  1. Even Yet Still More Table Tennis Tips

    I didn't make it up. I've read it in a few places, possibly the first time was here.... https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/new-rules-for-table-tennis.21991/ I didn't see your question. But you've been a member since 2014 right? Belated welcome. Are you really comparing yourself to...
  2. Even Yet Still More Table Tennis Tips

    In what way is it stupid? Because my opinion differs from yours? Maybe you are stupid? Consider that for a while ... I appreciate his books too, I have one of them. My point is that someone with his obviously knowledge chooses not to participate or contribute in here until it's time to sell...
  3. Even Yet Still More Table Tennis Tips

    Well your only posts seem to be efforts to peddle your books so to answer your question the sarcasm is because I don't really have much respect for that.
  4. Upgrade of my setup - Rubbers and Blade

    I would say to just read this and go to that thread to ask any questions. https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/equipment-guide-best-first-intermediate-table-tennis-rubbers-in-2026-a-comprehensive-list-analysis.38800/ Victors recommendations aren't the only options of course but it...

  6. ITTF WTTTC Finals London 2026, 4/28-5/10

    Sneaky European tactics. It's actually not slippery when you wear the corresponding Tibhar shoes 😉 Viva la France! 👊
  7. After changing the setup

    You've gone from R7 soft and Rasanter R42 (very soft rubbers) to G1 and C1 which have a relatively hard topsheet. My guess is you're not creating enough impact and the ball is slipping. Which of the rubbers do you use for FH and BH?
  8. Psychology in moments of frustration in Table Tennis

    I don't think I've ever lost from 2-0 up but I've lost plenty of matches that I afterwards think I should have won! The key to self forgiveness for me is to understand why I lost. Thinking I should have won always does a disservice to me and to the other player. Realising the mistakes I made...
  9. Outdoor table expectations

    Metal top instead of wood but the 700 is thick enough metal that it should mimic a 22mm wooden top so that will be plenty good enough. You'll be able to play great TT on it, no doubt. It's finished with a matt effect finish I believe so the ball adhesion, spin effect on the bounce, although...
  10. Is 10 weeks with a new blade long enough to start getting adjusted to it?

    What do you mean 'you upgraded'? Why do you call it an upgrade? If it's because you moved to a Butterfly product or because you spent $150 on a new blade I think that's the crux of the issue. There is no upgrade unless the new equipment definitely suits your game, or facilitates the development...
  11. Fake DHS W968?

    Ah man, only saw this now, funny 😂
  12. CAN YOU WIN AGAINST PIPS PLAYERS?

    Man I was so delighted to see him lose that final game to Maxim. That pips player would be my nightmare, just standing there returning everything, moving me around the place until I'd make a mistake. I've beaten a few pips players but not anyone as good as him, at a certain point it's not about...
  13. ovtcharov innerforce alc splintering?

    I don't know if they splinter but I don't think there is any way you can notice a difference in feel from a thin layer of sealant. Besides, if you seal it before first use you will not notice any difference 😉
  14. Hello

    Starting at college age and taking 10 years of serious training... Depends on your fitness level and the amount of talent really. No talent: ~1500 TTR Talent: possibly 1850+
  15. Run-in between Moregard and SBTF?

    Hi Who are the team changes you are referring to?
  16. Help! Rubber recommendations please...

    But how much is an MX-P rubber that dies within 6 weeks V say a Dignics 05 that will last you at least 6 months and probably longer? I know my D80 doesn't perform to the level it did when it was brand new but it's D80 and I'm at most a TTR 1550 player so even D80 at 75% of its capability is...
  17. Help! Rubber recommendations please...

    MX-P dies quickly, not worth buying unless you have loads of money to replace it often. Is there any reason you haven't listed any Butterfly rubbers? For speed, spin, dynamics and longevity it is hard to look past Dignics. I have a sheet of D80 on my BH that is still usable after a year! I will...
  18. Dignics 64 vs Dignics 05

    Just read through this thread. I'd be very interested to know your level? In reading it seems that you find D05 too slow on a FZD blade. Seriously, who thinks D05 is too slow? And then you are wondering about looping V backspin with these mega expensive and high performance rubbers....??? If you...
  19. What is the closest ESN equivalent to Spring Sponge nowadays?

    Interesting I would have classed the regular Glayzer above Rakza 7 for sure. I might be wrong but I have the feeling that you are overestimating the R7 or underestimating the Glayzer here? Be interested in anyone's direct comparison here, it's too long since I played R7 so I can't remember...
