  1. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Yes because he was pushing my long serve like a chopper but unfamiliar way. I always thought that I should keep doing it, because my backspin(!) serve flipped or pushed awkwardly. Because his returns disturbed me a lot, I failed while playing against those returns. There was blocker with 200...
  2. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Thank you for the detailed explanation. I still remember how I felt nervous during points while watching my game. Looks like the brain is still dead :) Because it was an away game and I had 5 minutes to get warm, I had less confidence on my critical shots. He was returning my long serves with...
  3. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Hey guys, Yesterday I played against a guy who has 100 TTR more than me. He had kinda Seamiller grip. I tried different placement, speed as much as possible during serves on first set. The more sets we played, the more he got used to my game. Even though I lead 2-0, I lost 3-2. My...
  4. how to deal with Tomahawk service

    There was a guy who uses tacky rubber and does tomahawk with extreme powerful top-side spin which always goes crosscourt and long. I lost a match while trying topspin or block against this strong serve. On the next match I tried an unorthodox technique. I tried to pull my racket backwards the...
  5. BH Rubber help.

    Have you tried your FH rubber(T05) on your BH? You can't have everything at once. You should give up on at least one of them. You say that T05FX good to loop. If you are not an advanced player, then you are doing lazy spin with it. To have a less bouncy rubber for block and punch with same...
  6. Cheaper T05H - T05 Combination Alternative

    I tried BS Z1 and Z2 on max. Durability was very bad. But you get more control. Less spin than G-1 and of course T05. It feels little bit dead after weeks. Ball arc is low. I remember the times on my backhand wrist snapping action felt ache while trying to generate arc. I totally recommend you...
  7. Cheaper T05H - T05 Combination Alternative

    I bought; FH: Friendship Battle II (no boosting) BH: Nittaku Fastarc G-1 Yesterday I did my first training with these equipments. FH rubber is complete dead until I do Tenergy-like topspin. It has less topspin than Tenergy 05. But when rip it, it is spinning like never before. I couldn't do...
  8. What is the fastest 4h rubber

    It depends how hard your average hit is. If you are not hard hitter, then go for Bryce type least spin-softer rubber(Maybe T64). If you are really hitting hard as if you are breaking someones chin with your racket, then go for the thinnest rubber possible. Sent from Tapatalk
  9. Pointers welcome from 37 year absence

    Welcome! I was back after 9 years too. I regret that I gave up on this sport... I have lots of over 70 and 80 friends in my club right now and they are around 1500 TTR, 1850 USATT. This sport has absolutely no age limitation. My recommendation would be just stick with the equipment you have...
  10. Currently thinking of switching from T05-fx to Hurricane 3...

    That is possible but, you need time to adjust your strokes. Your swing should be way faster in order to generate same amount of topspin. Don't get disappointed if you fail first few weeks, try to get use to swing faster. If possible get some private coaching. I know, by using harder rubber...

  12. GEWO Nexxus EL Pro 50 or 53

    Oh, I am not the one who has this issue. I experience this whenever I am in loop to loop rallies with soft rubbers, after 2-3 loop ball ends up at net. Very irritating. Sent from Tapatalk
  13. Tactics

    I am reading table tennis tactics for thinkers book from Larry Hodges. He mentions that there is two type of possibility of trying variation at the beginning and see what works for you, and the other going for the best shots the player trained. Briefly, don't overdo either and don't forget to...
  14. Good rubber for lifting/attacking backspin (BH)

    As you are an intermediate player, if you train at least 3 days in a week and train hard, my recommend would be that you should play harder rubbers like >45°, otherwise go with softer ones. Sent from Tapatalk

    I think don't quit playing, maybe reduce frequency or your training method. If you train too much regular exercise, start doing irregular or vice versa. If you spend a lot of time in training hall in a day, drop it to 1hr 1.5hr and focus what you train then leave. I generally tend to quit...
  16. Cheaper T05H - T05 Combination Alternative

    Hi pgpg, thanks for reply. Briefly, I started table tennis 15 years ago, with a friendship's tacky rubber and Stiga's normal rubber. After stickiness is gone in a year, I played with Bryce for 3 years on an OFF blade. Then stopped playing for 8 years. Probably getting used to it previously, I...
  17. Cheaper T05H - T05 Combination Alternative

    Thanks Amaken23. Isn't it Rakza 7 soft in compared to 05H or 05? For my preference 05 is soft for my forehand.
  18. Cheaper T05H - T05 Combination Alternative
