on January 13, 2024 #5 So people who use a rubber that relies on deception are complaining about "illegal" rubbers that causes more deception??? Sounds to me there should be a different class that groups all the pips players together and let them play each other. Good to know where Gtsnak...

I did not know this.
I was under the impression that long pips and antispin rubbers were originally introduced only for deception
I guess you learn something new

It has been more than a month now
ITTF holds publishing the Propositions and Resolutions till the last minute - Why ?

Lot of players are under the impression that glassy ( frictionless ) pips give more backspin This myth has been perpetrated ever since Manika Batra made Tibhar Grass Dtec OX very famous. Yes Dtec has good spin reversal but it does NOT come from its glassy pips It comes from the material used to mak...

the contact area is still higher, and therefore the amount of backspin is higher, Huh ? So a wider pip will give more back spin ? SERIOUSLY ? Isn't the primary controversy is about pips aspect ratio ? Meaning you want a slimmer pip for the same height for more back spin ? Unless the spin is coming ...

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808918193035.html Why ? The length of this rubber is near perfect 2.6 mm The pip tops are rough & perfect for an away from the table chopper But the huge problem is the pip width (2.5 mm) Which gives an Aspect Ratio of 2.6. divided by 2.5 = 1.04 It is horrible...

This rubber could be a great chopper rubber if the Aspect Ratio was 1.5 , which means the pip width cannot exceed 2.6 mm divided by 1.5 = 1.73 mm
But this Feilong has a pip width of 2.5 mm which is very bad

Nice name though > FeiLong > REALLY ?

Why do you need the pip length longer than 2.05 mm ? If ITTF says 2.05 mm is optimal, are they not correct ?
