  1. World Table Tennis Championships 2017

    You forgot to mention their strange ritual-dance around a platform while slapping balls around
  2. Stats of CNT players against non-CNT players 2017

    Valid points, but I think you're missing the point of the discussion Sent from my MyPhoneMY27 using Tapatalk
  3. Stats of CNT players against non-CNT players 2017

    Totally agree. But here's something to think about, if ZJK really is that unprofessional why haven't LGL and co. do anything about it? They could be sending players like Liang Jikun and Wang Chuqin instead of him to the world tour events. Sent from my MyPhoneMY27 using Tapatalk
  4. Can China's table tennis team be beaten?

    I think it's worth pointing out that non of the Chinese players made it to the semis in the Swedish Open, granted, they are the B-Team, but the gap between the top Europeans and the top Chinese (outside the big 4) seems to be getting smaller. Of course, there are other factors, such as...
  5. Jean Michel Saive is planning to run for ITTF President

    Don't get me wrong, I think Saive would be a great candidate for ITTF president. HOWEVER, we all saw how dreadfully done the transition to the poly ball was; and that happened under a president who's been in the business world for quite some time. Which got me thinking. Saive would definitely...
  6. TTX is what the 4th August is all about - the new revolution of table tennis!

    And here I am wondering how great an investment something like this would've been instead of TTX [URL]https://youtu.be/1IgdiEjtzpI/URL]
  7. Win a signed Butterfly Tiago Apolonia ZLC blade!

    Men's Singles Gold - Ma Long Silver - Dimitrij Ovtcharov Bronze - Zhang Jike 4th - Marcos Freitas Women's Singles Gold - Ding Ning Silver - Li Xiaoxia Bronze - Feng Tianwei 4th - Kasumi Ishikawa As much as I want Vladi in the top three, I feel like Ovtcharov is gonna pull through against him...
  8. Opinions on what to do with my Michael Maze

    If I do decide to seal my handle, what type for sealant would you recommend? Sent from my MyPhoneMY27 using Tapatalk
  9. Schedule for Main Draw

    Looking through the website for Rio, I found nothing on when the draws were to be made. This is of utmost importance to me. It is a matter of winning a signed Apollonia blade or DEATH ;) Sent from my Tardis using telepathic link
  10. Opinions on what to do with my Michael Maze

    But will the sweat on the handle really affect the wood and carbon on the main body of the blade? I know of players here who seal, varnish, or laminate their blades (either the whole blade to prevent splintering or just the handle). But would giving my blade the above mentioned treatments alter...

    Here's the handle pic I forgot to attach to original post.
  12. Opinions on what to do with my Michael Maze

    Hey all! I recently acquired a 2nd hand Michael Maze ALC blade, and it is an absolute pearl! However, during practice (4 hour sessions) and matches I turn into a human waterfall. I'm looking for a way to "sweatproof" my blade, but I really do like the feel of wood against my palm. So my...
  13. Ask Michael Maze a question on the TTD podcast!

    What's the best way to wear a sweatband around your head? And also: If there was one thing you could change about your game (Technique, style), what would it be? Sent from my MyPhoneMY27 using Tapatalk
  14. Ask Michael Maze a question on the TTD podcast!

    He was interviewed in the ITTF's YouTube video on the Olympian training camp in Denmark recently, so he's probably very involved with the sport Sent from my MyPhoneMY27 using Tapatalk
  15. Singapore Table Tennis clubs, stores, and interesting places.

    Hey all! I'll be in Singapore for the next 6 days. Are there any clubs and stores that you guys could recommend me? And maybe I could play a couple of matches against anyone willing (although O didn't bring a racket). Another thing I'm really interested in is the training schedule of the...
  16. Hurricane and Skyline rubbers not tacky?

    I'm back in the forum!! And like any TT forum member I've felt the urge to come back and post my COMPLAINTS. Ahahaha, I'm obviously exaggerating, but kidding aside, I've come across a recurring problem: my sheets of Hurricane and Skyline aren't tacky! The first time I tried DHS rubbers about a...
  17. Proposed Increase in Net Height!

    I think what's happening in the ITTF right now is that they tried to hit the nail on the head with the Poly Balls, but they ended up hitting it sideways and it's even harder to fix now than before they tried to fix it. What they should've fixed was the presentation and image of the sport. I...
  18. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2016

    WOW, the stadium is packed and the spectators are throbbing!! Great to see, even if some of them may be "extras"
  19. Zhang Jike Rage Moment

    Currently watching the Zhang Jike vs Jang Woojin and Adam Borrow mentioned an incident between the two of them during the Asian Games where Zhang Jike blew up. Anyone have footage of the incident?
  20. World Team Championship 2016 - TTD Competition!
