Does anyone have experience with both the Sanwei Nova Carbon and either Donic Original / Ovtcharov Carbospeed or Donic Waldner Legend? Any difference? All three have Hinoki outer ply+ carbon + kiri core. I have the Legend and REALLY like it and would like to eventually get either the...

OMG what is this video? I feel like I will receive a Ringu horror phone call soon saying "Seven days. Advan sed grip."

As someone who doesn't compete, I've sometimes wondered what my rating would be. From this video, I rate my top half at 1800 :), and my bottom half (footwork) at 800. :(

Old thread (pre-Covid!) and both the OP and zzzupp no longer post... but I had a question in my mind: I was wondering if there are TT books that were "must reads", that were written in Chinese, Japanese, Korean, European, and other TT power countries, and were not known or readable by English...

Very clearly "Austria" to me. We need someone to adjudicate, preferably someone objective, like another Aussie :cool:

Even the umpire did not like Chulong Nie (5:46 "Game to Austria", not Australia) ;)

Discus! Your loops must be Xu Xin level strong

Yeah I saw that product too. Interesting to see how well it would work on a rubber sole that qualifies as anti-spin... oh, now I wonder what happens if you spray something like grip-x on a topsheet .

Interesting. I might try it too and see how long it lasts.

A friend's badminton shoes (Mizuno, which he uses for TT) is still structurally sound. The sole does not show wear and tear. However, after just a year it has lost its original grippiness and is quite useless now (and it's not fake, bought from Mizuno directly). My suspicion is this is largely...

I asked an AI to draw up a 3 year plan starting from 2000 and become 2400. It's too wordy but a few points stood out for me (nothing you don't already know, but others may not, and I don't know if this is true): - Winning an upset can yield 20-50 points - Beating someone ranked lower gives you...

If the OP wanted to get to 2400 by age 15, how could he achieve this? I'm not asking about how to improve his skill (already covered by Tony and PongCommenter et al) but about actually attaining that rating. Does he have to win specific competitions? Beat N number of players rated 2400 and...

Do as I do, not as a say.

You're in a different league altogether. This is the children's section.

Crap I have 16. Rubbers are mostly Friendship 729 Super FX or Hurricane 3 commercial. One setup has Mercury II.

No column for brand? (Butterfly, DHS, etc).

I'd like to see Simon Gauzy play Pascal, Dan or Tom play Ted, Otto from Pongfinity play Swede (no one can tell a Scandi from a Finn anyway).

Is there a Taiwanese / Chinese term for EJ?

Welcome. Is the voice yours? I was wondering what "ETTF" was (1:57). Maybe how a Swede pronounces 'ITTF" (It's not a criticism. It's just makes me curious). My only suggestion as to how this video can be improved (for me personally) is to add more detail so it's not too general. For...

Speaking of prophets... in the second video, at timestamp 0:19 to 0:21, I don't understand how the ball stopped rolling away. Did the scrub yell "stop right there!"
