  4. Timo Boll talks about his equipment

    I saw that white packaged tenergy once in Japan, I know that "national rubber" is not a popular term...but seriously I think that is exactly what it is. It came in the same mail as a ton of "normal" tenergies (no, it is not mine), but there was only one white packaged.

    I am from Mazowsze. In Poland there are 16 provinces and level of leagues depends on the province. There is super league. Lower are two 1st leagues (south and north) and (probably) sixteen 2,3,4,5 leagues. Although some provinces might not have lower leagues.
  8. New league season – what’s your goal?

    Had 4th place in 4th league and 2 best teams have chance to advance to 3rd league. Most of my team were kids below 15 years, so they probably improved a lot during summer break. Hoping for 3rd league after this season. Personally I would like to get at least 75% and stop changing blade in every...

  10. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    it was just few minutes, but yeah, pretty lucky. We trained only serve and receive, but he has definitelly the best serve I have ever encountered. Sometimes I couldn't even touch the ball and spin even on the fast serves was amazing. The ball was changing it course after the bounce on my half of...

    Had opportunity to hit a little with Ryusuke Sakamoto. Was able to return ~10% of his serves and he did with mine reverse pendelum whatever he wanted every single time. His fast serves were really fast, now every time I try to make fast serve I can only think how slow it really is.

    Had a nice game, while waiting for a movie in a shop/restaurant in Shibuya. Manager was really nice and let me try different blades. I played with him for around 15 minutes. The record speed was 175km/h...I think everyone can agree it was a mistake :D. Here is match with another customer (my...

    oh NextLevel, 1 day before I left to Japan I played with my friend that has long and short chops. He is staying close to table all the time blocking and coutnering. I have no chance against him, I took only 1 set from him in 2 hours. He has very unique style, he is playing only for hobby, but...
  15. Just came to Tokyo

    no, it was the best I could give today. The prove of that is that I had to use the reverse pendelum :D

    and how about that long reverse pendelum serve from the middle of the table to bh :D ? I am prouder of it than the short ones ^^ I was really surprised with those counter from close distance when I thought that I was hitting finishers. Blocking and countering from close distance was really a...
  17. Just came to Tokyo

    thanks for the nice words. I agree that if I didn't use reverse pendelum I could lose more sets, so I was using it when sets were close or when I was losing in points (it felt like cheating xD). My weakest point in the game is receive of long serves to bh and You are doing it a lot, so it is...
  18. Just came to Tokyo

    thanks for letting me know about this place :D Hope You will be able to mimic my reverse pendelum serve. Unfortunately I lost to that japanese player. He is a lot better, I was leading 7:3 in 1st game and lost 7:11. In last game it was 11:9 and on 10:9 I missed a serve. He is a lot better, but...
  19. Just came to Tokyo

    I will probably be helping in one of the clubs, but I had exams before a trip and was unable to play for 1 month, so before I go to club as a part time coach or something like that I wanted to feel the ball again. I also have a new blade that I got just 1 day before leaving my country. Wow...
