  1. just cut of some rubber experiment

    Guess it's no longer a full Moon. Does it throw off the balance at all?
  2. Sanwei Fextra 5, new blade?

    The old Fextra 7 must have changed since you bought it. I've had 3 and all are 1313 hz to 1335 Hz. It's not very fast at all. Maybe around same speed as my old Nittaku Acoustic. Just more linear and stable. So it's easier to use for me because of it.

    If you guys are wondering what the characters 必勝 mean for the Japanese fans (on signs and headbands). It means "certain victory." That's as overly optimistic as it gets against the Chinese but I appreciate it lol
  4. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    Was the same in the men's team final. Chinese fans bought Gold medal tickets early because they knew they'd be in it I guess. If you're Japan you expect the women to get there maybe. But Swedish fans probably didn't expect to be in the match and so I'm guessing a few paid the high prices for it.

    Did Adam just call Miwa "Mima Ito"?
  6. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    Well hold on a second. We finally get a game closed out. I was about to go to the bar for a bday party but now I might be stuck here to see how this plays out
  7. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    WOW I can't believe Miwa saved that net ball. Saved the edge ball in Game 1 of doubles too. This girl's reactions are incredible

    SYS still refuses to drop a game to a non Chinese player. Think she's something like 13-0 on game points against non CNT this Olympics. That doesn't even take into account the giant comeback against Hirano in that G1.

    It's not just you. It's plenty of people online who found it utterly bizarre. I've been watching the Olympics since the 80s and I've seen China win countelss gold medals. Only in this event did I see such a cold reaction to a victory. Of course people with no explanation to give will tell you...

    It happens often and consistently enough where there's definitely more to it than their opponents choking. But it's obviously a lot more pronounced when the opponents actually get too tense and try to force things.
  11. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    Some dejavu. 8-3 even worse than 9-5. At this rate everybody is going to have to retire, amirite?
  12. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    Now Hirano celebrating points where she clipped the net too. From what I've seen, Hirano was never a big fan of apology culture anyway so not unexpected. This scoreline is pretty unexpected though. Amazingly fast start.

    Great match. Never ceases to amaze me how almost all CNT members can tap into another gear when it really counts to get the win.
  14. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    Chinese pair now just fully celebrating nets and edges lol Guess there's no need for niceities in the gold medal matches.
  15. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    It's close enough where I've seen some reviews from people preferring Rxton 9 and some saying it's a good option but they prefer H3 blue. For selfish reasons and to keep the Loki thread fresh, I vote for you trying it and then writing a review here. I'm waiting for my LAC to die so I can try...

    She's playing way too negative. Just getting it on the table and hoping Jeon misses. I usually root against this style of play when it's the auntie or uncle at the local club. But I'm rooting for some more matches and it doesn't look like we're gonna get it.
  17. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    Welp doesn't look like we gonna get the Kaufman SYB matchup. Today was maybe a bridge too far for the youngster.
  18. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    I didn't realize there were books offering lines on these matches. Kaufmann here is a 2-1 favorite going into the match.
  19. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    Damn that 8-8 point where the Koreans looked dead on two consecutive smashes might have broke the backs of the Germans. Edit: Yeah 3 straight points after that to win the match.
  20. Paris Olympic Games 2024

    First of all, what's "my side"? The topic of a why the Chinese seemd unhappy about CM win was talked about multiple times in this thread. It involves the Chinese team, is related to table tennis, and provides some explanation for what we're talking about. If you're looking for balance...
