[@Arpitlpshivhare]

Is it a blade review or an opportunity to play with Fan? Man, I'm jealous! :D

[@PharmerThai]

"We then played a set to see how the blade perform in a match environment." LOL, you just want to play Fan Zhendong!

[@balestas4309]

Replace "the blade" by "Fan"

[@avinashsorab5026]

Even in practice, fan zhendong looks so swift and smooth,.,, those footworks, full arm strokes... totally engrained in his muscle memory

[@scaphk9546]

Man I'm so jealous of you, playing a rally with one of the greatest table tennis players

[@agz4370]

Fan was trolling this kid.

[@uchihasasuke7436]

3:20 imagine FZD nodding at your return!!!

[@christianhaugaard2557]

At 3.20 it looks as if Dan is getting world class advice on how to flick.

[@doktorkumpel9691]

This review convinced me to buy this blade. If Fan Zhendong can do awesome shots with it, I can do it too.

[@trevorkoch8911]

Fan Zhendong could flip my hardest underspin serve with his cell phone.

[@thecatmeows1625]

Donald J. Trump Make the blades great again!

[@FrankGixx99Motovlog]

Actually it's not really about the wood. Fan Zhendong is already a monster. Any wood will do for him

You are right, Frank.....

[@LeDrummerDu88]

Woow ! Playing with Fan Zhendong must be a very enriching experience. What an honor

[@WorthlessGeek]

I still know nothing about the blade other then that its got some new carbon gimmick and five layers of wood, that Dan's sample is 93 grams and that Dan and FZD are both high level players. But since they're high level, they can make any equipment look good. How thick is the blade? How hard does it feel? What are the dimensions of the head and handle? How stiff is it? How springy does it feel? How is the blade balanced? Is the sweetspot thing actually true? What kind of rubbers will suit it, and what kind of players will enjoy it?

[@mrmr1964]

What an honor to hit with FZD. Looks like he hardly got out of 2nd gear ! The blade sounds amazing, but 93gr against my Andro Super Core Carbon Light @ 68gr, makes it look like a boat anchor. Pity they can't get the same result with a below 75gr blade - and if they did I'd buy it.

[@Rusiputki]

mrmr1964 You will never have a true offensive blade when it comes to 75g. Unless somebody designs a specific rubber which then will be heavy, I don't see it happening. Table tennis equipment is all about compromise, you can't have the best spin and the top speed.

[@SteveSoper1979]

TTD conclusion, FZD is really good. :p still not sure how he pulls off that over the table backhand flip with that closed blade vs backspin. Someday I hope to learn that shot. Keep up the good work.

[@TableTennisDaily]

I agree Steve, his backhand flick is sensational. It was really confusing me when I was playing with him how he managed to flick the serve with such ease!

[@SteveSoper1979]

TableTennisDaily Sure FZD can do it about as good as anybody but I've seen you and Tom do it also. Maybe if you're ever up to it, put up a separate video on what you look for when you do it. Sometimes I'll see players like FZD or ZJK still push serves. So it makes me question, do they push pure backspin and flip everything else? Or can they flip pure backspin also. If so, how do they not put that ball in the net. Anyways, a nice tutorial video on what you look for would be nice. Just a thought. thanks.

[@lgeiger]

His wrist action is so fast, that he can close the blade against low backspin balls. And I think you're right; for me it's way harder to flip pure backspin than shots with a slight amount of sidespin. The reason for his wrist action is of course his great muscle speed, but also his technique. As you can see, the blade's tip is pointing down at the table in a right angle before he executes the flip shot. Just before impact he turns his wrist more than 90° which creates a longer way for the racket to accelerate. Most people I have seen only use 45° when they are flipping even at semi professional level.

[@Rusiputki]

Notice how top players don't fuck around with blocking and just return top spin with top spin. TTD Conclusion, Fan Zhendong was unable to give Blocking rating therefore dropping the overall to 5/10 for this blade huehuehue

[@raikiro797]

@@SteveSoper1979 It's less about whether or not they're able to flick the serve but rather which shot will catch their opponent off-guard the best. If you flick for 100% of your receives, they'll start to anticipate it and position themselves to attack the flick. The short push is to stop them from being able to guess your receive while also stopping them from attacking hard. Being able to do this well is what separates the pros from the amateurs.

