  1. Sponge hardness is not the end of story...

    Yeah. It looks like, Gozo, you missed this conversation which went on and on and on and on from when Tenergy came out with Tenergy 05, 64, and 25. Those were the first three Tenergy rubbers. They all have the same exact sponge hardness. They all have the same exact topsheet. The only...
  2. Questions about Switching to Chinese Tacky Rubbers

    This also depends on the person like what I posted in your other thread asking about DHS 301 blade vs DHS Fang Bo Carbon blade. Maybe others would like to give you their opinion.
  3. Questions about Switching to Chinese Tacky Rubbers

    Vitor: you must post in English. Google Translate for above is: "Is it worth switching from the European tension rubbers and trying the Chinese sticky rubbers?" No more posts in Portuguese. You can write in Portuguese and use a translator to turn it into English if you want. But all future...
  4. Can Anyone Compare DHS 301 blade with the Fang Bo Carbon blade?

    To give one answer to your question: best choice depends on many variables. In the end, there is no such thing as best choice. Your level of play, your financial situation, what you have used before, those might factor into what might be A BETTER CHOICE FOR YOU: FOR YOU. What might be a good...
  5. Can Anyone Compare DHS 301 blade with the Fang Bo Carbon blade?

    Translation from Portuguese by Google Translate: "What is the best choice?" Vitor, this is an English speaking forum. When you post, please use some kind of translator if you cannot post directly into English. Thank you in advance.
  6. How do i know if my rubber is dead

    Be clear. Which rubber do you think is dead. In your original post, you said Nittaku G1. Then you say Donic Coppa JO Gold. It could be both, but the dead rubber could not have magically swapped from one to the other. The first exercise in that video, if you actually know how to do it...
  7. When to upgrade rubber?

    Trying those exercises will help improve your touch and control in the game. A lot of times, newer players don't see the reason for them. But without that kind of control of the blade face, it makes it much harder to really increase the amount of spin you are putting on the ball. And for...
  8. When to upgrade rubber?

    You will find it interesting how weird exercises like those, off the table, will help you improve your contact. Some of these are similar but the video breaks down and explains the exercises. These will also help you assess the quality of your contact and how much control you have over the...
  9. When to upgrade rubber?

    There are people who have that theory that you need to use the unforgiving equipment that will make it so you have to be perfect to use it and that is better for a developing player than more forgiving equipment. The flaw in that theory is, what happens to a player who does not have the precise...

    Thanks for translating into English in a timely manner. In the future do your best to translate into English before you post.
  11. Impressions from my club: How badly do you want to win?

    I really can't imagine being the player forced to play people that many levels lower. To me, it is absolutely boring to try and play competitively against players I should be able to beat with my left hand. It makes no sense to me why someone would let themselves be used like that. I'd rather...
  12. Which part of body use is more important when doing forehand topspin?

    For me, the first thing that was interesting was how much better my contact was when I got back on the table. And, when I first started doing it, I was doing at least 30 min in front of a mirror. I feel like it also improved my reset and recovery (to be ready for the next shot).
  13. Which part of body use is more important when doing forehand topspin?

    Yeah, maybe my top line numbers are off and maybe he didn't say 5000. He may have said 1000. It was ages ago. But also, my FH was really broken at the time. I don't know what is going on with Rodin's strokes. And I wasn't telling him he had to do what I had to do to fix my strokes since I...
  14. Which part of body use is more important when doing forehand topspin?

    @Rodin: If you understand kinetic chains and movement, the stroke is a movement pattern. All the parts are coordinated, synchronized, and connected. If you lose one part of the kinetic chain, what happens is, other parts of the chain will work too hard and you will end up with strain...
  15. Which part of body use is more important when doing forehand topspin?

    @TTFrenzy: I could be wrong. But I think that video is one he pulled off the internet to show "good" form and use of whole body rather than what he is doing. That video is from the YouTube Channel "AllAboutTableTennis". They are a YouTube TT channel. @Rodin: Is that YOU or is that a video...
  16. How do I improve my backhand? (closed)

    BTW: in my opinion @Lula's post and @NextLevel's post have everything you need. :) Post footage or make footage for yourself and start getting down to the hard repetitive work of working on your BH. Robot, Shadow strokes in front of a mirror so you can see what you are doing, self hitting...
  17. How do I improve my backhand? (closed)

    @Jan_ POST VIDEO. If anyone is still trying to give advice to Jan_ without seeing what he is doing, I have a question for you: I would like a new pair of TT shoes. What size should I get? If you can't tell me my size shoe without seeing and perhaps measuring my feet, then you can't tell...
