Everyone in the club is using this ball. And I don't want to be special. I will just try it more to figure out how to play with it better. It appears that for these balls, you need to have better timing and faster accelerating. Adapting to these balls will actually help me time better and...

Recently I play with a hard 3 star Joola training ball. The ball feels very hard. It plays so differently from a 3 star Nittaku or DHS ball. It is hard to spin and the trajectory is quite different (flat and dropping quickly?). I tried adjusting my technique for it. But it is still very hard...

How about the durability of O8 China?

Psychological/mental training is well underestimated for profession table tennis. No sure whether any team has this kind of training beside CNT?

D05 might be slightly slower than D80, but it is definitely still among the fastest rubber for strong strikes. I think most people don't agree with you point just because you need to compare it with D80 to say it is slow.

Sound transports slower than light. But is it really that slow?

The pips is short, not the rubber top.

WCQ's style depends a lot on speed and first attacks. Not sure whether he can keep up with the speed in 3 years. Once he loses in a couple of tournaments (I think it is going to happen in these three years), whether he can hold his head up and keep the confidence is also a problem.

Sore played well the first two games and kind of gave up after that.

Harimoto alc and Harimoto super alc are basically two totally different blades to me. Hsalc feels much more solid at almost everything.

He popped up a lot of receives and forced to move backward. France does get a lot of promising young players.

You can always argue that he can't get to the current level without a good coach. And the one more step argument is that he would somehow need a better coach because he lost. And to improve, a perspective from another (better?) coach won't hurt.

What Coton needs is a top coach to analyze and refine his game a little bit. Maybe improve his push skill? He has amazing backhand and footwork. He could be a top 20 top player very soon.

Don't count Uda out yet. I think he got a good boosting from Coach Qiu, and no one knows what Uda can do now. He could beat LYJ and Truls, then he at least has some chances against LSD.

Uda is on a break

Saw you default again for the over 45 RR. Should have won this one after beating Wole.

Congratulations on the second place. I think you had high chance of winning the tournament. Good luck with the tournaments today.

many of these pros' serves are questionable

My Hsalc is about 91g, and weights 187g with D09C/D05. I put D09C on the forehand and D05 on the backhand. I really like the setup. It is almost like a better backhand W968 (with slightly less springy effect on the forehand, but with as much support and power). It is much less numb for small...

no forehand Harimoto is no good
