Why would he get called? He wasn't taunting XF or anything. Sure it's kind of annoying but you cant penalise a guy for being too enthusiastic lmao.

I think both arguments are wrong if were trying to generalise an equipment suggestion here. In fact I think ALL generalisations on equipment suggestions are wrong. I've literally said it hundred of times, there isn't a single absolute answer on the question of "what rubber/blade should I use?"...

Is it not? Lets use a different analogy. Is speed a deciding factor in motorsports? DUH. But hey, so is strategy, just look at how many times Rosberg took Hamilton with a better pit strategy. But at the end of the day, you have to be quicker overall to win a race, doesn't matter if you have a...

The crowd in this video is one of the least ive seen in my years going to the finals. Usually the better schools that gets to the finals will field a few buses of supporters that might not even know a single thing about TT, and theyll still be chanting for the players. Also, the SG scene is...

Huh. I always feel refreshed and find myself playing better after taking a hiatus of a couple weeks/months. It'd be so obvious, I can tell from the difference of the feel of the ball when it hits my bat. It'd be so much clearer than it was before the rest. Anyone else with me?

You still dont get it. Let me break it down real simple for you. Schlager is obviously PHYSICALLY slower, but due to his "strategies and experience", as you stated, he wouldn't need to move/adjust his position as much as Ho to pull off a good shot/block because he knows exactly what's going to...

Except Ho Kwan Kit isnt "faster". If you look closely, there are a number of shots where he scrambles/has to make adjustments to get in position after the ball's already past the net. The most obvious one would be the one where Schlager saved the net shot at 2:16. Like I said, he might move and...

I've been in 2 top tier school teams in Singapore and the UK (Maris Stella High in SG, multiple times national champion and Uni of Nottingham, reigning BUCS champions), both of which have national level head coaches (ex-singaporean womens national coach, Chen Wei, and Alan Cooke, present England...

If you really want to boil it down to ONE single factor, its speed. Im not talking about the speed of your shots or you taking your shots, the speed im talking about here is the time taken for you to analyse your next shot and then getting in position to take it. The second part is more...

Dan are you coming up to Notts GP?

Depends on how sensitive you are to the touch of the blade. Its the same as "why are people buying T-05 and not MX-P while they are similar in terms of spin and speed?" Some people cant even tell between ALC and ZLC, let alone big and small scale patterns on Koto outer plies. The difference...

Depends on the level you're playing on. A good push/chop blocker with J-Pen in my level will still be just as hard if not harder to play against than a shake hand player. Obviouslly J-Pen is disappearing on the top of national/intl rankings, but at our level where most of our backhand and...

Anything with glass/arylate fiber in it that says all+ should have the big sweet spot youre looking for..... Off the top of my head, Matsushita Pro Alpha should fit all your needs. Not sure about the price anymore tho.

Wait, you mean your table doesn't come with those little red LED lights that shows where the ball is gonna land? Man I thought I had it hard without the table having a holographic HUD to show the spin and speed of the ball....

penhold requires a more delicate touch and not everyone is born with that sort of "sense" at least that's what a old geezer chinese coach told me when he saw me trying out penhold for the first time he said he knew it by the way i hold my chopsticks during lunchtime.....yea its weird I know but...
