Dan! First of all, it's very satisfying watching you play counters with Sharath. Secondly, I just saw you in a Mr. Beast Reacts video! CONGRATS!!!! That's HUGE!!! Third, I tried an experimental andro Rasanter C rubber in Germany recently and thought it was quite a cool experience! 8>D
Hey Adam! Thanks man! Trying to keep up with Kamal's counters was not easy haha, hes so relaxed and effortless it's unreal! Yeah crazy he featured TTD, super cool! Massive congrats on the 1 mil! Absolutely smashed it 🔥🔥🔥 Yeah very interesting rubber. How did you find it? Let's catch up soon and hit some snakes 💪🐍
I feel we have gone full circle and Europe is finally catching up, Chinese rubbers have used this formula for years, hard sponge with tacky top sheet, I might ditch my H3 and give this a try, love all your vids ❤
Whaaaaaat???! He still pivot to go forehand when his so called "improved backhand" could be used. He cant improve. Hes been playing the same for quite a long time now. Stop being blindly friendly.
@@heybrjaka nope. I watch him carefully since longtime. I can tell that against Timo Boll he was already playing like this and its an old video. Stop being blind.
Holding these super heavy rubbers are a concern for most of amateurs. Not only we havent aquired technique but also the fitness or stamina of these pros. I
Love the video, but just wondering, will there be videos for the second season of ttdsl? If so, when? Outside of the initial announcement, I have heard very little, so I was just wondering.
@@TTDPocketRocket come on! I like you PR but Dan just cant trust his bh for shit except opening on backspin. After that he pivot all the time when the rally is engaged. Mid to long range bh is non existant bro. With all the respect due to both of you.
Kinda interesting, I am very intrigued to get one of those Rasanter since I met with Adam Bobrow who uses them as well as trying them myself in a store (also some people I know use them and like them a lot) still the price .... Also I am still using the Joola Energy X-Soft (I think they are not made anymore since like 6 or 7 years so its harder each year to find "new" ones that were left in some storages) which is only 37° (and still feels much softer then the Gewo 37 as example) so yeah the Question is going to an R37 or something harder .... I am very intrigued by the R45 but hearing the C versions have more spin and a little bit less speed that could be even better for me as an Allround player focusing mostly on good placement as well as spinny serves.
Mate, it's your blade that makes all the difference in the speed, not your rubbers. Your rubbers are more for throw angle and spin. Plus, rubbers control whether you can give the ball a professional wallop at your maximum swing, or if it's unnecessary for you because you're not capable of it. Try the Rasanter C48 on an inner-carbon blade of some sort. Depending on your play style, go for a blade that's either OFF or OFF-. If it's OFF, then try to play counters from close and mid-range with the FH and the BH. You'll need to be unafraid on the BH like Dima for this setup. You'll also need to try to bring the heat as early and as often as possible, which will mean that you have to take risks in order to win with this setup. . If it's OFF-, then loop your opponents to death from everywhere and try to load up those 3rd ball attacks with as much spin as possible. Just make sure those loops are deep as well. Otherwise, they're going to get countered back at you at about half the speed of sound. Move back immediately after your first loop and keep trying to play the ball as deep as possible with as much spin as possible. You'll need to play a Ma Long style backhand for this setup, if you want to be effective. And you'll need to be ready to rally with this setup.
I am using the same blade as Achanta for 2 years, I can say the control is good, strong open play is good for forehand, however I am struggle a bit in backhand, maybe due to the blade is quite heavy (93g). Exchange between forehand and backhand could be some problem as well due to weight. Overall it's a good blade from Andro
Currently using Hexer Powergrip, which is softer (47.5 listed). How would you say they compare in other departments? Which would you favour for a spin-based twin looper close to the table / mid distance?
These "hybrid" rubbers are really flooding the market now I am using Xiom Jekyll and Hyde rubbers (H) on my forehand and (V) on my backhand I'd like to see a review of what you think of these new Xiom products
personally speaking, fastarc g1 is the best rubber i have tried in my whole life. no questions asked. hybrid k3 is also good but sometimes u will feel the last of explosion. i know explosion lies in the mechanics and footwork but we as intermediate players, don't have the time to invest in drills and footwork. so in the long run. G1 ALL DAY!!!
