  5. 2010: a Great Year for TT. Your comments?

    Hi Guys, I agree with Dan. It would be nice to see more variation in the top players and not always chinese, I love Timo Boll and am pleased he will be number 1. Some of the best moments of this year were obviously the world team championships in Russia where there were some amazing matches ...

  11. Introduce yourself to the forum! :)

    Thanks, yes I know Dan really well I trained with him in Bristol Academy for 3 years and also lived with him for 2 years :)
  12. Tenergy

    Hi Atomichaos, Like dan said another layer of free chack should do the trick. Also with time the tenergy will gradually change the feel on the bat and have more feeling. I find tenergy 05 to be at its best after about 2 weeks on the bat.
  13. Tibhar Genius

    Hi, I think tibhar genius would be a sensible step up from g3, it will be a little bit faster but not too much. You will get a similar amount of control with genius. However it is quite a soft rubber like you said,I would stick to the normal genius and im sure it will be good for you :)
  14. Tenergy 05 or Neo hurricane 3?

    I think tenergy 05 is the best choice, its fast but it wont be over the top. A lot of people use tenergy 05 with a timo boll spirit its so popular ! I think it depends how you play like kruno said, if you want a softer feel go for 05 fx :)
  15. Glue

    The best glue to use would be a table tennis specific glue, I would recommend butterfly free chack

  17. How to receive a very heavy backspin serve

    Dan is right, the best thing to do is try to look for the longer serve and make a topspin, if you are struggling to lift the backspin then try to use your knees in the shots more and accelerate through the ball with your topspin. If it is a short backspin serve you basically have two options, a...
  18. Where should your balance be when playing?

    hi mezmer, the best way is to keep an even balance between both your legs. Then when playing a forehand you should try to transfer your weight more onto your front foot, if you find this is slowing you down as you said then try to use your waist to get more power and still maintain balance and...
  19. When is Dan Ives going to get back to playing table tennis?

    I know Dan well and his standard before his injury was definately good enough to be well inside the top 50 :) Just a shame he cant be playing now.
