Speed 109 Spin 90 Control 110. Does that sum up Tibhar Aurus? Well, not really. This is a rubber for the ambitioned player striving to play topspin strokes in any situation. The new technology combined with the ultra soft rubber surface provides an outstanding spin and a great playing sensation, allowing a secured and aggressive game. The integrated SPI (Speedglue-Effect-Inside) technology confers...... an extreme catapult reaction to the ball. Although you will use very little strength, your balls will be loaded with a lot of spin and speed. The exclusive rubber surface confers stability and a long-life-expectancy. Notice the energy of this rubber after only few exchanges.

Chuan Chih Yuan wins Spanish World Tour (Pro Tour) 2012

Chuan Chih Yuan took full advantage of the absence of leading names and won the title at Spain beating Lee Jung Woo in the finals. Earlier, Chuan beat favourite Jun Mizutani in a tight decider, where Mizutani showed his sportsman spirit by acknowledging an edge point when the umpire did not see it.

Chuan has been among the top players for a very long time and was once ranked No. 3 in the World.

Soumyajit Ghosh, Ankita Das qualify for Olympic Games, London 2012

Soumyajit Ghosh and Ankita Das turned the tables on their more experienced Indian team mates and qualified for the London Olympics 2012. There were some unexpected results as Soumyajit beat Amalraj, Amalraj beat Sharath Kamal, and Ankita Das beat K Shamini. All hope is not lost for Sharath as he still has a chance to qualify from the Doha table tennis qualifying tournament now that most of the top Asian players have already qualified.

Timo Boll Spirit Review

Timo Boll Spirit is a great all round blade that is suitable for all range of players from medium level club players to professionals. It maintains a good balance of the right amount of feel to power ratio. There is not much difference between the classic Timo Boll ALC (that Timo Boll himself uses) and the Timo Boll Spirit.
Construction is 5 Wood + 2 layers of Arylate carbon.

The Timo Boll Spirit blade is available at a great price compared to the ALC and other top end Butterfly blades. We recommend Donic Coppa X1 on the backhand and Tibhar Genius + Optimum with this blade for amazing performance and looping joys.

Official description:
"A great Carbon blade for the European style of looping play. Good balance of speed and control. Used by young German sensation, Timo Boll."
