  4. Nittaku Violin ST

    I prefered the acoustic, that is why I'm using it :P What I felt with the violin is that is a bit too slow for me - but has a great feeling: a bit more flex than the acoustic.
  5. Double serve like in tennis

    make a table the size of a tennis court and play with air fans instead of bats

    Beautiful blade. I have the acoustic and have tried the violin before.
  7. German Open 2018

    super close game between freitas and yoshida...
  8. Could EU teams cooperate closer?

    Truls style relies on ball positioning and forehand attack, backhand is more punch style. I think that when the chinese he is playing grow in strenght it will be harder to maintain such type of play and not get overwhelmed by spinny FHs and BHs. Europeans just need more training and more money...
  9. Which is the best type of serve?

    Yes maybe not knowing other countries ratings is a problem indeed. One of my practise partners is from Belgium and he played there at level C2 he tells me. Maybe helps a bit but I bet, again, it is diferent from the UK. Anyways on the topic: I played with the primorac wood blade before and it's...

    2nd Division which is something like 3rd division because there is a 2nd honor division. I don't know how it works on other countries because I've seen people giving their ratings by points.
  14. Back Playing Table-Tennis

    If you already used Mark V before and don't think it's too fast I would go for it. If you feel you need more speed / spin and money is not an issue you can always change after a while. I had tried Mark V, Mark V HPS, Sriver, Sriver EL, Sriver FX. I feel like the normal version of Mark V is...
