    When I play against my coach, and he had an master of sport rating, some time it doesn’t matter how much I put on the ball, if that move and the placement was obvious to him, he just counters it with correct bat angle, by reading game situation. My own spin, and speed/power that I have insert in...

    Btw, my goal is to achieve candidate in master of sport degree/level of play, that should be about 2200-2300, or 45-55 in our rating system. That and above i consider, as a strong level of play. Will see, does I’m able to, and how much time it will take 🫡

    Keeping test with an FZDALC, it goes great for now. I feel that it is more linear than HALC - maybe bc limba is kinda more flexing when power loop. Cmon, TT guys and nerds, give me some sort of an advice on how to loop 🤓

    Of course, the resources and sponsoring didn’t = guaranteed success. We know a lot of guys who has butterfly sponsorship, having best training camps for years, but never ever able to shine on a world scene, or even on a Bundesliga, for example. But, it means a lot, any way. When you every day...

    https://ligas.io/uttf/ranking/men Look here, all who rated about 60, and above, those are guys with a master of sport degree mostly. You can choose English language on a site. But as I told, those guys are very good, but didn't have resources and sponsors to train and compete worldwide. But if...

    There are many masters of sport, son of my coach is a master of sport and this is very respectful degree. The only problem, that most masters of sport are didn't have resources to train in outside of Ukraine with good and quality world class sparring partners. So they just keep they pretty high...

    yes, he is Master of sport world class, but I just can not imagine that Master of sport is 1600, as I told they are 2500 minimum players - those are 0.1% of a players Master of sport guy, from our club is winning Gauzy when they where cadets. You can watch first video by clicking on it and...

    My coach has 2300+ elo at chess.com, but when he played against a GM, live match in our club (there is one dude that is master of sport in TT and GM in chess) - it’s was just like cat playing with a mouse - no chance at all 🙂 So yeah, there is a much of difference between 2300+ and 2500-2600

    Yeah, I see it now, but for some reason the forum notifications told me, that you are quoting me, with the same quote - so I replied 😃

    Yeah, but I talked about the first one, that you uploaded. Not the against pips player, against inverted. And that one counter loop that we talking about. With the pipped one, there was the story that many inverted players going trough - losing to unusually wobbled, and no spin, underspin...
  14. Slow blade with fast rubbers vs. Fast blade with slow rubbers

    For a beginner all+ or off- with some not super quick tensors or hybrids would be the best choice. For an advanced users there is a time, when it’s time to go up in speed, and go for carbon inner/outer. The amount of that time is super individual thing, and dependent on a goals and ambitions of...

    If i will be able counter most of the loops like that with an ez, than maybe. But only one loop counter is not enough for 2300, again, i maybe wrong. Anyway, I usually counter when I’m I get the predictable ball from my opponent opening, then it’s just automatic move (like in practice). Or I...

    Im not talking bout practice, im talking bout real game. In practice I can beat my coach at counter looping from forehands sometimes, both close and far from the table, and he's very strong and technical in spin department. You definitely have good spin, but that opening you repeated for several...

    I can do such shots too, but im not 2300 definitely. I really like to counter loop I guess its just the thing that came from boxing, where I was pretty good at counter punching. He make only one countertop since you loops is strong and low enough, in that moment he just anticipated that move -...

    Yeah, maybe. Sometimes players shines more when they have harder of a challenge. But you were not to far from getting win on him. Anyway our rating system is the thing I don't really understand, Yarsolav Zhmudenko that playing as a pro, and playing in Bundesliga having about 75 Ukrainian...

    To be fair, he is not looking like 2300 player, but again we have a totally different rating system. So maybe im missing something. I can judge only by watching other 2300 players games. Maybe if you messing him up, with more shirt serves, mixing sidespin or no spin - results would be...

    This is the specialty of TT, that in amateur level, there is so many ways and styles, that leads you to how you can win a match. Not everyone build to topspin, but there are so much other options to have some fun on the table. Why not to? 🙂
