I have. Well, perhapes I haven't done a full research on it, doing interviews on people, reading published papers after papers and tracking back all the references. Chill man. It's a fun question. I'm not trying to battle you over keyboard on the legitimacy of boosting or how stupid and...

Although, I thought it is a Chinese term or at least had a root from Chinese language, which is what I have heard from people online, I have seen athletes around the world choing. Is the theory just wrong, or has it evolved into part of the table tennis celebrating tradition/culture worldwide?

Sad to see that TSP's top inverted rubber is on the commercial level but with an even higher price than the provincial level product from DHS.

what hardness for what condition? Just curious.

I have been window-EJing (the window shopping of EJing?) for a while now. I noticed that rubbers from TSP and Victas, for example Regalis, Super Ventus, V>15, VJC>07 are stated to have x±3° OF hardness (whatever X is). How much does the difference in hardness affect it's playing...

Ture. So basically only buy it when prices are similar. Too expensive? Buy from tt11. Too cheap? It must be Fake. However, I thinking some of the Chinese TT equipments can be cheaper while still being real. Not sure about cheap non-chinese equipment though. Probably fake.

What do you mean? Is it a reply to the original post?

Have you read the ping pong manga? Is it worth the time compare to anime?

So you have both straight and flared. Which one do you like more? Are they the large handle version? If not do you think that they are too small?

I think the confusion, at least for me, is difference between "Chinese vs European loop" or a better way to say it, the"full arm vs half arm loop" as different tactics. As far as I understand the difference is in the distance of play, the power and the intention behind the stroke. You are...

I wonder what he is frustrated about but he doesn't seem to be in the mood of explaining himself. BTW. That was a great thread. TTD should have a section for the selected most substantial threads.

Thank you. But one more question please. Isn't it just what you call a "drive", which is close to the table, more about taking the ball early to borrow your opponent's power, and where your shots land, insead of power(because you can't. you don't have the time generate it yourself.)? So what is...

I didn't even know that a bent arm is considered as a style:eek::eek::eek:. I always thought that it is a active vs passive thing. Obviously, you can get more racket head speed by allowing your elbow to release(straight) before contracting(bent) so that your arm muscles are generating power. I...
