    Hit about 45 mins last night with one of my regular training partners P. In the past we alternated in being the 'attacker' ... last night i was all 'defender' ... i blocked the whole session for him. In the past, he just was steady 60% power/speed. Last night, before I showed up he worked out...

  7. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

    Hello Hurricane_boss: Welcome to TTD as well as this Penholder thread! I am trying out RPB also and like you coming from TPB. My best advice is: If you want to give up on TPB altogether, you must use RPB ALL the time in training. Not sure if you are playing tournaments where you may have to...

    Interesting ... at ~1:16-1:17 - Wang Hao moves his racket ... during practice and/or warmup, I subconsciously do this ... not sure if it's me reading the incoming spin and i'm adjusting or what

    IMO, you have repaid him by paying it forward by sharing with members on this thread (and I'm sure you have shared on other threads) Thank you Sir as well as to Jimmy Butler!
  10. What are the unwritten rules of table tennis?

    Wow! Some I knew, some I didn't e.g. 11-0, although I would not want to win 11-0, but didn't realize it was an unwritten rule ... perhaps because the bulk of my playing time was in the 21/5 era. Thank you one and all!

    At first I thought it was me, and although I know the AH is a fast blade, way faster than most blades i've used, it didn't dawn on me until reading NL's post, that i may have miss those net/edge balls because the blade is faster. *crosses fingers* Thank you monster!

    Interesting NL! Good luck and have fun! I'm not sure if it's me not being fast enough with reflexes or if the American Hinoki is a faster blade Lately I'm noticing I cannot adjust to net balls or edge balls... i move my hand/racket to return the ball, it hits net/edge and i cannot...

    Excellent progress 42&bp! When we old men get together with the other old men from the TT crew, I'll ask you for 10 points, 2 games AND the serve! Seriously though, glad to hear you got your cortisone shot and playing relatively pain-free again!
