Which rubber do you find the hardest to control? I find Bryce really hard to control. Another question is why arent there any high level players that use short pips for the forehand? Such as speedy p.o.

i think almana is quite difficult to control... may be because i dont speed glue... so dont really "eat the ball".. however.. its really fast...

Except that now he spends his time yelling at Wang Hao and Chen Qi, his skill has dropped so much he lost to a no-name girl.

I think the reason that few world class men players use short pips these days is that at their level, speed needs to be combined with SPIN and RHYTHM to make your game lethal. In the women's game it is still ok to use short pips because the spin that top women players can generate is still far less than what the likes of Timo Boll or Ma Lin can make. But in the mens game, speed alone is not enough without the VARIATIONS in spin, together with speed and the changes in rhythm. That is a strong reason why you don't find world class short pips men players these days.

Of course he uses pips  . he is world famous for being the worlds best server in spite of having used pips, although he WAS using TSP spinpips until they were banned lol. then he used clippa, which is why his results were so poor at the 2001 world championships, he lost to chiang peng lung, sure hes a good player, but not liu guoliang calibre. |

IMO harder rubbers are easier to control because I have more feeling with them.

At that time, right before an accident that he seemingly never fully recovered from (at least his game didn't) chiang was playing very very well. He also played in the consolation match of the world cup in 01. He beat ma wenge 4-0 in the quarters. |
