Well from the little I know the Hinoki is so special and unique compared to every other blade out there, so i'm not sure how to even compare it to anything else.. I never seen one in person. What made you choose it over a fast carbon blade?

I'm wondering, with all the different inner/outer/ALC/ZLC/ special materials out there - I believe the All wood Acoustic is considered a pretty fast blade for an all-wood blade, is it correct to assume that EVERY composite blade will be faster/more powerful then all wood Acoustic? Which...

Just thought I'd update for the benefit future readers in a similar spot as i was. So I made switch from Rakza 7 soft in my FH to G1 2.0. played it for about 6 hours already. Honestly the difference is noticeable but not crazy at all. I have zero problem controlling with the new G1 rubber...

I'm playing with the Acoustic right now, can you please describe why you changed and what advantage do you feel now with the ZLC?

I get what you're saying - It probably won't effect my game at this point in time in a noticeable level. But it is interesting to think about - I wonder if the 1% of players who notice the difference can explain why they prefer to not use edge tape. or maybe some pro player explained it in an...

How necessary is the "press" part? I don't have any device, I can put some heavy books on the racket but do you really need to? and for how long?

Well, doesn't it make you wonder - if the pros only cover PART of their racket with edge tape - there must be a reason they don't cover it all, no?

I'm changing my rubber for the first time and Was just wondering what the experienced players think. 1) Does putting edge tape really hurts the "feeing" of the blade? In term of pure gameplay, is it better to NOT put any edge tape? I get that it protects the blade, but someone told me that its...

How do you mean? It's a fake match? what Am I missing here

I have acess to a coach, and he said I can change to G1 If I want, I guess he thinks i'm ready. He's not that involved with the equipment part. What you say here is what's bothering me. It's true i'm still perfecting my technique, but it's already at a decent level. I'm not a beginner in term...

Luka won so easily, it almost looks like Jorgic gave up! Never played againat this kind of player, can you explain the effect of his rubbers? Can Luka really consistently beat the best players in the world with his weird style?

thx for the advice. I ended up buying the G-1, but didn't install on it my racket yet. I'm winning plenty of points with my current FH rubber (Rakza 7 soft) - mainly with spin and placement. I do wonder if getting used to my Rakza 7 soft FH might create some bad habits? because it's...

wondering how does the Acoustic compare to Ma Lin Extra? Did you had a chance to play both?

Disclaimer - I don't have much experience ( a lot less then you) and my theoretical knowledge is somewhat limited. With that said - To me it's extremely clear that for some reason you're hitting VERY slow, high, and "safe". If that's how you're playing in practice (when you should really be...

found this vid which i think gives a great explnation

Thanks, the tip about the left leg adjusting makes a lot of sense, it already help me in training yesterday. Can you please elaborate more how do you fade the ball to opposite sidespin? I know what you mean, but not sure about how to execute the technique. In this example, I want to spin it...

HI Zezima, just wondering - how long have you been playing/training in table tennis? And what league are these matches from?

Thanks. Couldn't find the video you're referring to, do you maybe have a link? I get the adjusting the body part, but what exactly should I adjust with the Hand?

Thanks Lazer. Regardless of what direction im facing, I'm basically able to aim either straight or right with a quality backhand (fast and/or spinniy shot). I guess the question is, what's the proper technique if I want to aim wide left? (I'm right handed) with my BH? It seems like a much less...

hi all, would appricate any tips on this. I've got some decent quality on some shots - but don't have proper training with a coach. Assuming both players are right-handed : If someone attacks my backhand - my natural movement is to return the ball to the middle or to his backhand. This comes...
