We are not! And truthfully… I don’t think we are good enough to be honest. The guys in TTDSL are all top top players in the UK - I doubt most of them play local league. Badgers are a very good local league team - One of the best around. But that next step up is big, and whilst we may put up...

Don't listen to Haito - He's a European Serving Champion....

Always hard to interpret tone on the internet, but apologise if you took my previous comment as a dig in any way. Far from it! I guess my question is….. Do you feel the effort of being a TT content creator is worth it? Because from the outside, it looks like a huge amount of effort, for little...

Yeah, I think that's a valid point from a "does table tennis as a sport appeal to the casual watcher" - And the answer is generally a "no". But how do content creators engage with the TT community? I'd hazard a guess that *most* of the UK players playing in local leagues watch zero TT on...

Hey Tom, I remember when you started making videos - Not because they were targeted at me as such, but because they stood out for the sheer fact it was table tennis content on YouTube!! This *very* closely follows what I feel. I've made videos in the past, and with the 2 teams I'm involved in...

This seems to relate to the professional game though, Ken? I'm talking about outside of the professional game - Other sports have content creators (like TTD) who have huge followings and produce lots of different content. Table tennis seemingly has very few. I've seen this in other sports more...

I've been thinking about this for a while, and the recent $1,000 PingPod exhibition match has brought it back to the forefront. For those who missed it, PingPod recently streamed a match involving their CEO and Tim Cudjoe, with Dan and Beast providing commentary. Firstly, credit to everyone...

It looks like it was supposed to be @Jussigalaxy - Dan can edit him back! lol

I'm not sure Leon is on the forum? One More Chop is Florian (tall guy! lol)

I'm in 2 minds here.... But I appreciate a lot of my thoughts on Table Tennis are unique to me (or certainly not the popular opinion!) I *personally* find watching amateur table tennis quite dull (and yes, that absolutely includes watching myself!) There are rarely great rallies or shots, and...

That depends…. What can @SDC cook up!?

I've not played with the Super ALC or ZLC, but they aren't the fairest of comparisons with the standard OALC. OALC feel closer to an outer carbon blade - I didn't really feel MUCH difference between a TBALC and the OALC to be honest. I think the OALC holds on to some of that woody feeling and...

This will change as you improve. The harsh reality of amateur table tennis (99.999% of this forum) is that *hardly* anyone is consistent when it comes to counter looping away from the table in a match. You may see it on YouTube, either Pro's or channels like TTD, but the "away from the table...

This may just be a difference in environment, but even in the UK (which is generally quite poor at Table Tennis in general), a new player who is getting coaching (mostly juniors), for 4-6 months consistently, is likely in a stronger position than you are right now. And again, that is not meant...

I'll try and be direct without being blunt. Not every good player can coach or pass on *relevant* advice to others. Fan Zhendong telling me to get as low as he does on his forehand counters might sound like great advice.... But he's 5 foot nothing and I'm 6 foot 4 (the years of CNT training...