[@evheniibondarenko6147]

When you play with a future legend of this sport but don't know that

[@giopamintuan3936]

How can you compare the Super ZLC blade of Butterfly and Carbonado Blade of Stiga? And which is better for your opinion...

[@ringootdavid]

Does this blade has the same grip as the Stiga Infinity VPS V Diamond Touch? I have the impression that the carbonado 145 is almost similar, but with a little bit more speed.

[@greenLinkLP]

Is this carbon more like alc or zlc?also do you think that from the sweet spot is is more like super(bigger sweet spot like super (zlc compared to zlc) and what blade is it like?do you think it is better than viscaria tbs timo boll alc ?

[@itouchfiendsdotcom]

Awesome man.Congrats

[@darshanved]

Good video.sir what rubber s to use with this blade.pls suggest

[@ComoncentsTV]

Dude! How you got your hands on that... WOW! Please post the next one soon!!!!!!! What is your fav? What do you think of it for pen hold players? Awesome! Amazing video!!!

[@malcomsue]

Looks quite slow and difficult to control during the match play section, is this a characteristic of the blade or the rubbers used?

[@tungtrinh_uther]

What ruber F.z.D use Stiga carbonado 145 blade FH and BH ?

[@advancedfirefly]

What camera are you using to record?

[@whitewiskerz2577]

Dan what is your everyday set up? What blade and rubber?

[@TimoBoll22]

amazing video mate

[@TableTennisDaily]

Thank you!

[@user-ro7fc6xt3d]

Hi. How would you describe the new Stiga Inspira Hybrid Carbon blade in comparison to the Stiga carbonado 145? Similar or very different to each other?

[@LanceChhuanaRalte]

If anybody knows please do reply - Is it faster or slower than Viscaria? Does it have more control?

[@CheeseFest-]

Some please answer. What table tennis blade is good with Rasanter v42 rubber looking for under $45

[@hamzahamza1878]

WHICH ONE IS BETTER ? DHS 4006 4-Star Table Tennis Racket (Penhold) OR Double Fish 5-Star Ping Pong Paddle OR JOOLA 53133 Attack Recreational Table Tennis Racket

[@conrad7771]

Steve,some players have a really flexible wrist and body and can do all sorts of shots with ease.Michael Maze quickly comes to mind. The other 90% of us have to work really hard to achieve a half decent banana flick. One of my students can spin them at will and can hit an amazing backhand loop at great speed and spin from almost anywhere on the table.His wrist looks like soft rubber,when i try it, it feels like my shoulder wants to snap out of it's socket. Am so jelous of those wristy guys they make it look so easy.

[@guywhodoesstuff1798]

I see this is an old post, but I`d like to point out that no one is "naturally wristy". They worked on their technique - you can`t just start playing and do a good backhand flip. It doesn`t matter how fast and fit I am, I am not as good at soccer as Cristiano Ronaldo is.

[@timoernst]

04:33 That squeaking sound - was that an old door or Dan‘s knee? 😂

[@andyzhaott]

Fan Zhendong’s forehand is so fluid...

[@reezrun899]

What rubber fzd use for bh?

[@MaxPower2307]

Fan Zhendong playining with common equipment looks extremly different compared to other videos from him playing with viscaria and his usual rubbers :D

[@SteveSoper1979]

Eh maybe. To me FZD looked like he was putting in minimal effort. I don't think its the equipment.

[@smcetanoop]

Hey TTD: what equipment (blade and rubbers) does Fan zhendhong use ?

[@GoryGuitarist01]

He now uses the carbanado 145 and some sort of Chinese rubber (hurricane etc) and then probably tenergy 05 on the bh

[@bewese5]

What is the price for the blades?

[@andyzhaott]

3:45 FZD got some hops

[@Pianitara]

may I know, which rubber complements nicely to the blade?

can you compare to 45?

