  1. ITTF World Youth Championships 2025, Cluj Napoca, 11/23-30

    The funny thing is I totally agree even if you are joking. Or wouldn't we have been more engaged with a China vs Japan final? Just saying.
  2. ITTF World Youth Championships 2025, Cluj Napoca, 11/23-30

    Mixed doubles final with Chirita (from Romania) as well.
  3. ITTF World Youth Championships 2025, Cluj Napoca, 11/23-30

    Anyone know what Koharu Itagaki uses on backhand? Looks likes short pips of some sort?
  4. ITTF World Youth Championships 2025, Cluj Napoca, 11/23-30

    Japan, China, Korea, Taiwan, Germany, India and Wales. Wales doing well in international TT...
  5. Anybody played with a Mazunov?

    Depends on what rubber you use, definitely head heavy. I still have 3, maybe 4. The biggest problem in addition to weight was the fat handle, it caused grip pressure problems if you didn't use a lighter rubber. But I liked the blade ans ir is a good blade for someone who wants decent speed...
  6. Help with glueing on Xiom Hugo HAL

    No issues whatsoever, I just won a match using it lol (and lost one as well lol).
  7. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Got my first and possibly only weekend win. The problem with these levels is that my knees don't let me defend the middle. I need to find real solutions lol. At least plug the gaps. My teammate who wanted to make division 2 decided he wanted to stop playing. He was tired of how he was losing...

    No disagreement in principle, the devil is possibly in minor details.
  9. ITTF World Youth Championships 2025, Cluj Napoca, 11/23-30

    Faraji couldn't win this last year, I dont think his chances have gotten any better unfortunately.
  10. ITTF World Youth Championships 2025, Cluj Napoca, 11/23-30

    Oh, I am not arguing that umpire incompetence should not br highlighted. I am arguing that some of that should be placed in context as being driven by the absence of money and the lack of strong professionalism that results in umpiring. As Tony pointed out, many pf these guys dont have to...
  11. ITTF World Youth Championships 2025, Cluj Napoca, 11/23-30

    I think a video like this will be helpful as long as it is given context. Would hate for umpires to be the targets and get blamed for what is ultimately a system in need of fixes.
  12. TTD Team Spin Challenge With WORLD CHAMPION!

    Thanks. I will take the risk soon and see whether I can figure it out. I have an S24 ultra so it should be compatible with some work. Thanks again!
  13. TTD Team Spin Challenge With WORLD CHAMPION!

    Thanks for the offer - I will take you up on ut. Is the Android issue really that bad? It can't work on the Samsung Ultra phones? I have wanted to buy this for two years now and that is my barrier.
  14. ITTF World Youth Championships 2025, Cluj Napoca, 11/23-30

    Looks like Otalvaro was studied and countermeasures deployed by Korea. No non-Asian medalists and two Chinese in the U15 boys semis. A stark contrast to the U15 boys from China being eliminated by Italy.
  15. Is it unfair to say “yes”/“cho” when the opponent makes an error?

    I think your confusing his coach"s chos with his. Lin and Sora outsource their vocal expression to the bench.
  16. ITTF World Youth Championships 2025, Cluj Napoca, 11/23-30

    Missed a lot of matches yesterday while playing NA Teams. Anyone else watching the insane Yerim-Muromatsu match?
  17. TTDaily: Does the forum need Moderators who are Active on the Forum

    Not sure whar I can do but I have PMed you.
  18. FH like this, domain of boosted H3 only?

    Gozo, Unfortunately, modern table tennis, and to be honest ancient table tennis wasn't entirely dissimilar, just a bit easier because of the smaller ball, requires more use of the body to produce the speed of racket swings that encourage confident technique. So modifying technique to produce...
  19. What’s Better: Playing Hard or Playing Smart?

    Would love to know who this is. Placement and deception are probably simultaneously the most difficult and underrated aspects of quality. Moving a ball 3-6 inches can transform its qualify but it is hard to describe and sometimes incredibly hard to master. The mental part of table tennis is...
