I wonder, going by my first couple of points and maybe a couple of the other better points which I lost, where I would rank in the OOAK ranking list? :P


Probably between Hewey and Dewey, but way above adham. :D

I'd put you above Lorre easily. :P :lol:

Honestly, I'd say somewhere around 1900-2000 USATT. But really hard to say as video means nothing and Ruwen wasn't exactly playing normal.

At my best I'd have around 1200 table tennis england ranking points so I don't know what that would equate to in USATT.

Looking at this comparison table - http://ttcdriveoostende.be/tornooi%202017/vergelijkingstabel%202017.pdf - you're my rating then. Seeing you play I suspect that's the case. It's +-2100 USATT.

Thank you that's good to know. I've always wondered what my USATT rating could be. I need to try and meet with an OOAK member for a game!

I didn't write that I need to try and meet with an OOAK member for a game. Ridderz did.

From what I could gather, Butterfly do make special Tenergy for Boll, pre boosted. So he himself doesn't actually do it, but Butterfly do it for him.


BTF had never boosted Tenergy nor any other rubbers, as they consider the boosting to be "unfair practice" and some indecency.

Timo Ball stated not once he always receive unboosted products from Butterfly, the same product you can now get from any shop.
Yes, Dima boosting heavily on his Hurricane rubbers. Some disgrace practice, anyway...

What is the "tension effect" in normal store-bought Tenergy if not the result of factory boosting a la DHS's "Neo" sponge, Gambler Outlaw, etc? I don't see how you're going to put tension between the topsheet and the sponge without making one of them expand or contract relative to the other after sticking them together.

FL 3 is the tackiest/grippiest LP.
It's mean it somewhat works like a hybrid LP/invert. Better at pushing and stuff inverted is good at. And weaker at things LP is good at.
Example - last point - very short and heavyyyy....ball never had chance to go over the net.

Filus's chop is not as heavy as other world class choppers but very consistency. Enough that he can do other stuff like attacking, lifting or twiddle and loop.

Just my opinion.....from non world class chopper.

I suppose Igor knows everything "BTF" does.. :lol: Of course Tenergy is "boosted" - every single sheet of it, whether Boll gets different ones or not. Of course, it's not "fair" that end-users boost, since it means "BTF" sells fewer sheets. It breaks their monopoly.
