You Asked
i was just wandering what combo's you guys use?
and Jeff Plumb said...
Hi Kevin,
I use a Butterfly Primorac-FL blade with Sriver 2.1mm on both sides. I find Sriver a great attacking rubber without being too fast so that you still have enough control when blocking and returning serve. By using speed glue with Sriver, you retain a good level of control but you can really get a lot of power on your attacking strokes and it makes counter-spinning your opponents loops a little easier.
What do other people use? Post your own combinations below and let us know why you think it is a good combination.

I use a Yasaka Ma Lin carbon blade and Yasaka Mark V rubbers (max thickness) on both my backhand and forehand. I am an agressive player and like very much the Yasaka products.

Blade: JZ Excalibur 5.0 (german manufacturer, made of balsa/carbon)
rubber fh: Stag Explosive 2,2mm
rubber bh: Kokutaku Tuple 007 1,8mm
Very light and very good control with enough acceleration for attacking

Hi Kevin,I use anything that I can get my hands on at the moment. I have a very old Power Drive blade that I got in 1990! Still feels great, but a lot of the younger players laugh at me for using what they commonly refer to as "The Beast".

I use a Butterfly Petr Korbel with cream MRS on FH and 802-40 short pips on bh. The cream MRS is a mild tacky rubber with a soft sponge great for looping and serving and I use 802-40 which are spinny short pimples to return serves, smash and block mostly

what should I replace?
Chris Unknown commented...
on the 10-Jul-2008 12:22:13 PM
Try replacing your rubbers with Mark V, Sriver EL, Skyline 3 or Hurricane 2. Or if you have a wider budget, Nittaku Hammond, Bryce, Omega or you could even try Andro\'s Plasma series.
I use a M. Maze blade, with a Mark V/Sriver El on backhand, and DHS Skyline 3 on forehand.

Is it a tradeoff between the thickness of the rubber and the control that you get with it ?
What is the ideal thickness if my game is more attacking and top spin is being one of the powerful weapons of mine.

Actually I broke my racket that day in the tournament and I had to buy something cheap.

I just got my new bat today.
It is a Stiga Hybrid Wood with Yasaka Mark V 2.00mm on both sides.
I find the Yasaka Mark V's Rubbers are very spinny when there is hard contact. The Stiga Hybrid Wood is a great blade because the sweet spot is big and you get the explosive contact with the ball.

I have a Tibhar Rapid Carbon blade and Tibhar Rapid 2.0mm rubbers on both sides.
Its a very light bat with good control on both attacking and blocking:)
Lionel Unknown commented...
on the 06-Mar-2009 03:05:42 AM
Hi Michael,
Good to know you are using Tibhar Rapid. If from 1 to 10, how do rate it for brushing-oriented looping (more brushing, and less knocking) against the incoming heavy back-spin ball? 10 meaning fairly easy, without much consideration in terms of racquet-ball contact angle, and not needing swinging hard and vertically upward to get the ball over the net. And 1 being very hard, and almost all attempts get to the net.
In short, is this rubber a High Throw angle Rubber (which is close to 10) or low throw (which is close to 1)?
Thanks, am considering to get one Tibhar Rapid or Rapid D-Tecs Soft.....

Charles Unknown commented...
on the 08-Apr-2009 02:41:24 AM
I changed from Primorac with Srivers to Timo Boll Spirit with Srivers. The reason why I have Srivers on TBS is that I need to get used to the feel of the blade first before I try anything else. I know that Primorac to TBS is a big leap in terms of power, spin and technology but I am confident that I reached my potential with Primorac and need to transfer to another blade. I'll also change my rubbers from Sriver to Tenergy since I read reviews saying Sriver and Tenergy have some similar characteristics.If Tenergy will be too fast for me, I'll just do an experiment. Remove the topsheet of Tenergy and Sriver and stick the topsheet of Sriver to Spring Sponge. The reason is that Tenergy has High Tension which means that the topsheet isn't Sriver but Sriver G2. So if I replace the topsheet with Sriver, that will slow down things and still get Spring Sponge. If my experiment is a sucess, I'll write it here.

