  1. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Reading your post again, without seeing your stroke, I suspect it is perfectly fine. The main difference and what makes Sam, Liam and the pros effective is that because of the banana flick and the modern backhand, what they have gotten good at is using a short backswing to get massive...

    The sport just seems to be dying a slow death everywhere. Fan coming in brings in some money but there needs to be a way to better make the money flow round.
  3. Calderano Signs with Joola (#139)

    Ah okay. At least you were earnestly consistent.
  4. Calderano Signs with Joola (#139)

    My point though was that the posts made over two years ago were explanatory. And consistent with what was being said today. You could have gotten the same answers you got today from those posts. I was curious what you expected the different answer to be.

    I am being silly for reasons tied to earlier posts on the thread. Ignore me.
  6. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    A couple of things. The way I like to teach table tennis is that whether you play within or discard the official technical structure, every stroke has a shape/path. If you produce that shape or path, your stroke will work, the risks are all to health based on how the mechanics impact your...

    Language is a dangerous thing sometimes. When you say Darko's elbow is moving or fixed, the question is moving relative to what and fixed relative to what. I think that will resolve your issue and enhance your understanding of the stroke. What Vlad really means when he talks about fixed elbow...

    Well, when you look at all the evidence, what is your best hypothesis?
  10. Calderano Signs with Joola (#139)

    @ThePongCommenter , @zeio As far as I can see, there is no entitlement to any explanation for "CODE" whatever. What surprises me is that you find evidence that Matt's story on custom blades is consistent with completely independent posts he made over 2 years ago and now rather than grant a...

    Thats part of the reason I posted it. So that technical experts like yourself can comment on what separates people like him with "a weird technique" but strong matchplay.
  12. Sabine Winter switches to antispin

    Allow him to continue his arguments. He is revealing himself for who he is perpetually. Nagasaki is the higher ranked player than Sabine. What is so special about her beating Sabine? And why is Japan so critical when Sabine is clearly the top ranked player in Germany and Europe? Does Japan...

    Can the rating and technical experts guess this guy's rating?

    Have you tried Primorac Carbon, Gozo? What did you think of it if so?
  17. Butterfly Zyre 03

    If it was a Primorac Carbon, or Amultart would you have called him Crazy?

    Custom or commercial?
  19. Calderano Signs with Joola (#139)

    Nah, my argument had nothing to do with Matt. I just wanted to point out that my experience with Butterfly blades has some exceptions to yours. You clearly had a bad experience with the Anders Lind blades and copies and I am just trying to see how deeply you investigated it by collecting data...
  20. Rapidly improving “begginer” equipment

    So the challenge you have is that you will be working with a coach who doesn't believe in it. I am not sure how to advise you because seriously, it is not about form or playing level, the most important thing is having a coach who believes in you and is willing to work with you. And if this...
