  1. Singapore Smash 2026, Singapore, 2/19-3/1

    I really should just take your set. But to make it slightly interesting and to reveal that I am a fraud lol, I will take He Zhuojia over Hayata and Redziminski over Chen Yuanyu. The rest I take your picks, though I think Dang is also susceptible.
  2. Glayzer vs Dignics 05

    It is all those things, but the ball will not cause errors from your opponent just as you won't make many errors. Again this is for someone like myself who relies heavily on the spin from the rubber at my swing speeds. If you are not as dependent on spin to win points, it might not matter.
  3. Singapore Smash 2026, Singapore, 2/19-3/1

    Matsushima is younger and more aggressive, but I don't think he is faster nor a version. He is much more powerful and that is the problem that Kanak still has no true solution for yet and until he does, I don't see a path for him to get closer to the very top unless he can get into an...
  4. Glayzer vs Dignics 05

    Glayzer is a very good rubber but it is not a Dignics rubber - if you think that Dignics is giving you control issues on passive shots, Glayzer might be a reasonable alternative. If you win a lot of points on spin production, the drop in what you get with Glayzer might make you have to play more...
  5. My Race Tournaments in Germany

    The kids put in more hours than you do and are at a height and physical stage where if they don't swing at the ball, the ball will not move. You as a late age adult learner should do more with less for both practical and physical reasons. The overall flow of the matches is far better. Many of...

    The sad thing is that the Japanese men (other than Matsushima and maybe Shinozuka) seem so averse to 09c despite this issue.

    Jha has no excuse, he was on a TTR court.
  8. Singapore Smash 2026, Singapore, 2/19-3/1

    I don't disagree with you but some of these things come down to norms and conventions within the sport. In basketball for example, they deal with crowd cheering and trash talking all the time. Granted, one may argue that sound is a bigger deal in table tennis for making and assessing a shot...
  9. Singapore Smash 2026, Singapore, 2/19-3/1

    It was something I noticed when watching him play An and also in XD. But TT has wasted a lot of time addressing these things and I am not sure where Asia (China) stands on it, choing like Harimoto could have been killed a long time ago if anyone cared.

    He was the last guy I thought about flipping in my predictions. But it will be close....

  12. Singapore Smash 2026, Singapore, 2/19-3/1

    Honoka's first two games called into question my powers of prognostication... now Lim is the last starfighter... but wait, Bernie is impersonating the Lazarus girl... EDIT: PHEW! That was close...
  13. Singapore Smash 2026, Singapore, 2/19-3/1

    Sorry when I said till LA 2028, I meant the first ranking list after. Though of course, it is more likely I would have given up and paid you before then.
  14. Singapore Smash 2026, Singapore, 2/19-3/1

    Odo beats Diaz T-League is useless! Coton beats ZQH Pro A is the bomb!
  15. Singapore Smash 2026, Singapore, 2/19-3/1

    Hashimoto looks lost... Bernie came for business....
  16. Singapore Smash 2026, Singapore, 2/19-3/1

    Only Tuesday for now: Lim over Gauzy, Coton over ZQH, Odo over Diaz (tear in my eye), the rest I match you for today.
  17. Cleanest serves in Table Tennis - Benedikt Duda

    High loss isn't automatically clean, check Hugo if you doubt this. Kanak may be clean but the case stiok has ro be made. Some of his lower toss serves can be dubious.
  18. Singapore Smash 2026, Singapore, 2/19-3/1

    Most spin I have ever seen Lily play with. Must havw helped as well to have Gao Jun as her coach
