Currently you have to buy the rubber and sponge as a one piece unit. Why can't the sponge and rubber top sheet be purchased separately and combined by the player? You can then choose a Hurricane top sheet with a dignics sponge and have very specific characteristics that is very customized...

So you're saying that ML got to the finals and since it doesn't mean as much to him as WCQ that he just let him win? It's hard to believe that an elite athlete would play hard to get to a tournament finals and just throw the match due to politics? I guess since all finalists were from the same...

The womens final was much more entertaining than the mens. It just seems liked ML gave up or stopped trying after down 2-0. He just didn't have the fire or eye of the tiger anymore. He may have been discouraged because everything he tried to do WCQ had an answer to. WCQ was playing out of...

But that can happen to anyone not just females. It must be the TT groupies that scream every time Calderano changes shirts.

Why is the spectator crowd overwhelmingly female. However when you go to a TT club the players are overwhelmingly male?

At first I thought side but from a different camera angle it looked like it did hit the top.

I have the exact looking shoe Attack Excounter 2 but I think they make the same color combo for the dominate FF2 model. Fit's perfectly for wide feet.

Is it me or does that match look like Dr Evil playing mini me?

I just wonder how many other countries besides China would draw that many people in the audience for a round of 32 session?

I agree. I don't like to attempt to stay with them in the short quick game. So I think most men will be better off going to the farther away power spin game.

I understand your point but I'm pretty sure 90% of male TT players can over power their female counter parts. At least all the ones I've seen.

That's exactly right. She loves rhythm and short, quick rallies. I'm quick too but if I get into a quick rally with her I usually can't keep up. My only fallback is to back up to get a longer wind up and power loop. At that point I just over power her.

Don't forget Hugo destroyed him the last time.

Thanks for all the coaching guys. I got a lot of good input. I agree that heavy spin will give me a big advantage since she doesn't like to play back. So it would be very difficult for her to keep it on the table. I will try to keep spinning heavy but I do remember when I've tried it before...

There's a girl in my club that is really good. Probably around 1900. She beats all the other women in the area and can beat most men too. If you play her game which is close to the table and quick short rallies she will out play you due to her quickness. If a man can get her to play back...

At first I thought this was April fools. lol This would be great to promote TT in the US.

I'd like to try it but they're really pushing the prices up. It's much over the $50 mark. It seems newer rubbers are testing the waters to reach $60. Maybe due to inflation but they're really pushing the limits.

Victor I share your sentiments on dragon grip. I liked it a lot at first but with the longevity and supply issues I've moved on to other comparable rubbers. Is the Donic Bluestar tacky at all? How is it for short/soft shots?

Yup you're right. There's no avoiding it. But it's something I try not to do.

Well I used to buy non table tennis supplies as well. Some arrived damaged due to poor packaging, products that are very different than what was described, of course it's very cheap quality. And the biggest factor of course is supporting a government that supports genocide and doesn't play by...
