It's not in the rules, it's in the ITTF technical leaflet in the section on racket coverings, Section A. Qualitative Criteria, subsection 2, says anything like lacquer on the wood cannot hide the wood by sight or touch.
http://www.ittf.com/stories/pictures/T4_Racket_Coverings_forBoD42014_final.pdf A very thin layer of lacquer is permitted on the blade, only for the purpose of anchoring wood fibres thereby facilitating replacement of the racket covering. Anything more than this will be deemed to constitute a layer of plastic, and will not be permitted. This layer may be no more than 0.1 mm thick, and should not hide the wood from sight or touch. It is considered to be part of the blade, rather than part of the thickness of the racket covering. A thin layer of paint or plastic laminateis permitted on an uncovered non-striking side of the blade, for the purpose of having a proper red or black side. |

Someone knows the exact normative in the ITTF rules that KC doesn't satisfies to be an ilegal blade?.
Thanks in advance.

I thought that any blade would be legal as long as the umpire could see verify the composition of the blade. I would not be so worried that the blade would be disqualified as long as you've sanded off enough of the edge of the blade to see the thickness of wood and composite materials. Now for those at the very top of the food chain at some tounaments the umpires might get more picky, but I just can't see it getting as bad as most folk are expecting. But if someone is using a frictionless LP rubber this is banned, I can definitely imagine someone getting upset and turning them in to the umpire.

YES! It's good publicity, especially for Ma and Danny, who both have their best days behind them. LOL :-).
Sign anyway you like as long as it's not too big. We need to leave room for Ma to sign. |

Outta curiousity, do u guys think that those professional t/t players, e.g. like Ma Lin or Timo Boll or u name them, if u've have the chance to present ur blades to them in their faces, would they be willing sign/initial those blades?

Oh Yeahr, It's heavily sealed . . . glassy. It will be fast and light! in this case the triple sealing was a must to protect the two corners that I sanded down to the carbon. Ma Lin wrote me an email the other day. I should have mentioned the blade . . . next time!! Get Seemiller in on it.

I am on pins and needles!!!!! Were going to be part of a WORLD WIDE Experience!!!!! Can't wait to try it! Did you seal the blade with your max seal job so people can see what we do to our equipment??? LOL. Might start a new trend all over the world! I will try to get hold of Seemiller. I think it deserves his sig before the end of the journey. Maybe he can sign on the way back from the outer reaches.
One great idea Tommy. When we go to China, you can show the Chinese "The most famous blade in the WORLD!!!" and get Ma Lin to sign!!! |

I think this will work. Whoever has it, choose who's next and pass it on. At some point we need to go overseas. That's where the real fun begins. The journey begins Monday.

If no San Francisco members come forward by tomorrow I will mail to Hookshot, then who's next? Is it The NAM? Either way, I hope everyone gets it to try. If it's good or bad doesn't matter as much as the fun we'll have. :-).

Anyone is San Francisco? I'm going up there this weekend and can hand it off. If not, I'll start with HOOKSHOT and he can pass it on from there. I'll try to have it ready for hand delivery by Friday or mailing Monday. I await . . .
This will be fun. I'll sign it first. |

Hi Tommy,
You have my address. I'll put that valuable signature "HOOKSHOT" on it for starters. You should get hold of Danny Seemiller also. He He |
