haha, a player has gotten angry and thrown their paddle hard enough to make a whole through one in the past. Fortunately if a ball does so happen to go through it, we would probably just pretend the ball went over it and ask someone for a little help or go pick it up ;)

He's not US2000, I actually don't know his real rating, I think over 1800, under 1900. Definitely don't use that video as a reference though. Make's him look much worse than he is. Ignore arch's post. He started by guessing a rating and then explaining some shit on why he guessed that rating...

they roll into circles, as you unroll them to set them up they make a wave type of design. ball hits into them and goes through the wave and comes back kind of, usually it just stays there in the wave.

So our club in Kansas has started a league night every Thursday night. This was an attempt to bring new players to the club, and a way to make a little money to expand the club with tables, nets etc. We do a round robin format and adjust peoples ratings accordingly every week. We've only been...

Danny senior told me he used to play games against 1700 players to 51 and have them start at 44. At the time he was 2400. If you're 200 points above you're opponent the match will almost always be a cake walk. I've beaten players 200 points higher than me, had to exert a lot more energy than...

thats it, I'm getting the app!

doubt I'll be better, I'm the kind of player that when warming up you'll think is pretty good by once you start a game dies off pretty quick. my plan after watch NL, is knowing that my General playstyle would be weak against him, realizing how his footwork is. He struggles to back off the...

The thing about t05 is that you get all that spin and catapult without losing any feel in your blade. Mx-p is just as good a rubber in all aspects if we exclude feeling. It's just such an important part of my game that when I left Tenergy, I couldn't do mxp. I'm more of an fx-p person. Larger...

long posts are good, especially the one you made! Definitely keep them coming when ever you feel the need. Just separating your paragraph out into smaller ones would make it easier to read for some.

Because se youve guided players to pass the 2000 mark, yet you rate yourself around 1600. Clearly your analyzing skills are supreme and this should be an easy one for you.

i think there's a misconception about how good 2200 is here.

Ms-s is more comparable to a hurricane rubber with a bit more umph. If you're not in place for the stroke its not too great.

So so you've watched this person play various games, can rewind and re watch them which you've done. And still can't see anything in his game that would give you even a slight problem?

i was wondering if anyone else would notice those shorts.

Idk, I play close to the table for my height. Tallish + Close to table = Little time to react. I can can hit fast shots myself, but I don't counter loop when out of position. Also my stroke "like running" keeps my paddle close to my body. So to get a decent stroke through the ball I need quite...

Arch, you've seen plenty of videos of NL to get a general idea of his playstyle. Do you think you could beat him? If so I want to know if you have a particular strategy. because I sure as hell know that if I never saw his videos I'd have little to no chance to beat him. Fast players are my...

of course people would rather see match footage. But anything is better than nothing, constantly speculating on others while misrepresenting how you are yourself gets tiresome.

My point is why can't you even post a video of a shadow stroke. Surely someone in your country owns a phone

i don't understand why you're unable to even find a phone to show shadow strokes. I showed my coach the video of Carl's footwork when she asked who I'd be playing with in New York. Instantly she says "oooo, he ends his stroke too low. But actually see how his arm moves? He is avoiding something...

yea he dropped below 2200 and got pretty upset, then came training focus and he's back up to 2350ish I believe. Never heard someone say he's a great guy, great player but he sure knows how to aggravate people. All part of his game though, his illegal serves aren't any good so people don't...
