Oh so you haven’t actually used your robot for services, but you’re gonna lecture me about how I’ve been using it wrong? :cautious:

Of course it can, I'm traveling right now but I'll record one when I get back. I'm doing this out of good faith, more to show others, but you're clearly being dishonest here. You know how I know? Because I have an Amicus, and I use the middle ring or higher position for services. You can't use...

I've had some of the same issues, and I've been doing repeated self-videoing and corrections to improve them over the past 2 months. What I've found is that sometimes cause and effect is not what you might think it is. For example, I also found that I was hitting the ball too in front of my...

Man, the power of imprinting! The Newgy robots were the first ones I used and coveted many years ago, and to my brain Robopong is still synonymous with TT robots! Fixed it now.

Why don't you show a video of those services by the Amicus/Powerpong? I've had it for 2 years now, I'm probably far more aware of its limitations than you. Try doing a strong sideback spin ball, you'll see that it simply doesn't jump to the side the way you'd expect. Try a short, heavy topspin...

Kind figured, the metal rod just brushes right below the balls and don't do anything to stir them up Having used both considerably now, I think I can make a solid comparison. Also, I think my level of play should be right around the target audience of an advanced robot. IMO the service height...

Could this be Dima's last chance?

It's more about playing distance and recovery IMO. The modern game requires you to play closer to the table, where you just don't have the time to do the Frisbee throw AND have time to recover for the next shot. The issue with BH shots is that you end up with your hand way outside of your...

Oh I know I've got plenty of time to play better, but I'm running short on time to look better! Right now, the primary objective is to warm up in the club decked out in my CNT gear and have the 1200 guy next to me wondering "hey, did that dude play on the CNT?" 😂 I was talking to my former...

Thanks! I kinda figured it was for pre-programmed drills. It def would be useful for custom drills too, or decreasing the minimum drill length from 1 min to say 30 seconds. I'm practicing FHs right now, and at 60-70% frequency that's 54-63 FH shots in a minute! Even pros get tired after 40-50...

I’ve been working a lot on my technique lately and what I’ve found is that as one’s technique improves the difference between equipment lessens. For example, a lot of amateurs loop with a rather concave motion, trying to wrap the racket around the ball. If you do that you’d probably feel a...

I'm trying to change my stance as well, but I have a different issue. My legs are bent quite low, kind of like FZD, but I don't tend to bend at my lumbar spin, so my upper body stays upright. I'm improving progressively with my hip rotation and activation sequence, but each thing I add changes...

I've been using it for a few weeks now, really digging the more realistic speed/spin ratio of the Halo. They also just updated the app a few days ago, adding a couple new functions. I'm now able to clone my custom drills (go to manage, then there's an extra option to duplicate now). It also says...

I personally like it for the following reasons: 1) Very good at the short game, soft touch is super easy. With that said, with the appropriate rubbers it's not exactly difficult with the Viscaria either. 2) When you loop it hard and do it right, it creates a really satisfying catapult effect...

Has anyone tried Viscaria with H3 on the BH? My feelings for H3 on the BH has really turned a 180 since I initially used it. I've really come to appreciate the massive spin advantage. I might glue a sheet onto my FZD ALC and compare it since it's got D09c on the BH side. Both sides are red, but...

It's not mushy if you activate the blade, then it has a nice cracking sound and makes a beautiful arc with great catapult.

Cutting it pretty close there with Kaufmann 😳

I'd like to see @Gozo Aruna smashing that one you looped for a winner 😆

Hmm, IDK, but flights to China is pretty cheap right now. You can get them round trip from California for ~$1000. For people living in the bay area where many of these kids are from that's chump change. Sid Naresh delayed enrollment to UC Berkeley to pursue his TT career, which I'm sure...

Great job by Sid Naresh taking a set off of LSD yesterday! I'm actually surprised by how many players team USA sent to this tournament. I guess it's a nice experience for the youngsters, Jessica Reyes and Sid Naresh definitely got the best luck on the team, getting to play SYS and LSD...
