Sithu,

Nice racket. Except for one thing...

If I were you, I'd do it just the opposite way: black Bryce and red Geospin.

The reason is that black Bryce is much faster than red Bryce, while red Geospin is much faster than black Geospin.

Why, you ask? Well, Bryce rubber naturally is black. When it first comes out of the factory, it is black. The red version is made by adding 25% red licorice to it. That gives it a nice color, but, unfortunately, also takes away 25% of the speed. With Geospin, it is just the other way arouond: being produced under the auspices of the Chinese communist party, it is naturally red. They add black licorice to produce a black sheet. Again, you give up speed and spin by buying the sheet with the licorice -- licorice just is not very bouncy...

With this change, your game should become much more loopy!

Good luck!
Jeff Smith
