    So my question now is this - does it make sense when I used to tell you that you were working way too hard??? :D

    It's obvious in the video, it's obvious in the video. I think if you put the camera on to your old technique, you would see the difference.

    LOL.... don't throw the shoulder, throw the elbow. Or if the elbow hurts, don't throw the elbow, throw the wrist. It is all whip motions, you can make them smaller or larger depending on what you decide to throw.

    42andBP, Your game has improved a lot and I see that you are a lot more relaxed than I remember. The way to use more wrist or more forearm, health permitting, is to drag the stroke into the ball and let the racket continue moving (snap) after you stop your upper arm and body). So your body...

  8. Butterfly Rozena!!!

    For whatever reason, the name of this rubber keeps taking me back to Dragon Ball Super and the Super Saiyan Rose transformation.

    Film yourself sometime.

    He is not cocking his wrist, film yourself from behind looping sometime and see what it looks like.
  11. Astounding discovery

    TPS Ventus is a Japanese rubber probably from the Daiku factory that makes Stiga, TSP, Nexy etc rubbers - what you are experiencing is probably similar to how I feel when I use Nexy Karis next to H3 and a tensor - tensor is too jumpy, H3 is too slow/lacking in spin for what I like to do but...
  12. Lin Gaoyan's Style and the Poly Era

    Which "Eurojap" looper loops like this? One is sufficient. Like I said, the one thing that characterizes all the top CNT players, less so Xu Xin, is diversity of looping techniques. If anyone calls ZJK a bit more of an Euro looper, which Eurolooper loops like this? In the end, the top...

    A lot of this is fitting a square peg into a round hole. It's been known for a long time that bent elbow loops aid recovery at the cost of power. Ma Long, Zhang Jike, Wang Hao, Fan Zhendong (I am not listing Xu Xin for a reason, though I could) have a variety of forehand strokes that they...

    If he does the red line, he might be able to get close to WDCTT. I think Fort Totten plus an Uber might do the trick.

    A good coach told me that self-talk in table tennis is highly underestimated, and it is almost as important as having a good coach to talk you through a match. You can even tell yourself lies, but you have to tell yourself things that put you in the best mindset to play well, not things that...

    It's your reward for not playing the league. More seriously, I should have told you I was coming ao please forgive the oversight on my part. Was only there on Sunday.

    I am actually leaving the DC area today after having been here since Sunday. I went to meet up with friends drom TTEdge at WDTTC. Couldn't play as much as I would have liked with my arthritis but still played a decent amount. Played a young Chinese footwork and forehand guy who had one of the...
  19. New era with DHS D40+ 3 Star Balls

    Yes. And more and better rallies. No silly mistakes in serve return or third ball or rallies because of deformed balls. I think Timo's struggles with the NP40+ at competitions were really about declining form and good opponents. All those people who beat him have improved vs the field as...
  20. Bty Petr Korbel (Hungary) vs Tibhar Stratus Power Wood

    When you first use it, it feels really sharp. But it becomes duller in a week or two but still remains spinny. Some people don't like the loss of the feeling of grip but I have gotten used to it since I know play exactly the same with 3 month Karis as with brand new Karis, the 3 month Karis...
