Neither TBS nor MM are good at looping close range where most people play. They are good for looping far away from the table though. The arch on these blades is significantly less than the TB ZLF or most wood blades.

With T05 it's fine, but with a lot of rubbers the flatter shots on the TBS tend to go off the table.

If you want a good allaround looping setup, get T05 on TB ZLF. It's a looper's heaven. Every ball lands on the table even if you are using bad technique.

+1.  Yes,  that's call technique. it does take skill to land the ball on the table.

I agrees too, but I am satisfied with my technique because whenever I find some mistake in any of my technique, I start improving it.

ZLF looks better I think because of its control part as jt99sf said and forehand I think T05 would be the best..

Looking for advice for backhand sheet T65 or Brice ?

I Got good control at my backhand side, so I don't really take care of control, I only need top spin skill and speed because I usually rolls or brushes the ball from my backhand side(small top spins above the table) which usually successfully lands the opponent's table. and that always give me another chance to hit power top spin or loop.

Waiting For Reply.

Thanks

I heard that xiom pro 2.0 have less speed/spin then tenergy ?

Is that try ?

so now 4 options are their : t64/t05/brice/xiom vega

I think t05 would be better because of its sponginess  ? what's difference between 05 and 64 ?

waiting for reply.

thx

anyone yet compared them both for looping ?

yes it can be confusing because both are good blades and it comes down to personal preference, hence the difference in opinion, maybe some of your club members have these blades then borrow then and do some drills and you choose what suits your game well

It really depend on your personal preference.
Borrow from others and try it yourself.

yeah I finally decided to go with Timo Boll ZLF
and for forehand side Tenergy 05 as it got speed/spin/ more control as I seeks for control at forehand side.

Now I need some advice for my backhand side.

I got good control their and hits usually hits small top spins from above the table (and stays  closer to table) but when I receive top spin at my backhand side, I usually blocks it. By small top spins I meant rolling the ball from backhand side whenever someone give me backspin at backhand side. so that I get next ball to hit a bit harder with power.

Waiting For a good advice like I got for forehand :)

thanks

thanks

did you try to use T05 on BH? some say its too hard for a BH rubber but i prefer T05 on both FH and BH, i tried using T64 IMHO its softer and faster than 05, do you prefer a softer or a harder rubber for your BH?

Try Genius on your BH ... it has medium hard sponge, I've tried it with TB ZLF, and it was remarkable with it and Photino as well ... Good luck Big smile

fx would be wise for a backhand rubber.. I personally dont like t05 or fx for forehand unless you are trained to use it. :)

I only have one club in my city and that's all I can pay for.. no possibilities for leaving this city and go somewhere else to get good coaching of it.. as I know I play this game regularly but not professionally, I know I can defeat almost all professional players in my city or even in my state.. but still I compete them them only once in a year, I play this game because I love to play it :) not for winning tournaments or something like that, but buying such rackets because I want to enhance my game..
