  1. Should I boost my SP? (Alert: Long text!!)

    Hi guys, I need your help with this. I’m not sure if applying a boost to my short pips will work. I’m a penholder short pips player (RPB), and I haven't played for several years (since 2001). Two years ago, I started playing again, and everything changed: set 11 points, ball 40 mm, service...
  2. Best matches of contemporary table tennis?

    One of my favorite matches was more than 15 years ago but I think that your friend should watch it...the Olympic final 2004 Ryu Seung Min vs Wang Hao. Every time I see it, I feel exhausted only seeing Ryu's footwork... Gauzy v/s Liang Jingkun...magic!
  3. Post your latest EJ purchase

    I have heard different opinions about the Primorac Carbon...is a bit thin, it is light, it doesn't have good control...but never that it is slow XD

  7. Who are your top 10 table tennis players?

    I'm curious about why you think LSD is arrogant. Maybe there's something I'm missing. Regarding WCQ, I agree with you. I think he's cheating with his serves. But what I hate most are the WCQ fans. They scream during every match and never shut up! I don't have anything against him, but I hope he...
  8. New $215 course from Joao Geraldo

    I would pay that amount (or maybe more) only if Liu Guoliang offered an online course (in English) explaining the technicalities of a penholder SP. There is one in Chinese...and no idea what they are telling.
  9. Impact of US Tariffs policies on equipment price

    I think we should wait for the next move of Sport Squads (Joola's owner)... maybe they can do something locally (build a factory?) that will benefit the local players...
  10. Spinlord FH short pimples

    I'm penholder SP and my style is aggressive, hitter. I played a few years ago with Waran in the forehand, if you want to use it to attack, it will work. It is a bit hard, not so sensitive to the spin, and has a bit of a sink effect for your opponent, it is easy to attack long backspin shots, but...

    Hi TTD community...please, if somebody understands Chinese, could you tell me the name of the short pips penholder in this video? If you know more videos of him, I would appreciate it. Thanks!
  15. Anyone bought clothes of Prott.vip?

    I did it. I bought 3 Butterfly (?) shirt, 1 LI-Ning shirt and 1 Li-Ning short pants. I don't have Butterfly shirts to compare, but I can tell you that LI-Ning shirts seem to be of better quality. The Li-Ning short was a surprise because it looks good quality and has a really good fit. The only...
  16. Strategy against this player

    I'm an amateur player but I can see in the video: It would help if you took a more aggressive attitude, you are waiting for the opponent make the decision to attack, in the video: Set 1 point 1:4 and 2:7 you took the decision, attacked, and won the points. Set 2 1:3. 2:4 3:4. 5:4 the same...
  17. How to navigate through Stigas line of 5-ply allwood blades?

    I'm Penholder short pips RPB and I have played with Infinity VPS and Nostalgic VII (current blade). Both are very thin but a bit weird is that Nostalgic VII is heavy (92+-gr) for a penhold blade. Infinity gives you more feeling (vibration) when you hit the ball and more control. I would say...
  18. Finger placement penhold

    The finger's placement will depend mainly (not only) on your backhand. If you play only RPB (reverse penhold backhand), you can place your finger a bit curled. This will give you more rubber area to hit with RPB, but the forehand will be less strong (in power and spin). If you straighten your...
  19. WTTC 1997 DVD-Video

    In 2020, I bought several sets of DVDs from WTTC 95-WTTC99-WTTC2000 and Olimpics96 from Reflex because I wanted to have some matches that are not online, and are the copyright owners. I think that is fair to pay for it. The cost was $201 + $19 for shipping. The DVDs arrived 10 weeks later, even...
