  1. TTD Team Spin Challenge With WORLD CHAMPION!

    Did Dan and the TTD team know the App cannot be used in the UK? I’m pretty sure he would have mentioned this being a UK citizen.
  2. TTD Team Spin Challenge With WORLD CHAMPION!

    I suggest you remove access to your website for UK residents, there are prices quoted for the equipment and App monthly subs, someone could sign up to a service that is currently NOT available. They could also invest in a Phone, at high cost to themselves and be left with nothing usable. Such a...
  3. TTD Team Spin Challenge With WORLD CHAMPION!

    Hi, I’ve been told that Spinsight IS NOT supported in the UK and won’t be for months to come, which is disappointing if this is the case. 😫 A little misleading for UK viewers. please confirm whether the App is supported in the UK and if not when it will be.
  4. New rubber time. Help?

    When I was playing as a junior I used a Tamca 5000, one of the 1st carbon blades, with tackiness D and Sriver, back then I could play well with this combo. After a 30+ yr lay off, I started playing again, put Stiga Mantra M on the Tamca 5000 gave it a try and basically had no control !!! Since...
  5. New rubber time. Help?

    I’ve moved from O8C/H to Z03 - lightly tacky to non tacky, but I use an all wood blade. Z03 behaves nicely on an all wood blades !!! Compared to being harder to control / optimise the spin potential on a blade with fibres. Perhaps you should look at your blade again? How long have you been...
  6. What serve should I use?

    You don’t necessarily ‘need’ lots of different serve actions, but I feel it’s good to have them!! What I would say is that you should have 2 to 3 serve actions that are your ‘food and drink’ go to serve actions that you can concentrate on when practicing and playing matches. If you take into...
  7. New rubber time. Help?

    Personally I would say that Glazer is the weakest with less spin. Loki Arthur China has good spin potential and is more ‘direct’. H 8-80 plays like a slightly faster H3 / H3 Neo. Bearing in mind that I didn’t boost the H 8-80 when I used it. If you liked LAC then I think you’re going to like...
  8. New rubber time. Help?

    Xiom Omega 8 Hybrid and China (O8H/C) are pretty good, Xiom J&H H52 is another one from Xiom. The O8H/C have better durability. There is a large choice of Hybrid rubber out there, and rubbers made by ESN for brands like Donic, Andro etc are going to be very, very similar. BTY have Glayzer 09C...
  9. What serve should I use?

    A good serve is one that has a highly predictable recieve. So 7/10 times you have a really good idea where the ball will be played to and what spin it will have on it. Therefore you can prepare your 3rd ball attack. When you are in a rally, what is your best strength? You have a strong BH open...

    Qui Yuxuan won the semi pretty convincingly.

    Nice Andy!!! Keep playing and enjoying!!
  13. Setup Advice: Hard to Control in Matches

    Make sure you ALWAYS do some random exercises during your training sessions. This will be harder than a regular / patterned routine AND reflects matchplay better. An example is playing to your partners BH only and he blocks anywhere. Slightly less random would be they can only block a max 3...
  14. First time with H3N Rubber coming from d09c - How to boost and what to expect?

    From my limited use of boosters, one thing you may find is that you get different results regarding how the rubber / sponge plays / performs after boosting. As with everything practice makes perfect. Another reason for the spare bat. You can boost 1 sheet and just stick the other sheet straight...
  15. Butterfly Zyre 03

    I’ve used no tape, partial and fully taped bats, but never on 3 identical set ups to compare!! I’ve chipped edges & rubbers, lifted sponges etc with all 3 tape variations!!!
  16. First time with H3N Rubber coming from d09c - How to boost and what to expect?

    Yeah they are real expensive!! And that is an issue when you want to test equipment!! A question to ask yourself is whether the upgrade in cost between the long 5 and W968 is worth the ‘upgrade’ in your performance when using the W968 compared to the Long 5? TT11 has the long 5 @ €155 & W968 @...
  17. If you are the CNT boss, what would you do?

    I also think that since China ‘opened its doors’ to players and coaches from other countries alongside the modern technology / media available today, coupled with the amount of tournaments - both in regard to playing the Chinese players more (and the detrimental physical impact on players) has...
  18. If you are the CNT boss, what would you do?
