[[Applications are closed. If you are still interested but not yet on the lists, I can still add you to the end of the list. Be aware, however, that the blade may never reach you (read the rules below to know why). These are the updated lists. Blades are with users in bold. Underlined users bought the blades, ending the testing:
Hey NEXY fans, Oscar Moon (user Nexy in this forum) would like to collect some updated reviews with the new plastic ball for certain "classic" Nexy blades. Here's the deal: All US and Canadian resident users may apply (*) as testers for up to two blades. I will send the blades to first randomly-chosen testers. Testers commit to post a review (**) based on playing with the new plastic ball. After posting their review will have the option either to buy the blade at about 70% discount or ship the blade to the next tester at their expense. Details: - one sample of the following blades is offered for testing:
More information and reviews of these blades are available http://www.mytabletennis.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=47778" rel="nofollow - here . If you'd have a US or Canadian address (*) and like to test one blade, post in this thread (no PM please) and specify which one. - You need to be well-known in this forum (non-binding criterion: roughly one week per $ of the discounted price of the blades, and at least one post per week) or someone who can vouch for you. - You may sign up for up to two blades. You can only buy one blade. - You can sign up until October 17, 23h59 CEST (that's UTC+2). - After that, I will finalise the lists of candidates for each blade and pick a random first tester on each list (see the next post for details). - I will send the blades for free to the first tester on each list. - Testers glue rubbers on the blades, test the rackets, and post a fair review on this forum (**). - IMPORTANT: reviews need to be based on playing with the new plastic balls (please indicate which ball in your review). - Each tester then decides whether to buy the blade or send it to the next tester (with traceable shipping and is at the current tester's expense). - If the blade reaches the last tester and he does not want it, the last tester ships it back to me. - The price for the test blades in USD is Calix ($50), Calix II ($50), Chedech ($70), Peterpan ($25), Rubicon ($35); that's about 70% off the price at nexy.com. I will collect the money via PayPal and transfer it to Nexy after the test action is completed. Note: the blades are currently new, but I will put a thin coat of lacquer on them and slightly sand the wings before shipping. If you have questions, please post them publicly in this thread. Others may be interested, as well. Traceable intercontinental shipping is expensive, so I have decided to run this promotion on one continent only. Since I've ran other promotions in Europe, it seemed fair to give North America a chance, this time. (**) I will provide links for the reviews in a following post/update (see red lines at the top). Updates: - deadline extended to one day before the lottery draw. - slightly edited blade descriptions. - testers may apply for up to two blades. - there is only one blade per type, so as soon as one testers buys it, the testing ends. - provided link for reviews (see red lines at the top) ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG.

I will post the random selection process here. My current idea is to create a circular list of testers in the order in which they apply and then select one at random, based on a specific lottery drawing (e.g. the German lottery 6aus49, like I did http://mytabletennis.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=77840&PID=962258&title=10-free-nexy-rubicon-blades-for-testers#962258" rel="nofollow - here ). This will make the process transparent and tamper-proof. Example: 5 testers (C, D, A, B, E) apply for Blade1 4 testers (J, F, I, H) apply for Blade2 The lists are: Blade1: C, D, A, B, E Blade2: J, F, I, H The first testers getting the blade will be those whose rank in the list is the remainder of the division of the corresponding lottery number by the numer of testers in the list ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo_operation" rel="nofollow - modulo operation ) plus 1. Imagine the lottery draws the numbers 45, 19, 21, 5, 14, 30 The numbers will be listed in ascending order: 5, 14, 19, 21, 30, 45 In the above example, only two blades are offered for testing, thus only the first two numbers count, that is 5 and 14. 5 testers applied for Blade1 and the lottery number is 5: ((5 mod 5) + 1) = 0 + 1 = 1. Thus blade 1 will be sent to the 1st tester in the list, that is C. The order of testing will be: C, D, A, B, E. 4 testers applied for Blade2 and the lottery number is 14: ((14 mod 4) + 1) = 2 + 1 = 3. Thus blade 2 will be send to the 3rd tester in the list, that is I. The order of testing will be I, H, J, F. Hope that's clear. Now I just need to set which lottery and the draw date. Stay tuned. Update: The first five numbers of the German Lotto "6aus49" of the draw on Wednesday October 18, 2017, will be used: the 1st maps to Calix, the 2nd to Calix II (makes sense, doesn't it?), the 3rd to Chedech, the 4th to Peterpan, and the 5th to Rubicon. The results of the draw will be visible https://www.lotto.de/de/ergebnisse/lotto-6aus49/archiv.html" rel="nofollow - here (in German) and http://www.lotto.net/german-lotto/results" rel="nofollow - here (in English). In case of conflict, the German results are official. In case that for any reason there is no draw on October 18, the numbers of the subsequent draw will be used. Update 2: changed the procedure after fatt (thanks!) pointed out that the numbers are listed in acending order on the websites. So we'll use the ascending order instead of the order of drawing. ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG. Join the forum_posts.asp?TID=47778" rel="nofollow - Nexy Clan !

