It does looks used and I mean it in a good way. I would say that when to change rubbers is a personal preference. You can try out one approach though - When my rubbers get a bit worn out and have an itch to try a new one, I don't retire the old ones completely but I use it for my practice...

With new generation rubbers, I start noticing the worn out patch very soon. I tried Andro Rasanter C48 and within 2 months I can see that a discoloration where the ball contacts the rubber when I hit my topspins. Not to say that C48 has any issues but in general hybrid rubbers topsheet wears out...

You will need one 5 ply all wood , one 7 ply all wood, one out Carbon Tamca 5000, one outer ALC, one inner ALC, one outer ZLC, one inner ZLC, then there are super ALCs and ZLCs. Then Aramid-carbon, Dyneema carbon, Hexa carbon offerings which you can try with D09. However, from my personal...

If you recorded your match then it would be easier, but if not then you can just replay your match mentally and write down the most frustrating things/situations in the matches? Categorize this on - 1. When you are doing serves - what happened? 2. When you receive serve what happened? 3...

Thanks Mr. Miyaki.

How about trying the rule of elimination ;) - "When you have eliminated the impossible,whatever remains however improbable must be the truth." So try with what you think cannot be used in Forehand topspin.

Ok, here is another perspective. In Liam's Masterclass on TTD Academy he specifically mentions that he has his blade angle more open. :). And that is the whole point, if we (I mean all of us) keep looking at different tutorials then we will never find a foundation to build our stroke mechanics.

Do you watch too many backhand tutorials on YouTube or try to copy any Fan Zhendongs, Darkos, Hugos etc. of the different realm? I think it comes with the baggage that when we desperately want to improve we watch more and more just so that we get out of our misery as soon as possible. It seems...

Butterfly Blade - preferably outer ALC, but can play with inner ALC as well. I choose butterfly as it seems to be most balanced (I am not 100% comfortable with head heavy blades) after putting rubbers and Butterfly is easier to sell/trade in case you want to. Rubbers - I try to play with medium...

Very true! The one thing which my late coach said to me is that you cannot allow more than one person to add salt/spice to the dish - meaning don't learn from multiple sources simultaneously. I think that was one of the profound sayings from him.

Hi Dan, Thanks for the amazing video. Just being in the presence of such high achievers is an experience which cannot be put into words. You are blessed my friend. Thanks, KM1976

There are lots of channels on YouTube and Coach EmratThich's channel is one of them. When I was too much behind the secret sauce, I thought that somewhere I will stumble upon some gems which will make me a table tennis star. Later, with age, grey hairs and hopefully some wisdom, I realized that...

I too liked C1 on Forehand.

Absolutely correct. And the way a Pro understands the equipment feel is far far better than how a hobby player like me judges it. It comes to practicing with the same setup again and again for countless number of hours. For me, I really cannot point out the differences which are way too...

Yes, it can be diluted. However, you need to be careful on the quantity of water which you are putting into it. I have done this in the past when my Revolution No. 3 glue started to thicken up too much. Also, check for the decoloration of the glue before diluting. I had another bottle which was...

I have tried Vega X on both Forehand and Backhand. It is a quite a good rubber, and at this price point it would be a good choice. It lasted close to 4 months for me with 8-10 hours/week of training/games. For me, I like to feel the rubber bite on the ball and personally, I felt that there are...

Happy New Year. These blades are still available.

I started improving faster when I stopped learning from everyone.

If you want the feel, then Donic Waldner Senso Carbon is a very good and relatively cheap option. There are plenty of other blades which can be considered. I recommend this one, as I have used Donic Waldner Senso Ultra Carbon as my main blade for close to 9 years.

Bump.
