version. Hardness and weight is fair enough but the weight shifts to the head with the rubbers attached. Good for top spinning and attacking but no so much for chopping or defending.
What about Tibhar Force pro black edition with 2 Aurus sounds 1.9mm
Number 9. Is it stiga offensive classic or allround classic? 17:30 17:45
What if I’m a pen hold player? What kind of racket should I get
Is Nittaku Violin also good like Nittaku Acoustic?
Hi Coach! Excelent movie. Can you compare Nittaku Acoustic to Tibhar Stratus Powerwood and Butterlfy Petr Korbel JP in terms of speed, spin, flexibility, feeling, hardness and handle size? I have Korbel JP 92g and Stratus Powerwood 84g with ST handles. Second blade have perfect handle size for me (maybe because stratus is 6.2 mm). Have Nittaku Acoustic similar handle or is thinner?
acoustic handle LG is better than stratus, a bit bigger, and the blade is better overal, obviously.
Nittaku Acoustic Carbon Inner
2x Nittaku Fastarc G1
I am considering changing to Victas Liam Pitchford
Nittaku Tenaly Acoustic FTW!!! Yasaka Sweden Extra is also a nice option for 40 usd.
Love the Sweden Extra. A great value for the control and performance.
Surprising but agree, Yasaka Ma Lin Extra is a very good blade. Unfortunately, it was a tiny bit fast for me so using Yasaka Ma Lin instead (off-) with Sriver (yes, very old/slow style but I have no problem handling all types of rubbers). I play at around 1800 level and have won official Maryland U1800/U1900 events pre-kids period of my life. Haha, y'all play as much as you can before kids.
How is stiga carbonado 290, coach?
I'm now using a Nittaku OuterCarbon ST With AK47 RedMax 169grs . My Best Combo Yet Its AMAZING 😎
Ist the Nittaku Acoustic faster than the Ma Lin extra offensive? I can't decide wich one to choose but maybe the slower one would be better for me.
not really, but acoustic is more flexible and better for topspin, looping... the best wood blade I know
Nittaku Acoustic / Sptear / Septear - Lead all paired with Andro Hexer Duro 42deg / Hexer Grip 45deg /Hexer power grip 47deg or rasanter 45/ rasanter 48
Please Review Butterfly Revoldia CNF
I tried playing with hurricane 3 neo og a stiga offensive classic after watching this video, but I concluded after a few months that it was too difficult to develop that way ... so I went back to soft yasaka rubbers on forehand that was recommended to me by an expert shop (former top european player). I think its important to listen to the coach in your club and not get too excited by youtubers that get viewers by being provocative. I am considering to try rakza 7 on forehand in the long run tho, so I can get some kind of middle ground between the super hard chinese rubber and the dwell time of the soft euro style. Maybe the best advice I can give to others it to experiment with different rubbers and blades and see what you like yourself.
Razka 7 is what im using for some time now. I play it in a off+ dyjas power (donic) and with a Super Anti from butterfly. I twiddle to confuse the opponent, and i can say Razka 7 works pretty well on both sides. The only thing i would recommend is, to get it with a thickness over 2.0 (2.1/2.2 in preference) , because otherwise, it will bottom down in some shots.
That said, imo, it is one of the best rubbers atm, being a perfect upgrade from a Mark V back in the days.
maybe you are hitting too thinly. try hitting hard when trying to spin the ball (somehow counterintuitive, but that's how blade flex works)
@@jasperellustrismo thanks for advice, after a while with soft rubber on forehand I decided to try rakza z, which is a hybrid rubber and this works perfectly for me becaue it was really really hard to counter topspin with soft rubber. My blade is flexible, so this is good for me because I think rakza z is a chinese rubber for beginners because it has a little more bounce to it. Yes, I had to hit harder with H3, but I got this bad habit of hitting with the arm to compensate for not being able to create enough force to engage the rubber. It might not be the rubbers fault, but this is what happened at least. I am still working hard on getting a proper topspin, 9 months into my table tennis journey. Most players at my level get crushed by a hard flat hit to the right position, so I tend to fall into the habit of using this flat stretched out arm stroke now. There is lots and lots of videos on my channel of me playing, marked with the date of recording.
@@jasperellustrismo thats the thing, you gotta hit it with the bat a bit " opened" to transport the ball safely.
Hello Teacher, I'm playing with ZJK zlc, Tngy 05 2.1 on the forehand and Nittaku Moristo SP 2.0 on the backhand. What do you think? I have a Speed 90, could it be suitable for the short dot? Greetings
I am looking for a good defensive blade. I noticed your review did not mention any. I currently have the 729 Black Whirlwind, but when I took my rubber offer it splintered the blade a bit and I question its long term durability. What do you recommend?
Sword 309 Chop is a very good defensive blade, it's not expensive and its durability is good. But be aware it's quite fast.
Dhs must be there, may be some additions to HL5
Thanks coach,can I know ma Lin carbon (off) or ma Lin soft carbon (-off) if players want to upgrade from ma lin extra offensive(off) sir? The pic shows ma Lin carbon(off) but u explain about ma Lin soft carbon(-off).is ma Lin soft carbon(-off) is faster than ma Lin extra offensive(off)? Between two carbon blades which one is better? Thanks sir
The soft carbon has a softer outer layer than the normal carbon, it is better that's why it's recommended by emrathick.
Im a beginner player with some basic level of topspin strokes. I want to use the Primorac blade. What rubbers would you recommend for forehand and backhand and what thickness?
