  1. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    At 24:45 of the vid I posted in last post above... right at a crucial moment in the match with score 2 games each, Rich does what looks like a strong topspin from a little off the table... opponent thinks ball is loaded with spin, but it is very light... opponent tries to counter the ball and it...
  2. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    Another vid of Rich "junking it up" with hiz inverted rubbers... Watch how many times in the match his opponent looks at his rubber after a miss to wonder what happened or if it was possible...
  3. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    I am happy you want to have others show evidence to support the assertions - it is the correct way IMO. I did post that evidence in the form of a vid of R. Dewitt vs that 2400 player... Richard numerous times played a stroke that a reasonable person would read as a topspin drive... or something...
  4. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    Maybe I should have also discussed WHY I can play SP now... My former BH way to strike was more bat closed swing upwards more... Now, my BH swing plane is more open bat swing forward... which is exactly what is needed for a BH hit or loop drive. That makes life much easier to play SP.
  5. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    VTT... Even with current T4 ITTF approved LP one can make a topspin drive vs an underspin ball. It is more easily done with a fast, stiff blade like BTY series Tamka 5000 blades and an OX LP, like Grass D-Techs. All that is needed is to strike ball at top of bounce with a very open bat face...

    This is a good post causing people to examine their tools to use to develop the opening or response and win the point.

    Ban the Damned LPs !!! Drats, LP hit got me again !! FYI, that R. Dewit dude with 2X inverted does those weird no spin underspin shots too. maybe we can ban him too. Wait a minute, @UpSideDownCarl will tell you there has been 5x efforts per year the last several decades to do exactly that !
  8. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    Short articulation about me and Short Pips as a lifelong 2x inverted offensive player. When I got my start in Korea for TT, after year one I slapped on sum cheap Chinese pips on BH and gave it a go at the club in free play... not even 5 minutes expired before I ripped those SP off my BH and...

    Insane event. Great props to all who worked to get the finished vid done. Class.
  10. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    Blahness, I bet you $500 USD that 2x inverted wierd stroking 60 yr old not so thin R. Dewitt will defeat you so badly that it may make you regret ever deciding to pursue TT as a sport. He will do it with 2x inverted all the way.
  11. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    With your increased improvement/willingness to open with BH, we REALLY would wipe out those doubles dudes in Pleasanton TTC.
  12. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Yes, positioning, stance, how you set leverage, the biomechanics of how you strike, WHERE in hte strike zone you strike and hand grip are uber important. The BH hit is using lower arm and it is like opening a door to the outside... imagine you are striking a soccer ball with that door... you...
  13. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    Nobody inquired the result of league played with LP in dash of car made slippery by sun exposure... Is that as bad as tuning the dogcrap outta difficult for ordinary Jope to obtain H3 top secret national version ?? Let's hear about it !!

  15. Korea is doing something right

    Tony, you should have seen it when the newer K-League came out with the new studio stadium for TT... so damn good looking and sponsored to the hilt to make it happen. Koreans like watching their league on TT. many interesting TT guest commentators on TV with this too.
  16. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    Yes, I would agree that those who want it will figure it out somehow... but with 38 ball, it was more risky to flip serves as there was more spin and bats are pretty spin reactive... but techniques got better over time, so there is that supporting the ones who figure it out.

    Marxists HATE it when faced with facts. Bring the smoke, even if fact do not matter to the complainers.
  18. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    JJ, I hear you... but overall in USA from where I see TT, there are more training times going on, more teaching, more access to info, and the ABS ball makes it so damn easy to hit or spin vs spin and pace... so everyone trying to get better is getting better... better than they ever got before...
  19. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    I am going to leave a spare LP bat on the car dash for a couple hours before league tonite, play on table 2, and see who struggles vs my LP blocks tonite. Is that just as bad as tuning the heck outta H3 and use a $1000 USD 968 blade? If not, then why?
  20. Backhand topspin tutorials are useless

    Some people can do better BH looping before they develop FH, maybe because the ball is closer to their eyes and they see it better.
