  1. Post your latest EJ purchase

    I bought and now carry a hygrometer (level of humidity measurer) in my tt bag 😊. Too many times I go to a match and only realise quite late that the humidity is quite bad and is a big cause of my poor performance. Or at least that's what I tell myself😏. But from here on, I will know from the...
  2. Share your Racket's Photo

    Tell us about the photograhy stuff 📸 🙂. I like the cheap stuff so still stick to my A99 but lots of lenses as they are so available and inexpensive. I also stick to jpeg as raw pp takes away too much tt time 🤫
  3. The Dark Side is getting more and more tempting...

    Plus, from he tossed the ball in front of his white shirt, I lost sight of the ball.
  4. How were pendulum serves returned, before the backhand Flip was more established?

    Agree fully. Especially about lower level players today playing more varied strokes. But a big reason for that is YouTube. The average amateur players today are much more aware of advanced techniques than even in the nineties. A major feature of the 38mm was that a topspin stroke would carry its...
  5. Joola Zhou Qihao super ALC 90 or Vyzarz freeze trinity

    If you want collectible, then you don't want a blade that you are going to use. Otherwise your 3rd para basically shows where your money should go.
  6. Illegal serves solution: why not make BH serve mandatory?

    Sorry to resurrect this thread but this suggestion keeps being resurrected every few months. And every time the original suggestor forgets that not all players use a shakehand grip.
  7. Brushing the ball is useless? (World champion FangBo‘s training class)

    "I think he barely counterloops 20% of them during the matches." Do you really mean 20%? To me, that's a very significant number for a whole match.
  8. ALC vs ZLC

    The term you are looking for is 'flash to bang'. That's why a ball from a simple push from an lp ox player can arrive so much quicker than your boosted whatever.
  9. Does this guy show up in your Youtube shorts...

    Not wrong, but he puts out so many that I think that many of this demos are, 'take it or leave it'.
  10. Does this guy show up in your Youtube shorts...

    I know that there's a lot of criticism of him. However, his demonstrations are clear without having to use a voice over. That is, every player, where ever he is from, can understand what he's trying to convey.

    The bat in middle is my regular. I got some rubbers (same H3) to put on the Imperial. But now changed my mind. The one on the left I got as a bargain. I tested it with Dingtian + D09c. Beautiful, powerful Allround + bat. And I mean Allround in the general sense. From chops to fierce attacking...
  15. Doubles Serve Order and Choice of who serves first each game

    In local league, Your Game 2 is where the confusion usually stems from. Firstly, doubles are mostly played as the last match. Thus all 6 players have played their six singles and are therefore tired. So changing the order of server/receiver is usually difficult to keep track of. So for Game 2...
  16. How does Timo Boll win at his age?

    "I was wondering, if Timo was using a new blade ... his hard strokes sounded much brighter" It was probably due to microphone type and placement. But one can never be certain 🤔
  17. Best way to clean tt table?

    Only use a cleaner if there is some ingrained dirt or grease. In my experience all the cleaners take off a bit of paint when used. Best to simply use a dry towell and wipe away the dirt. If you want to use the table for a competition, use a light spray of water. Use distilled water for extra...
  18. My FIRST Day competing in Germany

    This is one of the reasons that some local leagues fought so hard to keep the 21 game.
