    What if the beginner/intermediate player is a chopper? This handbook could be expanded.
  2. alternatives to tenergy 05

    The other rubbers will not stay playable for 14 months.
  3. French Pro A 2024-2025

    Maybe change the title of this thread from French Pro A, which actually sounds interesting, to More Arguing About Liam Pitchford, which does not?

  5. After rozena

    T19 is a good next step from Rozena
  6. I want to try mid pips on BH. Can anyone give me some advice?

    You can play DMS Flashback basically just like short pips. It attacks quite well. If you lived in the US I would send you a sealed sheet for the postage. I can't say how well Flashback defends because I have zero defensive skills. This is also why I gave up on MP and went back to Moristo.
  7. Is short pips answer to receiving serves?

    In my experience after quite a short time he would play the same level with SP. Like you say, some things would improve and others weaken due to the material. But he would soon learn that anticipation, tactics, mental strength, movement, fitness, touch, experience, and maybe some other...
  8. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Opposing screaming fangirls on opposite sides of the aisle for more drama. WTT can recruit extras to pretend to be screaming fangirls of the non-Chinese players, if one ever appears in a final.
  9. Is short pips answer to receiving serves?

    I note your dignics 09c BH rubber. If you struggle to receive serve successfully with bh, allow me to respectfully suggest that a $90 rubber may not be what you need at the present moment. I use SP backhand myself, so not the best to advise. But maybe something in the...
  10. Is short pips answer to receiving serves?

    No, you will just lose to different serves with short pips. There is not a tutorial. Either a coach as mentioned. Or if coach is not available/affordable, find a training partner who is willing to practice his serve. And you practice receive. Please buy a box of 100 balls or smth for this...
  11. What are some good clubs/training camps

    Some grumpy old guys don't like to lose to the kids, this can be problem. If you are grumpy old man, stay away from B75, not the camp for you.
  12. What are some good clubs/training camps

    idk nothing about German camps. B75 has 96 players a week, grouped by levels. True they mix ages and countries. But if there is a little kid in a high group, better believe kid can play. The higher levels thing is a common belief. Everyone wants to train only with someone better. Then pay...
  13. What are some good clubs/training camps

    This camp in Denmark is cool. 10 - 28 July B75
  14. How do I improve my backhand? (closed)

    It is also a waste of time to ask on the internet with video, or watch YT videos. Maybe the former tennis player thing is part of it. Not trying to depress you, but at some point your best path forward may be to accept that you simply don't have very good feeling on the backhand. The answer...

    yeah, all those expensive fzd blades peeps just bought, guess the used market will be busy
  16. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    CM is (was?) the best at self-coaching in big matches. No moment too big for her. This is why she beat SYS twice in Olympics. Before SYS was even a thing, CM was the tour teammate-killer. No coach, no problem.
  17. 1.Bundesliga Women Germany 2024/2025

    Thanks for posting this! I follow Pro A women but before now no clue about 1 bundesliga. I will root for the Dachau club, since they have my new favorite player. 1.3 Itagaki, Koharu TTR 2305
