  1. Most attractive table tennis players

    what are you suspicious of, that people have a sexuality?
  2. Yay! I am a looper now, so what next?

    I have the same problem. Speed often wins because my spin does not have enough quality ... but for it to get enough quality, I have to practice it in a match setting, but then I lose.
  3. Let us talk about the mental / psychology aspect of the game.

    You were tired from the day before -- your twitch muscle fibers were not firing as quickly as your brain structure is trained to respond given the same visual cues. Then, your rational brain made up a story about psychology after the fact. ... we need stories in order to give meaning to our...
  4. Dignics 09C on an Allwood blade

    I will just add my long-term experience with another hybrid-style rubber: Rakza Z. I have a flexible and bouncy classic all-wood blade (koto-spruce-ayous-spruce-koto). They say that its a good blade for tacky chinese forehand rubbers. My experience with Rakza Z on forehand was that it felt like...
  5. Nittaku manufacturing process video

    Thanks for sharing. The culture of maintaining craftmanship in Japan is dear to my heart. I dont know what it is, but I was touched by hearing Mima Ito initial reaction upon arriving to where the wood is cut. Maybe it was because my grandfather was a wood craftsman. It was simply too many of the...
  6. Nittaku manufacturing process video

    Kinda misleading to start with hinoki wood and not show a blade that uses hinoki wood? The interesting part to me is how the layers are put together, but I guess they were not allowed to show that.
  7. adhesive covers

    The butterfly ones are almost too sturdy and sticky ... it feels like its going to rip off the top layer of my rubbers. It all depends tho. I like to have backup equipment, so I notice how different rubbers, blades, protector sheets and basically everything functions differently when broken in...
  8. Since when did Kallberg change his name to Shallberry?

    We are in the dark part of the year here in Scandinavia and I currently dont have enough D-vitamin to find this funny. In fact, I am pretty annoyed with most people right now.
  9. How to improve timing?

    I think I have the same problem and I blame my old knees for my inability to lower myself to compensate for being too far away from the table in some situations, so I end up preferring being too close on some balls instead and just block the ones I dont have the time to swing for.
  10. What song are u listening to now?

  11. Since when did Kallberg change his name to Shallberry?

    Everyone seemed to be able to pronounce Ingmar Bergman. Its the same letters, man.
  12. DHS 301 or Butterfly Innerforce layer alc

    I wonder where the Sanwei 75 Inner ALC would be placed in this graph
  13. What's a better backhand rubber than G1 that's not Dignics?

    its easy to generate power if you are strong
  14. best tt shoe?

    also, I have tried to find information about if there is a height difference between the heel and the ball of the foot in mizuno shoes, but have not been able to find anything and I dont know how to measure it.
  15. best tt shoe?

    ... and are they true to size or similar to #8? I use EU 45 in #8, which means I have a full width of my thumbprint of open space infront of my foot in the shoe, just to make sure they are not too narrow. The weight of them are 330 grams. If I measure the widest part of my forefoot straight...
  16. best tt shoe?

    and what size is that?
  17. best tt shoe?

    If there would be zero drop, 175-200 gram, extra wide forefoot and with good grip, I would be all over it, but I havent found that yet. Currently using vivobarefoot primus lite 3, which are 259 grams (EU size 44) with suboptimal grip. I also have Mizuno Wave Drive 8, which are 328 grams in EU...
  18. Moral Question Here…

    No, but it is a really hard game mentally because of the nature of these small margins and the way you lose so many points in a row if your focus is slightly off or your body is a bit tense from the pressure of having to play vs. adults. I have played vs. many around 10 years of age and they...
  19. Which Fundamentals to prioritize?

    There should be only one way to measure your level and thats your ability to beat other players. If you feel that there are areas of your game that made you lose games, you just have to trust the process and work on those areas. Dont measure them separately, I say. If you are motivated to beat...
