You may have a lot of questions about the equipment. It just so happens that we have a lot of answers. Although everyone's understanding of the answer is different. No, put it here, I, the dark horse, he, the shopkeeper Brother Ma (you can search and follow: Himalaya FM Night Chat Ping Pong, WeChat ID: kid075). We have different understandings, and you can have your own judgment about who is right and who is wrong.
It is for the inscription.
A more objective and sharp description may allow us to reach the essence of things better. This is what "Erma Said" wants to do.
In the era of plastic balls, more and more brands and players recognize the "stickiness" to make up for the lost spin. Even if it's just slightly sticky, it improves the sense of stability when catching the ball. While the arc is more stable, the players are also more able to give full play to their technical and strength advantages. Therefore, among imported outerwear, Hybrid (Sino-European hybrid, with the elasticity of the German sleeve and the adhesive of the Chinese style) will also become the next most important direction.
The forehands of the top players are becoming less and less astringent
In the men's singles world rankings, only Hayashi Yunru (T05 Hard) and Tomokazu Haramoto (D05) are left to use astringent sets on their forehands, while in the women's top 10, only Diaz (D05) and Mimato Ito (G-1) remain. Looking at the world's top players, the number of forehand users is increasing, and in addition to the world's top players, new sticky sleeves developed by various brands are also increasing, and they are being used on the boards of more and more players. The blind pursuit of speed is not everyone's consensus, on the contrary, rotation and arc are still crucial.
Pony: I think everyone knows that sticking to the forehand works well. It is to be able to hold it steady, and then it can add friction, the rushing ball has power, and the quality of the curved ball is high.
Dark Horse: We can see that in different competitions now, it is likely that different brands of table tennis will be used. Like the last Singapore Grand Slam, the Milky Way's seam ball was used. The European Games used Yola's seamless ball. One of the advantages of the sticky sleeve is that the friction is stable enough, and I think that in this way, I can adjust myself better when playing different balls with the sticky sleeve.
Pony: As we talked about a few years ago, the ultimate trend of astringency and stickiness is also "fusion".
Dark Horse: The end product of fusion is those "sticky" coats. It's not really high stickiness in nature, it's slightly sticky. For example, K2 Pro, D09c, Dynasty ZGR/ZGX, DNA Red Dragon, etc.
Now it's not just the forehand sticky set, like Shen Yubin, the forehand NEO Blue Country Crazy, and the backhand is D09c.
Pony: Yes, it's normal to stick on both sides now, and our national team, the backhand has the tradition and ability to make wild flights. But the outsourcing, the backhand is indeed a transition from the astringent. Therefore, it is more reliable to be half sticky and half astringent like D09c and K3.
The style of this backhand is a combination of speed, spin and power. It feels steady, with speed and power, and there are few mistakes. It's a bit more comprehensive than the original astringent backhand. For professionals, it's okay to make up for it in terms of strength.
But for many amateur golfers, there are not many people who use this half-sticky and half-astringent backhand, like Butterfly D09c, and I think there are still some technical obstacles.
Dark Horse: Backhand sticky sleeve, for people with good power, it is very suitable. Like the national version of the cake sponge before, it is relatively transparent than the original blue sponge and orange sponge, and it feels not solid to put the forehand. But when you use your backhand, when you exert your own force, the arc is very stable, so you dare to exert your own force, and the ball quality is also very good.
Ultimately, however, it depends on each individual's individual needs. Like last month's interview with Yoshimura Maharu. He didn't use D09c for his forehand, but he felt that it was still not strong enough, and the opponent was better at defending his ball, so he changed it to D05 again.
Perhaps, for butterflies, the sticky sleeve still has to work hard to make a thicker one than the D09c. Indeed, I also heard some feedback from professional teams that D09c is still a little bit meaty with a forehand.
But there is a doubt that the D09c made by Butterfly for players like Ocharov is harder, which is already harder than the market version. None of them can meet Yoshimura's requirements. It seems that it is still very difficult to improve again.
Pony: Since you can't do anything special for the players, it's probably spin and speed, and it's hard to maintain a balance between the two. If it's fast, the rotation will be average, and if the rotation is good, the speed will be average. It is unlikely that both will grow at the same time.
Dark Horse: If you are crazy, you can spin well, and you can properly solve the problem of "slow speed" by filling oil. But for foreign players, many people are still not used to the glue surface that is too sticky, or feel that its explosive power is not enough.
In other words, Kihara Miyu used 968 in the early stage, and at the beginning it was D09c to play the forehand, and later it was estimated that the forehand support was not enough, so now it is crazy to play NEO Blue Country.
Pony: D09c and W968 don't work together. Because the 968 holds the ball a little longer than the butterfly's built-in board, you really need to release the power yourself and then spin it out.
If you stick D09c, I think it will start to play out when it uses the power of 968 to 60 or 70 percent. So in the end, some of the power is lost.
The style of 968 stickers D09c belongs to the rotation is not enough to turn, fast is not fast enough, and it is relatively boring. When Double Happiness made the board, it must have been tested with Wild Biao, so the style is closest to Wild Biao. 968 stickers jackets, foreign players can sometimes play some wonderful balls, but the requirements for people are still quite high, like Ocha with 968 stickers on both sides of T05 Hard. Most people can't imitate it.
Dark Horse: These micro-adhesive jackets, such as D09c, K2 Pro, and Dynasty ZGR/ZGX, I think most amateur golfers are still very easy to adapt to. In particular, it is attached to an external aromatic carbon plate, or a slightly stiffer internal plate.
Pony: The built-in board after the 40+ comes out is still a little stiffer than before.
Dark Horse: The inside is becoming harder, and the outside is becoming more ball-eating. Just like the second external bottom plate "demon" that we said about Erma, the same is true. (The Demon is on sale until April 15.) ）
The demon is coming!
Most of the forehands of world-class players use sticky sleeves, and even both sides are sticky, and we, who often refer to the glue used by players, will be more and more affected. In the coming period, it is believed that more and more sticky sleeves of the same type will emerge. Homogenization will be even more severe.

Erma said that it is not hearsay, nor is it a fallacy. Although it is street talk, it is as evidence-based and documented as possible. I hope you will continue to support Erma and say that what you care about is what we want to talk about.
