Definitely try to go here.

It's hard to just trust things about equipment without having the chance to test out a lot of equipment. It seems to me, the majority of better players always recommend using a blade with good feel, flexibility and dwell time and try so hard to push players away from the OFF area of the...

I don't know the path you take toward the west, but if you come anywhere near Kansas or Missouri, I'd love to get you some good matches at our clubs!. Private message me if you get the chance. our main club with the best players is at the address of 10440 Marty St, Overland Park, KS 66212

Nice! Glad to see you got a chance to watch a recording of yourself! We never look like we think we do during our strokes and when we finally get a chance to see ourselves in video's it can be both enlightening and a great learning experience!

Hmm, I don't think countering and blocking are always directly related. They weren't for me at least. I have to focus pretty hard on being ready to be able to counter a ball because I have to go through the ball with a more full stroke. The majority of my strokes are very grazing strokes which...

Looping with long pips is very possible, But I think when he uses the term loop he's just talking about doing an aggressive stroke that ends up with topspin. I play with a long-pip player that doesn't often make backspin occur with his long-pips. There are different kinds of long pips. The way...

Looping with long pips isn't impossible, they aren't frictionless.

I was unrated and my first game was against the 1750 player. He was the number 1 seed for the U1900. I think the group was just unlucky that it had nobody over 1800 in it.

I would not have won the 1700 as I didn't lose to him in that. 1900 I lost in semi's to him so who's to know how I would do in the finals, he won pretty easily in the finals. As for our level difference. He says we're the same level but I don't believe we are, I feel like he's a higher level...

taxes don't contribute to what butterfly makes on a product.

Question for Carl and NL. Do you think it would be unwise of me to compete in a higher level section like U2100. AS WELL as my lowest rated section possible? Being able to compete with players around 1800-1900 and winning 50% or more of my matches would surely be at least good practice. I learn...

doesn't matter, butterfly has price control on all sellers to united states customers. This website wouldn't be allowed to ship butterfly products to the United states at a cheaper price than you can get here. Maybe it's real and as soon as you actually check out they would say "sorry couldn't...

that's a discount alone. tenergy in the U.S. is 75USD per sheet aproximately 64 euro

Willingness to ship butterfly items like Tenergy to the United States, at a discounted price, potentially discounted tenergy to 50USD per sheet. Butterfly wouldn't allow this. Leads me to believe it's counterfeit or a scam of some sort. But I could be wrong. Just be warry.

if the player is able to counter your third ball so easily, maybe you don't have very much power (speed/spin) as you should for a third ball attacker. Part of this could be for a few different reasons. One being, maybe your serves aren't very spinny so they can't give you much spin back. a dead...

My training partner was talking to me about he too didn't feel challenged. He won both his events, U1900 and U1700. Felt he wasted his time and didn't learn anything. At least my experience didn't feel like a waste of time :) The highlight of the night wasn't in any of my games, but watching...

Attitude being great is wrong. Danny Seemiller Senior came to our tournament and watched a few of my games. He had told me that I have improved quite a bit since his clinic but don't have the attitude to win in a competitive atmosphere. I believe his words were literally "you need to learn to...

deleted post: just read everyones posts more thoroughly. Was pretty tired last night after not sleeping the night before and don't think I was thinking things through very well when replying to posts myself.

Dunno about this, as a player who comes from an area where there's one tournament a year within an 6 hour drive, only competing in the lowest event possible would be a waste of time and money. What if I were to win the 1700 and have not entered anything harder. then there would be a situation...

I wanted to play a wide range of player's levels for my first tournament. This would tell me where I stand. The U1700 felt the same as the U1900. most 1800 players would rather play the next level up instead of the U1900. there was not a single player over 1800 in the U1900, they were all...