I cannot believe only three players are interested. For those who have never heard about these blades, I invite you to read the many deailed reviews.

I remember a friend gave me the Calix 2 not knowing it was a test blade leading to some miscommunications in the forums, from what I remember the blade was very linear but my favorite thing about the blade from memory was its ability to really absorb shots based on how tight or loose you grip the blade on blocks (you can do this skill with any other blade, but with the calix 2 it made it very easy to do instilling confidence in such particular shots) it was very good for flat shots but mainly a looping blade ------------- I am a total Newb.

If testers for Chedech decide to not keep the blade, instead of sending it back to arg0 I can buy it. I will pay the price fixed by arg0 and, of course, also the shipping costs, so at least you will save a few bucks of returning blade to arg0. fatt and MCollins, please don't forget this post when you test the blade haha

No fixed template for the reviews: list rubbers and ball used, focus on perceived blade characteristics such as speed, stiffness, etc., and how the racket performs in the various types of shots. Preferably, good revies compare the tested blade to some known reference blade. There are many excellent reviews linked in the first post of the "Nexy Clan" (link in my signature). ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG.

Done. Not much love for the Rubicon, as it seems. That's a shame, it should appeal to all those wanting a 7-ply linear blade with OFF- speed and much control. At some point I considered switcing from Violin to Rubicon, but eventually the blade was too linear for me. I prefer very flexible blades. ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG.

The order is not the order the numbers were drawn, it's the numbers in ascending order, as they appear on the site. They are matched to the blades in alphabetical order. At present, the lists are fairly short: Calix (ST): A, B (2 testers) Calix II (ST): C, D (2 testers) Chedech (FL): E, F, G (3 testers) Peterpan (FL): H, I (2 testers) Rubicon (FL): (0 testers) In your example, the numbers in ascending order are: 1 7 12 23 38 45 1 would be used for Calix 7 would be used for Calix II 12 would be used for Chedech 23 would be used for Peterpan 38 would be used for Rubicon, if there were any testers So: ( 1 mod 2)+1=2. Calix would be tested first by tester B, then A ( 7 mod 2)+1=2. Calix II would be tested first by tester D, then C (12 mod 3)+1=1. Chedech would be tested first by tester E, then F, then G (23 mod 2)+1=2. Peterpan would be tested first by tester I, then H Note that I took the actual names out, because this is just a simulation. The actual drawing will be tomorrow. Edit: procedure updated because the numbers are listed in acending order on the websites. ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG.

"not post much" sounds like an euphemism... OK MKeats, you're in. This means that MCollins will likely get the opportunity to test more than one blade. For fairness, I'll allow others to enrol in more than one list, too. No tester may but more than one blade, though. I'll add mhnh007 to the Rubicon list, as well. EDIT: Just for clarification and avoidance of doubt. What I meant is that, since MCollins and MKeats play in the same club, they'd get the chance to test two blades, so I wanted to be fair to the others. MKeats' account was created over a year ago, so all seems legit. ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG. Join the forum_posts.asp?TID=47778" rel="nofollow - Nexy Clan !

Well-spotted: I hadn't noticed his profile says Location=London. Maybe it's London, OH. Well, my original posting was at least ambiguous.

For reasons of timing and transparency, I will leave him on the list for the purpose of the lottery drawing, but we'll have to clarify the issue at the latest if and when it will be his turn to test the blade.

