Rule 88 deals with imponderable mysteries. It is the essence of Zen. But if you prefer tgere is also Rule 6.

This!!

Just remember to obey Rule 88 and you should be ok either way.

Play more events and learn that you are the only one who cares if you win or lose. Unless you are a professional, at least. Breathe deep.

Well at the end of the day you are playing for fun. So if you enjoy the rubber? Ok. But understand that there are tradeoffs using T05 with any blade because of its explosiveness. I know, I used it for ten years, and played many years in speed glue era before thst. This will certainly...

Not always. And maybe the issue is not so much slower as more linear. Something like Stiga Mamba. In general you will make more progress with changing rubber than blade. T05 is a lot to handle on an ALC blade for someone relatively new to the sport.

Go with a slower rubber instead?

Obey the n + 1 rule. And Rule 88.

Video. Nothing else comes close. Let the player see what they are doing. As for that thing in post 2? No.

Appelgren Allplay with Vega rubber. Something along those lines.

Your backswing should be the same speed as the ball coming at you.

"Chinese style". Because we all know that ML, FZD, and XX play the same style? Really??? This is the kind of thing that is absurd about all this. Those three players are entirely different. Maybe the only thing is they all use hard tacky rubber on their forehand. What they mainly have in...

If they have lots of girlz like that, take me with you.

If you buy into the idea that a Vietnamese guy living in France is an expert on Chinese table tennis...

I would believe a double blind test if it showed these special Tenergys were special. Placebo effects are powerful and without controlling for them it's hard to be sure. Especially if you just paid twice the normal price or got a piece of rubber signed by Timo Boll or whomever. And especially...

Yes, Carl has covered a lot of the things that bugged me about ERT videos. There were also a couple of technical things he mentioned too that are contentious matters on which not all coaches agree (assuming I am remembering correctly something he put in one of his videos, which is not...

I use 1/2 inch gaffer tape I buy from Amazon. It is a perfect edge tape. Protects both blade and rubber. It is incredibly cheap and one roll has lasted me five years so far, at least. Splurge! Get a couple of rolls in different colors. (Mine is boring red).
