Yecats, In the health of a bat/paddle/racket/blade, my damage is very minor, but it was brand new, hurt all the more because of that. I put on wood filler and had no sandpaper, used a metal file and smoothed it best i could. Will be slapping on the Longpips OX tonight and test it. Hopefully...

bad upload in previous post these are pix for my 1-3 in my previous post

my battle damaged blade :( 1) i chipped the rubber in a freak accident - went to get a ball and hit the net post 2) chipped the back from pushing 3) my curled fingers are starting to dirty up the back 4) no sandpaper - filed the wood filler

Having played CPen forever, I admire how JPenners play. I cannot get used to the grip. I'm psycho though, but have never owned a JPen and tried it ages ago. I should try it from a clubmate. But yeah, that body contortion seems a little more pronounced by JPenners than CPenners... or what I...

Whoa! 2 lefty PH! very cool songdavid98 and suds79! WOOHOO! Interesting! Some modern PH i see love the RPB to the point that they sometimes don't use the punch or even their FH! LOVE HE ZHI MEN/HO CHI MUN! Thanks suds79 on the other 2, will check them out!!

WOW! You are a great coach then, to have to learn something new in order to help out your student! Respect!! I cannot RPB at all... will take me forever to learn/train it, but more importantly I may have carpal tunnel syndrome ... found the weight of the extra rubber hurting my hand so for now...

Would it be wrong of me to think that that it's easier to convert from PH to SH than vice versa?

WOW genrel001!!! Keep it up... PH style must not go extinct! ------------------ Nei ho JeffM :) Thank you TurboZ! and thanks also to Pricey11!

:( FTR, you are not a PH right?

You can spot me 7 or 8 points then! LOL at me But seriously, most PH have to rely on serve and attack ... cannot think of a defensive only PH - that is passive blocking or chopping or something. And in my mind, any defensive PH technique is an offensive technique if able to return the ball to...

Meaning you are a PH now and will convert to SH sooner or later?

Suga D, Wow, since my return to TT after a long layoff, I've not kept track of the players. Those were great videos! Would not imagine JPen using RPB. Will keep Qiu Dang on my radar!! Thank you!!

WOW, thank you Jirrex for that piece of trivia! I had no idea. With LGL's (and/or his coaches at the time) innovation of the RPB, it helped keep PH style alive. However, I wonder what other innovation can be had at this point in the history of the PH style. Would hate to see the next evolution...

Liten, First and foremost, good luck with the purchase and move into your new place! I imagine i may resort to this... ages ago, when wood was allowed, many PH used the wood side to return balls that was too fast for them. When my long pips is on, i don't want to resort to using it in this...

Last night: 1) My friend helped me order a RITC 837 Topsheet (Long Pips) last week and it is in... however, won't be able to hook up with him until tomorrow night. 2) Got out of work late :( Got to club 6:30 pm. Unlike last week, club was full of members! Waited about 30 mins, played/hit for...

lolol

Hello: Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD? I know of a few already (JeffM, Liten, suds79) , not sure if site has a create thread/poll option... didn't think i see it. Are you a modern penholder? Are you a JPen player? Is there a RPB for JPen? Or are you like me an oldschool...

Dear TTD, 42andbackpains has always been on me for a little over a year since my 'unretirement' from TT about the higher percentage short stroke loop instead of smashing or longer stroke loop. I always reply to him: "Scorpion!" from The Scorpion and the Frog story: But now i see 42&bp is a...

LOL -- thank you Carl ... i'm just lucky. With 42&backpains, it's Skill though.
