  1. New all-wood blade recommendations wanted

    Without detracting from other brands, check out Andro, have been supplying very good rackets from 5-ply wood for years. The TP_Linga All really belongs to the top of playable woods with an outstanding feel and very good grip. A little above your budget
  2. Are French people paying attention to the French team at WTTTC 2024?

    😂Lol, in Belgium we are then also halfway to the Netherlands, ahead of ⅓ in France, ahead of ⅓ in Germany and all the clubs in Luxembourg. I don't know how many there are in total but I do know that there are 165 clubs in Belgium alone that you can reach within a 1.5-hour drive.🤣
  3. Are French people paying attention to the French team at WTTTC 2024?

    Is not only a problem in France of course but a general problem in many countries worldwide. It is always a laugh when people talk about ping pong and not the sport of table tennis.
  4. Are French people paying attention to the French team at WTTTC 2024?

    As far as I know, table tennis is quite popular in France thanks mainly to Jacques Secretin and to lesser degrees Vincent Purkart who both had some significance in the French and international table tennis world in the 70s, 80s & 90s. Secretin is legendary for his medals won and along with...
  5. ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals Busan 2024

    Mmmm, great player Felix but a slightly too fast traveling star in the table tennis circus, which is of course to his own credit. Should anyone doubt his abilities, he obviously has them in abundance with first and foremost an incredible responsiveness (innate or thanks to his pen holder grip)...

    Pffff, Felix vs Fan is going to be the most important match tomorrow.
  7. ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals Busan 2024

    Technical shortcomings need not always be a problem. Look at Dima, one of the best players in the world but cannot push forehand and because of this did just lose the last point against Lin. Darko Jorgic, has a "dead arm." His non-playing arm looks like a lifeless object. It never accompanies...
  8. ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals Busan 2024

    I think rather Lin Yun-Ju has these capabilities than Harimoto to be honest.
  9. ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals Busan 2024

    Life has taught me that there are no certainties, and certainly not in table tennis.😀
  10. ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals Busan 2024

    Mark my words, never. Not because he is not good but Harimoto has his limits and they will never become so good that he can overcome Wang especially since Wang is also a left-handed player.
  11. ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals Busan 2024

    Indeed, Harimoto will never win from Wang again and will stick to 1 win. Rather, it will be one of his teammates who will be able to win from Wang CQ
  12. Would you like to see ELO ratings applied to pro players?

    I think the Andro list is only for players from the German league.
  13. WTT Feeder Manchester Feb 2024

    I am big fan of Darts, don't play it myself or only rarely for fun but I always watch all major championships live on television. Darts is so immensely popular thanks to live TV broadcasts, gambling sites and, of course, excessive alcohol consumption by spectators. However, I can't imagine that...
  14. Would you like to see ELO ratings applied to pro players?

    Were they to use an ELO ranking across the world, you would come to strange observations. In Belgium, there are 7 players with more than 2800 ELO points and even two players with more than 2900. Yet you never see them in the ITTF circus. Belgium_ELO-ranking

  16. 38mm speed glue era table tennis

    Now we know where the illegal services come from at the Lebrun's...🤣
  17. WTT Star Contender Goa 2024

    Lol, but no cards for unregulated services. It should not get any crazier. I haven't seen many Goa matches yet but at the European top 16, there were players (and it's always the same ones) whose +75% of their services were illegal. No umpire dared to give a reprimand or card for this. Pure...
