  1. The Pro's Equipment - Discussion!

    Double Fish has always sponsored people that never used their equipment. I remember when Chen Qi endorsed them many years ago, and even now I believe they have Lin Gaoyuan and Liu Shiwen.
  2. Japan Table Tennis League (JTTL) ... NOT T-League

    That's not how any of this works!!! The kana explains how to translate to the kanji. Without it, you could end up with the wrong translation like you have. There is no other translation of her name. Please stop telling this.
  3. Japan Table Tennis League (JTTL) ... NOT T-League

    She doesn't. Someone mistranslated her name and for some reason repeatedly used it despite it being completely wrong.
  4. What would top players Usatt rating be?

    Considering Kou Lei was at one point 2864 and his highest WR ever was 20, and Kanak's was 19 (current rating 2828), I don't think it's absurd to say players like Wang Chuqin and Lin Shidong are pushing 2900, especially players like Fan Zhendong and Ma Long.
  5. Looking for forehand hybrid rubber

    I'll give a shout out to Codexx EF 54 from Gewo which I just started using again. In the US you can get codex for like $37 on ebay, and I've always found Gewo rubbers to be quite durable despite me not taking the best care of them. Codexx EF 54 is also an older style, tackier hybrid which I feel...
  6. Fan Zhendong is joining 1. FC Saarbrücken next season

    The entire article is translated in the OP, and the ETTU appears to also believe this is true.
  7. The Pro's Equipment - Discussion!

    Franziska switches to Zyre on his FH. Lin Yun-Ju switches to Zyre on his backhand.
  8. What Best Long Pips with Sponage 0.6

    I primarily do hitting driving and will do regular blocks depending on the shot my opponent gives me. I can't say there is anything P1V can't do, but depending on what sponge thickness you go for will maximize the rubbers different strengths. OX obviously will give you the best control and...
  9. What Best Long Pips with Sponage 0.6

    P1V in 0.5 is super versatile and very effective at all ranges. I play an offensive game, but I've started doing those small chops Kim Kum Yong does close to the table and it's much more effective than traditional chop blocking if you're close to the table and it's easier to time. I've tried...
  10. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    Has coach Ueda fixed Togami? He is dominating Truls right now.
  11. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    You sometimes forget how good Mima is when she isn't blasting balls a meter over the table. 3-0 to Mima now. This is some of the most controlled play I've seen from her.
  12. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    Wang Chuqin losing 4 straight points to drop the game. Doing his best Lin Gaoyuan impression.
  13. The Pro's Equipment - Discussion!

    https://www.butterfly.co.jp/players/detail/zhang-mo.html Mo Zhang switches to Bugller
  14. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    This is extremely common for anyone that plays racket sports.
  15. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    CTTA gonna give Lin Gaoyuan the Old Yeller treatment after this performance.
  16. Looking for a rubber similar to Victas V15 sticky but tackier around the same hardness.

    Gewo Codexx EF Pro 54. Very tacky, at the hardness you want. I haven't played with V>15 Sticky yet, but I had no problem finishing points with Codexx.
  17. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    Not as big of an upset, but the Mukherjees are out as well. Kaufmann is just too strong.
  18. Is D09C the ultimate, the holy grail of rubber?

    New thread in 4 months: Is Zyre-03 the ultimate the holy grail of rubbers?
  19. The Pro's Equipment - Discussion!

    Wow, you are right! Kenji still using Dignics.
  20. The Pro's Equipment - Discussion!

    Miwa with Zyre on FH Togami; Zyre on both sides? Yoshimura with Zyre 03 on his FH as well. Did not expect Zyre to supplant Dignics this quickly.
