  1. Is it bad to mainly focus on the weight transfer while having a fixed arm for doing a forehand drive?

    bitter old guys are adorable, they play sports for all the wrong reasons. Don't even pay attention, a quality shot always involves weight transfer and footwork, playing with your hand is easy and anyone can do it. Besides falling to your left leg is the best way because you store energy in...
  2. CNT ditched Wang Manyu for WTTC in Doha 2025

    So why they didnt select WMY?
  3. Which top player(s) inspired you to play?

    waldner, kreanga, samsonov, boll,persson and jean philippe gatien was also a favorite in 1993-1995, especially when he won world champs. His footwork was the best in the world, the guy was a beast and he had probably an above average backhand
  4. Rubber thickness

    yes with the speed glue the effect of max rubbers was way way bigger than it is today. You will definitely see a difference between 1,8 an 2,1 or 2,2 but its not something really huge. this principal is still valid of course, if you feel ok with 2.0mm there is no need to change it
  5. Do TTD work for WTT now?

    They are doing a great job with the new series of podcasts indeed, I don't know if they do work for WTT, I suppose not cause we would see a different "product" under the WTT banner by now. I hope they do have some kind of co-operation though, it is about time that the stupid camera angle...
  6. Which part of body use is more important when doing forehand topspin?

    speaking of forehands, ryu's technique is so fluid and with such a stable footwork. I also like the mindset about training explained @ 0:38 and afterwards
  7. Which part of body use is more important when doing forehand topspin?

    oh I was too happy I guess to finally see someone post himself playing, anyway
  8. CORKSCREW --the best rewarding type of spin.

    Rofl the amount of time you spend to analyse for a simple rotation. Whatever the name of this spin (and no gauzy's is not a "corkscrew" spin) you can easily kill it because the point with zero rotation is right in front of you. This corkscrew or whatever you want to call it, rotates around the...
  9. Which part of body use is more important when doing forehand topspin?

    you have the understanding of the movement , but your coordination could be so much better, just relax and dont think too much about it, I can tell you are stiff and trying too hard to execute the shot perfectly Just relax and let your weight "fall" on your right leg, let the hips follow the...
  10. Can Anybody please Compare Speed,Spin,Control, Stifness, Flexibility,Wood Composition Of Sanwei Echo Blade Vs Dhs Wind Series W3010 Blade ???

    Nothing beats personal feeling. I have tried dozens of blade with the same wood or carbon composition and simply some of them just feel better than the others when I play.
  11. OSP Virtuoso+ vs Vurtuoso AC

    I have played with virtuoso OFF- for many years, played for 2-3 months with the virtuoso+ and it is definitely very similar with the korbel blade, dont take "very similar" too seriously as different players have different needs I have no clue about virtuoso AC, but I have played a bit with the...
  12. How do I improve my backhand? (closed)

    Hello, you can send me a private video if you like. I do not consider my self a top coach but if you are an amateur I am quite sure I can help you. I was trained by some of the top greek coaches in thessaloniki when I was a kid/teenager and after a hiatus I am training again (lyubomir...
  13. Nittaku Acoustic handle size

    Thanks alot my friend! Really helpful
  14. Nittaku Acoustic handle size

    Thanks a lot , I would really appreciate it if you have such a blade and measure the circumference also! I know I may sound weird but in my hands even 2mm less or more can have big impact in my control and feeling of the blade
  15. Nittaku Acoustic handle size

    Can anyone inform me about the circumferene and height of nittaku acoustic large handle (straight handle) and the G revision (straight handle also) Length would also be nice but I am more interested in the thickness of the handle so I can know in advance if it will fit perfectly in my hand
  16. WTT CAMERA ANGLE

    Lol shararah didnt do anything special either I just watched wtt star contender doha, it still does not make any sense! The adverts are only 2 ! DHS advertisement on the sidelines/boundaries and a ganten advertisment on the floor In frakfurt there was also an ad for agricultural bank of china...
  17. WTT CAMERA ANGLE

    That is pretty bad though for commercializing the sport even more. It is crazy how they dont see it. All paddle/racket sports have the overview camera angle. I guess they dont care much when they enjoy the money from the sponsors
  18. WTT CAMERA ANGLE

    Does anyone know why after all these years, WTT insists on this pathetic angle/viewpoint ??? I mean do they even read the comments of their viewers/customers? They do an excellent job on social media, but the current camera angle is simply appalling and I dont watch matches anymore cause I dont...
