Luka has a younger fellow in Luxmbourg who plays similar: look at this thread: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=29922&p=318058#p318058

Watching him play really makes me want to try a setup like his. I gotta stay strong though haha. His game is very close to what I want to play like, just a bit more FH oriented for me. BH game is spot on. Blocking off the bounce with BH and then attacking with FH.

GlAntis seem like the best option for a "old" frictionless LP type of game, I just hate the feeling of them and can't get any control at all.

(I'm 100% happy atm though and I'm NOT gonna change anything haha)

Don't know, but wouldn't it be a better option to go for this style when you're getting too old to move

Also Ademir Balaban from Luxembourg is playing with frictionless ANTI Spin rubber BEAST on DESTROYER blade with TENACIOUS VIOLENCE on forehand.
He win against Martin Bratanov which was really a sensation:

That's a really good win!

It's funny how bad such a good player can look when he doesn't have a single clue how to handle a player like Balaban.

Hi there! I recently bought a Terror blade and a BEAST in 1.5 mm. I have been using a Butterfly Joo Se Hyuk for some time now and I had some troubles with the low throw of Terror (compared to Joo Se Hyuk). I wonder what the difference is between Terror and the Destroyer-blade? I can see that the Destroyer is a little heavier and slightly xaster and have composite layers. But would you say that ghe throw angle is higher? I use FH a lot for attacks both close to the table and for counter loops away from the table. And I use DHS Hurricane 3 or 8.
Thans for videos! Great game!

Thanx. I get into troubles when looping back top spin, especially when I am a few meters away from the table... but if I keep developing my game and adapt it to slick anti I might not have to loop from distance
