I've always enjoyed the idea of the Nittaku tenaly handle. Even got to handle a few while shopping in Tokyo. But there's just a lack of attractive models. For a while it was just Tenaly and Tenaly Acoustic. Looks like they now have Tenaly Carbon and Tenaly Acoustic Inner as well. But why are...

Lind gave Dang Qiu a run for his money but came up short 11-9 in the 5th game. So many good players going out in the first round. Meanwhile there are some 3rd tier players matched up with players sneaking in through qualifiers. Matchmaking really needs some tweaking.

It's my favorite so far too out of all I've tried, even if I've only tried 7 or 8 FH rubbers. The only rubber that might have felt better was the 5 minutes I tried a HL5 with H3 Pro BS. I still have a sheet of Rxton 9 and Battle 2 Pro BS to try. If any are anything similar to H3 blue then I'd...

I mustve gotten lucky because my LAC has lasted 35 hours without any noticeable degradation in characteristics. It's still as tacky as the new sheet of Bloom Power too. I'll break in the Bloom Power for a bit and see if that changes things. LAC at the moment feels both easier to play on medium...

How does Bloom Power change after a break in? I just used it for the first time and it feels a lot slower, less powerful and more 'hollow' feeling than Loki Arthur China. It's got a bit more spin and hold, but feels a bit weak still. I'm pretty sure I glued it properly, but was going to redo it...

So both of their interests are aligned for similar reasons. That's pretty interesting and it'd be cool to get the details about how that all came about. I remember seeing a video from about a week ago where they showed the Japanese team staying behind in Busan to practice with the Korean team...

That part makes sense, but why would the Korean team split up their pair in order to help out the JNT interests? :unsure:

Canada works.

Towards the end of Gm3 and all of Gm4 most all of Lebrun's points were lost due to overshooting the table long. Maybe ML was adding some extra spin to his shots and Alexis didn't notice? Certainly looked like a tale of two halves. Competitive match turned into a blowout.

Big miss on a high ball putaway by Alexis at 9-4. Then ML brings it back to deuce and wins the game. Alexis able to keep his emotions in check after a heartbreaking giveaway, but that was rough. Edit: Alexis would go 1-11 over the next 12 points after that miss.

Wasting your time? You're the one bizarrely holding a grudge from several months ago from a normal discussion that you decided to disengage from (ostensibly, since you didn't have any real point to make). It's incredibly obnoxious for you to bring it up again randomly with snide remarks later on...

@zeio heres my response if you haven't seen it yet. Let's have a discussion.

Yes ignore actually engaging in a discussion with me and keep making snide posts instead like a middle school girl. Seriously, you are a child.

No it wasn't my argument. It was a quote about a completely different issue that you bizarrely pulled out of nowhere out of context. Let me remind you of the context. You said that Hayata would never beat SYS ever because she just lost in the 5th game by 2 points, despite SYS benefitting from a...

This was actually a pretty insane match with it going to deuce and more drama in the 5th game. Don't think either of those players will forget that match anytime soon.

How long have you been receiving coaching? I couldn't hit a consistent topspin FH shot for the life of me for most of my first year training. I had a coach, I hit the ball spinner all the time, and just never got the feel for it. I played VR TT for like two years over covid and it was all over...

Brateyko and Vivarelli just had an old-school scoring system game that ended 19-21. High drama.

You might want to try more supportive (more cushiony and heavier) court shoes like for badminton or volleyball. Stuff like Mizuno Gel Rocket or Yonex shoes.

Sample size is relevant in most situations. It's really easy to create narratives with a small number of results. Those narratives just won't be very reliable. Sorry if math gets in the way of your feelings, brother.

Uda forfeited after playing 5 or 6 points. Looked like he was injured coming into the match and called it when he felt it reaggravate. Shame because he looked great and utterly destroyed his last opponent (Tanned Lucas).
