    hi ken, for 15 years you've been a member on TTD forum and that was your very first post? congrats! so you're looking for a short ball which carries underspin. all typical short balls are slow balls. so you're looking for a realistic slow ball with underspin which bounces twice, aha. that's...

    usage question 🤷‍♂️ On the E-Pad S, I haven't been able to edit the name (title) of a Custom Drill or a PongSmart Drill. Have you been able to do so? (and if yes so, then it'd be cool/proud :cool:to share a screenshot of it and your firmware version) While the manual v1.0 is being clear ... ...

    Physical Setup This post be about very few not so obvious 330 details/observations, noteworthy ones. Could you help me understand? I caht see a neat way to adjust the clamping height to accommodate tables of different thicknesses. While robi1 does have such a thing, the robi4 clamp tips doht...

    Pongbot Pocketable Powerbank The standby current consumption of the Omni is 0.7A, if you do supply the spec'ed 24.0V. One could operate the robot at a significantly lower out-of-spec DC supply voltage (22 20 18 16 14 ... Volts), then the current draw will be higher, so that the wattage remains...

    We all know and appreciate the versatiliy and the (by @smee0815 @olanga @cysigno enhanced 🦾) functionality of the Nova S Pro; my Nova was going strong ... until i somehow🤷‍♀️ ran tired of using it. There's nothing wrong with the Nova at such a price point, heck i am keeping 2 units (lemme call...
  10. Pongbot Nova S Pro owners' review and discussion thread

    thought that i'd post/share the following info here, even if the info is useful to Omni users (like myself) too: As you all know, i've been using my pongbots exclusively with 24V-capable pocketable powerbanks (typically based on 4x21700 batteries) ever since i got the PWEITE-manufactured...
  11. GLUE SHEETS...The Good, the Bad (and the Ugly?)

    Do you guys use "a roller/roll" or a tube or similar too, for putting the racket together? A cylindrical object without a handle, like a tube, isn't optimal because one cannot complete the rolling in a single continuous flow (process). The rollers with a handle, sold by TT-brands, are...

    Hello, from which DOM is your unit? And which exact preprogrammed drill do you mean (all specifics so that we can test the identical drill on our units)?
  13. bh flick vs (hard) bh flip

    Jeff is demonstrating nicely what i'd call a soft bh flip. It's a fun way to open up a rally. On youtube there's no tutorial or demonstration of the hard bh flip .. which is similar to the soft bh flip, just hit harder ("slapped"): EDIT: oops, there is one vid demonstrating both the bh flick...

    new video from today!
  15. bh flick vs (hard) bh flip

    using my naming convention, these are all fh flips, not fh flicks: also reiterating my claim: it is easier to do attacks on short balls with your bh (than with your fh). Coton is a wonderful example of a youngster, using it all the time as his decisive weapon; he must have grown up with this...
  16. bh flick vs (hard) bh flip

    here is a vid on executing the flip (not the flick!) on the fh side: the fh flip! Bobrow calls it the pancake flip. kinda obviously, it's nearly impossible biomechanically to brush 🖌️ a low (heavy) underspin ball with a fh flick, so by definition all fh attacks on low short balls (especially...
  17. Coton Flavien (France)

    i like his clean cool simple playing style and attitude better than Matsushima's but i enjoy watching either player, they are my two favorite players to watch. i see much of their bh technique in how i approach the bh topic, and vice versa: when i practice my bh technique, i try to learn what...

    very good answer
  19. bh flick vs (hard) bh flip

    well, what's the point of this thread? First of all, to share my amazement. It's frustrating/amazing when we deliver high-quality pushes and the opponent doesn't open up with a proper bh loop against underspin but with an aggressive flip (not flick!). It's an art to low-slap underspin balls...
  20. bh flick vs (hard) bh flip

    (( since it's biomechanically easier with the backhand (bh), we can focus on the bh version rather than the fh flip. )) Professionals only employ the bh flick ... which is a flicking bh stroke that can be applied to nospin balls, topspin balls, underspin balls, and heavy underspin balls (if...
