He trained under the same Coach as ZJK I believe and it was well known that Xiao Zhan has a very strict traning regiment, also leading to ZJKs injuries. I hope it's not the case with WCQ. Although Anton playes well but WCQ also just played so many balls over the table or in the net. It feels...

He was and is still no.1 due to ranking but he didn't win grand slam and the olympics. So there should be still sth. for him to fight for but maybe it's really psychologically. He always looks very tired and can't imagine the pressure on him with FZD and ML absent.

Well seems Team China is as vulnerable as it never has been for a long time. I don't know what suddenly happened to WCQ. But high likely we will have another none Chinese winner

Im also still interested and I wonder how it compares to more popular inner ALC like the Butterfly Innerforce or cheaper DHS alternatives like the 301 or Long 5

I've been told around 6 month is the rule of thumb but it depends also on the rubber itself. I know that Vega Pro is very durable, so it can easily last for a year or more. In the end you have to feel, if the rubber is to slippery or doesn't grip the ball as good as before anymore. Then you have...

Well, for the men I agree, the Chinese rooster is looking weak without Ma long and FZD. WCQ and LSD are too young yet. LGY needs to be benched and LJK being the only stable one but not undisputeable or unbeatable. For women, three of the top players didn't even participate in Montepellier. SYS...

Hi, I'm having trouble to consistently looping either with forehand or backhand. So I got three questions. 1. Sometime I can feel the friction of the ball on my blade, so that I can loop but a lot of times the ball just leaves the blade too fast and goes into the net. It happens with either...

Sorry, that I have to ask again. I just had time to watch the first video with the basketball. It somehow makes sense. But what he demonstrates at the end, isn't it against what you wrote before? If it's long you go with your blade against the direction of the spin and if it is short, you go...

One question, since there is topspin in the ball, do you brush with a closed blade angle? It's a bit difficult for me to imagine because if it is backspin, it feels more natural but for top spin im unsure regarding blade angle and brushing at the same time

It's more the slower ones but with side or topspin. With fast topspins, I can somehow just drive them quite well, taken into account that I can react to them. With tomahawk serves it is a bit more difficult, because they go to the side. But with slower ones that are still half long or long, I...

Maybe I have to add that I'm left handed. But as far as I understand just brush the ball with a shorter stroke. I will try it

Thanks for the tip, perhaps do you have a video showing it. It's a bit hard to imagine for me

Hi, I have trouble returning half long and long side topspin balls. In theory I know that I have to brush over the ball but if i do it it still flies over the table. Maybe because my arc is not steep enough. If I try tonjust touch it, it also flies over the table. At least the ball doesnt fly...

Hi, since I havent read about this topic here, I thought I will open a thread. Both Chinese players are going to play for Post SV Mühlhausen the upcoming season. Although only in the Champions League I believe. I find it quite interesting that two top Chinese Players are going to play for a...

Well Annette Kaufmann has always been undervalued in her ranking points. This olympic just showed it but unfortunately the other two team members are not that strong, so I don't think they can win bronze tomorrow.

You got a source for that?

Interesting to know whats happening behind the curtain of the Chinese women team. No one from the Chinese side looked happy that Chen Meng won. Maybe is it because of the rumours that Chen Meng only got her starting place over WMY because of family connections?

It surely is very competitive but I don't think that there are currently a lot CNT players that can play on the top level. Most second tier CNT members can't consistently win over top international challengers. Further with Ma Long gone, they need someone to fill the gap.

Wasn't Zhang Jike also trained by Xiao Zhan? He got injured because his style was also very physically demanding. Maybe there is a parallel...

Any reason only these two blades? Can recommend the dhs 301 series
