Who does he lose to that justifies that analysis? How would you describe Wong Chun Ting?

He is obviously too slow for you - it would be interesting to see what happened to your strokes against a player fast enough to put you under pressure. Many of your strokes don't go into the ball towards the traditional finish position so that is what drives the extra length. You shorten the...

Yes. For a certain player it might.

It is really a matter of experiment, T05FX is soft, but is not the kind of rubber people used to call soft. That said the plastic ball has changed a lot of things. Below is my opinion, but it is only for me. If I used FX though, I would use it in 2.1mm to be honest. I tend to use harder...

This thread is still on TTD. https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/showthread.php?19780-How-an-inverted-setup-works-explanation-by-Stefan-Feth It references this post from a high level player and coach...

The timing of this video is interesting as the three major issues he talked about are three biggest issues I have identified for practice in my game: 1. Taking the ball later on serve return. 2. Generating more spin on the forehand by snapping my wrist in to the ball more intensely. 3...

Anything to this? https://blog.23andme.com/23andme-research/23andme-finds-evidence-that-blood-type-plays-a-role-in-covid-19/

They just walked it back. Look for the press report.

It isn't so much lower power as consistency given a swing speed. You aren't going to be able to get as much power and consistency on the backhand as the forehand because the strike zone for the stroke is much smaller and harder to adjust to the ball. Therefore using a softer rubber to...

Your technique and movement is better than mine, I may hit a better ball sometimes with pure strength though that is debatable. You probably need more random drills to bring out your true footwork and stroke deficiencies close to the table. Good luck and hope you share more video and matches...

Waiting for today's video...

Yes, after being cut. I started the main experiment with T05H and Dignics 09C can't be that different.

It was maybe 2 to 4 grams per sheet. Not much, but for me a big difference since I hate head heavy stuff and use hard sponges. I don't get much more out of thicker hard sponge.

I use Dignics 09C and I like it a lot - use it in 1.9mm to take care of the weight.

He had many injuries as well, let's not remain entirely focused on the mental issues.

It isn't easy for any country to have more than one generational player and IMHO, Germany imported one as well to get two. Germany may not be at quite the same level after Boll retires and I don't think Dima will age as gracefully as Timo. But Germany will clearly be one of the top European...

Yes, which is why Freitas and Apolonia left Tibhar for Butterfly when they were required by Tibhar to use MX-P instead of Tenergy 05.

Don't try to substitute the effort required to improve with equipment changes. It doesn't work. You can play like Waldner with almost any modern inverted rubber, it all depends in what you are trying to do.

Mi Hirano also has a WTTC bronze medal. He level has fallen quite a bit in competitive results since then but Japan is not China, in China, they would have figured our how to fix her by now. You seem to think that you can make any argument to avoid the facts but the decline of Hirano is not...

Ma Long had won every title (continental) in existence except the WTTC and the Olympics. He even has a World Cup in 2012 which Chen Meng lacks. Not even close. Chen Meng is a good player so this is all just stuff and it is borderline nitpicking. It is just stuff to point out when someone...
