Are you saying at lower levels you need to develop a more offensive game with the LP? Since no one really loops the chops?

There are a good many pro chopper matches out there... but at the lower level, their style of play is pretty much non-existent! Nobody bothers to loop chops that much, and so for game strategy, I'm trying to find some players to emulate that are a bit more realistic. Say in the 1500-2300ish...

For those in china or in the know, how popular are the top chinese players?

Quite a haircut on that guy with the white... well, whatever that's called :p

lol, isn't that a hoot! Last time around I asked if Dan could have some fun exhibition style points instead of the pro doing insta kills every ball. Now that this video has that, of course the comments are complaining that the match wasn't taken seriously enough!

Not necessarily who I think WILL win... but who I'd be rooting for most: Kenta for men's Suh and Yang for women's

I don't think there are any decent posts being made in this thread :p

The real question is, what do YOU think about it! Since you'll be the one using it... equipment is always subjective and player based. Without even knowing someone's basic play style, it further makes the question impossible to answer.

Yeah, she got lucky 3 matches in a row ;)

It's more comical that the player base has such little faith in the ITTF, that they thought this could actually be legit... lol

http://www.nbcolympics.com/video/dimitrij-ovtcharov-bojan-tokic-play-marathon-match Quality description by NBC as well: The Slovenian Dimitrij Tokic outlasted Bojan Ovtcharov from Germany, 33-31, but before playing 26 minutes of back and forth table tennis.

Depending on your location/money and all that, one thing going around now growing in popularity is stem cell therapy (still on the 'cutting edge' so to speak). Regrowing/repairing human cartilage is also something they can do.

No mercy shown there until game point! I'd like to see the pros do some more exhibition/humiliation style points throughout :P I don't think there's any doubt on who is better... so perhaps less 3rd ball kill for some fun ball kills instead!

SHeeeit! Him and Chetchinne (spelling) will be playing even when they have to hold onto walkers! Same reason He Zhi Wen out there whooping whipper snapper butt!

I found myself in a rough spot during a match, being down 0-10. Things weren't looking great, but I told the other guy "Ok, I can't let you have anymore." He gave me a laugh. I went on to win that game 12-10! I've seen Xu Xin come back to beat Jun Mitzutani after being down 10-4. That match was...

Do you have those video links handy?

Do you have those video links handy?

I've been using tenergy 64fx on the forehand, and it had been working nicely... until I moved up the ranks a bit to more skilled players! The spin sensitivity has been getting to me as of late -- and true, I could hold out and try to learn how to adapt and utilize the extra spin. However, I...

Are any of these 3 rubbers good for a kind of passive blocking game (insensitive to spin but still decent pace), along with nice smashing abilities?

It's hard to judge distances on those 3/4 overhead views most matches are filmed from... does anyone have a good selection of videos from the side view that show how far back the pro players stand? Both male and female?