That Fan's reverse pendulum serve in slow motion must be made an 8 hour video

[@armindiaz7428]

Fan use stiga infinity vps or other blade and change the handle?

[@misterawesome1234]

he might

[@martinzhang5533]

Its like an open secret that his paddle is a Viscaria with VPS handle. But due to his contract with stiga, when onve he was interviewed he talked about how much he likes the VPS, it was funny.

[@jeremytjia4287]

U guys are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can u plz make a blade review on stiga intensity nct ????

[@avinashsorab5026]

Fan zhendong can play with any crappy paddle. It was just to lure him to play a match with Dan :P...anyways nice review :)

[@17teacmrocks]

0:13 omg. watching fzd practice, i usually do bh like fh but fzd seems to loop fh near the top while bh is more otb. btw, dan lucky free lessons from the world's best

How did you manage to communicate with Fan Zhendong? Can he speak English?

[@pallaviagarwal2011]

I think so or dan can speak chinise

[@greenLinkLP]

I think they should answer the comments there are channels with hundred thousands of subs which still reply to almost every comment

We are trying our best however we try to encourage users to ask questions to our website where it is easier to reply and users can already see questions they may have asked, answered.

It's best not to bother with tubing comments. There is a forum I believe they hang around on.

[@beancube2010]

We are in a completely new century of technology. Durable carbon fiber tennis table, carbon fiber ping pong balls and rackets should be developed for this worldwide popular sport. What about microfiber fleece net and some red/black variable microfiber sponges, both sides adhesive for thin, transparent, re-spray-able silicon for gripping layered on light weight, elastic rubber top sheet rackets?

[@owntor1]

What does Fan Zhendong think of this blade?

[@OriGiiNaLShAnKs]

Nice Video!

[@shogrran]

Sigh... looking back on this i think stiga shouldn't have pushed to get fan zhen dong as their sponsored player. There's tons of sites saying he's using a viscaria they "customed" so that it would have a stiga handle. And I think now since he's no longer stiga sponsored he's now just using an actual viscaria?

[@wooqiaoqi]

All tt vids should be shot in 60fps from now on...then the ITTF has no excuse to keep changing the rules :)

[@TableTennisDaily]

Some of this was with a Go Pro, works well :)

[@kstan242]

i am jealous

[@erik....]

What the heck is this review.. No mention of price as far as I can tell, and no comparisons to other well known blades.

[@paullord3549]

Who cares, we get to see FZD close up and personal. Really interesting to get the chance to see this close up angle of FZD`s reverse pendulem which I consider to be the best serve of any of the pro`s.

[@Hannes789]

This seems like a huge biased commercial. You had stiga shirts on, you played stiga rubbers (instead of trying tenergy for example), you played at THEIR headquarters and you played against fzd. Not a single negative aspect was mentioned. I mean c'mon there's always at least that one tiny aspect that you dislike about something

[@erwillnatalio8187]

MidnightSTALKER979 he doesn't realize it because he's playing fan zhendong

[@HELLOXD7]

Does Fan speak english?

[@lolidk9842]

HELLOXD7 yes but not fluently

Dude you played against world no.1

[@reecetowe6520]

If only it was longer

[@Ilestun]

93gr, were is the value of "light weight textrem carbon" ?????? They promote their carbon basically saying that it is light weight, but their blade are 90+gr, so basically their baldes are hheavy..... What a disapointment. "enjoy lighter performance", what a bad joke.

[@Slicksnips]

too bad fzd uses a viscaria with custom handle lol.

i dont understand what he is doing at 04 ' 14, so strange ;)

[@jeokagem8002]

I know?! - it looks so bizarre! (I thought I was the only one who noticed that because nobody else was commenting on it?). How does he even get that shot off? I replayed it dozens of times and I still can't quite figure out what exactly he's doing. He's probably just screwing around too(?)! The guys at the top are such a talented bunch (that goes for everything in life of course!). It gives us something to strive toward.

[@notanut7839]

William Bouchet he's doing a sidespin flick. Zhang Jike does this too

[@OverseerKevin]

He actually brought the tip of the blade under the back-side of the ball to lift the backspin. CRAZY!!!!

[@tomsin269]
