Tabletennis11 Equipment Testing Scheme for mytabletennis.net members!
Recently, many manufacturers have launched well-reviewed new blades and rubbers. 

However, we rarely can find a club player / friend with that set-up at hand for us to try out first. At my local clubs, I see most players choosing from a small standard set of blades (TB-ALC / Viscaria, IF-ZLC, TB-ZLF / IF-ZLF, Clipper and it’s variants) or rubbers (generally a Tenergy or a Hurricane). I always wished there was a way for us to test the new, good stuff.

Enter tabletennis11.com (a shop that, in my personal opinion, has been the best overall online table tennis shop over the past year in terms of product availability, customer service / communication and pricing).

Tabletennis11 would like to try out a new equipment testing scheme for myTT members in which they provide a few select blades and rubbers to us for testing.

My guess is that the success (in terms of how many products we actually get to try) of this scheme depends on how well we behave (no ‘Delgado’ – type situations please).

The general rules are as follows:

If you’re interested in testing out a certain blade & have a good, long-standing reputation at mytabletennis.net, please PM me with your name and state/country to add you to the list.

You co-ordinate with the tester before you on the list to receive the blade.

You test the blade using your rubbers and easy-to-remove water based glue. You write your review in the appropriate thread (I'll start one for each blade and put the links in here).

You then ship it quickly (after removing the WBG) to the next tester on the list at your cost (tracking number must be provided and insurance might be required depending on the blade).

Please be careful with the blade and treat it well. We especially don’t want the blade to be lost.

To begin with, I have the Nittaku Rutis Power blade available for review for mytabletennis.net members residing in the US / Canada.

If you have a good standing in the mytabletennis.net community and would like to review this blade, please send me a PM to put you on the review list.

Later next week, I hope to have some info on a few more goodies that shall become available:

Thanks to tabletennis11.com for making this possible!
