729 RITC was the first developer of tacky materials, in response to the needs with China world-class players in the year 1972. We have now got the China secret formula by courtesy of a china engineer attended Russian tyre plant for technical consulting. 0:07
The ball is sticking to the rubber because it is flat not because it is sticky its another effect of things that are really flat like how two pieces of glass stick together
Your method is great! You inspired me to extend the rubber press Bp24 with a turntable cutting functionality. Looks like this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Xk0su45sLb8.html
I use hurricane 3 rubber and like how tacky it is, I saw this video and bought the same rubber. It wasn’t nearly as tacky and I was disappointed. It’s not bad, but it definitely wasn’t like this video, I still prefer hurricane 3.
Ah - that's a pity! I may have gotten a particularly tacky one in the batch. The Sanwei rubber has a lower throw so if you still prefer the H3, keep using it - it's a good choice for many players
At some point you have to wonder whether they're still making rubber or a slow-creep form of contact cement. You can make a rubber surface essentially infinitely tacky if you don't care about durability or elasticity (retaining energy on bounce vs. dampening), but gotta wonder what the tradeoff is like a few months or a year after playing on it.
I am more amazed that Chinese and Africans and some white people are in the same place at the same time and Chinese speaks English. What is happening here?
I'm Malaysian Chinese and English is pretty much the only language I'm proficient in. 🤣 I can somewhat speak Cantonese but not very well. What you're seeing around me are people from the WSC Table Tennis Community. I chair the community of around 70+ people from all over the world - Brazil, Portugal, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Spain, UK, Ghana, Nigeria, Romania, Lithuania, and several other countries. We had a Vietnamese player for a while too but he's moved to the United States now.
@@TheBatGuy Sounds like some post-apocalyptic movie where everybody is living together in a small community. I live in area deprived of places to play table tennis and it is my passion, nobody I know wants playing either. I hope your tournaments were beautiful. I imagine this being tournaments, could very well not be.
@@aleksitjvladica. :D Thanks! It took quite a bit of work since it started as a handful of regulars in 2018 but we're now quite a mature community. I also manage the large whatsapp group comprising these players who are all from a wide range of backgrounds and personality types. Everything starts from somewhere - I've had a passion for growing a community here since 2013. It took 5 years before anything worthwhile got going. We do have good times during our tournaments (which are held elsewhere due to the shopping mall being a poor tournament location) - largely though, we just gather to play regularly and be around friends or like-minded enthusiasts
@@johnathansia can you suggest what blade should i use? Because i was thinking about using dhs neo hurricane 3 in my forehand and i will use Europe style in my backhand
@@TheBatGuy The clean pores of new rubber make it the same as an empty glass in water. so it sticks to the ball like glass to water. not because of the glue concept like in the video
@@TheBatGuy So don't play in dusty places, if you don't want the rubber pores to fill with dust and get dirty. pores filled with dust are the same as a glass full of water, no longer sticky.
I assembled it for a customer but I got to try it out for a few minutes yesterday to do some blocking. First impressions are that the that bat is very stable and stiff. Didn't feel vibrations when I was blocking hard shots and the stiffness helped to keep the blocks consistent. I'd probably be able it out for longer over the next few weeks since the customer is also a friend
@@TheBatGuy I remembered that a Japanese table tennis RU-vidr called "Takukichi Channel(卓キチちゃんねる)" had posted a similar video, so I commented on its name as appropriate. I'm sorry too.
😅 my guess is factory variances. The Sanwei Target National series is really tacky but this Sanwei Target Pro Blue shocked me with the level of tack it had
This is ridiculous. The logical conclusion of this process is that I think one day in the future people will be able to just get the ball on their racquet, and then walk over to the other side and drop it on the table. And yet people complain about the so-called anti-spin rubbers: anti spin does not impart any spin whatsoever, it is non-sticky and minimally grippy.
