  1. Dignics 80 Review | 5 Things You Need To Know

    "Any darn fool can make something complex; it takes a genius to make something simple." Same complaints from those youtube videos are valid - quality control with the rubbers (1 tacky 1 not tacky) etc. did not give accurate testing, especially not across multiple sheets etc. And as you...
  2. Article: Liu Guoliang on whos better: Jan Ove Waldner or Ma Long!

    Waldner would not stand a chance against the consistent, heavy power loopers that rule the game now. Waldner does a few blocks and look-aways here and there, gets the old geezers to rally behind him! But if you want to talk about who would win against more players... c'mon! Very obvious...

  4. Dignics 80 Review | 5 Things You Need To Know

    Not sure what the hell all that means, Haha! But measurements are junk as well. Since people use different strokes and types of contacts. I think the crowd consensus is about the best way to judge a rubber I've seen. Or find someone who plays like you on similar equipment and see what they say
  5. Going soft? (Rubber suggestions moving away from MX-S?)

    All of the evolution rubbers have bad durability from what I've seen. If you like them, just buy a bunch from tt11 at the discount price and keep them stored for those days of defeat from slick rubber surfaces.
  6. It Doesn’t Always go to Plan… | TableTennisDaily Team | Ep 4

    Good series! Always like seeing the team and their antics, along with the behind the scenes look. Man, I thought the poor german was about to faint before his match... bahaha! The editing along with the title made for a good, suspenseful finish. But next time you might need some subtitle...
  7. TableTennisDaily Team | Ep 3 | Can they handle the heat

    Man that tom is an annoying player! Haha... lanky athletic physique, with great consistency and can run those balls down. Would be a nightmare to go against
  8. Soul spin blade

    Soulspin is great! All the blades I use now are made by them. You can get different handle weights by choosing different materials. As for the size, it depends what you're looking for. Smaller has less flex etc.
  9. Anthony Joshua started fighting at 18 How many late starters at TT has they're been?

    I think fighting is quite a bit different. In that sport, you have basic genetic 'gifts' that account for a lot. Sure, training can overcome some elements... but not all. Can you take a punch? Are you a naturally strong KO artist? Do you have exceptionally fast reflexes and anticipation (this...
  10. Moristo SP Vs Moristo SP AX

    ap is faster, has more grip
  11. Wrist or no wrist in forehand

    From what I see, people who use "wristy" top spins generally dont use much body or rotation. Many people use wrist snapping as a way to get extra power and compensate for not using the rest of their body
  12. Who is fitter- Defenders or attackers

    For me anyway, drilling say, forehand loop against underspin is much more fatiguing than drilling a backhand chop vs a loop. But that's without movement... I think generally defenders must have more enduring legs in the long haul. They don't need to be ultra quick, as some attackers are when...
  13. 17 year old Truls Moregard vs TableTennisDaily’s Dan!

    It was obvious Dan went easy on him. He could sense Truls was a nervous child, and so gave many charity points. But he turned the heat up for those edgeballs, just to let him know that if he wants to play with the big boys -- gotta up his game!
  14. Topspin arc with a slow soft (defensive) blade

    Victas 401 is great for that type. I use it on my big, slow over-sized defensive blades and can still crank out MEGA LOOPS! It won't be as fast as the much quicker, higher catapult rubbers... but the spin can be insane, and it's wonderful to chop with. If you want something fast to attack...
  15. Soft or hard rubber for better blocking ?

    if the person is lesser skilled or playing slower, try using more active strokes or mini drive type hits good blocking blades are usually fast, unless you are a pure control blocker but being fast, makes them harder for the other shots you describe for rubbers, i think fast thick and soft...
  16. Breaking News - Mizutani Exposed for Cheating

    Not too surprising. What would surprise me is if the number of pro athletes who DON'T "cheat" on their wives/gfs is greater than the ones who do.
  17. [LP] Chinese Alternative for Long Distance Defense

    "Should create heavy back spin" isnt all that helpful. Reason being, the spin can be 'created' by reversal or mainly by friction of the pips. Do you want something like feint 3 or curl p4, where it has lots of friction and can impart a decent amount of spin, but very low reversal? Or something...
  18. Comparison between ALC and ZLF

    If you like the ZLF style (slower with good spin capabilities), then you should look into the basalt blades. They'll be cheaper, and in my estimation, better for spinning!
  19. Anti or long pimpled rubber vs fast rubber like tenergy

    I believe Suh Hyo Won started with long pips at age 11 or so.
  20. China national championships

    Though to be fair, samsonov plays against chtchetinne all the time, and very rarely loses to choppers. I dont recall seeing him lose to a chopper, actually...
