  1. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    I think it was 2500 Swedish krona (which I think is around 250 euro) for all the days. I paid 1500 kr for Thursday - Sunday. We also decided to get the ticket for Wednesday which was 300 kr. Definitely worth it, it was an amazing experience. I wouldn’t mind missing out on the final even, the...
  2. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    We’ve just received news ovtcharov won’t be playing in the final, Ruwen will instead take his place. I think that was the right decision and will make it more entertaining.
  3. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    You were so right about this. What a match between Germany and Korea.. my god. I don’t think I will ever witness such table tennis again. Lee sangsu might be one of my new favorite players. The only disappointing matchup was with ovtcharov, he doesn’t seem to be feeling well. If he’s still in...
  4. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    The atmosphere in the hall during the sweden games is so good, amazing feeling watching Jon win the the match point against England. Feelings were at an all time high against tepei yesterday, I could barely watch it. Unfortunate to see japan out as I was looking forward to watching them play...
  5. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    Even though I'm half british myself I'm really sad to see japan lose that match, I didn't get to watch the games but now I really want to see what happened. I was hoping to see japan play against kina. Fair play to the English boys, Liam has been on a roll for a while now.. how on earth did Niwa...
  6. Did Fan Zhendong lose to Harimoto on purpose? (Asian Cup 2018)

    I think you misunderstood my post. The discussion itself is pointless, because again, there is no way of knowing. All it is doing is creating unnecessary controversy. Looking at the characters of the CNT I find it unlikely that they would intentionally lose games for an extra medal in a...
  7. Did Fan Zhendong lose to Harimoto on purpose? (Asian Cup 2018)

    I haven't watched your video but this is a pointless discussion. There is currently no way for us to know. But here I go anyway.. I'm a massive fan of the CNT, especially Ma Long and FZD. They better not be match fixing, that would be despicable and they know it. To ensure two medals in a...
  8. German Open 2018

    Its been a long day.. i was convinced this was the final :D
  9. Qatar Open 2018

    Unbelievable how well Calderano is playing today.
  10. Swedish National Championships 2018

    I thought it was rather ridiculous. From what I heard from a few people who attended the event, the measurement wasn't accurate. Either way, the average measurement was 4.09 and it can't exceed 4.04. Additionally, Kristian said it was ok for Jens to play with it. Why not just go ahead and play...
  11. Liam Pitchford defeats Harimoto... youngster all hype??

    I actually didn't find this surprising at all. Liam is playing incredibly well and I thought Harimoto was bound to lose his mental composure at some point. This is actually a good thing for Harimoto, I'm sure he'll learn a lot from it. What's up with these posts trying to create drama? Can't we...
  12. Which player do you love most?

    There are many but I especially love Koki Niwa!
  13. EPIC Clash: Timo Boll vs Michael Maze (XMAS Special)

    I just got back from seeing this Live, amazing.. I've never even seen anything close to this level in real life before.
  14. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    If you check my last post, that video was filmed using a gopro 3+. I didn't think it turned out too bad but there are probably better alternatives. It's easy to set up, but I'm not sure the fish eye lens is that useful as darucla mentioned. Edit: this video -
  15. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    I've moved back to Sweden (where I'm originally from) and recently joined the same club as another forum member (Nicky Franck). We've had some good practice together and just started filming. I've only seen myself play a few times so its been very useful to see what I'm actually doing. Here's a...
  16. Match losing conclusions and how to improve them.

    Hey, for reading service try to pay close attention to what your opponents bat is doing at contact. What types of service receive errors are you making? Are you popping the ball up or downright losing the point on his serve? That you don't know how to receive serves you haven't seen before is...
  17. Timo Boll Interview: About 80% of pro's are using illegal rackets

    Seems to me that he's just bringing it up as an issue and that the ITTF ought to do something about it. "In order to prove this, the Rubber has to be removed from the racket and sent to the lab. That's what I am encouraging since long ago. But the International Association considers this...
  18. How to see the ball early ?

    Obviously there are also another set of cues for each variation of his reverse pendulum which you would also have to learn. Some are more obvious which one picks up on first (particularly the pre-serve routine), the others take more thought etc. It was just an example. Like you said in that...
  19. How to see the ball early ?

    With this I feel like there's a wide range of things that when they all come together help you "see" the ball early. When first learning those cues I guess you have to pay attention to them but with time it should be largely automatic and this is how you get good at anticipating where the ball...
