Tensor and high tension the same?

yeah long live the bryce is better unglued than hurricane II glued

so is there a consensus??
tensor =/= high tension
just for the record etc

yes, im quite awear of that event leeroy.
Sailers scared they might sail off the edge of the earth and such, etc.

I also am not that fond of bryce, glued or unglued.
I much prefer Sriver.

I also thought your BK / Maccas thing was quite well done.

While, adam/kens main point is that bryce is brilliant with out glue
And while i accept that yes - some people might like bryce with no glue

There is no way such a combination should be recomended to every player.


PS: he also talks a lot of sh*t, mostly sh*t.  Infact, all sh*t.

Note: I have never tried Bryce but the majority of all the forums I have attended claims that Bryce needs glue to work, without glue it's simply rubbish. Are they all wrong? Should we trust Adambty who claims that he alone have found the magic way of using it and that the rest should learn his techniq to master the un glued Bryce? I doubt it. If it work's for him, then that's fine for him but I for one would take the word of the majority instead of his. Everyone who has ever used speedglue on pretty much any rubber know's what it does, so claiming that Bryce or anything else (exept some of the newer powersponges) works great without glue is either utterly rubbish or proof that the person making the claim has never used speedglue.

If you like unglued Bryce it's OK. I'm sure that you are not alone with this opinion, but you have to accept the fact that most players who play on a competitive level use speed glue for a very good reason. The characteristics of speed glued Bryce and unglued Bryce are *so* different that there is no point in comparing them.
In TT you can be good with anything as long as it's good for your game.

ken/adam/wtf

your not so much lucky that we are not moderators here........

you are lucky here that the moderators dont make much impact here, and dont have such itchy trigger fingers as the dttw mods have ( and imho a itchy trigger finger is a good thing to have )

I am just posting my views. Just look at how JC, jcdi and the rest of the DTTW forumers jumping in to make fun of someone who has different opionion than them. Luckily they are not moderators here.

Having your opinion is fine. The problem is that you don't allow anybody else to have their opinion, constantly going on about how great Bryce is and putting down anybody that says otherwise. Bryce may be good for you but it isn't good for everybody. Stop destroying threads with your constant barrage of trash.

that reminds me... im gonna go chew some gum right now

Dear TT freak. I admire your boldness. I suppose you know you are leading to a dead end flaming war. It is still time to retire with dignified disdain and let this place as peaceful as it is...

Here we go again

...What? You do realise that Bryce like Hurricane 3 is meant to be dripping with speedglue? Thats the entire point of rubbers that are made for professional use. At least with H3 it can be reasonable if you stick to the table, but Bryce will simply be an overpriced slab thats outperformed in all aspects without the benefit of speedglue.

you probably dont know how to handle bryce. Shots has to be very delicate on bryce ( unglued ) to get its performance... and for that, not many people are able of. Thats why most people dont like to use bryce unglued.
