  3. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

    I've watched one of her matches before. Pretty good! In the back of my mind, i was thinking maybe trying out her style, or try out Liu Guoliang's (IIRC, he doesn't twiddle). But then I put on the SP and found it too heavy for me, having played over the years only single-sided. Also, the SP was...

    ACK! I've been busy with work and neglected to check on this thread - thank you Kaizoku for the *cough* :) I don't play the modern PH style, and cannot speak on the RPB by anyone, let alone, the #2 best PH in the world. Curious as to the other PH members' thoughts.

    For me Real Life is to be home and help my son with his homework and test preparation ... but yeah, we all have different Real Lives ... for me, it's more fun to hang out on TTD during lulls of workday than actually playing TT ... I'm kidding!! :) Although my proposed candidate for Post of the...

    Ages ago in Tennis, Ivan Lendl used to be a monster, and following him, Pete Sampras. They both had killer serves travelling 120 mph+ or whatever they got clocked at. They would often ace their opponents. Watching them play inspired me to work on my serves a bit for TT. If the goal of the game...

    2 highlights of Der_Echte one should look for in the video posted above: 4:37-4:48 - Der smacks the table and flexes his bicep after my smash 6:20-6:25 - Der waves bye bye after NL smoked a supersonic loop past me LOL at Der - table tennis is truly an entertainment sport when Der is around.

    I ended up selling my Joby magnetic tripod to "Fun" last week as he was going away on vacation and didn't have a chance to get one for himself. Since then, I went back to my oldschool way - propped my phone against a 20 oz Gatorade bottle filled with water. Angle is not the best at times, but...
