  9. What makes Table Tennis a sport?

    If table tennis wasn't a sport we'd call it ping pong. When someone asks me to play ping pong, I'm just hitting around and having fun. when someone asks me to play table tennis, I'll be playing a different game. What makes boxing a sport? The best boxers in the world upon becoming old, can...

    don't short yourself so much arch! I bet you have heavier, more deceptive serves than any of us! No video needed, this is what I believe :)

    you've been around long enough to not worry about anything arch says. If someone like Dan tells you to stop, then stop. But when you're contributing to the thread with each of your posts surely you're fine.

    When you were on your journey through the states, did anyone estimate you at that time? Compared to then, you've gone up quite a few levels, especially in the relaxation department.

    Ahh thanks, I was searching through quite a few other threads looking for his posts, trying to find where something written about table thickness for me to learn about. I was ready to be eating my words.

    As I read how you're playing you sound like you're improving quite a bit too. How's your rating reflecting that recently? You're constantly learning and with how your service has improved so much I'm imagining you may have shot your level up quite a bit.

    I think the recording yourself so frequently is really helpful. It lets us see how far you've developed and how quickly you're doing it. I like seeing how from day to day, your stance is changing and patience changes between different days. This is what makes me want to record myself more...

    Made a long-pip on one side paddle for fun. I've used quite a few other people's paddles that have the stuff on them and I think they're a blast to play with. Tournament this saturday-sunday and I'm contemplating using the long pip junk. Looping is super easy with the inverted rubber on the...

    I don't have a problem with lower level players thinking they're as good as me. If they start bragging, other players at the club know my level and don't believe them anyway. That being said, I understand how easy it is for them to think they're better than they are because of how they may play...

    if you have a worn down table with no friction the ball won't act right when it hits the table. too hard and you'll be breaking balls. I'm saying there isn't a minimum. also depends on your price range and what kind of table you want. if you want a professional table of the best quality. copy...
