Paid sparring. Probably some players with level close to yours would be willing to train pushes for a bit of cash, much less than a coach. It's hard to find training buddies to practice such thing so you can use your superpower as an adult - money

Every table tennis point starts with serve-recieve, so training pushes is just a must to be confident and control the ball. As well as flicks, i think a lot of times pushes and flicks are undertrained in amateurs. You can't go to topspin rallies without playing close to the table, so everything...

But at the end of the day Tyce is on point here. Take the setup which gives you more fun and enjoyment. Because you would train more with equipment that you like and therefore improve much faster. Also when you have fun it's much easier to relax, and it's extremely important for good technique...

Visc is quite a strange blade, it's hard to control mostly because how it changes throw angle drastically on different levels of power. I hate blades with inconsistent throw angle and find them hard to control even when they are slow. I played with a lot of blades much faster than Visc but still...

It's not that one dimensional so i would try to explain my experience. There would be a lot of photos in this post. Firstly we should consider grip. My ring and middel fingers are tilted quite a lot, a bit like Lebrun but the contact points are still only my fingertips. I like this grip...

Rock climbing, mainly bouldering, but sometimes also sport climb. Also lift weights, do calisthenics and stretch regularly.

I play TT in shoes designed for basketball/voleyball(usually something low, point guard stuff) because i'm on a heavier side and never really had a problem with losing grip. a lot of times rubber compounds on such shoes are designed for variety of court types, indoor and outdoor, so if you just...

1-3. In my opinion it's much more about balance than weight. 185 head heavy would feel heavier than 195 but with neutral balance on hard strokes, i find it extremely important for my shallowish grip. 4. If you want to stay on the same blade i would try different rubber on bh and maybe glue it...

CNT 09c is still tacky and it does not cost that much more. Commercial 09c was a bit random in this regard, i had a lot of old 09c that also had zero tack, it's not a modern problem, it was like this from the start

I never tried JNT, but would probably do at some point, i'm also interested

CNT 09c has topsheet hardness close to boosted Hurricane compared to commercial version 09c. CNT 09c is my favourite backhand rubber, but commercial is also great. Semi-tackiness, low catapult on brush, but really strong catapult on hard hits, stable throw angle, it's just pure bliss. But for...

My experience with both of this rubbers was completelt different. I only played with nat/player edition BS H3 and all of them had harder topsheet than all my xupermans. I had only one Rxton 9 and it was such a bad rubber. My copy was trully hard like a brick. Just unplayable aithout booster. So...

TT is so much more fun to do than most other cardio activities, i have pure hatred for running and other stuff. But cardio is important for health, especially me as a person with chronic cardio conditions. I was able to do sports only when i turned 19 and doctor found the optimal medicamentation...

My main sport is rock climbing and I also lift weights and do calisthenics, so i'm physically stronger than most amateur players. But i play TT rearly, just as a cardio for endurance, so i don't have a lot of match experience. I can do a lot of things in training, but i don't find TT that much...

I would not advice to play with D05 on forehand, it's quite a strange rubber. 09c would be much safer option in my opinion. D05 on backhand is reasonable, but i would try it before buying, I know a lot of people who don't like it and you can be one of them. If you have an option just try...

I really like N301, but it doesn't play well with my favourite backhand rubber - 09c. It's extremely flexible blade, and 09c doen't have a lot of catapult on softer shots, so on blocks or brush topspins ball can easily just die if you make even small mistake. And my backhand is still the most...

I never tried Atletico Spin so can't say

No, and in the near time probably would not make one. I don't really play tt at summer a lot, I train for my climbing season and just test some equipment so i won't need to change it in the period that i actually play in tournaments. As you are from Russia I can say that i play on about 400...

So i bought it and was extremely surprised. It's one of the best outer carbon blades that I played with. I would much prefere it over Viscaria and it's not even close. I play penhold, so can't say about shakehand because feeling is very different. So if you play shakehand - take this with a...

I played D80 on FH a long time ago and it was great. Probably my favourite soft tensor for forehand. I like it much more than D05, though it is deffinetely a great rubber, i just can't play with it on neither of the wings. For BH i like to have variety in the stoke, with D05 you need to play...
