Well Adham hope your christmas time was nice and you and your family are o.K..
I want to give a short message to show what happens in the real table tennis world since banned the frictionless long pimples and gluing.
Yesterday I played a tournament in my country and what I see there makes me really angry.
I played against a men and after my first topspin I looked like a hot dog.
All spin comes back from his pimples.
I went to see the rubber and it was a grass ultra.
I took the ball and pressed over the rubber.
NO friction.It was like super block last year.......
I ask how this could be right and the player only says its normal.
I am sure its not normal so I informed the referee.
He looked to his materiallist 29b and says yes its legal everything O.K.

So (sorry ) what a bullshit.....
I played against and I win because I know how to play but I dont understand.
You forbid the frictionless long pimples but you have no chance to controll....

In the half final I played against a guy I know him a long time.
He has no pimples.
We play first 2 minutes and I am wondering about his extrem spin and speed.
Bevore we start the referee looked to our rackets and yes they are o.K. all rubbers are listed on the ITTf materiallist 29b.
Then the rackets are tested by ENEZ.All nice so we start.
I lose! the spin and the speed was to extrem .
I thinkt it was more than bevore the ban of gluing.
After the final we drink a beer together(yes he win) and he told me what he did .
its a tuner you can buy legal in the Internet......
What (sorry) a bullshit you forbid gluing but you have no chance to controll...

Now Adham I can tell you what I will do now:
I will buy some long pimples which are tuned frictionless but listed and will play them .
Then I will buy a boster and will play with,too.

only the best for 2009!! my motto for 2009:tuned but listed
