    Hope you get better soon! If it offers you any comfort, I'm resting my knee also as I twisted it at work. For what has happened to my other knee, this time I'm not playing at all until it is completely fine. So it will take a little while.
  2. Which player do you love most?

    Xu Xin. The Cloudwalker, the Showman. ;)

    Thanks for the review! I got my pair as a bday present last december, but haven't worn it yet! Will get around to sharing how it feels for me when I do wear it.

    Ive been playing with the blade for the past 2 days with the robot. Still having trouble with 'counter-hitting' in the forehand side. The bat as a whole, combined with the rubber, seems softer than the carbonado, and when the ball contacts the bat, it doesn't fly off immediately, but instead...

    I sanded the edges of my blade for more than an hour today after I got off the plane. Now the blade feels more comfortable in my hand. I also put on an edge tape so I don't have to worry so much of denting the blade, as I won't be able to see the dents anyway haha. I played with my friend at...

    Sorry about the link ttmonater, I have fixed it in my original post now. Thanks for your feedback! 2. Yeah I often have trouble doing Rpb in the tomahawk serve, even with the old setup. Will need to practice that more. 3. Yeah, it could be my attention level. I'll pay more attention to it...

    Thanks ttmonster! That is so true. I played with another friend today, purely just wanting to get more used to the blade. I still haven't got used to it, my shots were not consistent. He commented that in terms of the quality of the shots, they are similar at this stage when compared to my old...
  9. Happy New Year Everyone! What's your resolution?

    Happy new year! Resolution is to stay injury free and to play tt when I got the time free from work.

    After checking out the timo boll ALC blades at a table tennis store in HK, I decided to get one from an older batch, as I wanted the weigh to be around 86grams. I tried to keep the rubbers the same as what I was using on my carbonado in order to feel the difference in the blades. So I put on...

    Thanks alot guys. Yes, what I was asking about is a comparison of the Carbonado 145 and TB ALC. I was worried about the dwell / control of the TB ALC due to the harder outer layer, but I was reassured by NL that the fear was unsubstantiated. This puts me closer to getting it. I guess, my final...

    After thinking about what it is and why I am even thinking of trying a new blade, I thought of a reason apart from the curiosity of playing with a butterfly blade. With my current carbonado 145, I'm quite comfortable with it. I feel happy with my control, but I feel I am lacking a little bit on...

    Thank you for your input ttmonster! That is a good question. I do not feel my current blade is lacking anything particularly. I have always wanted to try a butterfly blade, but I've never really owned one. Last time, when the apolonia Tiago ZLC blade was released, I liked the design and the...

    Does anyone have any experience with Timo Boll ALC? I saw it in the store and it has a penhold version. So I am considering it if I was to get a new blade.

    Makes sense! I still prefer if i can just relax and watch the video :rolleyes:

    Generally I would try to post full length matches if I deem it was necessary. You guys would know already as I've done that many times before. But with these matches, the wait between each point is quite long, and not all are interesting. So I will be doing highlights first.

    Met up with my HK friend finally for the first time this visit. Despite having a back injury from lifting luggage on the plane, I decided to give it a go, because life is too short and every single day of holiday without TT is a day wasted. Booked a court for 2 hours. We made good use of the...

    Hey Boogar, I watched the first and second video against Chigra and Didi. Firstly, I feel you played quite well despite your injury, and your opponents are of quite high level too. First match: I particularly liked your fh loops, and some of your backhand opening loops. Your serves worked well...

    I am not good with my geography, but I will keep an eye out for "San Jose" area. :)

    Hey Confiscate, Thanks for your compliments on my video. In comparison, your videos are excellent too! Good coverage of the club with nice camera. I think the reason that NextLevel changed our ranking in his competition is because "Blades and prizes are given on a first come first serve...
