    That's fair. It probably has a level of player it is useful for.

    Tell that to BRS and see what happens.
  3. Remove Varnish question

    Good handles are designed to keep their design after getting sanded down. So you may be fine using sanding to remove the varnish.

    Robots are okay for footwork drills and specific aspects of spin control. Not so good for other things. The sooner you find a hitting partner the better.
  5. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    The answer is different if you play every day vs if you play once a week or less etc. If you don't play a lot you have to just accept it and try to play more. If you play a lot, you have to figure out how to get into the game until it has a chance to change. The thing is that if you do not play...

    I guess they realize that ratings only influence the ignorant and those are the people that need influencing.

    Grip is an infinite nightmare. You aren't even at the point of inception. Just enjoy the nightmare.

    This is in part how I learned. But I think I went a bit too far to the technical side and have been thinking about how to reintroduce balance. When I resume coaching I will think more like this.

    This is an all time great post.
  11. TB ALC vs IF ALC (Koto vs Limba)

    Sorry about your injury. I hope you get better soon. There are lots of opinions online (admittedly not from players you know but they are out there). In the end, just focus in the ball quality and the ability to create arc that fits the way you play. For me I try to combine the fact that I...
  12. TB ALC vs IF ALC (Koto vs Limba)

    You have already ordered the blades. Just test them and see what you think and then share. Usually I am okay with someone reporting their experiences using blades or rubbers or asking questions. But when it spans so many threads/posts with the same question being asked in subtly different...

    It really doesn't matter how serious he is, he is a lock for the WTTC. Liang Jingkun and Lin Gaoyuan and of course Wang Chuqin are those that really need to work.
  14. CNT Coaches Roster 2019 & Introduction of Performance Appraisal

    It isn't always about opportunity it is sometimes about choice and whether coaching is something that the women really want to do at the national level given the world involved and the kind of reward. The top women tend to have good opportunities in things other than TT qs they seem to be able...

  16. How to backhand loop a super spinny pendulum serve that comes long

    Yes, the word "rip" captures what I mean precisely. Everyone wants to rip a serve they can see (unless they don't want their opponent to stop serving it). It can be done with practice. But I wonder how much practice the OP has done. He has to try when he knows the spin.
  17. How to backhand loop a super spinny pendulum serve that comes long

    Thanks. Maybe "kill" is the wrong word, maybe I really mean "attack" but attack doesn't always convey the same sense of power.
  18. How to backhand loop a super spinny pendulum serve that comes long

    Sorry, there is a very specific target of these posts - it isn't you. Carl knows who it is and I apologize for being so broad when you gave good advice. Some people have been playing less than 2 years but cannot help themselves post on every thread about equipment, technique etc. I am not...
  19. How to backhand loop a super spinny pendulum serve that comes long

    He really isn't talking about returning it he is talking about being able to kill it the way he probably can if it comes to his forehand. Many players with good forehand and not so good or less confident even if good backhand often just want their backhand to be like their forehand and you have...
