1st rule of EJing

As a recovering EJ;

Its a 12 step programme
The first step is admitting you are an EJ.....

I have been an EJ on and off for a few years. If you are going to test different equipment, make sure you do at the same venue using the same balls and table.
Otherwise different venues and balls or tables could be having a big effect on how you feel it is going.

Its the only scientific way to get a proper reading of what is going on.

I have just ordered my 15th new blade of the last 2 years.
Hopefully it will be the last.

Stiga Allround Evolution!

But what if its too slow????????????

tried a stiga allround classic carbon, thought it was horrible no feeling, might as well of used a frying pan

1st Rule of EJing:

Current setup not working - Ignore all opinions and reviews and buy something new to help...

Yes, it's an epidemic...

That's what I thought at first. It's actually too fast for me with two T05s attached. It is probably the overall weight of the assembled racket. Alternatively, Viscaria and Freitas play a little slower with the same rubber. I bought the Evolution looking for better feeling in my push game, which I got. Looping with the Evo is unreal. So much power and spin.

What was wrong with your Primorac Carbon?

I see no hint of recovery.

I would love to EJ more but there just isn't enough playing time to get truly familiar with different blade and rubber combinations.

no i'm going to use this blade for 2 months at least before I make a decision

No wonder you change equipment so much. And no wonder you are so stubborn when people tell you to stop. And you kinda lied when you said you used the same equipment for many years without pointing out you didn't know how to loop when you did.

I had the same experience when I started playing years ago. Today, I EJ because it is cheaper than buying cars, not because I am under any illusion it will make me play better.

to be honest I do sort of like ejing sometimes too, it is fun too try different equipment sometimes

I was kidding, I just selected the next higher blade in the Stiga speed ranking

Going Tonight with 5 blades to try

I used to loose against a 70x and he could not loop or move when I was 20x and my level was about 2300-2400.

I am over 35 now but I don't have to loop or move to beat some youngsters

WHY MUST BE LOOP???
