  1. WTT Champions Japan 2025 - 7-11 Aug 2025

    I've brought you the thoroughest analysis of today's final.
  2. Soft Sticky?

    Rasanter R37 the G.O.A.T.
  3. 2026 WTT Series Calendar

    Hope the U.S. Smash organizers have enough time and can afford buying new cameras that aren't Nokia phones leftovers from the 2000s :) Having non-shaky tables would also be a great improvement.
  4. I'm looking for an alternative rubber that lasts longer than the Tibhar Hybrid K3.

    How would you compare MK Hybrid and K3 durability? For those saying D09c is a fine replacement, I would say D09c is too different from K3. D09c far exceeds K3 in terms of durability, maybe it's also tackier. But playing characteristics are different: K3 is much livelier, faster, easier to...
  5. i dont think chinese rubbers do most people any favours

    H3 is usually the only chinese rubber you may see a decent player using. The other chinese rubbers are rarer, and you may typically see beginners using them--to negate the rebound and put the ball on the table. And you are probably a physical beast or a "simpler" player if you're able to play...
  6. FISU World University Games 2025

    People with questionable views are not the same as people with questionable views who exercise war/genocide. Your mental gymnastics would be funny if it weren't in a horrible context.
  7. FISU World University Games 2025

    It's very nice of you spreading russian Z-propaganda across the Table Tennis forum and gaslighting others :)
  8. FISU World University Games 2025

    I think you got to the wrong forum, buddy. The RT club is two blocks down :)
  9. FISU World University Games 2025

    1) scale matters - right now Russia conducts a brutal bloodbath that is comparable to WW2 level of casualties without any reason in just several years. I don't defend the U.S., but their deeds were hundred times less and they happened a couple of decades ago. 2) Russia has a disproportionately...
  10. Butterfly Dignics 64 alternative.

    Given Dignics' solid durability, are you sure about switching the rubber? In the best case scenario, you will get a rubber that is close to D64 but lasts less, thus doesn't save you money :)
  11. What are the differences of Hurricanes that are Provincial and ones that are National?

    The national version has better product consistency, while the provincial is more susceptible to deviation.
  12. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Fan Zhendong ALC + Tibhar MK Pro. And a used Dignics 05. Traded it for a new TB ALC that I purchased from Japan :) TB turned out to be crazy fast, a bit too much. Fan Zhendong ALC is 91g, around 1500hz, TB ALC is 87g, around 1430hz. Both with fish scale surface.
  13. Felix Lebrun lost 14 direct points on serve when faced Wang Chuqin

    Thanks for not reading my post. I will repeat: you can only blame ITTF/WTT that they interpret the rule the way they do during TTR challenges.
  14. Felix Lebrun lost 14 direct points on serve when faced Wang Chuqin

    You can only refer to ITTF or WTT, who don't view blocking the ball view during the toss as a violation of rules. As of right now, the interpretation is that you only must keep the ball visible during the VERY moment of contact. I was the original "hater" of WCQ's serves, thinking he was the...
  15. Felix Lebrun lost 14 direct points on serve when faced Wang Chuqin

    So you deliberately pause during the moment of the toss and ignore the moment when the ball touches the racket? That's a bit dodgy, mister :)
  16. United States Smash 2025, Las Vegas, 7/3-13

    I feel that "strategizing" against Wang Chuqin works when he is outside of his peak like the current week. When he is in top form, it's only peak Fan Zhendong who has a decent chance (which we may never see tho).
  17. United States Smash 2025, Las Vegas, 7/3-13

    Imo, the style from ML in that game is unreplicable. His backhand, with all its flaws, is unique and semi-flat, which none of the modern top players have. Also, you need to be mentally ready to play the best player in the world in a "I don't give a F" mode and make 100% commitments to unleash...
  18. United States Smash 2025, Las Vegas, 7/3-13

    I was amazed by Tomo's bounce back in games 6 and 7. Not only did Tomo lose two sets where he had a big lead, but LSD also had so many lucky net balls. Great mental fortitude by Harimoto, respect.
  19. United States Smash 2025, Las Vegas, 7/3-13

    Is it just me or the video quality is ass? Even the 1st table has low framerate and slightly fuzzy video quality. The other tables are even more laggy. Did they buy cameras at a 11.11 AliExpress discount?
