  1. Looking for feedback in my FH loop

    Hi @isaacdl, I like the base structure of your FH loop, your elbow is nicely close to body during back-swing and you transfer power well - the proof is the position of your non-playing hand during ball contact. That is actually a thing you should be even more aware of, and experiment with it...
  2. How long does a blade lasts?

    Yes, these things suck. Couple of days ago I made a ding in freshly repaired blade... Now I have a new strategy in mind... As soon as I receive a new blade from Sergio, I'll ask/beg him to be put into queue right away ;-)

    Of course, it's possible it is not his decision... We may not know... But someone decided it... And it's the weakness... You're right, sometimes we may not see precisely, who or how, but still, after feeling hurt, you realize, such thing now simply can't hurt anymore...

    It's his weakness... If you understand it that way, you can only wish him well...

    Yes, of course. It doesn't matter what weakness...

    Hmm, it may disappoint you in the moment, and you may not feel well at that moment. But then you sleep on it and realize, it's just a weakness. Problem solved. From that moment on it simply can't affect you. Other example, you remember Yuan Licen dirty delaying, and if I remember, also LSD in...
  7. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Yesterday while practising a combination: backspin serve, op ret. to FH, open with FH loop, op block to BH, BH loop. I realized my bad habit to keep the hand a bit too low after transition from FH to BH, which results in lot of misses or blade edges (Kante). Just keeping the hand a bit higher on...

    Any hints for cheap all wood 5ply or 3ply blades... To buy 10-20 pcs... Thanks.
  9. Short review of Glayzer 09c

    Example: there is still a signif. diff. between D09C and regular Glayzer - when you put a protective sheet, it stick much more strongly to D09C than to reg. Glayzer or ESN rubber like O7P... I bet it's the same for G09C... And because we should edify each other ;-), I think you need serious...

    I think the unreturnable 1st attack does happen - if the opponent doesn't read the serve properly, and in this level, it is relatively rare. So mostly he (or anyone) expects it will be returned. The step-back is part of the motion... For me the difference was in 2 points: the power, and the...

    Actually in those matches his 1st attack was returned and he was ready, and either finished it or put it back slightly weaker and finished next. I really don't thing that will be the issue... Hmm, defense, I thought his defense was pretty cool too, see the match-point... Can't agree here. I...
  12. XIOM C55 Impressions and Comparison with H3N

    My intention was not to stop you... Imo, it's a rubber which is worth trying, but people may be disappointed, if they expect D09C durability... In compare to D09C the C55 has softer, more elastic, top-sheet, is my feeling. That is what I like (in compare) the most. The sponge is not completely...

    It seems XIOM doesn't give a s... See here, C57,5 --- we developed C52,5 ;-) For ref: C 57.5 Harder & Professional Forehand Version Pimple IN, Epsilon Sponge Forehand X FACTOR sticky rubber does not need the booster to make it softer. Amazing click feel to boost your confidence. We...

    Someone mentioned CNT will analyze Hugo thoroughly. Well, yes, but I'm convinced one of Hugo's strength is his thinking. He already did analyze the CNT... In fact I think that is actually what we admire so much, his will and dedication and hard work and intelligence... I mean WCQ is pure...
  15. XIOM C55 Impressions and Comparison with H3N

    C55 durability is not even close to D09C. I played with C55 I think 5 weeks during the season, the removed it, after season put it on again, and I got 3-4 weeks of it. Even outside looking players recognized there is less spin. So not only it was worn, but it also lost the spin very seriously...

    Nice moment after the match ;-)

    It really sucks to hear commentators who are simply not capable of noticing the nets... Long live Adam...

    In Incheon Hugo beat An Jaehyun so convincingly, but the next day he lost to Xiang Peng - OK, he was red hot and eventually won the tournament, but so was Hugo - I expected different, much more tight, match... I hope this time he'll sleep well...
  19. If you are the CNT boss, what would you do?

    @zeio, what's your opinion, how far in the future is the time when we will have to have weight categories like in martial arts ;-)))