i get asked a lot of questions on the butterfly inspirit i use it on my back hand for people who like to smash i just have to worry about hitting the net and the angle because the heavy topspin just doesn\'t effect the rubber and its not long pimples so good for attacking to
Lionel Unknown commented...
on the 08-Apr-2009 03:34:08 PM
Hi Mario and Jackson....
Good to know both of you are using some rubbers which I am researching...
Now to Mario... Tibhar Nimbus Sound --> how's the throw angle, high throw or low throw? If high throw then is it very easy to loop heavy backspin balls?
Now to Jackson... Donic Coppa JO Gold --> same question above, throw angle, high or low? If high throw then is it very easy to loop heavy backspin balls?
Thanks in advance to both!
Jackson Warren Unknown commented...
on the 08-Apr-2009 04:20:38 PM
umm the donic coppa does have some lift on it and maybe sometimes to much because it is a faster rubber and so you defintly should use it if your more of a spin loop than to of more of a flat hit so get it if you like top spin and side spin combined but if you just have more of a flat hit dont get it
Mario Unknown commented...
on the 08-Apr-2009 08:50:14 PM
Because Tibhar Nimbus Sound has speed glue incorporated in the rubber, the ball bounces high . I think for me that it is quite easy to loop the ball, but I don't know how other players might find it.
Mario Unknown commented...
on the 08-Apr-2009 08:51:48 PM
Its baisicaly like Jackson\'s rubber.
Lionel Unknown commented...
on the 09-Apr-2009 05:31:25 AM
Thanks a lot Mario and Jackson,
Both your answers are affirmative to me because indeed, my playing style is exactly a thin brushing spin loop category. I always play with top spin using friction brushing rather than knocking onto the ball during looping, thus I am quite glad either of the rubbers you are playing now is suitable to my style. All the best to both of you in your experience with the equipment you have.... Thanks...
Thus, I think I might be using a combo like this..,
Blade: Currently Butterfly Chinese Real
FH (RED) : Donic Coppa JO (either platin or gold depending on the sponge hardness, I will go for the softer sponge considering my style of brushing spin loop)
BH (BLACK) : Currently Friendship 729 Geospin Tacky

When you want to become a bit more serious playing table tennis like playing at clubs and tournaments or if even if you want to improve your skill, having a custom bat is much better.

I originally had a $20 US premade which was crap. Then I upgraded to a Butterfly Senshu premade which had 2 mm Flextra on each side. Now I ripped off the Flextra and added Joola Mambo 2 mm to the forehand and Butterfly Sriver FX 2.1 mm to the backhand. I am still getting used to the new rubbers but I can see the progression in the quality of the rubber in each step.

Hi guys, I live in melbourne australia, will be in the 2010 junior squad coached by s.gerada next year.now i am different because at my age no one plays like me.
I use:
Butterfly Cutlass
FH: Tenergy 05 2.1mm
BH: TSP Curl P1-R
My style of play is a defensive choping game with an offensive forehand when the time is right. I tend to copy the style from Joo Se Hyuk. From his motion to his footwork.

interesting combination!
I did play around with the TSP Curl P1-R once upon a time. Do you use OX? Pretty cool being on the junior squad, and having the opportunity to be coached by Simon! Love watching videos of Simon's matches, and especially his 'cho'! ;)
Style of Joo Se Hyuk? Fantastic! Would be fun to watch your matches too. If I were a teenager again, I wouldn't mind trying to model my game after him. Need a lot of fitness I expect.
Good luck!

Setup 1:
Donic Senso Appelgren Allplay (Chinese pen); FH:Donic Vario Big Slam; BH: XIOM Yanus DF
Setup 2:
XIOM Fuga (Chinese pen); FH: Andro Plasma 380; BH: JUIC 999 Elite Ultima
I'm a Chinese pen style attacker and I found that my earlier setup, with a Wang Hao blade and Hurricane 2 and Skyline 2 rubbers, was a bit heavy, and not really forgiving enough for my level. So I went totally the other way, and went for slower rubbers. The Appelgren is really light and well-balanced, and the wood is pretty soft. The Vario Big Slam feels great on it. I should probably have put the same rubbers on the other racket so that I could compare the blades. The Yanus DF feels OK on the backhand, but I'm thinking perhaps going for Vario Big Slam on both might make things easier.

Hey Alois, Jeff and PingSkill supporters,
I\'m using RITC 729 2040 Blade, DHS Neo Hurricane 2 on the forehand and Palio CJ8000 Biotech 36-38 degrees on backhand. I have an looping + counter driving/attacking style, and plays a mixture of passiveness and aggressiveness, level of aggressivness depending on the opponent and timing, but most of the time aggressive.
andrew brand commented...
on the 31-Dec-2009 05:16:11 AM
up until now ive always used very cheap chinese rubbers, now im upgrading. ordered geospin tacky 2.0mm for my forehand (im learning to loop) and am open to suggestions for my backhand which i do a variety of shots from punching, to looping, might go for tenergy 25 on the backhand but not sure yet as it may be a bit quick for me at this stage. also considering yasaka mark v. anyone got any suggestions.