As my first bat I got recommended a off- blade with sriver fx rubbers on both sides. But isnt sriver fx too soft rubber?
I have a question. I'm from India and play penhold grip. I used to play penhold on the shakehand racket since its almost impossible to get penhold racket in India. I even resorted to cutting off a part of the shakehand racket to make the handle shorter and have improved a lot since then. But i want to improve more so my question is how can i chose a proper penhold racket? Please help
Yasaka Ma lin extra offensive cpen handle.
Best penhold racket of all tima.
What are the best blades for defensive players?
What is your opinion about Kido 7P RTG Premium? I was thinking about buying it. Thank you for your time
Is it a good blade?
hello Coach,
until now, I playing with Stiga Titanium WRB 7.6,
is it still Worth it for Plastic balls now days.
need your advice.
Manythanks Coach @PingSunday Emrat Thich
WRB 7.6 has too vibration I think. I prefer ALC blades.
YESS, my blade is in the thumbnail (tibhar stratus wood )
amazing blade for its price (usd 43), is almost as good as nittaku acoustic LG (usd 171)
I also used spw, recently bought Timo boll alc and suffering from it as a ameteur, i want to go back to spw
TIBHAR Xeon Sensitec with Yasaka Rakza 7 (th) and old good Meteor 71-2 (bh) 😎 that's all I need :)
I use Viscaria with Hurricane 8 on forhand and Vega x on backhand
What the feelings from viscaria with chinees rubbers?
You mention Stiga Offensive Classic, but how does this compare to DHS Hurricane 301?
DHS Hurricane 301 is an inner carbon blade that's for more advanced players that already have their technique developed.
You should make a list of the best starting blades. I wonder if Donic Appelgren Allplay Senso V2 would make that list.
Butterfly Primorac, Stiga Clipper, Nittaku Acoustic, and Nittaku Violine would be on his list for sure. The best blades for beginners are all wood (no carbon fiber), flexible, medium weight, and from well-known manufacture.
@@ivanivan4155 I started with Stiga Offensive Classic and have now played for one year.
Any suggestions for a nittaku acoustic blade ??? Ive tried hurricane 3 , MX-P (found it a bit too stiff) Tibhar Nainmor (bit too soft and need effort in shots)
I play all round style and any help is much appreciated
I use Victas TDE on FH and Rakza Z on BH on acoustic LG... if you want softer rubbers, there are a lot of them..., h8 soft is very good; for BH: h8 soft, fastarc g1, rakza Z... very good.
@@marcosguglielmetti thank you for the advice
Use booster on your hurricane
@@stephenlee9512 thanks for responding.. much appreciated !
I found hurricane with or without the booster somewhat unforgiving as my technique isn't spot on. The last few months I've used Fastarc G-1 and it's been great. I've also become quite a fan of chopping on the backhand so my quest continues!
Hi coach. Great piece of information in the video. I have resumed playing after 10 years. Currently I am playing with Tibhar Carbon shot. I am not liking it because I am missing the feel and weight of the blade which I was using long ago. Please suggest.
Go for something like Stiga Infinity VPS, you will love it! Tons of feeling with a great enough power. You will not regret it :)
Hey coach! I started playing table tennis 6 months ago. I bought a Palio Expert 2.0 to begin with. I want to upgrade to a new blade. What’s your recommendation if I want to develop an offensive playing style? Carbon? Or should I find a better all wood blade like Tibhar with medium-hard rubbers like Rakza Z extra hard in the FH and Rakza X in the BH(max thickness both sides)
can you recommend the palio expert?
@@felix2805 yes, if you are starting at the sport. Good value.
@@diegokro i am intermediate, longtime Hobby Player, but Not Professional!
@@felix2805 you may need something faster
Hello sr..can you help me sr?can you give me 3fastest blade of butterfly today..thank you
Hi Coach,
I'm begginer and love to watch your videos. So in all that info you gave in your videos about Chinese philosophy and European philosophy ,i find that Chinese philosophy is right one and for start i want to have that kind of setup in my first racket. In this video one of racket you mentioned is Ma Lin extra offensive with both backend and forehand side with yasaka mark v. So I'm little bit confused. Do you mean yasaka mark V classic on both side? What thickness for backend and for forehand? Sorry for so much question.
Regards,
Denis
I've owned/used the following blades that were listed in the video:
1. Nittaku Acoustic - I owned the Tenaly version. The sound, feeling, and balance in the hand is the best out of all the blades I've ever used. After switching to other faster blades, this felt slow. Luckily, there was a Tenaly Acoustic Carbon Inner version. This one was perfect for me.
2. Butterfly Viscaria - has a great chirping sound when looping with this blade and some Rubbers. It's very light and pretty balanced. However, I noticed I overshoot with this blade. One other thing I didn't like was that the edges were sharp and can not be sanded down due to the outer carbon layer. I liked this blade for the performance and feel but couldn't get over the sharp edges.
3. Stiga Clipper Wood - this blade is very thick. A bit heavy too. I was told the ones being manufactured today are NOT the same as the ones used in the 1990s/2000s. Sound and feeling is average. I didn't like it.
4. DHS Hurricane Long 5 - this blade felt light but it may have just been the balance. The sound on this blade seemed a bit "hollow". This alone turned me off on this blade.
hello seems you have experience on popular blades, what blade can you recommend then sir?
you can sand the viscaria wings if that's what you mean(i think)
