OOAK Table Tennis Forum

Thank you to Tabletennis11.com for providing me with the equipment for this review and to their CEO Sergei Petrov for responding and providing feedback.

Please feel free to ask me any questions. Thank you!

Thank you for posting.

I like the element of humour you build in to your presentation style.

In your presentation you refer back a few times to "speed glue effect". Speed glue hasn't been used in competitions organised by national associations or under national association rules for a number of years now so some players newer to table tennis might not identify with the reference "speed glue effect". If you couldn't refer to "speed glue effect", how would you describe - comparativley - how Rakza PO compares to something like 802-40 (in the same thickness sponge).

Music is often copyrighted. How did you add music to your video without being in breach of copyright? I'm particularly interested in how you did this as you bring it in and out at various points. I wasn't aware you could do that when you use YouTube's royalty free music options. I think you do it well, although it can sometimes drown out the sound of ball hitting the rubber which I typically like to hear.


Cheers

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed my video. As I stated, Rakza PO is a good deal faster than 802-40. It's a bit hard to find another term for speed glue effect/feeling. I suppose "tuned" would be the next best option as factory tuning is still used today. However, I feel that even though speed glue hasn't been legal for quite some time, anyone that understands the proper terminology that I used will probably also be familiar with what speed glue is and what I mean by it.

I didn't use any of youtube's provided royalty free music. I don't believe either of the 2 songs I used have a registered copyright. Youtube is exceptionally good at detecting if it is. Trust me, I've had to re-edit things with different music because of copyrights I didn't expect. The music playing in the background while I speak is a fanmade instrumental recreation of the song Cab Fare by Souls of Mischief. I'm not a fan of rap plus the original Souls of Mischief song is probably copyrighted. That being said, I did enjoy the backing tracking as I enjoy instrumental hip hop so it was great to see a fan made recreation that doesn't have a copyright. Here's a link to it:

The song I used during the point compilation is the song Odyssey from the artist HOME. I am not aware of any copyrights on his music. His music is uploaded on multiple channels on youtube and youtube never detected any copyright infringement in my video. Here's a link to it:

Also, I'm making no money on this video. I will receive no money from youtube and no money from tabletennis11.com. The only thing I received from them were the 2 sheets of rubber.

Very nice review (and entertaining!) GeneralSpecific!