andrew brand commented...
on the 11-Jan-2010 07:49:22 AM
well i got my new rubbers, and after a couple of sessions i can say i am very impressed, i put geospin tacky on my forehand which feels absolutely awesome, i can put so much spin on my loops and chops now, i put yasaka mark v on the backhand because the previous tacky rubber didnt suit my backhand, this new one feels great and i can now do backhand drives in a more forward movement instead of before i had to lift almost vertically like a loop just to get it over the net, this caused a lot of aches in my shoulder, and couldnt sustain a long backhand to backhand rally. but now it is much easier to use, just have to get used to pushing on it, but that never was a strong part of my game.
Ji-Soo Woo commented...
on the 11-Jan-2010 04:51:06 PM
I generally like to use a faster rubber for my backhand (I use Pryde) because the backhand stroke is more controlled, compact and consistent than the forehand stroke so it can handle a faster rubber. And also, having a faster rubber on the backhand side gives you the option of counterattacking off the backhand when you've been pushed back from the table. Also, it's good not to have something too tacky for the backhand rubber because most serves are to that side.

hi everyone, especially you guys at pingskills.com! i enjoyed a lot watching your videos - especially Alois and Brett in the exhibition. The last point beats everything...
Ah, this is a forum about the blades and the rubbers we all use. Well, ok, back in the times, when I was playing, i used this combination:
a) Stiga Johannson with both Srivers, then
b) Bfly Tamca Gergely with Srivers 2.0 (as far as i remember). It was a good blade, very quick, I liked the combination with these "hall of fame" rubbers - it gave me a lot of speed, if necessary, still being able to maintain control, i am (or i was) more of an allround player type, not too aggressive.
After i finished playing tournaments i got myself an another blade, not a carbon as Tamca, it is
c) Bfly Mazunov OFF+ also with Srivers (I guess there wasn't any other rubber we could buy back then...). A stiff wood, very quick, but i personally think it has a wee bit more control than Tamca. Don't know, it's just how I feel about it.
Ok, so that's it... Good luck and God bless you all!

I use Maze Passion OFF- as bat and Bryce FX (max.) rubbers. It's quite easy to play, you have a good speed when attacking but also when blocking. The control is great, the placement of the ball can be done quite exactly :) A great racket for allrounders but also for attackers!

I use a cheap premade bat called DHS vespid
spin is excellent, spin is great and has power.
DHS 6512 rubbers on both sides(FH 1.5 mm sponge, BH 0.5)
all these for only P300(5 bucks!)

My wife is learning this sport and I need help recommending which blade and rubbers I should get for her. She plays tennis and is a bit of a "full swing" player. I would imagine a neutral / attacking blade with speedy forehand rubber and spinny back hand rubber.
By the way, I use BTY Sardius, Sriver G3 FX for forehand and Sriver G3 for backhand.

hey wana i recommend butterfly addoy. its my bat when im a beginner and its perfect for control but not much spin. you dont need spinny rubbers if ur just starting in my opinion what u need is control. hope this helps

I use GEWO Nano rubber and Cypress Buterfly penhold blade. It producеs great "sense of touch" and speed. When I tried to play with short pimps the best combination for flat attack appeared to be Viscaria Carbo Butterfly blade and Friendship 802 (2.1 mm)Rahul Ramesh commented...

My first bat was GERGELY 21-FL with yasaka marV.
This was the bat my coach bought for me when i first started my training years ago, as i have no idea about rackets at that time.
my other bats:
Primorac carbon off+
LKT zebra carbon+hinoki with BH tenergy05 and FH TG Skyline 2. This is my favorite bat as it has a very soft feel considering it is has carbon and i can adjust the sweet pot to either off-,off, or off+. As for now, i like it as off- as it gives me more control, feel with lesser speed as i can have more balls getting into the table during practice. and as i progress, i can increase the speed little by little..

Great website and very good videos. Infact, i corrected my technical mistakes by watching videos from pingskilss. Currently i am using Mark V max on forehand and backhand on Malin Carbon. Mark V is the rubber if you want to polish your TT skills and to learn proper stroke execution. I would recommend Mark V in 1.8 to 2.00 mm thickness for beginners.

Hi Samad,
The bat that we have developed is the PingSkills Rook. This is a long lasting bat that will give you excellent control and will still give you enough spin and speed to progress your strokes. You can get it through the website under the Pre-made Table Tennis Bats section.

Pankaj,
I don't know enough about the different speeds. The bat we have is the PingSkills Touch Table Tennis Bats. Both Jeff and I use this.
