This is (an unfortunate) part of life everywhere in almost any endeavor. You often don't get to provrr yourself in your preferred manner, you need to climb the ladder multiple times in inconvenient ways to get to the place where you want to be, not the place they give to people who have not...

Going to take more than one day to be sure, but so far, Skyline 3 is exactly what I need. Tempted to go to it on both sides but I did well with it on either forehand and backhand with Hurricane 3 blue sponge on the other side. The main thing they both did reasonable well, the Skyline 3...

Yeah, it sounds to me like some kind of even more linear K3, I would be surprised if it plays well after a month or two.

Not new at all, it is part of the growth on popularity of the hook serve for sure.

The match was on espn3.com as well, just not showing on youtube for a while. Now fixed, but wish WTT could communicate their fubars with transparency somehow...

That dodgy tomahawk serve. But until it is investigated, it will continue to work.

Great rally at 1-0, 6-7 in the Gauzy/Lebrun vs Kao/Chuan match.

Deep breathing can male nervousness worse. That said, breath control is an important dimension of self-control and I would encourage anyone to study books about breathing like the Oxygen Advantage for insights into how to manage anxiety.

Isn't Shin the defending champion in Lagos?

2-1, 9-5 though...

Lily beating a defender should not pass without comment lol!

Quek loses from 10-5 up in the 5th - amazing...

She is becoming dangerous like her sister.

With respect to your last paragraph, I reemphasize that finding your optimal approach to table tennis focus in the face of external slights is a journey. I have lost matches because I complained about an opponent's serve, there was no umpire and lost my ability to focus (or maybe not, serve...

No, but if that is what you seriously got from my post, so be it. Going through a mildly tough time, can't really get into stuff that isn't fun.

Learning theory is a broad topic, so let me give you a very incomplete skeleton of an answer. So I, like you and many others, worked with a variety of coaches over the years. The two most influential coaches were one at the amateur level who taught me a lot about how to hit the ball without...

I am mostly asking these questions to encourage looking at things with a wider perspective - I don't want to push this to a point where it comes across as point scoring. Harimoto's screaming still has its detractors despite his stated intent that it is about himself not about his opponents...
