  1. Video Footage Safe Thread

    Heh... Absolutely. In the vid below player in gray is rated just over 2100.
  2. Ma Long - footwork analysis

    You are not alone. I have watched 100's of TT videos with various accents. I have found none of them objectionable... except for the robot voices. I actually enjoy hearing the various accents. SURF, If you speak slowly and clearly it should not be a problem. You should post a 20 second video...
  3. 50+mm balls

    In Japan there is "Large Ball" that uses a 44 mm ball and inverted rubber is not allowed. Paddles must be pips out (I believe). It's rather popular there.
  4. Academic style TT education

    Care to explain in the video where we are advised to take a step/bounce back just before the opponent strikes the ball? Seems too ambiguous to me. Each and every time, regardless of context? I don't see the pros doing this.
  5. Video Footage Safe Thread

    Like doctors a good coach is hard to find and can make all the difference.
  6. Ball point brain washing

    He's just jealous that he's got no ballz.
  7. What is the best table tennis brand ?

    Haha... I started at the top of the thread and read a post where someone wrote, "The others are always complayning about their rubbers durability, and I have my Tenergy 05 rubbers since August 2014 kkkk and they're in a good state..." Definitely surprised/shocked me until I noted the posting date.

    Thanks for reporting back! Glad to hear you like the shoe. I was surprised to read you had almost an inch of clearance up front. Hopefully those size 14's arrive! I was very pleasantly surprised to find how much better the Gel Tactic was for me over the Rockets. Also, I think you'll find they...

    The Gel Rocket 14 was fine for me as well. Plenty of room. You should be able to return them if they don't fit, provided you don't use them. So did you purchase the shoes? If so, please post here and let us know whether they fit and if you use them what you think.

    Interesting. They were in stock not too long ago, but I see almost every size is out of stock at the moment. I had tried the Gel-Tactic 2 in size 14 and it was too small. The 15 fit after a bit of a break in period. I always wore a size 14 with the Gel Rockets (and every other shoe). However for...

    I used to use Asics Gel Rockets in size US 14. I recently switched to ASICS Gel-Tactic 2 (US size 15). I find it has better cushioning/support and traction. However, if your feet are wide, the Gel Tactic might be too tight.
  12. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    What's the name of that club?
  13. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Thanks... can you tell me the name of the club/center? Was it ping-pong ba or the Sugamo sports center?
  14. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Which club or community center was this at? (Yeah, I realize this was back in August.)
  15. colored rubbers

    And celluloid, no doubt. 😀
  16. Getting back into TT properly with the DHS Neo Hurricane 3

    So in plain English, what does that mean? Does it mean one starts with the leg and then the waist turns, or is it simultaneous, or does the waist (move first) lead the feet?
  17. Getting back into TT properly with the DHS Neo Hurricane 3

    I think this video of Li Sun bolsters your main point above:
  18. SARS-CoVID-2/ CoVID-19/ CoronaVirus: Information Only from Well Informed Members

    Thanks Baal. Really helpful (including the Annals of Internal Medicine article). Just from my own observations it didn't make sense. I was almost ready to go back to playing table tennis. *sigh*
  19. SARS-CoVID-2/ CoVID-19/ CoronaVirus: Information Only from Well Informed Members

    Is this legit????? https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/08/asymptomatic-coronavirus-patients-arent-spreading-new-infections-who-says.html?__source=twitter%7Cmain
  20. SARS-CoVID-2/ CoVID-19/ CoronaVirus: Information Only from Well Informed Members

    Thx for your response Baal. I was wondering whether it could be refined. And I am pretty sure I would not want to experience a 104 degree fever! If the odds were lower, as it is for the side effects of most influenza vaccines (where I've bothered to read the side effects) it wouldn't bother me...
