1 HR AGO - I haven't played with yin he moon but I suspect bobs is spot on. However, unless you are a reasonably advanced player, some form of spinny Chinese rubber should serve you fine.Statistics: Posted by carbonman — 08 Mar 2014, 22:56 Collapse

As far as the current tests go only the seamless ball has been tested (first the Palio, then this one).roundrobin wrote:I agree. I have used the seamlesss Palio with many clubmates at my weekly round robins, some in the 2450-2550 range. They all marveled at the ease of attacking short balls and high balls (they called it "bitch-slapping" the ball), no matter how heavy the underspin was on the plastic ball. Ah, the possibilities of blasting the ball away is just endless with the new ball... Why chop it when you can just cream it... Whose who think the new ball will slow down the game are in for a real rude-awakening.But the seamless Palio ball was just a prototype, although the current seamless ball doesn't seem to play that different...

4 HRS AGO - Somehow 388d works very well on the defplay but mostly for chopping. Overall I like the talon better though. A few days ago I switched back to d-tecs in ox and for me it works than any other pip and I tested many.Statistics: Posted by Elvis56 — 08 Mar 2014, 19:54 Collapse

In my observation, most players become more careful (conservative) when they're behind, and more aggressive (risky) when they're ahead. And I'm referring to your opponent's behavior here, not your own. This is really evident when a player is up 10-7 and has two 'free' match points to blast away in. Human nature at work, I guess. But playing conservatively against your LP pushblocking style is exactly the wrong approach because it lets the LP player control the game. So the objective might be.. how do you obtain more early leads? One idea is to use your 'secret serve' in your very first service and not at 9-9 the way many players do. You could also scout your opponents before your match and exploit a discovered weakness early on (which they'll likely compensate for) to gain another early game advantage. You could also make a deliberate style change at the onset Collapse

5 HRS AGO - Author: froggerSubject: New racket needs re-gluing already!!!Posted: 03/08/2014 at 9:22am Your blade can be sealed at any time. The best time is when it's new but any time is ok. Just be sure to remove all glue and the surface is smooth. If you must use a roller use light pressure only. The sponge must have a good seal to the wood. Applying some pressure like a light book over night will help dissipate air bubbles. The process for changing rubbers can be seen on BTY website.     Collapse
