  1. All Club Level Players need to know the stuff in this video

    I think the video is good. HMH is putting original content I’ve not seen anything like it. And I’m sure he is giving good coaching advice. in this video it doesn’t really matter what exact level is the Mexican guy. Just matters to see how with a simple tactic he’s totally shut down and is as...

    Definitely the setting of the matches. because he's been losing many players in competitions that he beats 90%+ of the time in practice matches. its not a skill issue here. I can see in his body language, facial expression, breath etc... that he's losing to pressure. I think he always need...
  3. All Club Level Players need to know the stuff in this video

    its a great video. Im only surprised that the level seems to be so low in Mexico (at least 20 years ago) Here in Japan USATT2300 equivalent probably wouldn't even get you an entry in the (Junior ?) national champs or even the French championships He was totally shut down with your serve to...
  4. Comprehensive List of 3rd ball attack strategies

    one tactic that is quite effective and that i seldom see used against me, is to stand to serve opposite to the opponent (if he's in the middle of the table then i'll be in the middle)... then i serve straight to him a fast serve aiming for his elbow where he should be hesitating between playing...

    i know... its really disheartening to see him perform so badly everytime... so I bought online teaching videos from Enzo Angles (French pro player performing in Major League Table Tennis in US) who were specifically about mental training [around 2 hours of video]. included in the package were...

  8. Comprehensive List of 3rd ball attack strategies

    so many !!! but to sum up briefly... short no spin serve >>> weak 3rd ball push >>> strong 3rd ball or kill long serve >> if opponent loops get ready for block or counter topspin >> if opponent pushes long get ready to loop / drive . must have a knowledge of preferred play from opponent and...

    Btw I didn’t check until today but the coach of Kinoshita Nakazawa Rui is actually Chinese. Something quite obvious when you hear him speaking Japanese. His looks were more Chinese than Japanese but until now because of his name I assumed he was Japanese Apparently he’s retiring from his...

    I think there was a good atmosphere in the Mallets as well. although of course Hashimoto / Sato and Odo/Yokoi have a more special relationship. The win is deserved for KIHARA. I was rooting actually for ODO because i think she's a rising star and really play a more spectacular game, but i like...

    yes i wasn't expecting this, and ODO seemed comfortably ahead 2-1 but then from G4 KIHARA took more risks in FH pivoting often, the match was more balanced and i think ODO succumbed to the pressure

    Hachioji is a bit far from Central Tokyo, too bad... maybe one day if there is an opportunity to go there the day before a tournament in that area for example

    Today was the annual qualifying tournament to represent my "district" of Tokyo in the 50+ category. (There are 23 ku and 39 shi, making a total of 62 "districts." What is administratively called Tokyo is more like Greater Paris, not just Paris proper.) After the qualifiers, there is an...

    Well I would discard them …. Or if not you can recycle them into art
  19. What kind of rubbers are long lasting and are controlable?

    Dignics05 and 80 last more than any other backside rubber I’ve ever had . Like 30% longer I’d say. So it justifies the price difference because the quality is better too
