  1. Average to Pro Table Tennis Serve in 7 Days!

    I recently wanted to practice pendulum fast serves. I noticed that, if I do things correctly, I only need like 20% to 30% of my strength to make a super fast serve. I am surprised how little effort it needs, it really is mostly about skill. So I wonder for spin, does the same principal...
  2. Barefoot shoes

    I use barefoot (thin & flat sole, wide toe room) shoes for long distance running and walking, no problem. But if I play TT with them, I would feel the sore and strain on the outer side of my right foot for a couple days. Anyone has the same issue?
  3. Idea of a new technique - hitting with your hand

    haha so I am not the first one thought of it. I think it would be a fun thing to do when playing a casual game with friends.
  4. Idea of a new technique - hitting with your hand

    Didn't know it's only allowed for accidental occasions. No wonder nobody ever tried this. lol
  5. Idea of a new technique - hitting with your hand

    It's legal if the ball hits any area below the wrist of your racket hand. Can we intentionally hit the ball with the back of our hand? I think it would function like a defensive anti. This could cause big surprise if you use it once in a while. It's just a random thought. Never actually try...
  6. Why did DHS skipped 4, 5, 6, 7?

    that's not what I meant. I meant other players would rise, and they use other rubbers which would get more exposure.
  7. Why did DHS skipped 4, 5, 6, 7?

    I thought H8 was meant to be a successor. I never tried that so I don't know. But H3 is very popular in China, probably the best seller every year. It's unique and it's not expensive, so I don't see many people want to switch. So there is no urge for DHS to look for a successor. One possible...

    The correct technique requires not adjusting the racket angle during a stroke, but this AI says otherwise.

    Sorry if this is discussed already. I must missed it or forgot about the details - this post is so long. For all the pre-set drills, I must place the robot at a certain location with a certain orientation right? How do I know where to put it. Or how should I calibrate it?
  10. Mantra Pro H

    7 months? It looks like new. So this rubber can last like 2 years or something? I might get one in the future.
  11. DHS DJ40+ vs RS40+

    same thing in my area. Nittaku seems to be the gold standard
  12. Pongbot Nova S Pro owners' review and discussion thread

    The table tennis community has all the smart people! The web app sounds fantastic! Many thanks in advance, especially to plunder, smee0815, and olanga. I have a few questions. 1. for home use, does the power chord have reasonable length? Do you think I should buy the power bank also? 2. Anyone...
  13. Pongbot Nova S Pro owners' review and discussion thread

    Do you know how long the spring sale would last? I want to do some research before buying. Your reviews are very valuable! But this might take me a few days to go through everything. My purpose is just to correct some bad habits, improve my consistency, and have some multi-ball to get some...
  14. Match tactics

    Seeing an incoming backspin, my judgement is usually just 2 categories - light & heavy. Sometimes I would feel it's somewhere between, and sometimes I would think it's more than heavy, when playing against long pip choppers. But seeing your post I wonder, are advance level players able to see...