Update: I still miss one address (will write PM). At this point I won't manage to sent the blades tomorrow morning. I'm sending them early next week and notify each tester via PM. ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG. Join the forum_posts.asp?TID=47778" rel="nofollow - Nexy Clan !

Just curious arg0, how much time is allowed for each tester to try the blades? ------------- Xiom Omega IV Euro | Freitas ALC | Xiom Omega IV Euro https://tinyurl.com/yaoh8suu" rel="nofollow - Feedbacks |

No hard limit, especially since the lists are rather short. Keep it reasonable, though. ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG. Join the forum_posts.asp?TID=47778" rel="nofollow - Nexy Clan ! Also member of Violin & 1-Ply clans. |

Every time I open this thread it opens a download page of an object named "JNcua_JURlU.swf". Is it only happening to me? It doesn't happen with other threads. I'm using google Chrome. Sorry for this off topic...

It is coming from flash embed in http://mytabletennis.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=80460&PID=1000736&title=free-nexy-blades-testing-get-one-at-70-discount#1000736" rel="nofollow - BH-Man's post . A recent update to Chrome has changed how it handles https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/154182/why-is-google-chrome-blocking-raw-swf-playback" rel="nofollow - flash not embedded with an object tag , which has seen an active effort to deprecate(read eradicate) it from the internet world as it is potential security risk. By default, Chrome will not open any standalone flash object(.swf) but instead prompt the user to download with a warning. TL;DR The WebWiz forum software is outdated. ------------- Viscaria FL - 91g + Neo H3 2.15 Blk - 44.5g(55.3g uncut bare) + Hexer HD 2.1 Red - 49.3g(68.5g 〃 〃) = 184.8g |

acpoulos has not logged in for three weeks and did not reply to my PM. If he does not reply soon, I'll ship the Calix to the following tester, JoeB. ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG. Join the forum_posts.asp?TID=47778" rel="nofollow - Nexy Clan ! Also member of Violin & 1-Ply clans. |

I'm heading to the post office now. The Calix is going to JoeB. If acpoulos is still interested when he's back, he'll get the chance to test it: if JoeB intends to buy it after testing and acpoulos wants to test it, JoeB will have to ship it to acpoulos first, and acpoulos will then send the blade back to him after testing. I hope that's fine with everybody. ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG. Join the forum_posts.asp?TID=47778" rel="nofollow - Nexy Clan ! Also member of Violin & 1-Ply clans. |

Not sure, since I did not expressly use air mail, I think about 2 weeks or more, depending on the destination and customs. ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG. Join the forum_posts.asp?TID=47778" rel="nofollow - Nexy Clan ! Also member of Violin & 1-Ply clans. |

Glad it wasn't stopped by customs and has arrived quickly. Not sure about the message, though.  What message? There wasn't supposed to be any, unless you refer to "the joy of table tennis" printed on the box. ------------- Nexy Arche & Nittaku Violin LG.

The message I referred to was in the box under the blade. I had never bought a Nexy blade so I was very pleased to see a beautifully written message about the love of God as given to all of us in the person of His Son, Jesus Christ. I don't know if this is on all Nexy blade boxes. It was well done. Joe ------------- Joe B BBC Hinoki/carbon BBC Hinoki |

Got the Calix II yesterday. Really beautiful blade. Will try it out sometime this week. Will probably start with Karis M first. ------------- https://youtu.be/jhO4K_yFhh8?t=115" rel="nofollow - I like putting heavy topspin on the ball... Cybershape Carbon FH/BH: H3P 41D.

I got notice from PO, not sure if it's the test blade or the new rubbers I order. I hope to get both blade and rubbers to try out a little this week, before my vacation. |

Got Peterpan in the mail. FIRST IMPRESSIONS: The blade looks amazing, great workmanship. Weight 82 g, very close to my optimal weight of 79-80 g. Bounce test on the naked blade shows ... I would say OFF- speed. Handle is FL, very comfortable. Next step - put some of my standard rubbers like old Tenergy 80-FX or Tibhar Aurus and see what happens. That will have to wait until weekend or beginning of the next week.
