I’m still…catching my breath… after reading this…

This is a rare instance where having so many sidespin serve variations can hurt if you’re not well accustomed to the spin being returned back from passive imperfect returns and the 3rd ball attack pattern she needed to employ. It seemed to have affected her ability to confidently attack long...

I found Korbel’s 158x152 dimension gives enough buffer to use over regular 157x150 head size. In tournaments, if umpires check for overhang, use 12mm wide edgetape to cover.

I do it to protect my blade from mild to moderate table edge hits. My thinking is I would much rather a damaged rubber that can be easily replaced rather than permanent damage to a blade. It’s also less of a hassle to peel off the rubber from the blade.

Something seems abit off, insincere about Heming… filming in his full Aussie uniform, constant name dropping, PR spinning like WTT but script further optimised by the highest alpha GigaChad at his Pick Up Artist forum I mean The Attractive Man. Or am I just jealous? Maybe his hard sell PUA...

And yes the quality you are facing should be a big determining factor in your selection. Let’s say you are in a blocking drill - against really strong loopers the ball noticeably drops down earlier than you anticipate and kicks down (boosted H3) or up (Jap type). Your racket also vibrates like...

Yep totally agree, hence my notes stating I needed to focus on perfect friction and ball impact so the unique attributes of the rubber could shine. Alas, 2 or 3 amazing shots followed with twice the number of unforced errors isn’t fun for me. D09c suits me much better

What you are referring to is probably due to our slight differences in technique when we attempt our counterloop, but in general, Vega Europe can absorb(wrap?) the ball and create mechanical spin inside(within?) the softer sponge better than the harder sponged T05H. How I explain it is the...

Stretching or adding extra tension to something over and above its factory state will logically always reduce its lifespan potential

I got notes on each of these that I would like to share. Dignics 05 has a high and short trajectory, it’s good for short and snappier FH techniques. With longer follow thru the quality becomes quite weak. D09c I need to aim as if I am pressing down the ball into the bottom of the net, and...

What no further investigation into what happened with the carpentry company? I feel like I’m missing out on a major plot twist… 🍿

I had a different experience at CCY table tennis academy, kind of my fault as I went solo without any notice. I was greeted by one of the apprentices as they were having lunch and they said public not allowed with a cross signal with his hand to be sure. Though as I pre-hydrated ALOT thinking I...

Yes a good effect if your strokes incorporate strong impact with sponge (and then adding the topsheet friction at the last moments). Less so if your attacking strokes are based on mainly topsheet friction (and using catapult from sponge support throughout).

Shows how much leverage he had at that point in time. 1. Forms one half of the best XD pairing. The same event CNT “lost face” at Tokyo OG. Also fan base with these two are bat shit crazy… 2. ML giving that speech at Worlds..rumours FZD could follow in the near future, LGY/LJK not trusted...

As a EJ forum I’m disappointed no one has stated the obvious…. There’s hardly any new pro combos we must copy that will raise rating by 1000 points in a week (once Seamoon dome has flattened and can be glued with DHS #15)

Noob vs noob would have been better as the overall spin and speed in their rallies would be lower. LP would be easier to play against. The spin reversal by advanced player even stable hitting into Noob B (LP) would be very off putting for Noob A (double inverted) to return as they would...

I hope the size of WCQ head isn’t making up for the collective lack of brains of his fandom. Why would the company keep WCQ on if his fans boycott? Though respect to his smart thinking by sharing his positive thoughts of the event, to be fair wouldn’t expect anything less coming from that...

Don’t discount Glayzer 09c, it fits perfectly for me on Super Vis on BH & FH. It helps that it is specifically targeted at the intermediate level and in Asia retails at a lower price point vs G1. In 2.1 it should be a similar weight if not lower weight to 2.0 ESN. If you end up going this...

Haha I sense a collaboration incoming that can rival that of Minions x Butterfly, Yonex x Nittaku… Bet365 x Donic “Bring the legendary mentality of a Grand Slam winner with you onto the court… place large irresponsible bets from the comfort of your racket while playing”

It’s a big bet by these companies (pun intended) Donic from around late 2000’s to early 2010’s signed Li Ping, Yan An and Zhou Yu as they were breaking through into the CNT setup, giving each their own signature blade. Very similar scenario to when Joola signed up ZQH and Tibhar to Lebrun’s and...
