I will go on record to say that I thought Miu had a better shot at beating CM than Miwa in the team final a few months back. Maybe I don't know better than the Japanese national team coaching staff after all? :unsure: Seriously though that was both uncomfortable and incredible to watch.

I seem to have the same problem but it seems to affect both sides lol

I think you're right that the "standard" American English accent is most easily understood by most of the world due to about a century worth of Hollywood influence. Still, I've been told by my Vietnamese ex girlfriend that my typically Californian accent was difficult to understand compared to...

You can try Nishiohi which has expedited shipping. One week is pretty fast for international shipping though. https://www.nishohi.com/ca/table-tennis/tt-shoes

There's so much dead time in table tennis anyway they just need to just pause whatever they're talking about for a second or two and focus on the action before starting up the topic again. But I do appreciate a bit of noise outside of the sound of the game itself. Gasps and oohs and ahhs from...

Brilliant comeback for Cho Daesung but rough loss for Quadri. Aruna had a chance to put the game away with a smashed against a popped up return but dumped it in the net instead. Always silly to hear the phrase "scar power" from the WTT commentators but that mistake definitely must've had...

I can recommend you this website here for sample training programs: https://peakperformancetabletennis.com/routine/ It's not what I do myself as I have the remnants of powerlifting strength I want to maintain, but I can tell you the guy who created the website knows what he's talking about and...

After barely scraping by Pucar and then getting wrecked by Lim Jonghoon in the first game 11-3, I wasn't giving Harimoto a chance at advancing. But he somehow found a way to flip a switch and went on to win the next 3 games pretty convincingly. Not exactly sure what happened in between Game 1...

Down goes Miwa and Miu in women's doubles. These two don't seem to have any chemistry as doubles partners. Guess it takes a bit more than just having two strong players on the table.

You definitely waited for the right year to get the Eto blade. While the rabbit last year was kinda cute, the Dragon is just way more badass. Of course, you're going to have to do a full review of that thing if you ever get a chance to use it. Outer carbon + hinoki + Nittaku's fastest rubber...

Yeah that was quite a feat. By the 5th game he was so confident in his ability to get the ball back on the table that he only added power on chance balls. The rest were just blocks and lobs with varying spin and location. Didn't even have to end points with his backhand. Not a tactic you see...

Noshad pulls off the upset against LGK! First big CNT upset. Maybe not having to travel halfway across the world this time helped Noshad's performance.

From what I gather, the splintering is a factor of the wood used and not the manufacturing methods. I guess they can be blamed for wood selection, but I'm not sure what sort of testing they can do to identify if the top layer of the top ply will be prone to splintering. Your best bet is to just...

Almost a huge upset by Pavade there getting it to match point against WYD. Lot of big favorites barely scraping by in this first round.

If it's very soft and non abrasive then I don't see why not. Just make sure there's no residual soap or any other chemicals on the sponge.

There are no fakes of rubbers as cheap as Bloom Power. You don't have to worry about that. With tacky rubbers you want to cover them at all times after you use it, preferably after cleaning. Just use a few drops of distilled water and your hand. The sponge is for wiping away excess water, not...

I had a problem with one sheet of Bloom Power I bought where the sticky top layer actually came off with the plastic protection film it came with. Some parts were sticky and some parts weren't sticky at all. The thing produced no spin and I had to trash it after barely any usage. Maybe you got...

Grandma Ni almost got it done against QTY with a barely non-converted match point in Game 4. Amazing she's still giving even CNT members a heart attack at age 60.

Damn what an unfortunate match for Sora Matsushima. Up 2 games. LJH barely scrapes by 4th game. In the 5th game Sora is massively ahead and LJH gets 3 lucky net balls in the span of 4 or 5 points to get back in it and then eventually win as Sora got frustrated. He really needed to take his...
