    Wow.. so WCQ vs ZQ - WCQ has to save the day.
  4. 2020 China National Championship

    My stream has ended lol. ML up game point in game 4 but down 1-2.
  5. 2020 China National Championship

    Ma Long is now in full tilt - timeout called. Needs to go back to zen mode.

    Yeah, the match is still on lol....
  7. 2020 China National Championship

    The youngster Liu Yebo vs the veteran (to put it mildly) Zhang Chao. Can Zhang Chao enter the time machine like Wang Bo? Zhang Chao wins the first game 11-8. He is fighting to give a morose-looking LGY a chance to take on ML. Zhang Chao wins 2nd game and forces Liu Yebo to use timeout as...
  8. 2020 China National Championship

    Very tight first game between the CNT shakehand lefties. Only separation occurs on last point - WCQ 12-10 LGY. LGY pulls out an equally tight second game - this is going to be a classic if it stays this tight. The tightness isn't holding. WCQ is varying game speed and power and getting a...

    Ma Long struggled out the gate, but is now a boss. Zhou Qihao reads Ma Long very well. Ma Long has to always expect the ball.

    No it is not though it isn't the whole story. You need to grip the racket harder to create a normal force that prevents it from slipping if you don't have grip tape as handles that are smooth have less friction than the tape. The flip side is that you may grip into it more if it feels too soft...
  12. Is my fast blade a “crutch”?

    I think zyu81 captured most of it but something about this stroke is a massive step in the wrong direction. Your old stroke had more correct elements, this blade looks too slow for you and you are massively overcompensating and swinging across your body to a point where if you don't finish the...

    Yes you are. Usually, trying to time the use of the body and legs better will initially lead a drop in shot quality on both forehand and backhand. It is worth it, but as amateurs, we lack the time and the patience. But try to find a balance if you are trying to beat really good players...

    You are working hard on your game - that is the good part. You are also moving to the ball on many of they strokes .The ball quality is good but aspects of your approach are going to make it hard to improve long term. When you practice movement, the focus should be moving into position to...
  16. Advice on BH technique?

    It is probably better you don't, it always looks worse on video than your brain pretends it was.
  17. Backhand change Dignics 05 to 09c or.....

    Yep. Mine clearly degraded compared to my new sheets but I still play well with them.
  18. Adam Bobrow vs World no. 7 Lin Yun-Ju

    Adam always puts in effort to win. His style just doesn't register with what most people think is serious table tennis. But one of the reasons that people don't let like Adam is because it is a hard style. Lin was just way too strong for it to matter.
  19. Adam Bobrow vs World no. 7 Lin Yun-Ju

    Everything was sick. It kinda reminded me of when I played Filip Szymanski in a handicap match at Westchester (I was spotted seven points). I won the first game 11-1. It was downhill from there. I couldn't put a ball past him and the ball kept thing back with crazy spin from incredible...
  20. Backhand change Dignics 05 to 09c or.....

    09c is IMO more about being able to take bigger swings at the ball close to the table because of the tackiness. If that is what you are looking for then go for it. But it definitely isn't the fastest rubber out there. Openers are still largely about your effort IMO.
