Seeing Munier on the bench for the Lebruns makes me wonder under what conditions he substitutes for Molin... Looks like the Korean info on Felix needs updating...

"Only good for doubles" does it again in singles. Maybe Winter is in not going to get there if Odo and Shin level up lol...

@victormanriquey is very much appreciated. PM me whatever you recommend. I will take it under serious advisement.

So you are obsessed with Butterfly since you have posted about your switch to Tenergy on both sides? And before that you were obsessed with H3 because you used it? And G1 from Nittaku as well? And when I pointed out that Franziska, if you watch the video, was also pushing Glayzer when he...

When I try to serve the reverse pendulum, I often do better when I setup like I am serving the regular pendulum and start the serve as opposed to a reverse pendulum start because it forces me to actively move my hands and backswing and makes my toss more reliable. Any pros that start that...

As has been pointed out, there is no curse, she will be WR 10 in a few months when Ito's WTTC points drop off.

Okay. If you can be clearer on what would change if I was not the moderator. Because I have been posting this way for over a decade on this site and you can't explain what would change even if only to make the point, could you please find something else to focus on? Before I took this role...

Let's say I wasnt a moderator since you are fixated on it. What do you think would change? Curious.

It's obviously common sense, but it is also a Glayzer plug, Moreover, I am pretty sure he would not recommend H3 for beginners as well, especially kids. Where does that leave us?

This was a rumble in the jungle type battle for sure.

Yangzi is a strong and mildly underachieving player. She was MVP of Ultimate TT the season before the last, had played some top players well but has also not been able to break through. I know one of her coaches so I am happy for her. She is young though so there is a lot of room for growth...

Another issue is level difference and adaptation if possible. When someone complains about equipment or the opponents equipment , I find that if they are beginners or intermediate without established ratings amd experience playing with different playing levels in a country with a good system...

Miyu Nagasaki is injured and Miwa Harimoto gets a walkover win cs Nagasaki into the next round (match wasn't even started).

"Fear is the mindkiller." -Dune The biggest and first step is always in training. But a not as big step but what keeps people stuck is not connecting training to matchplay. Look at how you win and lose points in matches. They will usually turn up opportunities to make certain things better...

She sure knows how to beat Yuka, that's for sure.

I played with D09c on my backhand when it first came out and during Covid, I trained with it and played the first covid tournament with it. My opponent's coaches in one match (2600+ players) said my forehand was awesome and my backhand sucked lol. So I caveat these things with saying that...

I just give my wife all my prize money at this point. It rarely covers my entry fee, it is more just a sign that I am not so terrible at table tennis that wasting my time playing has been all for naught,

Jslick89, anecdotes like yours, mine, @victormanriquey etc. are all important (we just shouldn't confuse them with scientific data without having done serious research). Everything you wrote is aligned with traditional wisdom. I have played tournament TT for roughly 15 years now, spent and...

Vs Fan Zhendong? Or Timo Boll? No one is using him as a reference, you have to read the posts to understand what he is being used for and whether how he is being used has any relevance. He was originally being used as an example of the ridiculousness of having someone use a rubber with...

Every coach has a philosophical approach to these things. Sometimes it can lead them to discount things they haven't seen which or to find explanations which are not what others might see if given all the data. For example there are some coaches who do not give a student as much attention if...