@@sashbar I used to play with Rakza7 but after I started getting more coaching it became a bit too slow for me. I needed a bit more pace, spin and power on my shots. Also Rakza7 is a bit too soft when you get to certain level and then it is easier to bottom out so the ball flies without an arc directly into the net. But it was a really good setup for 2 years I used it :)
@@uFlock Depends on the weight. I have two Acoustics: 79g (FL) and 90 g (LG) and they play very differently. I also have a 89g Violin/G1. Regarding the speed 79g Acoustic/R7 < 89 Violin/G1
Hey, perhaps you should revise the table. If t05 has control 8, which one has control 5 ?! Perhaps Donic acuda blue? I’m just saying, I think that H3 and t05 are a world apart in terms of control.
I have converted from european to Chinese dhs hurricane 3 nue proconcial blue sponge 40* I feel like all rubbers trying to do the tacky or grippy topesheet I tried many and I feel all are close the the rubber I used which is DONIC acuda s1 turbo.
Depends on how you think. I came to conclusions of getting very fast rubber for backhand too and this is why was watching this video. My thinking is same as he said in this video, that is, with backhand it is hard to generate speed so to make up for this i want faster rubber. On forehand we have changes to generate speed by our bigger hand motion so there i use hurricane 3 a slower but spinny rubber.
Played with the Nittaku PK-50 for a long time. Kinda like you say here. You have to commit and do the full strokes! And you get a beutiful and easy to put the ball on the table. But if you don't do the work. You are F*cked!
I dont get why they are so hell bent on speed being that important. Just hit the ball harder ;D ... maybe you should do some core exercises to get more explosive rotation in your mid-section instead of spending so much money on gear. Also, review one of the most popular blades in the world, the Nittaku Acoustic, please.
@@Shrimp0kUgel are you saying that most euro pro players cant hit right? Come on... its just a matter of being used to speed. When you can manage speed it becomes hard to step down on speed. Boll used Primorac carbon blade for a reason. With his signature blade, D09c was too slow and he had to hit much harder. He wasnt comfy. He did hurt his already beaten up shoulder because of that. Which forced him to take Primorac blade to compensate. Hes not a powerhouse. And being too old and injured cant compensate the necessary power with his signature blade. His technique is pretty good. He just doesnt open his arm enough to generate power like Ma Long does per exemple. No booster either so ...
Nittaku acoustic is a great paddle. Faster and a tad heavier than Viscaria. I am back to Viscaria with H3 blue sponge FH and Tynergy 05 BH and loving it. I had the same rubber on Nittaku Acoustic and didn't like it much
@@girish325 I think its a taste that develops over prolonged use of 5-ply wooden flexible blades. Most people say that Acoustic is slower than Viscaria though, maybe you are referring to Acoustic carbon?
@@jiboo6850 I'm sure Dan's match play continues to improve and so does his consistency. In his old videos his backhand was more stiff, now it is a bit better from mid and has a bit more spin however his small euro technique remains more or less the same so the looks the same
Hi Dan, I would like your advice on two or three rubbers models. You have tried many and therefore have excellent knowledge. I'm happy with the 47-48 hardness but I don't like the "catapult effect2 caused by the large porous sponge. Therefore I ask you: can you recommend two or three models of rubbers with medium or fine pores? I have in mind : Rasanter 47, Rasanter 48, Tibhar MXS, Xiom Omega VII pro. What do you think? do they have small pores? Thank you for your possible response. Greetings from Sardinia, Marcello.

Welcome back TTD!
Please put D05 and D80 on your rating table. It would be nice to see how you think they compare to some of the others on there.
I think that if you try the Rakza Z Extra Hard, you will find it more similar to this Rasanter C53. Please consider reviewing it.
Second to that !
Welcome back to RUclips xD
For everyone searching for rubbers with extreme spin and speed you should look into the donic Accadi series

Guys, not a single Nittaku review ! Nittaku Acoustic would be super popular I guess, with either Rakza 7 or Fastarc G-1.
Agree 100%, acoustic + fastarc G-1 both sides is the most balanced setup ever, great feel, speed, control and spin.
