  2. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

    Perhaps my friend misinterpreted the bad rollout as Stiga doesn't make a Cybershap cpen. Saw him tonight. We hit some. Took pix of his racket. May buy a knockoff just for the novelty. 9% more sweet spot may help my game lol
  3. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

    Approximately how much does that run? My friend is curious and asking. My friend also said at the time he bought that "knockoff" Stiga didn't have a cybershape in PH yet. Don't know if he has the timing/facts correct, but that's what he said - he bought it from a mutual friend whom informed him.

    LOL at me and my friend, he didn't know! So maybe he has a legit Cybershape PH, will ask him to double-check and will send the YouTube link to him. Thank you Rico, SFF and Tony! And 6 sided JPen?!!?!?! WOW! I haven't been following TT lately - LOL at me! My friend said they now allow rubber...

    At first I didn't see what he did when he served down the line. Thought it nothing special. When i saw the slowmo, then I realized how he was serving. I vaguely recall chat either on this thread or the DTTCC thread about RPB serves. I haven't mastered my FH pendulum serves yet LOL however...

    I also train martial arts and walking, however, TT is what is the most convenient and fun for me! Bottom line: Do what you can, when you can, with what you have.

    Good luck in finding a nearby and affordable club as well as partners and your TT playing! As noted, I paid $100/year and potentially had 5 days/nights access but it is a City recreation center, therefore, limited schedules and pre-pandemic shared space with Olympic weightlifting, stationary...

    Liu Guo Liang played short pips on the FH like JJL and invented the RPB style (or first World Champ to use the RPB). Speaking about JJL, he visited my club in NYC ~1987 when he was World Champion. Awesome to see him and the China Team in action in person! Only recall the Woman's World Champ or...

  15. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

    Pre-lockdown, I was using it for about 3 months and getting used to it as it is wood, after having used the Taksim carbon blade for 2 yrs if not more. But then after lockdown eased up and I went back to playing, I had a tough time getting used to it. Went back to the Taksim. At some point...

  17. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

    I had traded my friend for his new unused backup YEO to keep as a spare in case I needed to use it should anything happen to my primary and backup blades. After a month or so, I still didn't use it. He wanted to trade for it back, and I got a Stiga Offensive CR WRB Chinese Penhold instead. . I...

    My old Taksim blade is well old. A friend mentioned that carbon blades will crack inside over time, or words to that effect. It was a handme down from a friend after his use of it for a few years from the 1980s. My 2 rubbers are old and I have not replaced them yet. With that said, the...

    Ok, my "club" has adjusted the schedule to Mondays 6-8:30pm. All other days of the week are during the daytime when I am working. I have been playing the past few Monday nights after about 2-3 months off because i was busy and couldn't make it (when they had 4 nights a week!). My body was...
